3 Energy Transformation & Healing Open Source: In The Beginning ETHOS begins with the intention to return you back to the perfect you that you were from the first moment of life, before all the programming and negative statements set in from authority figures, siblings, playmates and life experiences. One change from the last manual to this one is: this primary, formless energy state which through manuals up to 3.0 we called Unlimited Self, we are now more properly referring to as Infinite Self. Both terms can be used interchangeably though Infinite Self is technically more correct. Infinite Self is both your personal lifeforce-energy and direct hotline to the limitlessness energy and resources of the vast energy sea we live in, are permeated with and swim through - the All-That-Is. Some people may use words such as higher self, soul or spirit to describe this piece of us, but we refer to it as a piece all of our energetic anatomy, not a religious concept, so in ETHOS we simply say Infinite Self. How Human Beings Encode What Happens To Them Human beings are remarkable computers in the way that we store, retrieve and conceptualize information. We use several different modes of encoding every experience that happens to us, whether good, bad or neutral, using our senses. We encode our experience in the brain s neural networks by what we SEE or Visually, what we HEAR Auditorally, and what we FEEL Kinesthetically. And it makes sense if we encode our experience this way, that a set of tools that includes triggers related to seen, felt and heard resources would be the best way to instantly remove the stress that living outside your Infinite Self can generate. Again, those three major coding systems: * What is Seen * What is Heard * What is Felt Page 3

4 Less often, this system includes a further two areas humans encode experience in: * What is Tasted. and. What is Smelled Our bodymind is a non-ending recorders which make note of every single event, thought and bit of information encountered in every microsecond of our lives through these three major pathways. Most people unconsciously prefer one of these systems as the dominant way that they encode information, though everyone uses all three in different times and places. In ETHOS you have your own Healing Resource Set with FOUR energetic transformation modalities that activate all 3 coding modes for easy, joyful change. First - A transformational Word you Hear one that means all things positive to every culture on the planet. Second - A Symbol you See that vibrates with the energy of transformation and opening to all cultures. Energy Coaches, Psychologists and NLP experts refer to the ways people store information as Visual, Auditory and Kinesthethic. To make sure ETHOS works for everyone, we include all of these modes in the ETHOS Triple Cue. Third A positive Feeling anchored deep within you, to release problems & power your transformations. NOTE: ETHOS is very customizable and only has a few rules. You can use this Triple Cue in any order you like but we ve found the best progression is Heard, Seen and then Felt. You re welcome to change the order to suit yourself, we ll go with that order in this tutorial. Fourth Step aside into your Infinite Self, and gather up the Gift/s awaiting you there. Optionally (more below about this) you ll have intentional phrases that work like commands given a computer to help you program in a state of Presence, with a specific intention to bring you completely into alignment with your original Infinite Self. And as a side effect, you ll shed the problem or unwanted belief / feeling / situation. Page 4

5 Used easily and quickly together, all of these tools work at the heart of core issues extremely swiftly. How? Your Infinite Self knows everything about how you work. Infinite Self is connected to the boundless energy of the Universe, is very skilled at surfacing the right resources for you to use, and it has an unlimited supply of different kinds of resources to solve every problem you ll ever be faced with. Trust it! It won t let you down, because by its very function, our Infinite, Unlimited Selves always say yes, champion us unconditionally and guide us wisely. You are reading this and I wrote it because we have become aware that we are not the full, amazing people we truly can be. We ve bought into the illusion that we are less than amazing, or are stupid, or unlucky, or other limiting beliefs that cripple and bind us from the True Brilliance that we really are. We have begun to realize this, and suspect there is something MUCH better that is meant for us. This realization means that we ve woken up and are taking responsibility for our own lives, feelings, outcomes and ultimately, the reality we create every minute. That decision brings much power, and with it, responsibility. If you re reading this, chances are you re ready for that responsibility and have decided you re ready to embody the Infinite, Unlimited You. Welcome, to the Real World. The one you re Creating, the world that we all create together, every second, right Now. Let s begin. FIRST STEP: Preliminary Fun & Easy ETHOS Meditation Super-powering ETHOS is a set of three cues that we refer to as your Triple Cue, which is related to those three ways we humans encode our experience. This short meditation will help attune you to the Triple Cue 1. Be still for a moment and ask your Infinite Self to meditate on the word YES in whatever language YOU speak. Yes is a universally positive word, in no language found does it equal a negative, and always symbolizes willingness, openness, and positivity. Repeat YES over and over. Get the feeling of Yes deep in your bones. This is your Heard, or Auditory cue. We will use the word Yes as our default cue in ETHOS because it is positive in cultures worldwide. In addition, with all ETHOS practitioners using the word Yes, the spoken cue is Page 5

6 made even stronger through our accumulated energy. ONLY IF you have significant strong aversion to the word yes, feel free to use another word that makes the most sense for you. 2. Again be still for a moment and see the image of a beautiful red rose opening into fullness. Many, many petals open outward one after the other, opening whole layers, deeper and deeper. We use an opening red rose as our Image Cue in ETHOS as again, the red rose is nearly universally regarded as a positive symbol of opening and deepening your transformative intent. ONLY IF you have significant strong aversion to seeing a red rose, use the image that makes the most sense for you a white rose or lotus or other opening flower you have strong affinity for. If you don t tend to see things well in your mind, it s perfectly okay to use a picture cut from a magazine to get you started. Here s a great time-lapse video of an opening rose: People report pulsing their cues along with the video helps tremendously when you re first learning ETHOS. Focus on a picture or video for a week of practice and you ll soon be able to see that image cue just fine without a prop. This is your Seen, or Visual cue. 3. Be still a third time with your hand over your heart. Bring into your full awareness, a feeling of complete deep relaxation and peace. This is the same kind of feeling you have after a nice warm shower or bath, after a massage or when waking up in the morning all warm, relaxed and cosy in bed. Now, make this feeling fuller and more vibrant. As you do this, gently press your heart. Amp up that wonderful deeply relaxed and peaceful feeling ten times and touch your heart gently. And again, amp it up twenty times.fifty times.eighty times a hundred times. Each time, touch your heart. You re creating an anchor to those wonderful feelings to use later. This is your Felt, or Kinesthetic cue. As with the word and image cues being made stronger the more practitioners use them, please stick with this deeply relaxed and peaceful feeling as it s the most easily evoked of the highest vibrational feelings humans tend to have, which is what you want to access to empower transformation.

7 Second Step: Installing The ETHOS Transformation Program The Transformation Program was formulated to install the ETHOS Triple Cue for future use. While we started out with acupoint holds, longer meditations and the like, we have found that these are unnecessary and merely cluttered the process. And, as we ve worked it, we have found that: THE TRANSFORMATION PROGRAM IS NOT ALWAYS NECESSARY What a difference time and practice makes in our knowledge and understanding! You can be in an emergency situation with someone and simply get them to pulse the Triple Cue and step aside into Infinite Self as you ll learn on the next page, and ETHOS will work just fine. I was on an airplane once with a hysterical lady and got her to just pulse the Triple Cue with no preamble at all, and it worked just fine to ease her flight anxiety. It is best however for regular use to run the Transformation Program with people when you can though, and certainly in any clinical or coaching situation where you might be working with a client or loved one. You only need say this Transformation Program ONCE, speaking to Infinite You that is always listening: I now set a permanent intention within my entire being that every time I SAY YES, SEE a BLOOMING ROSE and FEEL DEEP RELAXATION as my cues, I will Uncreate, Dissolve and Release ALL that is not my Infinite Self. And each time I say, see and feel my cues, I will Create, Empower and Amplify any pattern, feeling, belief or other resource that brings me INTO FULL ALIGNMENT with my Infinite Self. Each time I pulse my transformation cues, my entire being will fully, completely, safely and peacefully perform the creation and release, to the deepest layers of my being, to all aspects of my personality, past, present and future bringing all parts of me into complete alignment with Infinite Self. Thank you. And that s it. Now you have the Triple Cue installed, to use for life. Page 7

8 Third Step: Extremely Short-Form ETHOS and More On Using Your Cues Now that your Triple Cue is installed, any time you notice an unwanted pattern, discomfort or negative emotion arising, all you need do is simply focus ONLY on the emotion of that event or situation, and pulse your Yes cue, see the opening rose and bring up that feeling of deep relaxation and peace. Allow the cues to repeat or pulse until the discomfort breaks apart. That s the shortest form of ETHOS practice that there is, and I recommend you do it many times daily, along with stepping into Infinite Self over and over until you re fully there, all the time. This is a practice I do throughout every day. What do we mean by pulsing? You can think of pulsing the cue like a massage therapist working into a tight muscle (the problem). As the therapist kneads, pulses and vibrates the tissue, the tightness in the muscle breaks up and dissolves. So it is with pulsing your cues on the feelings around problems you have. To pulse your WORD cue You can either silently think Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes or say it out loud, many times in succession. About ten times is usually all it takes, though you may continue repeating as long as you like. In my research I have found that repeating the Auditory or Heard Cue aloud to be the most potent for opening your entire system to change and consciousness. Page 8

9 To pulse your IMAGE cue Close your eyes and imagine the beautiful red Rose opening, opening, opening, or keep your eyes open and see it hanging in the air in front of you. When the image cue is doing its work, its size might expand or contract. The color might change or simply come in waves of increasingly vibrant tone. The Rose might start out as a rosebud, then bloom and expand into a fully open rose. Or it may start out partially bloomed your mind will make the right choice at the time. Colors may glow more vividly, the image may lighten then darken, or even begin to rotate. Different people see the Rose pulse in different ways. Whatever you re comfortable, will work well for you. The ETHOS Opening Rose Cue video is here for you too: Page 9

10 To pulse your FEELING cue Go to the place in your body that feels the most relaxed, remember your placeholder of that relaxing warm bath, a massage etc. (that time where you felt deep relaxation before) and amp up or increase the feeling of Deep Relaxation and peace in waves, like warm water washing over your body as from a shower, or warm waves washing over you at the beach, or a sensation of warmth rolling down your body from the top of your head to the tips of your toes. One good way to pulse your Feeling cue is to bring your attention gently to the top of your head and run your attention down your body lightly and gently resting on different areas and just noticing how much more relaxed they are. Encourage your body parts to let go, breathe deep and go soft. Do this several times, like that wave washing over your body. You may notice your neck becoming increasingly more and more relaxed, or your hands or feet or legs. Zero in on the place in your body this problem creates the most sensation. It may be a clenching in the gut, tight shoulders, or simply a general feeling of anger, guilt, shame. Focus your Relaxation into that place. Your feeling might be like one of these, or something different. Honor what shows up for you. Page 11

11 Fourth Step: Short-form Transformation with ETHOS 1. Place your attention on the FEELING that the problem brings up in you. We concentrate on that characteristic feeling of the problem both to pull in and release other problems that might generate the same feeling in you, as well as to avoid delving into the B.S. our Belief Story. We re not after blow-by-blow, but a general feeling that characterizes the issue. Pulse your Triple Cue in sequence, Yes, Rose, Relaxation, as many times as it takes t o feel a shift. Notice what changes. 2. Find where Infinite Self is in your environment it s usually to one side or another, to the front or back of you. The Infinite Self is for most of us, a step or so removed from the physical body but is still attached to you as it is your lifeforce-energy. For the purpose of this tutorial, we ll say it s at your right or left side. 3. Look deeply into this space beside you, into that template of your Infinite Self. Not just with your eyes, but with your entire being. It doesn t matter if you are able to see anything physically or not. Now, in a space and consciousness of open reception, step aside, into your Infinite Self. 4. Notices what changes. Ask questions if you like. Give thanks. You are done. Fifth Step: Long-form Transformation With ETHOS 1. Place your attention on the FEELING that the problem brings up in you. We concentrate on that characteristic feeling of the problem both to pull in and release other problems that might generate the same feeling in you, as well as to avoid delving too far into the B.S. our Belief Story. 2. Place your Story in a corner, in a circle or somewhere else outside your space. My favorite way is to draw an imaginary circle around my feet as I stand on the floor and drop the dregs of my Story down into it. It s like standing in sewage! So here s what we do to get out of it: Page 12

12 3. Pulse your Triple Cue in sequence: Yes, Rose, Relaxation. Then ask: Do I wish to continue having his feeling and all that is attached to it? 4. Any answer, yes or no, is valid. If you are getting a large amount of what we call secondary gain meaning if you re getting a benefit out of having the problem, you might not want to let it go. That s fine. Be gentle with yourself and stay in a space of allowing whatever is at the moment to exist without judgment. When you come to: NO, I don t want to keep this feeling! I want to be rid of it! say: I un-create, dissolve and release all energy in this problem, mine and others, and return it wherever it belongs. I take back the energy I lost, gave away or had stolen as a result of this problem. Pulse your Triple Cue: Yes, the Rose, the feeling of Relaxation a number of times each, one after the other. Enjoy that final feeling of peace and relaxation. Notice what else changes. 5. Contrast the feeling and circumstances of your problem-self with your Infinite Self how would You, Unlimited and Infinite, FEEL about this problem? Remember, Infinite Selves don t experience Problems or Story, and might look at your issue and say Oh, that s interesting. or Ah, s/he made that choice. without any heavy emotion attached. It s a mere statement of fact an observation. This detached observation and a sense of deep joy, bliss and/or calm is a hallmark of living in your Infinite Self. Always, in all ways, in all parts of life and in all possible situations, the Infinite Self will express ease, grace and joy, and this is what you need to look for in creating an antidote to problems in your life. Look for the ease, grace and joy in and around your situation, and all else will fall into place. Take this ease and joy plus the detached point of problems being merely interesting choices, and affirm: I create, expand and amplify all patterns, feelings, beliefs and other resources that bring me into full alignment with my Infinite Self. Page 13

13 6. Activate your triple cue by saying your cue word Yes ten or more times in rapid sequence then.seeing the Rose, open, bloom or grow larger then.strongly invoking the cue feeling of deep relaxation and peace within yourself. Enjoy the blissful feeling, and notice what changes. 7. Look into the Infinite Self place beside you - what gift is just waiting for you in your Infinite Self right now? What do you most need at the present? When you have a clear sense of this gift, step into this space and into your Infinite Self, accepting and embodying the gift as you give thanks for it. Press the gift into your heart. Putting your hands over your heart will then bring the gift back to you later on, very vividly. Gifts some people have noticed include supreme self-confidence, unshakable belief, the answer to a puzzle the person had been facing, and so on. Your gift will be unique to whatever situation you ve brought to the session. Take the gift, thank Infinite Self and use it as your inner guidance dictates. 8. Affirm to yourself: I am grateful to receive and embody this gift. Thank you. Take a moment to really feel what incorporating this gift feels like. 9. Repeat the following: I un-create, dissolve and release all that is not my Infinite Self. All that is limited about this situation is flowing, flowing, going, gone. Page 14

14 10. Activate your Triple Cue by saying Yes ten or more times in rapid sequence then.seeing the Rose open, bloom or grow larger then.strongly invoking the cue feeling of deep relaxation and peace within yourself. Repeat your cues for as long as feels necessary and correct to you. Enjoy the wonderful feelings that follow 11. Observe what changes and how it feels. Both large shifts and small are equally important and valid. I advocate people keep a Bliss Journal for the purpose of recording such observations. 12. Keep a note in your Bliss Journal of where your ETHOS work went in this session. As this method is so very fast acting and simple, this will help you gain confidence that ETHOS actually can work for you. Therapists and coaches, such a journal is a great tool for your clients as well. What else can ETHOS do? How about change our entire planet? Turn the page to find out how Page 15

15 Sixth Step: ETHOS Method as a Universal Transformative Aid Infinite Self Context & Worldwide Transformative Consciousness Our Global Village ETHOS Method as a Bridge YOU When people bring ETHOS to their own issues and into their communities in the context of Infinite selfwithout-limits, worldwide transformation can occur. People begin to wake up and stay Awake. The new options living as their Infinite Selves brings them, begin to be much more attractive than staying asleep. What becomes possible when we begin to live as the Eternal Question, rather than hardening around any one true answer? What energy, space and consciousness can communities and individuals become, when the pressures of life are removed? When instant relief is available, what possibilities arise for: Individuals? Communities? Page 16

16 Our Global Village as a whole? Meditate on the unlimited possibilities in these three areas. Pulse your Triple Cue to create, empower and amplify these gifts, and to uncreate, dissolve and release anything that wouldn t allow that. Step Aside into Infinite Self, and send the benefits of your practice out to the world and anyone in need. Breathe. Be at peace Final Word Like any tool, ETHOS only works if you use it don t let this tutorial just sit on the shelf. Get in the habit of cueing and stepping into Infinite Self multiple times daily! We stand a very good chance of being able to significantly raise the awareness and consciousness of the world through personal use of ETHOS and teaching friends, family, clients, co-workers and everyone that you know. ETHOS is deliberately simple, but deceptively so. It s easy to teach because it s so simple, but it s a tremendously powerful agent for change. I encourage you to spread it as far and wide as you possibly can. Regular practice will help calm and center families, communities and in time perhaps, bring greater peace to the entire world. Get started! I d like to close with a hearty thank you to the members of the ETHOS Community who helped refine ETHOS in its first year, the hundreds of private clients who trusted ETHOS would work and generously gave sterling feedback, plus the many people worldwide who shared their perspectives in the ETHOS Community or in private .
