Home-Study Courses to Enhance Intelligence and Creativity
Research has been done on the brain for many years. The most important point to come from this has been that one side of the brain tends to become cut off from the other, as painful memories and feelings are repressed. For most people, one side will dominate according to what sort of abilities and aptitudes they have, and the cultural influences of their upbringing. Furthermore, unconscious blocks can freeze huge proportions of our mental energy, and this can cause a person to feel negative, angry or depressed for no apparent reason.

We have identified the causes of such barriers and over the course of many years have refined our techniques for helping individuals to achieve their potential mental capacity. The cognitive enhancement techniques of Mind Development make the mind much more efficient because they open up the pathways of left-right brain communication and assist the person to regain all of their positive mental energy. They can then obtain the goals they want and take control of their destiny.

A course in Mind Development can benefit you in a number of ways, depending on what areas you feel you are weak at, or what you want to change about yourself and your capabilities. If you do these courses you should expect to see stable improvements in your career and abilities. You should have better judgment, increased mental speed and will power, better self-expression, the ability to study effectively and recall what you have learned, more creative insights, and confidence in your capacity to achieve your personal goals in life.

The hardware of the human computer is the brain; the software is the person's mind; the programmer is the human spirit. The aim of Mind Development is to awaken people to their innate powers of mind. To achieve this it is necessary to improve introspective awareness and in particular to regain awareness of mental processes that are normally sub-cognitive, so that the person is in touch with his full knowledge base and can access it intuitively. This kind of metacognition ('knowing what you know') is formally described as mature intuition. In this way, the person becomes awakened as the "meta-programmer" of his mind. Of course, the ends to which such awakened powers are applied lie within the hands of each student. There are many ways in which we can begin to make our lives count and improve the lot of Mankind.

As long as we are depending on safe solutions, prejudiced judgments and fixed ideas, our mind is closed to inspecting anew, to discovering our own truth. Those mental structures affect the way that we feel and act, and filter our perception so that we are unlikely to notice the message of nature and we are likely to distort the meaning of the song in our heart.

It's Catch-22. The beauty of nature is often just what we need to remind us that our problems are exaggerated in our minds; and the gut feelings we have, if listened to, bring us back to the reality of our core instincts and intuitive sense.

So actually we need both, the intellect and the heart. And to move forward in our lives, we need the two well integrated and cleared of distortions, misperceptions and limitations. Our genuine feelings need to be released and our beliefs re-examined - so that we act from inspiration, not from the dictates of earlier conditioning.

The two work hand-in-hand. Rationality does not necessarily mean masculine insensitivity, and heart intelligence is not just for the naïve. Feelings and relationships need focus and direction, and action needs an empathic understanding of context. Objectivity in the light of love is the means.

NOTE by the publisher, Peter Shepherd
For 30 years Gregory Mitchell researched and developed the techniques for developing mental capacities such as memory, speed reading, enhanced intuition and creativity, and increased IQ. Yes, IQ certainly can be dramatically increased using his methods, with profound implications!

Emotional maturity is an equally important factor as IQ for happiness and social success, and Mind Development courses work in a balanced way to develop emotional intelligence as well, but there is no substitute for the brilliance of a quick and insightful mind, and that is the area for which these courses offer the best tools to help you excel.

Gregory ran group courses for many years in London that successfully applied his research. I was fortunate to work with him for several years during that time - his wide-ranging teachings are a major influence on the content of my book Transforming the Mind and are a foundation for the personal growth course I developed, Start a New Life!, which is included as a bonus with the MD Courses Value Package.

Gregory Mitchell went on to research at the most advanced levels of Mind Development and discovered many further important insights. The latest research by cognitive scientists is only now begining to uncover the ideas and methods that Gregory had been working with for 30 years!

Before he retired in 1994, Gregory granted me the rights to further develop and edit his materials in order to offer a series of home-study courses through the Internet. The foundation courses are now in place, and over the next few years there will be some 12 courses in total, that will cover the complete spectrum of cognitive development.

Do please keep an eye on this Mind Development site and join in the courses. If you work hard you can completely transform your mind and as a result, your life.
