This visualisation started life as one of the components of the Unleash the Book Inside workshop and home study course.
In the workshops, I found that the students started to get huge flashes of inspiration when I combined Mind Mapping with simple simple contemplative and meditative techniques.
This version of the visualisation is more generic such that you can use it on any Mind Map whether hand drawn or computer generated. Note though, if you do use software Mind Mapping, it’s a good idea to use a print out first. This visualisation takes a Mind Map and embeds it into your cellular neurology such that two things start to happen.
Firstly, you commit it to memory much better.
Secondly that you become better at noticing coincidences and serendipities associated with elements on the map. For example, if your map contains your goals and ambitions for the year, you start to become luckier. If you are writing a book, you come across information and ideas that help you in ways that seem uncanny.
I do this before I do a talk. Firstly, I Mind Map the talk some days before and I seal it in my neurology at the time. Then just before I go into the event, I repeat the visualisation – works every time.
Amy is an amazingly creative soul on a spiritual quest to contribute towards the balancing of the masculine and the feminine through sharing the wisdom of the goddess.
She is a writer, photographer, academic, teacher, spiritual seeker, home-educating mother of 3.
Although she plays all these many roles in my life, but the thread that runs through each is the sacred feminine.

Elizabeth Villani is an expert on positivity, she is a qualified coach and Reiki Master who runs her own successful development business Courageous Success. She experienced her own awakening in 2003 when she woke up and jumped off the London treadmill. A startling mystical experience in late 2008 revealed to her the reality of humanity and now she writes to support our awakening.
Her book, Awakening, is a book of our time. We have spent the last decades collecting the cars, the house, the image, and now we are reaching for whats next. We numb our worlds with wall to wall TV and an endless busyness that exhausts and shadows who we really are. When we stop, we long to maintain the stillness and enjoyment that we find.

The Quantum Collapse of Thought
Many people say they have trouble making their mind go quiet in meditation – well if you’ve ever driven anywhere and not known how you got to the other end, you have unwittingly entered a meditative state. This visualisation, which is not to be listened to while driving, will teach you a foolproof technique – enjoy.

I count myself as being very lucky to be able to do work which I love. I’ll be the first to admit that it’s at least 50% by ‘chance’ that I ended up in this position.
If you met me just a few years ago, you would have met a bored IT consultant … now I’m an author with four books to my name and fast becoming known as a specialist at the art and science of light bulb moments.
Along the way too, I’ve been blessed to meet many special people who have achieved this nirvana themselves. Earlier this year, I was absolutely honoured to meet up with Judith Morgan who turned out to be a specialist in helping people achieve this very goal.
Judith’s running a workshop for Alternatives in London on the 6th November and you can hear us chatting about how to go about running your own “toptastic” business here.

Esta opinión es de: The Art and Science of Light Bulb Moments (Tapa blanda)
‘The Art and Science of Light Bulb Moments’ de Tom Evans es un libro muy especial. La lectura genera una energía positiva extraordinaria que lleva al lector a reflexionar acerca de lo habitual, a intercambiar ideas con los demás y a plantearse vías alternativas.
El libro se dirige a todos aquellos que creen en la posibilidad de influir en su entorno a través de sus propias ideas, independientemente de su ámbito profesional y social. La condición para ello es poder generar ideas que tienen el potencial de cambio.
Tom Evans está convencido de que todo el mundo puede tener estos ‘Momentos de Eureka’. Que pueden ser inducidos. Y que tenerlos depende de factores que podemos manipular. Estas premisas son la base de la primera parte del libro, en la que describe justamente estos factores. El autor presenta sugerencias y propuestas de cómo inducir situaciones especialmente favorables para tener “grandes ideas”. Pero no basta con tener una gran idea. Es igualmente importante saber aprovecharla. Esta reflexión es el punto de partida de la segunda parte del libro, en la que el autor introduce diferentes técnicas y enfoques que ayudan a definir un planteamiento de proyecto en base a una idea para poder hacerla realidad. Para ello, se apoya en varios autores y enfoques como el ‘Mind Mapping’ de T. Buna, los ‘Six Thinking Hats’ de E. de Bono y las estrategias creativas de Walt Disney.
Tom Evans describe en este libro su filosofía y forma de vivir mediante ejemplos prácticos de ámbitos muy variados. El ofrece interpretaciones y explicaciones para algunos fenómenos que de vez en cuando son – cuanto menos – sorprendentes. El mismo comenta que no se trata de comprenderlos lógicamente o de creerlos, sino que su objetivo es llevar al lector a probar sus sugerencias y propuestas y que compruebe si para el mismo funcionan no.
Para entender las ideas que transmite este libro es imprescindible tener una mente abierta. Además hace falta curiosidad y coraje para plantarse sus ideas propias y hacerlas realidad. Tom Evans invita a sus lectores a ello y sugiere cómo hacerlo.

In this enlightening interview, Liz Villani talks about how light bulb moments can be the seed of an awakening.
