DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this book I have intentionally tried to be brief and to the point, so you can get a quick and functional introduction to the practices this book is about. By reading this manual you can safely proceed and have the trust you need for engaging in this experience. This is not a book you read for enjoyment, this is a manual. The goal for a manual is to teach you a skill or the way of doing something. This manual can teach you how be more relaxed in experiencing the pain of going into cold water, make you more relaxed and open to creative thoughts, becoming a man (or woman) of interest. You may have read many "self help books" before, you understand what the authors say and feel that they are talking to you. You might wonder why those around you do not understand your talk and you attend new seminars where you nod and smile. You may thought you were going to take permanently lodging in these mindset, you were there, you experienced the truth. Sadly you can not claim it by listening or reading any truth. Truth that lead to wisdom can be understood but to permanently claim it, is hard. This book is NOT like this. This is a book of doing. Going into the icy cold water for the first time, really stop time, there is no faking, YOU are confronted with YOU. Read the book, do the cold water first, then practicing it for a while, then do the Val stones. The experiences you have is yours, big or small, they are yours.
