This was posted back in 06.  I like to read and do book reports on what I'm reading, so this was an aborted work in progress.  I think my eldest daughter put it in the drafts folder when she wanted to use the computer, and I didn't realize that it hadn't been finished or posted...until later. Sorry for the break-off at the end.

Somehow, this post was in my Drafts folder, not having been sent, and not even finished....  I don't remember what I was going to say....  from that long ago, but thought I'd go ahead and finish sending it, on the chance that it may be helpful to someone.

4/13/006 Yesterday, I received the latest in my series of reading adventures; an incredible book called A Revolutionary Way of Thinking by Dr.  Charles Krebs.

I had heard about it, but didn't know what to expect, as I've read a lot on the work of another Krebs who dealt with homeopathic remedies, so didn't know if this was related or not.  Not.

This book is about a scientist who was injured in a diving expedition, and was paralyzed and was probably the longest person to ever live in a decompression chamber.  Because of his paralysis, he drew on his previous knowledge of Chi through his Karate training, and decided to become proactive in his healing.  He went from being diagnosed in the HBO chamber as a Quad, to coming out as a paraplegic, and taught himself to walk again.

He goes through the history of Kinesiology, how Goodheart put different pieces together, to create the initial AK system, then how other people have contributed and changed it into what it has branched out to be.  Some of this is pretty fascinating stuff!  I read from 8pm or so, and I'm already

111 pages into this 413 page book.

Around page 57 or so, he discusses a Dr.  Paul Dennison, a Chiropractor who was very dyslexic, and began learning Thie's Touch for Health, and developed it into the Brain Gym program that he now teaches.

He discusses improper coordination of brain activity, and the use of cross-crawl and homolateral crawl to help reintegrate the brain's functions.

I'm thinking that if one had a laser, or two, that one could possibly use the Brain program #16 on the Cerebellum, and the #3 Neuro-Reeducation program on the cervical - WHILE the person was doing these exercises, and really expedite and stabilize progress made effectively to the brain's efficiency.

Krebs spends a bit of time going over hand modes from Beardall which I've always been interested in.

Thumb to Index finger responds to Structural Stress

Thumb to Middle finger responds to Nutritional Stress

Thumb to Ring finger responds to Emotional Stress and

Thumb to Little finger responds to Energetic stresses such as Chi meridian imbalances.

One new method he discusses is something called ESR Emotional Stress Defusion.  He has a little scenario that he describes how ESR might work.

Test in the clear.  (strong) Have client/patient think of something particularly stressful.  Muscletest unresolved subconscious stress around issue.  (weak) Kinesiologist then touches ESD points on forehead and retests muscle.(strong)  He explains this phenomena as the stress creating a frequency of imbalance.  Holding the ESD points on the forehead also activates a frequency.  If the frequency of the stress matches the frequency of the ESD points, the muscle will now lock strong.  This is like tuning the radio into a particular frequency.  Once the frequency of the station becomes one with the frequency of the radio, there is music.  When the frequency of the thought is that of the emotional imbalance, it will match the frequency of the ESD points which will cause the change in the muscle response.

He then goes into how to determine when this emotional stress presented itself (similar to the NET method)  going through the age groups so the limbic brain can inspect all her experiences, and assess how they relate to the current issue.  Similar to NET as well, the book tries to pinpoint the WHO that may be involved.  Then, checking the meridians for what may be involved, the touching

(I broke off there, so not sure what my thought process was while writing, but thought this was interesting.)
