Origins & Applications of MetaMind®
MetaMind® is a programme of: psychological services, including, psychotherapy, psychological training and mentoring, for holistic Mind re-programming which usurps CBT, intended to aid individuals to improve their: thinking, attitudes, perspective, health and wellness (treatment of depression, stress management) happiness and performance with a view to, not only surviving, but also thriving, “The Quickening”. The Quickening being the continually increasing: demands, challenges, changes, complexities and uncertainties of life. The objects are to reduce stress whilst increasing: health, wellness, happiness, performance, success and hopefully prosperity.
MetaMind® is a registered Trade Mark of Dr Michael Fullam-Stone. MetaMind®, and is a programme with its seed first sewn during his teacher training in the UK.
The Spark was fully Ignited while teaching at the University of New England, Michael studied Alpha Dynamics and applied it to overcome arthritis, specifically, Defuse Idiopathic Skeletal Hyperostosis (DISH) and Bursitis, which he had suffered from for 20 years. The result was so successful and enduring, that Michael saw the opportunity to apply it to raising performance, whilst reducing human stress, in the workplace. He then coined the term MetaMind®, meaning with and beyond the mind. Then commenced doctoral research at Deacon University. Since then, the programme and teaching material have evolved in scope, content and application.
On meeting the British author of a book on the drug treatment of depression and their side effects, Michael expanded his loci of application to more health issues.
MetaMind® Programme Methodology
MetaMind® is a philosophical and psychological concept and a means to MIND development, to enable improvements in holistic (physiological, psychological, emotional and intellectual) health.
Michael teaches that of these four facets as the four pillars of support, like legs of a table. If one pillar (leg) is weak, holistic strength and stability are compromised. Consequently, holistic health, necessary for high performance, necessitates all four facets (like legs of a table) that are strengthened and optimised. MetaMind® focuses on strengthening all four facets, for holistic health.
This is achieved through editing the mind (OS code) whilst exploiting altered states of consciousness. However, it should be appreciated that this is not a single event, but requires repetition.
MetaMind® Training can be general, or specific to a particular need. I consider the best approach is to undergo generic training which can then be applied as you wish to serve specific needs, for example health or performance.
Conditions to Which the Methodology May be Applied for Benefit
- Insomnia, tension, anxiety, stress, depression, grief, procrastination, trauma, obsessions,
Low: concentrations, self-esteem, self-confidence, stage fright, etc.
Performance Activities Which May Benefit from Self-Treatment and Productivity
- Thinking and attitude development (Self-Improvement or Change).
- Learning and recall (memory) accelerated or meta-learning, study skills and examination technique.
- Thinking Styles including, analysis, advanced goal setting and accomplishment.
- Overcoming barriers and procrastination, breaking barriers and mindset constraints, setting new presidents and raising performance.
- Focus, concentration, dedication, application, persistence, resilience, single mindedness and self-control.
- Perceptions, visualisation, innovation, problems solving, issue and conflict resolution.
- Communications, relationships, empathy, recognising symbiosis, co-operation, collaboration and synergy.
- Competition for business, grants, careers, sports, new records, etc. and much more.
The Applied Gear Analogy / Mindset Shift Affect
Personal computers mostly have one cpu clock rate speed, but the brain has infinitely variable speeds, not just overall, because that is aggregated but also in different zones. You’ll learn to alter your state of consciousness to optimise brain frequency (speed) that best suit your primary activity at the time. I make the analogy: If you have been driving a car all your life in first gear, and then discover it has six speeds, and a reverse, this will greatly empower you to increase efficiency and effectiveness. Similarly, with controlling brain frequency (speed) to best suit function, e.g., for learning, recall and healing.
Significance of Colours in the Logo
There are 8 Colours of light that are significant. Actually, 7 colours of the rainbow, but when combined, they produce white (no. 8): The 8 colours fall into 2 groups, as below. Four therapy colours and 4 colours representing desired rewards. The 4 therapy colours are incorporated into the logo, a dynamic ying and yang type symbol.
Therapeutic colours are
Plains of Existence
| Colour | Red | Orange | Yellow | White (Combined) |
| Represents | Physical | Emotional | Intellectual | Spiritual |
Reward for Attainment colours are
| Colour | Green | Blue | Violet | Purple |
| Represents Rewards | Peace | Love Sincerity | Harmony with all | Aspiration |
