Overpowered by the Mind: Teaching Series, #2

By Raymond Perley

"I just wanted my mind to rest and stop going through the pain of the past and the worry of the future. Something had to change, and it did after I discovered the truth."

 

"Overpowered by your Mind" is a follow up resource to "The Power of Emotions." Once you discover where your emotional pain orginated, you can then disconnect the power between the emotion and the memories. After short term or long term suffering, your mind works against you rather that help you heal. It remembers the pain and keeps you in a loop so that traumas have long term effects.

 

• Discover how belief systems and your imagination work against you.
• Find out how being mindful and present with others can help restore your soul.
• Find out why triggers are so effective in keeping you trapped in your mind and emotions.

 

It is time to break the power that negative events created in your life. It's time to challenge old ways of thinking that have kept you from your true potential. Use the power of your mind to take you mental, emotional and spiritual life back. You are in charge of your future and what you want to experience.

Take this journey with the author as he recounts some of the most tragic events in his life and the life of his family and how he and his family was able to recover from them. He was tired of coping and want to heal from the inside-out and he found a way to heal and put the suffering and pain behind him.

Break free from mental loops.

 

• End the feeling of being trapped.
• Start using the power of you mind to see positive change.
• Create new mental patterns that usher in more happiness, joy, and peace.

Dedication

I would like to dedicate this book and teaching course to several people who impacted my life. The first person I would like to dedicate this book to is my mother. She was the most amazing, loving and sacrificially giving person I’ve ever known in my life. When I was a teenager, I learned people she trusted sexually abused her much of her childhood. I never would have guessed that she experienced such a devastating trauma by the way she gave of her life, not only to us, but to others as well. My mother volunteered as a social worker and helped many people in need. She brought laughter everywhere she went. It was amazing to see how she displayed compassion and love, and I had the privilege of knowing and being loved by such a person with this depth of love, compassion, and humor. I love you, mom. I miss you.

I dedicate this book to my father. My father was a family man in every sense of the word. Almost everything my father did centred around family. He was a dedicated, hard-working man who did his best to take care of his family, including being there financially whenever his kids needed him. He was happiest when we did things as a family, especially during the holidays when all the children and grandchildren ran around the house, creating havoc. Despite his years of inner pain that came from the regret of past decision and feeling inadequate to do more, he enjoyed many precious moments with his family. It was his love for his family that has taught me how to be a loyal family man. I love you, dad. I miss you.

I dedicate this book to an amazing woman I met outside of my family. The moment I met her, I knew there was something special about her. I didn’t admit it when I first laid eyes on her, but I fell Head over heels in love with her. She enamoured me by how she enjoyed life deeply and how she loved experiencing new things together. She called me a Ray of sunshine because I reflected a happiness and joy that caught her attention that she wanted to be a part of, and together we enjoyed the most out of life. I never would have guessed that she experienced a life altering childhood by the way she loved me, by the beautiful laughter we shared, by the way she loved life and the way she dedicated her heart to raising our children. She has the most tender and giving heart I’ve ever met. Her story and her life have become the inspiration for writing this book. I have found deeper purpose and a multitude of lives will forever change through this book because of her. Her story, our life together and our children’s experiences will be used for something good, something bigger than all of us. Me and her children forever treasure her in our hearts.

I dedicate this book to my children. Your mother and I love you deeply. As a family, we have been through a lot, and along the way, it caused each of us to experience some painful moments. We will always be there for you when you need us. I dedicate this book to each of you because each one of you played a part in shaping my future and my purpose as each one of you worked through your inner barriers and we fought side by side to find inner peace in our life.

To my two oldest children, we have shared lots of wonderful memories until your teenage years. Life has brought separation and an aching heart. I have never stopped loving you both and thought of you often. I love both of you, my beautiful daughters.

I dedicate this book to my best friend and his family. You have been there for me daily for the several months I wrote this book. We have learned to process our thoughts and emotions together. Because of your love and support, you have made this journey of healing for me possible and memorable. I will never forget the laughter we shared frequently. Your support has inspired me to take chances in my life, to grow, to face all the things that have held me back for years. I love you and your family. I look forward to sharing a prosperous future together with both of our families.

Preface

The format of the book - This is an interactive book so that the learning and the healing happen in real time and happen on the fly. The value of this book and course lays in its repeated usage, not reading it to be done quickly to move to the next chapter or next book or teaching course. I recommend you read the introduction and the first two chapters to get a sense of how to proceed for the rest of the book, and then from that point on you can skip chapters if you wish, depending on what you are feeling for that day. I wrote the format of this book to give you the flexibility of skipping pages. There may be chapters that give similar information but explained from a different perspective so that you have the freedom to use this as a personal resource.

I journaled my healing journey, and most of the books I wrote come numbered in the order in which my personal healing journey took place. You’ll be able to follow and witness my level of self-awareness unfold as you follow along in each successive book. I found it convenient to heal in this systematic pattern because different areas of my life needed to be addressed one layer at a time so that it prepared me for the next level of healing. Not only was this an effective way to walk out
