Are you determined to change
an emotional problem, a mental problem, a psychological problem, a behavioural problem or a relationship problem,
as fast as you possibly can,
and you want to stay home? 

Is this you?

DO YOU want to get rid of bad feelings, bad memories, bad thoughts or bad behaviour?

• Did something happen in your past, or is happening in your life now, that you just can't talk about and you need help without talking about it? 

• Are you very, very stuck? And very certain that if things don't start changing, very bad things will happen? 

• Are you going through Hell? 

• Are you an emotional mess? Are you emotionally bleeding? Are you in severe emotional pain some of the time? Most of the time? All of the time? 

• Is there a lot at stake? Do you HAVE to get better? 

ARE YOU keeping a secret that is ruining your life?

• Have you given up all hope of having a better past? 

• Are you constantly haunted by terrible memories from your past? 

• Are you suffering from a recurring memory that is very traumatic and disturbing and you want to brainwash the memory away or twist it to make it more palatable? 

• Do you want to heal a wound that doesn't bleed? Do you want to resolve past conflicts and emotions? Is there a whole in you somewhere, if only you could find it? 

• Do you want to stop living with the choices you didn't know you made when you were 14? 

• Do you want to emotionally rewrite your childhood script so it can have a different ending? 

• Do you want to erase a memory or forget your past? Is there something about your past you want to change? Do you want to break free from your past? 

ARE YOU unsure what the trouble was that started all of this?

• Did you turn your feelings off a long time ago to keep yourself safe and now stuff is happening and the feels are back and you would really rather they didn't hurt? 

• Are sections of your past giant blanks or voids and you want to know why? Are you getting disturbing memories back and you want to know if they're real or not? 

• Did you have a physically-violent, emotionally-violent, sexually-violent or spiritually-violent childhood and it's affecting your life now in ways you wish it didn't? 

• Are you wondering if it's possible to stop feeling socially broken or irreversibly damaged because you're haunted by past rapes, sexual exhibitions, sexual humiliations, sexual interferences, sexual assaults, sexual coercions or sexual violence? 

HAVE YOU had enough of being a hot mess?

• Would it be nice to be able to calm down? 

• Would grounded madness be a big improvement? 

• Are you cleverly disguised as a responsible adult? 

• Do you experience extreme inner agitation and tension? 

• Do you act normal on the outside but you're the walking wounded on the inside and you want to start changing things? 

• Do you have lots of complaints and you wished it wasn't so difficult to articulate exactly what's wrong? Do you have so much to say and you just can't get the words out? 

• Do you keep doing something over and over again and it's out of control and you want to stop and you can't stop because there's something stopping you stopping? 

• Can you become enraged in the time between two heartbeats? Are you hurting another living thing with your voice or your actions and you want to stop? 

• Is the list of places you can go or people you can be with slowly but surely shrinking? 

• Can you be overwhelmed by panic in the most ordinary of circumstances and you want to change it? Does getting into a car, bus, train or plane freak you out and it's time it didn't? Does leaving the house or going shopping freak you out and it's time it didn't? Do you have to pace? Do the second and third and fourth thoughts rush in and tumble over each other before the first one has a chance to finish? Do you get highly anxious or agitated in certain circumstances and you have to escape? Wondering why you can't be at peace like everyone else? 

DO YOU wake up to a rainbow of failure?

• Do you want to feel expensive again?

• Do you want to make it Christmas in the trailer park? 

• Is your life in the bargain basement and you want to start heading upstairs? Do you hate who you've become and what you do and it's time for a change? Are you secretly ashamed of what's going on inside you? Do you starve yourself or stuff yourself (or both) and you want to change it? Is all you want for Christmas a fast metabolism and a thigh gap? Do you rip yourself apart on the inside and cut yourself on the outside and you want to stop? 

DO YOU have to be drunk or drugged all the time?

• Is rehab for quitters? 

• Are withdrawals God's way of saying "You're still my bitch"? 

• Do you wish it was possible to just inhabit your own brain and not have to silence it with cloudiness? Want to sleep sober but the carnival of characters in your head won't let you? Have you ridden a tidal wave of alcohol on a surfboard made of "I don't care"? 

ARE YOU terrified to go to sleep?

• Have you had many lost nights that you've buried deep, deep away? 

• Are there lots of black things trapped in the dark behind your eyes? 

• Are you terrified to wake up? Is waking up in a death sweat an ordinary bad night for you? 

• Did you go away to war and you saw some bad shit and you did some bad shit and now you're back and a new war is raging inside you and you need to find some peace somehow? Are the flashbacks and nightmares and panic getting to the point where you can't take it any more? Is the twitching and shouting in your sleep freaking out your partner? 

ARE YOU obsessed with a former partner and you want to let go?

• Have relationships been a disaster area for you and you want to change it for next time? 

• Does your partner have a problem and you have a problem with your partner's problem? 

• Are you trapped in a dying relationship? Don't know whether to stay or leave? Want out but don't know how? Lots of issues that are hurting the relationship? Just about to separate or divorce? 

• Do you refuse to believe love is for the young? 

• Is intimacy something you want and fear, and you want the fear to get smaller? 

ARE YOU living to die?

• Do you have a black heart of coal? 

• Is life a dream that keeps you from sleeping? 

• Have things got worse and worse over a long period of time and you're scared you're eventually going to kill yourself? 

• Do you want to take an axe to the next person who says "cheer up", "smile", "endure", "just tough it up", "try to be happy", "take it one day at a time", "take small steps", "you should be over it by now"? 

• Do you wish 'pain' was an accurate description of what's going on inside you, rather than 'ultrapain'? Is your pain not able to be measured? Are you wondering what's worse, being in so much pain that: 1) you're scared you might die, or 2) you're scared you might not? 

• Are you not quite dead but pretty fucking numb? Is it difficult to know whether you're alive and dreaming, or dead and remembering? In a very dark place at the bottom of your hole and you just want to stay there until nothing matters? At your worst moment - mentally, physically and emotionally? Finding it hard to fight for life and you wish it was easier? Are you doing EVERYTHING you can not to die? Do you feel as if there's no way out, no hope and no chance of an end to your suffering? Are you spending all your time planning your suicide? Are you at the point where it's change or die? Do you have even a teensy-weensy hope that someone, somewhere could show you how to save your life? Would you be surprised to learn that you can turn weapons of self-destruction into weapons of self? 

IS YOUR IQ in freefall?

• Sick of the advertising running in your head? 

• Do you just want your mind to stop going wild piggy on you? 

• Are you highly-intelligent, highly-educated and highly-miserable and two out of three ain't bad? Are you a nerd or a geek and maybe one day you'll be a nerdfighter but right now you want to reformat your brain because there are ghosts in the machine that have to go? 

• Are you a highly-paid executive and you're living a lie and you want to change things fast before people start finding out? 

ARE THERE some things pills can't fix?

• Are all the pills fucking with your brain? 

• Sick of everyone telling you what you already know? 

• Do you wish there was a pill marketed as "fast emotional pain relief"? 

• Have you already changed a lot and been successful and now you've hit a wall? 

• Are you going to bring the fire of a thousand suns to burn the next person who suggests another fucking self-help book? 

• Have you been diagnosed with a mental disorder or mental illness (or other fantasy) and taken a lot of pills and done a ton of therapy and you're as miserable as ever and you're sick of it? 

HAVE YOU been buttfucked by fortune once too often?

• Wondering why bad things keep happening to you? 

• Does the world seem uncanny or sinister? 

• Have you realised something about yourself or the world that explains a feeling of pervasive dread? Are you bothered by people looking at you, talking about you or judging you? Do you hear voices that other people don't hear and they bother you? Do you see things that other people don't see and what you see bothers you? 

DO YOU just want to live a little?

• Trying to decide what despair smells like? 

• Think you picked the wrong time to be a human being? Do you feel emotionally doomed? 

• Has the Rapture been and gone and you were left behind? 

• Did someone crush your soul and put out the light in your dark world? 

• Are you just another soul with feelings but there's nobody there to feel the pain? 

• Do you wish you could have an out-of-body experience just so you could talk to yourself about what you're doing with your life? 

• Do you want to experiment with giving up on someone else's dream for you? 

• Do you schlep around the house everyday in sweatpants and disappointment and it's time the Fun Bus started stopping outside? 

• Would you love to get to the place where you can't be bothered to be anyone other than yourself? 

• Are your parents driving you crazy and you've started looking for nursing homes with the highest rates of elder abuse? 

• Have you been crying every day for 20 years and you don't want to do it for the next 20? 

• Were you in a bad accident and you want to stop replaying it? 

• Did someone check out on you years ago and it carved a giant hole in your life and they're there right now in the lines on your face, filling your house up with their "gone" and you wish it still didn't feel like yesterday? 

• Have you put your happiness on hold for way too long and now it's time for "Go ahead, Caller"? 

ARE YOU at a critical crossroads in your life?

• Have you made a decision to reduce stress in your life? 

• Have you, perhaps surprisingly, reached a point in your life where it seems you need to seek out some sort of "helping professional"? 

• Going through a very difficult time in your life's circumstances? Has a lot of life happened to you recently and things are spiralling out of control? Does it feel like you're stuck on the fast train to Crazyville and you want to get off? Really nervous about a big life-changing event? 

• Need help re-discovering yourself? Need help making peace with your past? Need a new way to look at problems in your life? Need to step beyond your normal thought patterns and don't know how? Want to break through some bad patterns into a better understanding of yourself and those around you? Want to know why you think, remember, feel and act the way you do?

• Unsure where to turn next? No clue what to do? Don't know anymore how to get back to where you once have been? Does absolutely no one around you understand what you're going through? Rarely talk to anyone about what's going on inside you? Have nobody to turn to for advice, or no one safe to turn to? Considering getting some extra guidance and support? Searching for a voice of reason and empathy? Need a good laugh? 

Yes? ...

Dear: Friend-I-haven't-met-yet
From: Owen Pearn
Subject: Your future

I know how tough this stuff can be.

I can help.

You get to stay home. We'll work via Skype. It doesn't matter where you are in the world.

You can tell me anything, but you don't HAVE to tell me anything. I can teach you how to change stuff without having to know any of the details.

Anyway, imagine you're on two journeys...

... one of them ends here

... and one of them starts here:

About you and me and time and money

Most of the folks I've worked with are between 45 and 65. You have to be at least 18.

It's okay to lie to me. It's impossible to offend me.

I work very differently from most other helping professionals. I often start where others finish. If you want, I'll make lots of space, very quickly. I cannot heal you or fix you. You're not broken. I'm not a healer.

I work completely outside the medical system. I do not report to any insurance companies or government agencies (either in your country or mine).

I like doing 90-minute sessions (plus or minus). I charge by the session, not by the hour.

Fees: 170 Australian per session (about 175 US Dollars).

I work with people all over the world in a very wide range of financial circumstances so I do sessions ranging from full-fee to small-fee. If you're willing to work and you're "less than financial at the moment", contact me and we can work something out. I make myself the most available (often at very short notice) to folks paying full-fee.

I'm quite happy to chat at no cost to you for 30 minutes or so, and then you can decide if you want to take things further. Your first step is to do your Secret Survey (All About You).

11. 6 Common FasterEFT Mistakes And How To Avoid Them (39 mins)

• We spend 99% of our time in trances so we can successfully operate in the world. 
• The more strongly we believe a painful trance, the more it hurts. 
• A trance is a "crossing over". Are you: 
•   1) crossing over everywhere, except where you need to go? 
•   2) constantly crossed over to bad trances? 
•   3) not crossing back soon enough? 
•   4) not crossing over at all? 
•   5) crossing back, but not crossing over? 
•   6) crossing over and back once, and you think you're finished? 
• Part of the price of change is giving up some certainty about some of what you believe to be true.

I never dreamed I'd be a counsellor

The short version is: I used to find life really difficult and now I don't.

I've been to Hell and the view wasn't that great and all I brought back was a lousy teeshirt and transcendent emotional freedom. Read about it here.
