1
the key to visualization that's what this video will be about
2
when we say visualization when the gurus
3
and the teachers tell us to visualize we automatically assume
4
that this means to close your eyes
5
and see the final result see yourself living in the end yes yes of course this is part of it
6
but what if you struggle with seeing the goal what
7
if you struggle with focusing visually on an image
8
or a scene in your mind
9
and allowing it to play out for any amount of time you would be
10
so quick to assume that this technique is not applicable to you
11
but it's not that visualization doesn't work for you it's just
12
that we have yet to understand the real purpose of visualization
13
which is immersion the point of visualization is to immerse yourself in a completely new
14
and preferred reality to the point
15
that it feels certain to you as certain as your physical
16
3d reality feels to you right now the reason why our physical 3d reality feels
17
so real to us is because we are observing it with more than just our sense of sight.
18
We can hear this reality.
19
We can feel this reality.
20
This reality has a smell and a taste.
21
The phone or the device that you are currently using to watch this video, can you not feel the weight of it,
22
the texture of it can you not hear my voice clearly depending on where you are seated laying
23
or standing you can feel the environment around you now close
24
your eyes can you still not feel the device you're currently
25
using can you still hear my voice depending on where you're seated laying
26
or can you still not feel the environment around you?
27
Wouldn't it be accurate to say you are currently experiencing this reality even though you cannot see it?
28
All visualization really is, is the observation and the experience of another reality.
29
And we experience reality through our senses only
30
but not only through the sense of sight so
31
if you're struggling with visualization perhaps you've become too dependent on
32
what you can see in this case it may be best to practice visualization
33
while focusing on what you can feel hear and smell
34
if i have failed to clarify this idea perhaps this audio
35
recording of neville goddard himself could now prayer as far as
36
i'm concerned is nothing more than the subjective appropriation of the objective hope
37
that is the way to success i appropriate it subjectively how do i appropriate a state subjectively
38
well suppose now this very moment I wanted a ball an ordinary baseball
39
but there isn't a baseball in the room all right
40
but I want one I would actually assume
41
that I am holding a baseball in my hand until I
42
could feel it you think you can't feel it well I'll
43
try it try to feel what it would be like
44
if you held a baseball now to prove
45
that you have held it see what it feels like the difference now a tennis ball see any difference
46
all right a golf ball see any difference a piece of silk you feel any difference
47
if you can distinguish between these many objects those they are subjective then they must exist somewhere
48
if you can actually separate them in your mind's
49
and distinguish between these objects I can begin to feel begin
50
to sense begin to smell a rose well a rose doesn't smell
51
or doesn't actually have the odor of another flower I can
52
detect the rose now a lily an Easter lily I can detect
53
that but what does it do well i'm going to get them
54
someone will think of neville and send him a flower
55
And it's going to be the flower that I'm going to actually feel and touch and smell.
56
It works that way.
57
Money has an odor.
58
It's unlike any odor in the world.
59
It's more fragrant to the miser than the most marvelous perfume in the world.
60
He can tell it.
61
You put a money bag to his face and it's like putting roses to mine.
62
He loves it.
63
He can smell money.
64
He can feel it money has a distinct feel about it put a twenty dollar bill in your hand
65
and ask you to feel it
66
and then put another piece of paper in your hand and you can tell the difference
67
there's a difference it is an odor to it all this is part of the inner man
68
that all things are possible to him try it before you condemn it try it so in summation
69
if you are struggling to visualize your ideals the money you
70
want the beautiful partner your ideal gorgeous body the fabulous car
71
whatever it may be try relying on your other senses your
72
other senses beyond sight to experience these things the person of
73
your dreams what do they feel like touch them different parts of them yes i am telling you to do
74
that do that what do they feel like your ideal body touch your perfect tummy
75
or whatever it is close your eyes and visualize what it must feel like literally the car that you want
76
what does that steering wheel feel like what does the new car smell smell like
77
when you step into the car
78
and you lock the door there's a sound what does
79
that sound like and
80
when you're inside of the car what are you hearing once you're inside is it silent
81

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
