I didn't realize it till that moment, but I was starving for that kind of ​information.That book wetted my apatite for all things concerning what I came to refer to as the "human condition". Mostly because I was learning about myself. But I intuitively knew I was learning about other people too. ​​I'm now 74 years old. ​I retired in 2017 from a life of working in the ​cabinet and woodworking industry for over 30 years...among other jobs I had. ​But my secret interest was always​to know more about what made me and everyone else tick.Like so many people, I came from a broken home. Mom took my little ​brother and I away when I was eight and he was a one-year-old. ​Dad drank too much and we were always struggling in poverty. ​And I guess mom had her more personal reasons.​​ ​But even then, mom also struggled with poverty. So that's what I learned.As a result, I came up with a very low self-image and struggled in poverty. That's why when I found that TNT book, I knew I had ​found what I needed to know. And I dove into it full on.​​ Problem is, just because you know it in your head doesn't mean it translates into your life. Over the decades, I read every book I could find and attended every​ seminar and training class I could afford. From Silva Mind Control in 1974 to a ropes course high up in the trees to hypnotherapy three times and NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) training and much, much more.  Finally, in 1998, I found my psychological home...energetic psychology. ​This was the most exciting discovery so far. The many different modalities I found offered near instant changes​ in heart and mind. ​Each modality had elements I liked and didn't like. By 2014, had all the training and experience​​ I needed to take a step back and look at the big picture. I had developed my short list of criteria to form my own method. ​I wanted it to be easy to learn, quick to work and I wanted it to be covert...meaning you could do the method right out in public and no one would know you were working on your emotional self right in front of them.​​The method was basically assembled by 2015. I began to share it here and there with whoever was interested. As a result, I collected the several testimonials you see on the testimonial page here. I now have people in Canada, the UK, Germany, Australia, across the USA and even Thailand using the Core Method. Some of these people are professionals who use the Core Method in their therapy and healing practices. There has even been talk between one of my students and I about creating a certification course. Maybe that will happen too. I know if a person takes the method seriously and applies it with sincerity, ​it will change their life. All you need to start making the method work for you is in the free e-book and especially the training video. I wish you the best life has to offer. ​And now I offer you a way to get there.​​ Blessings. Jim Shane.​​
