Two People Essential To This Project
For 25 years Gregory Mitchell researched and developed the techniques for Biofeedback Monitoring as applied to mental development. In particular he developed techniques for monitoring the differentiation between left and right cortical hemispheres in the psychotherapeutic context. I was fortunate to work with Gregory for several years and his wide-ranging teachings are a major influence on the content of Transforming the Mind, and are also be a foundation for The New Life Course. He is now retired and his work is little known - I hope to change that.
Through my work with Gregory, I was introduced to his mother, Irene Mumford. What a family! It turned out that she too had spent her life researching and developing profound techniques for consciousness expansion that take off from the point where Gregory's work leads up to. Since her passing on in '91, I have worked hard on the materials she left and now present them in the form of the Meta-Programming course. Meta-Programming is firmly based on her work. I have edited and added to the materials as a result of my own experience and knowledge and especially, what I have learnt in supervising the work of the many students Irene originally started on the project. Irene is much loved and missed. Through the Internet I hope to introduce new students to the phenomenal practical techniques of Meta-Programming and so continue her work.
