GARY'S HISTORY AND

HOW THE PALACE OF POSSIBILITIES CAME TO BE

I was born in 1940 -- an only child -- with two "blue collar" parents. My mom gave birth to me at age 16 and dropped out of high school to do so. At the time, my father was working in a car wash. No one in my family (grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc.) had any athletic skills and none had ever been to college and, in fact, the word "college" wasn't even in our vocabulary. It was considered an out-of-reach achievement that was for "other people." No need to even think about that.

Just get a job and exist.

Nonetheless, while using The Palace of Possibilities without knowing how (yet), I rose above the weight of my family's beliefs. I set several track records in junior high school (grades 7, 8 and 9) and in high school was voted the Football Player of the Year for the State of California. My football achievements were so impressive that I was offered full scholarships to 22 major US universities (examples: USC, UCLA, Cal, Army, Navy, Air Force, numerous Big 10 schools in the eastern part of the US -- and Stanford).

I chose Stanford.

They welcomed me in even though my high school grades (B+) were nowhere near good enough to qualify for Stanford's normal high standards (A). Still, I managed to earn a degree in Engineering. Also, I was a little guy in a big man's game. I weighed only 165 pounds (75 kg) while most of the players outweighed me by 50 to 100+ pounds (23 to 46+ kg). Despite my disadvantages, I played first string every year at Stanford.

Interestingly, I never considered any of this out of reach or beyond my abilities. Rather, it was all within my expectations. In hindsight, I know why and that is part of what I will be sharing with you as we unfold The Palace of Possibilities.

I then entered the business world (insurance and investments) and, using the same skillset as above, raised my annual income in 1965 from $18,000 to more than $400,000 by 1973. Also, in the late 1960s I lost 30 pounds (14kg)... from 190 to 160... without involving any willpower whatsoever.

In 1995, I discovered another world; a world that brought remarkable relief to emotional issues in far less time than conventional therapy. This method continues to spread worldwide, revolutionizing the way we heal. I called the process Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) and several million people downloaded my original book, The EFT Manual. That book has been upgraded to The Gold Standard EFT Tapping Tutorial (free in our materials). Others, however, have tried to imitate the original book by writing their own books called The EFT Manual.

I soon began to notice that clearing out our emotional baggage with EFT simultaneously reduced, or eliminated, physical pains, diseases and ailments WITHOUT using drugs, surgeries, radiation or other conventional means. Resolving these emotional causes to our issues with EFT has produced stunning healing results for millions of people worldwide. This mind/body connection became a fundamental element of the even more elegant form of EFT yet to come.

In 2014, I introduced Optimal EFT (OEFT), an advancement which formally incorporates the power of our "spiritual healer within." I decided to refer to this loving essence, known by many names, as The Unseen Therapist so as not to interfere with anyone's religious preferences. While OEFT utilizes the same foundational structure as EFT tapping, we replace physical tapping by inviting The Unseen Therapist to heal the specific negative emotion or self-limiting belief in a way that serves us best. This innovation has made the process deeper, broader, and more efficient than EFT Tapping, resulting in many “Impossible Healings” which you will find described within this website.

Opening ourselves up to these “Impossible Healings” — in every area of our life — is a primary focus of The Palace of Possibilities. But hoping and wishing for these outcomes is not enough. It takes courage to look at what might be considered for some a very new way of thinking (or NewThink) about who we truly are and the staggering capabilities that go along with that.

All rooms in the Palace are open to us, but continuing to believe what we’ve always believed will only cause us to continue to sabotage our best efforts to heal, imposing self-induced limits on what we are able to achieve. This applies not only to our desire for vibrant health, but to any of our other lofty aspirations, be it the ability to earn a substantial salary, attain a prestigious position in business, or raise our performance on the golf course.

I have long had the desire to introduce the concepts put forth by The Palace of Possibilities, but felt that many people would not be open or ready to accept many of the spiritual themes outlined herein. Although readiness may still be a factor, I have felt guided by my own inner teacher to move these healing concepts forward at this time. While it takes a lot of practice, as does most anything considered worthwhile, it’s all learnable by anyone willing to put in the effort. All the details, including updates, are laid before you in these pages.

Taking that leap of faith is how I’ve lived my life. Perhaps you are ready to take that same leap and explore the many magnificent rooms in your own Palace of Possibilities.

e-hugs, Gary
