Product Review: The PhotoReading Whole Mind System Book

 

The PhotoReading Whole Mind System book

Even the 25-minute speed read of this book will change how you appooach reading. The author presents several powerful techniques for tackling mounds of reading material. Students, layers, executives, and even book reviewers will benefit immensely from learning Scheele's PhotoReading method. Just one of the interesting techniques is to visualize a tangerine up above the top back of your head. It really gives me an overview perspective. The cover is stunning.

The PhotoReading Whole Mind Systems

Drowning in a floodtide of must-reads? Scheele offers water wings: a system whereby you can read and comprehend 25,000 words per minute. The concept uses right and left brain capacities in what is called preconscious processing, in which the mind absorbs visual information, bypassing the conscious mind, he says.

It's a five-step method. (1) Prepare mind and body into a relaxed alertness. (2) Preview or survey the material. (3) PhotoRead by using the PhotoFocus state--which, loosely said, involves gazing beyond the reading material and exposing it to the mind's "preconscious processor." (4) Activate the material by asking yourself questions while exploring the text. For creative use-papers, speeches-wait a while before this step. (5) Read the text as quickly as you can the conventional way to assure yourself that you missed nothing in steps 1-4. Step 5 will prove increasingly unnecessary.

The book has helpful icons by key parts of the text to aid fast reading and calls for help. Naturally I worked the program as I read "PhotoReading" for review-naturally!-and I found it organic, comfortable and effective surprisingly fast.
