Complete Brain Upgrade

Complete Brain Upgrade

A complete brain upgrade has five main parameters that are responsible for the resulting improvements in how you think, how you feel, how you relate, and how you perform. A complete brain upgrade changes brain processing, resets brain frequencies, re-balances brain neurotransmitters, stimulates the process of neurogenesis that creates new brain cells, and builds new brain structure that supports the higher dimension of intelligence.

Dimensions of Intelligence

At the beginning of the scientific study of intelligence in the early 20th century, the definition of intelligence was restricted to intellectual intelligence (IQ). This narrow definition of intelligence prevailed until the mid 1980’s, when emotional intelligence (EQ) was identified as another dimension of intelligence of equal, or even greater, importance. Recent advances in psychology and neuroscience have identified spiritual intelligence (SQ) as a further dimension of intelligence that is even more powerful. Both IQ and EQ are important, but they are not sufficient to maintain top performance and provide enduring fulfilment. The next dimension of intelligence is also necessary.

Spiritual Intelligence

Spiritual intelligence is an innate dimension of intelligence to which everyone has access. Spiritual intelligence is not religious. It depends not on belief but on direct personal experience. As the intelligence of the true self, beyond the ego, spiritual intelligence has many benefits that exceed the scope of intellectual intelligence and emotional intelligence. Freedom from ego grants wisdom and clarity of vision, combined with more empathy and compassion, which increases creativity and intuition, and results in greater personal fulfilment and better performance on important life skills and work skills. Spiritual intelligence therefore represents your most powerful resource for personal and professional growth and fulfilment.

Human Operating System

Twin Poles of Attention

Twin Poles of Attention

The twin poles of attention represent the basic operating system of human awareness, with the ego at the object-pole, and the true self, the soul, or consciousness itself, at the subject-pole. Shifting from the object-pole to the subject-pole creates a corresponding shift from ego to soul, which activates the spiritual dimension of intelligence.

Ego Mistake

Without understanding your operating system, you can mistakenly waste time trying to make changes at the object-pole, when the key to transformation is to shift to the subject-pole, and thus activate the advanced capabilities of the higher dimension of your intelligence. The ego does this all the time. It’s the perennial ego mistake.

The 3Q Brain Upgrade

The neuroscience of spiritual intelligence reveals that the 3Q brain upgrade changes brain processing, resets brain frequencies, re-balances brain neurotransmitters, stimulates the process of neurogenesis that creates new brain cells, and builds new brain structure that supports the higher dimension of intelligence.

The 3Q brain upgrade optimises the brain for activating three principal dimensions of intelligence simultaneously (IQ+EQ+SQ). The default setting of attention in the 3Q brain is at the subject-pole of attention, not at the object-pole of attention. The 3Q brain therefore replaces the ego with the soul, as the seat of personal identity, and as the governor of IQ and EQ. The 3Q brain uses IQ and EQ not to pursue the goals of the ego, but to express the qualities of the soul, which are experienced at the subject-pole of attention in moments of presence, in the form of wisdom, compassion, integrity, joy, love, creativity, and peace.

Brain Processing

3Q intelligence

Brain processing in the 3Q brain shifts from exclusive use of serial and parallel processing to include synchronous processing. This change in processing is associated with the combination of spiritual intelligence with intellectual intelligence and emotional intelligence.

Brain Frequencies

The 3Q brain resets brain frequencies to include gamma frequencies, which otherwise occur rarely and at random. Gamma frequencies are associated with activation of the spiritual dimension of intelligence.

Brain Neurotransmitters

The 3Q brain reduces neurotransmitters that generate fight and flight reactions, which are generally overused by the ego, and increases neurotransmitters that are associated with wellbeing and balance.

Brain Neurogenesis

The 3Q Method stimulates particular parts of the brain that are responsible for the process of neurogenesis, resulting in the generation of new brain cells that are used to strengthen existing brain networks and build new ones.

Brain Structure

The 3Q Method builds new brain structure that sustains the experience of spiritual intelligence. Consequently the more you use your 3Q, the more 3Q brain structure you create, and therefore the easier it is to activate your 3Q intelligence in any circumstances.

The 3Q Method to Activate Spiritual Intelligence

Spiritual Intelligence Portal

The 3Q Method

The 3Q Method is a simple, rapid, and highly effective three-step process that shifts from your ego to your true self, your soul, and thus activates your spiritual intelligence. The MindMaster Experience course uses the 3Q Method to perform a complete brain upgrade that enables you to access the full range of your intelligence by combining spiritual intelligence (SQ) with emotional intelligence (EQ) and intellectual intelligence (IQ).

Vertical and Horizontal

Spiritual intelligence represents vertical development because SQ is an advancement in spiritual realisation that transcends the ego. By contrast, the exercise of IQ and EQ in the absence of SQ are extensions of the ego, and therefore represent horizontal development.

Strategic and Tactical

Spiritual intelligence is sometimes known as Strategic Intelligence, in contrast to Tactical Intelligence, which is IQ and EQ. That’s because IQ and EQ are about HOW to do things (tactics), whereas SQ is about WHY to do things (strategy). Tactical intelligence is horizontal development and Strategic intelligence is vertical.

Rapid Learning

You will learn the 3Q Method rapidly on the MindMaster Experience course, because you will have the benefit of neurofeedback from a brain-sensing headband, which allows you to see your own brain activity in real time. A free headband is included in the cost of the course when you sign up for the MindMaster Experience.

Yours to Keep

The brain-monitoring headband is yours to keep after the end of the course. You will find the headband useful after the course is over, as you continue to develop your capabilities beyond the stage you reached at the end of the course.

Verified by Neuroscience

By the end of the MindMaster Experience, after only ten minutes practice with the headband per day for three months, the EEG data from your headband will verify that your 3Q brain upgrade is complete. That means you have developed the necessary brain capacity to experience spiritual intelligence in any circumstances.

Revolutionary Course

For the first time ever, an online course offers the means of brain development with the assistance of neurofeedback, and with verification of results by neuroscience. This is an enormous technological advantage compared to any other online course. But that’s not all.

This course excels not only in technology but also in methodology. The MindMaster Experience teaches the 3Q Method, which is the fastest and most effective brain training method to activate spiritual intelligence and upgrade your whole brain.

The evidence-based foundation of the MindMaster Experience, both in technology and in methodology, guarantees that what you are learning has the backing of modern science. For both these reasons, the MindMaster Experience is a unique and revolutionary course.

Brain-Monitoring Headband

To accelerate the 3Q brain upgrade, the MindMaster Experience uses a brain-monitoring headband. The headband is attached via bluetooth to an app on your phone. When you wear the brain-monitoring headband you get a real-time display of your brain activity on your phone screen. Your instructors on the MindMaster Experience also monitor your brain activity online while you are wearing the headband.

By monitoring your own brain activity you will learn rapidly how to use the 3Q Method to upgrade your brain. In the process, the record of your brain activity will verify that you have developed your brain’s ability to function at your best at any time. In only 10 minutes per day over the three months duration of the MindMaster Experience, you will learn how to access your full potential by combining all three dimensions of intelligence in any circumstances. The results of the MindMaster Experience course represent a complete brain upgrade, which will enable you to think better, feel better, relate better, and perform better.

Neuroplasticity

The 3Q Method employs neuroplasticity, which re-wires the brain according to how you use your attention. Studies show that meditation can rewire the brain in a matter of a few weeks. By using the 3Q Method for a mere 10 minutes per day for the three months duration of the MindMaster Experience, you are rewiring your brain to make SQ in combination with EQ and IQ easily accessible in any circumstances. This represents a complete brain upgrade in terms of brain processing, brain frequencies, brain neurotransmitters, neurogenesis, and brain structure.

Permanent Results

Your 3Q brain upgrade lasts beyond the sessions of the MindMaster Experience course, and after the end of the course. Studies in neuroscience show that the design of the 3Q Method ensures that you will build new brain structure that strengthens your 3Q neural network. This is due to the fact that when you maintain any state of awareness for 15 seconds or more continuously, your brain transfers the experience from short-term memory to long-term memory. The shift to long-term memory is accomplished by building new brain structure that supports continued access to the experience. Consequently, the MindMaster Experience will evolve your brain into a higher state of functioning. When your 3Q brain upgrade is complete, your 3Q intelligence will be accessible in any circumstances.

Structure of the Course

The MindMaster Experience is a three month course that requires 10 minutes practice per day with the brain-monitoring headband. In addition there are a number of short videos to watch explaining the fundamentals of the 3Q Method.

Content of the Course

The first week of the MindMaster Experience is taken up with several introductory videos. From the second week onwards, you will begin using the brain-monitoring headband. The headband is provided at no extra charge and will be delivered to you one week after the beginning of the course. Daily 10 minute sessions with the headband are done in association with videos that guide you through the 3Q Method. The 10 minute daily sessions can be completed at any time to suit your schedule.

Mentoring Program

Every two weeks on the MindMaster Experience course you are invited to attend a live online Mentoring session with others who are training in the 3Q Method. The Mentoring sessions are an opportunity to have your questions answered live by the course instructors, and to get guidance and support in applying what you are learning to your life. If you are unable to attend the Mentoring sessions live, recordings will be available that you can watch at your convenience.

Monitoring of Progress

The brain-sensing headband allows you to monitor your own progress over time. Your progress is supervised by the course instructors, who are in a position to guide you personally, as required, because they have access to your brain monitoring data. The course instructors will give you feedback about your progress during the 3Q brain upgrade. Once the course is over, your course instructors will no longer have access to your brain monitoring data when you use the headband.

Pre-training and Post-training
Neurological Test

Before training starts with the 3Q Method, you will take a short test with the headband to assess your current brain function. After training for three months on the MindMaster Experience course, you will be tested again to reveal the gains you have made in brain development since the course began.

Certificate of Completion

You will receive a Certificate of Completion together with verification of your brain development based on the neurological evidence from your brain monitoring data.

Guarantee

By finishing the MindMaster Experience course, you are guaranteed a complete 3Q brain upgrade, as verified by your brain monitoring data. If at the end of the course, your brain monitoring data does not confirm baseline 3Q capability, your money will be refunded.

How Can We Offer Such a Guarantee?

We can provide this Guarantee because we know from studies in neuroscience that the MindMaster Experience develops your 3Q brain circuitry by the process of neuroplasticity. A 3Q brain has the neural capacity to experience spiritual intelligence at will in any circumstances. In addition, the baseline of awareness in the 3Q brain is polarised to the subject-pole not the object-pole, even when not activating SQ intentionally. This means that your starting position in most moments has shifted beyond your ego. The evidence for this is confirmed by numerous studies in neuroscience and transpersonal psychology (see references). So we can be confidant about our Guarantee because we know that after you complete the MindMaster Experience (10 minutes practice of the 3Q Method per day for three months), the data from your headband will verify that you have developed baseline 3Q capability, defined as the ability to activate 3Q at will.

What Others Are Saying

“This course provides a framework for understanding your own experience and for understanding the spiritual process. As a corporate lawyer of 25 years experience, this course has been invaluable. What I learned on this course has become the cornerstone of everything I do personally and professionally.”

Victoria Stewart

“A few years ago I can honestly say I didn’t know what spiritual intelligence was. I only knew what most other people know about human intelligence, IQ & EQ. I thought my success was primarily dedicated by my IQ, and that this couldn’t be altered. And, of course, I also didn’t fully appreciate the immense power that SQ could have on my life. Fortunately I now know differently and in doing so it has truly changed my life. Learning the 3Q method has enabled me to connect with myself and others on a far deeper level than I could ever comprehend. By exploring and deepening my SQ further I now feel at peace with myself, I feel centred, in control, I make better decisions and more quickly, my relationships have improved, I feel truly connected with myself and everything around me and I feel an inner confidence that I have never experienced before. The success, joy and rapid personal growth that I am experiencing is down to discovering and nurturing my SQ, of that I have no doubt. The really exciting part out of all of this is that there is still so much more to discover…”

Dr. Adrian Massey

“It has been an amazing journey of self-discovery during the completion of this course. I do believe that the 3Q process unlocks the power to unite mind, body and soul. It definitely emerges as a new paradigm of intelligence by putting our soul in command of our ego and ultimately infuses us with soul energy. I have no hesitation in recommending this course. It is the way forward in order to harness our strengths, help others and improve society by using a higher dimension of our intelligence.”

Anita DeMonte

“From a personal and professional perspective I have gained an immense amount of clarity and understanding about the issues I have been grappling with for most of my life. In my view this course has immense value for anyone wishing to gain deeper insight and understanding of their own nature.”

Jane Colebourn

“I’ve been on a spiritual journey my whole life (whether I was aware of it or not). Having consciously searched over the last 15 years for answers, I’ve read countless books & tried numerous methods to find inner & outer peace with really no sustained results or success. SQ education and practice has been the single most pivotal point in my journey thus far, to attain freedom and peace. Not only does this method offer immediate relief from the torturous and suffering ego, but consistent application (anytime, anywhere) causes a profound paradigm shift to your total perception of awareness. One of the greatest things about the 3Q method is that it is so simple to grasp. So easy, even I can do it (and if I can do it, anyone can!). Something else that I really appreciated about this research and study, is the non secular approach which allows you to maintain (if you wish) any previous spiritual or religious beliefs/views (&/or atheist views are welcome too). This method will help dissolve or release you from any old baggage that is not serving you on the path to peace.”

Clint Ponte

“Have been waiting three months to put this comment… Wanted to be 100% certain, to be honest with others and me, and must admit that after 90 days of practice with this method, in all honesty, I can say without any doubts or regret that the source of true power and true happiness lies within mastering this method.”
