Each week in the comfort of our homes, we watch a previously assigned movie... Then at Weekly Dialogues held via Internet Conferencing, we discuss the lessons, dynamics, et cetera, within THAT WEEK's Movie Selection; and offer insights about how the knowledge might be used in daily life to produce ever more desirable results. Using the SAFE environment of a Make-belief MEDIA we can learn through the characters' experiences, without personally going through the drama, struggles, and trauma, that the characters did...

WHY use Movie Dialogues?... Because when correctly used, films, videos, DVDs, or any picture-action format, provides a POWERFUL INSTANT learning tool, and can be used for programming the brain's software to produce desired results... The type of results that will mainfest are formulated by the consciousness and conscience of each individual encountering the film, video, DVD, etc... For this reason it's essential to HAVE Brain Software FILTERS installed that can wisely use the intelligences and senses to produce ONLY that which will DO NO HARM... Such value-productive self-educare skills are easily acquired by using Paradise Dynamics.

Whether a person is already a high performer looking to hone "life skills", or someone who needs a lot of support and understanding, this Wisdom and Success Engineering System brings a person to where desires and actions are aligned with purpose and passions.

How do we do that? One of our strongest tools is... Movies!... We use major movies available around the world to utilize the amazing power of film to transform a person's belief patterns, and give them a visual context of achieving a wonderful, worthwhile life.... Think about a favorite film where you wished you were the main character, complete with a happy ending. You will realize through what we teach that you are already in your own movie. You are the scriptwriter, the producer, the director, the CRITIC and the star performer. All the close people in your life are the cast and everyone else the extras... Have you ever asked yourself: "How is MY movie turning out so far?"

You will notice from the movies suggested for use with Success Engineering, they offer the prescription to an effective, joyful life; which lies in the intense messages and metaphors that great movies allow us to see. Psychologists and psychiatrists are not the only ones who have discovered the amazing healing power of using major motion pictures. Many Universities and other learning institutions have been using film for years to "drive home" concepts that are being taught.

Entertaining Motion-Music Media (a/k/a movies) is the first dynamic to offer this proven method to help people assimilate those "difficult to find" answers to the questions they may have been asking themselves for years.

Cinematherapy with the Addicted Client:

Escott also offers this preview of a presentation she hopes to present later this year in conjunction with Dr. Ulus and others at the APA conference next May.

Using films to help clients identify previously denied feelings and harmful behaviors is one of the many benefits of movie therapy. As clinicians become more comfortable with this treatment modality, the use of films to treat addicted individuals and their families can provide a valuable intervention. Finding the appropriate film and matching it to the clinical presentation is essential to the effectiveness of this new treatment modality.

Movies have portrayed alcoholism and addiction since the early days of film, from the 1916 Chaplin¹s Police to 1930¹s Thin Man screwball comedies depictions of ³carefree² alcoholics to contemporary films such as Leaving Las Vegas. The wealth of films dealing with this topic does so with varying degrees of reality and clinical relevance.

Perhaps the greatest challenge in treating the addicted individual, and often their family, is in breaking through the denial ‹ the primary defense mechanism utilized in early, middle and late stages of alcoholism. If the film is not chosen judiciously, it may only feed into the client¹s denial as he or she may tend to deal with the film on a literal level. For example, assigning a movie such as 28 Days could result in the client returning to session with such comments as ³I never got drunk at a wedding² or ³My mother wasn¹t an alcoholic.² Indeed, they may use the assignment to minimize their own usage by comparing with specific behaviors rather than looking for parallels in their relationships and own behavior.

In this presentation we will look at specific films that may be used with addicts in early and middle stages of the disease process and follow up interventions designed to help the client identify their own usage and the effects the addiction has on specific areas of their lives, i.e., work, family and health.

When we fully comprehend that using movies for self improvement is an emerging field, I think you'll agree THIS is on the LEADING EDGE of this huge industry! .... That's exciting, isn't it?

What is it?
This is an Internet-Based Workshop offering a high impact-coaching environment where an assigned film is discussed each week. Your end result is a connection with the part of you that knows you can accomplish any goal you set. Each movie focuses on a success formula exploring a theme from a variety of angles.

Why Movies?
Great movies have a powerful effect on us, causing us to 'suspend our disbelief' and immerse ourselves in the lives of others - to feel their feelings, live their lives, and gain the unique perspectives of others' experiences.

The Impact is because we help each other to recognize that living a great life is not all about having the material trappings, but rather enjoying the journey one day at a time, always moving forward. We empower and inspire each other through the tough times, and celebrate our breakthroughs with our online family.

With the CORRECT USE of Movies you will be able to:

• Identify areas of your life where you're not living up to your full potential

• Transform your happy ending into a new beginning

• Put into action what you learn, this moment now, and the next and the next...
