Book

Everyone is discussing a medical breakthrough that will change the way you live your life forever. This book teaches you how to recognize and rest your Identity System (I-System®), a built-in mechanism that controls your body and mind.

Come to Your Senses (ISBN 1-58270-126-1) is available at your local bookstores. You can also order a copy from Amazon.com or BarnesandNoble.com. Dr. Stanley H. Block, a former Beverly Hills psychoanalyst, has developed simple tools - bridging and mind-body mapping- that can help millions who are living in a paralyzed state of mind. Together they help people come to their senses, achieving a healthier and happier way of life within days.

In his book and on his website Dr. Block shows readers how resting their Identity System heals even extreme situations such as domestic violence, drug abuse, alcoholism, child-rearing crises, obesity, and much more. Athletes have been able to harness the benefits of this freedom to enhance performance and improve their technique in competition. You will learn how easy it can be to free yourself from your own limitations and allow your natural self room to thrive, simply by being aware of the sounds, smells, sights, and sensations surrounding you - and then recognizing and letting go of self-defeating thoughts. This technique has already transformed thousands of lives.
