There is an easy technique called "The Bars" that can help. Lightly touch 32 spots on the head and you can erase stuff that's causing you to be stuck on a hamster wheel in your brain.

1. Defrag my Brain????
Really?? Absolutely! Why not? We can do it to our computers, why not our brain? Our brains have
been compared to computers, right?
But what would it take? What would that look like exactly? Would it hurt? Is there a magic “button”
somewhere on my head that I can push?
Well sort of. Actually there are 32 such places on the head and they are called “Bars” – energy Bars that
is, and when they are lightly touched, they release electromagnetic energy. This is where the defrag
takes place.
“OK, I’ll take some of that” you say. Great! Here’s how it works.
About 25 years ago a guy named Gary Douglas came up with these energy Bars that run through the
head. Each Bar pertains to some aspect of our life that we deal with every day: joy, sadness, money,
control, creativity, creating connections, peace, gratitude, and more.
He found out that when we touch each of these Bars, the particular aspect of that Bar gets defragged.
By defragged, I mean that old habits and patterns surrounding that Bar are released. Poof! Gone! How
cool is that? So some of the things we learned from our parents, grandma and grandpa, teachers, TV,
books, etc. that are stored in our brain (a lot of which is subconscious) and which inhibit us from
performing at our optimum potential, or being the person we want to be, can be released.
Have you ever wondered why you keep choosing the same things in your life that don’t really work for
you? Why would you choose a job that starts early in the morning when you are not a morning person?
Or why choose a job that is 100% working inside when you love being outdoors? Why would you work
for a male boss when you know you work better with a female boss? Why do certain attributes of your
co-workers always get on your nerves? Does constructive criticism always leave you feeling “less than”?
“Getting your Bars run” describes a typical “defragging” session. This can be done in a reclining chair or
on a massage table. Almost everyone falls asleep – a deep theta sleep. And it’s OK to snore. No one
will care. This will be your time to totally receive, relax and renew. Sounds heavenly already doesn’t it?
When was the last time you had a good night’s sleep? Restorative sleep is an absolute necessity to our
well being. Or an hour to yourself with no interruptions?
All this happens in an hour!! No more long hours on the psychiatrist’s couch (not that there’s anything
wrong with that) trying to figure things out. You can relax and change at the same time. The session
continues to work after getting your Bars run because more things continue releasing each day.
What would it look like if you couldn’t wait to get to work every day? Can you really wake up joyful each
morning? What if you had so many new ideas to contribute to your job that you didn’t know where to

2. start? Is it possible to not take things personally? What if things were not right or wrong, or good or
bad? What if they were just ideas with no judgment? Oh my!
Can we really allow co-workers and bosses to be who they are without resisting and reacting, or aligning
and agreeing (all that polarity)? What would it take for your life to be easier?
I know, some of this sounds so “outside the box” doesn’t it? Well, it can actually happen by getting your
Bars run. It’s so easy. How does it get any better than that? What else is possible? Get your Bars run
and put the “joy” back in “job”. Or life. Or your family. Or whatever.
