After you’ve
bogeyed your
last hole,
you are
about to hit
your next
drive. As
you take
your
practice
swings, you
find your
mind still
on the last
putt that
you blew.
You take
your swing
and it’s a
slice. In
your mind
you say to
yourself
“Oh no, I’m
going to
bogey
again”!
You'd give
anything to
master the
"no bogey
putt".
Or, you’re
in a
tournament
and you keep
missing
putts in the
10 to 15
foot range.
If you make
this next 12
foot putt,
you will
place well
in the
tournament.
The pressure
is on. You
take your
time to set
up the putt.
You stroke
the ball,
and once
again you’re
six inches
short! You
say to
yourself,
“It’s the
same thing
I’ve been
doing all
day long”.
Sound
familiar?
You want to
play better
golf - not
just
improving
golf swings
or mastering
the no bogey
putt - but
really play
better golf
overall. You
know the techniques
and
mechanics
required to
play better
golf, but
you just
can’t get
either your
mind or your
body aligned
with each
other so
that they do
what you
want them to
do...just
play better
golf. For
some golfers
the
difficulty
may be
concentration;
for others
it can be
the
negative
thoughts
that
reinforce
themselves;
for others
it can be a
psychological
tightening
up.
In a word,
you are
stuck?
your
body and
your brain
are
“switched
off”, and
your golf
game is not
going well
at all.
If I haven’t
specifically
mentioned
what your
difficulties
are with
your golf
game, then
just fill in
the blank
with your
own issue or
issues:_____________________________________________. Whatever
your
situation
is, it's
actually
your
brain
and your
body
that
have
switched off
and you’re
experiencing
struggle
playing the
game.
To play
better golf,
you are
required to
think
clearly, to
be
analytical,
and to be
attentive to
details,
which are
all
functions of
your brain’s
left
hemisphere.
Golf also
requires you
to be
creative,
intuitive
and able to
see the
broader
picture,
which are
all
functions of
your brain’s
right
hemisphere.
To be a
truly
successful
golfer you
need to use
both sides
of your
brain
together at
the same
time.
If you are
using only
one side of
your brain
while you
are on the
course, you
will
experience
stress and
stress
switches you
off. You
need an
integrated
whole brain
approach.
That's where Educational Kinesiology,
Brain Gym® and Muscle Checking have proven so successful.

BEYOND FOR

Educational
Kinesiology
There is a
way to
switch on
your brain
for golf and
to insure
that both
sides of
your brain
are active
and
empowering
you. This
integration
process uses
a concept
called
Brain Gym®*.
Brain Gym
was
developed by
Paul
Dennison,
Ph. D., a
specialist
in learning
disabilities
and a
pioneer in
brain
dominance
patterns.
Dr. Dennison
discovered
that by
using very
simple body
movements
called Brain
Gyms, you
can use
specific
muscles
groups in
certain ways
that will
facilitate
the
integration
of both
sides of the
brain.
Dennison’s
work was
originally
developed
for children
and adults
with
learning
disabilities.
It
is now used
in school
systems
around the
world.
He
originally
synthesized
these simple
body
movements
and
exercises
from work
done in the
fields of
developmental
optometry, neurolinguistics,
left and
right brain
research,
acupressure,
and
kinesiology
(muscle
testing).
These brain
integration
concepts are
now being
applied to
golf.
When your
brain is
integrated,
your
golf game
immediately
becomes
easier and
less
stressful. This brain integration method is now available to you in a video called
Par and Beyond: Secrets to Better Golf.
The PGA and
the LPGA recognize
these Brain Gym movement exercises in course work for golf pros who are being re-certified as golf instructors, by accrediting the course seminars as continuing education hours.
Other
applications
for the
Brain Gym
concept are
being
applied to
the sales
process in a
course
called
Switched-On
Selling. One
client, the
South
Carolina
Farm Bureau,
did a
research
study and
discovered
that those
agents who
took this
one-day
seminar had
production
increases of
71% higher
than those
who did not
attend the
seminar.

Check
Your Muscles
One of the
most unique
components
of
Par and
Beyond:
Secrets to
Better Golf
is the use
of
“muscle
checking”. As a professional speaker and trainer, I have been demonstrating the
muscle
checking
concept in
my seminars
for over 30
years and
have taught
it to
hundreds of
thousands of
people
around the
world.
Audiences
have found
it both
amazing and
exciting. To
understand
this
technique
you will
need a
partner to
practice on.
Read through
these
instructions
for muscle
checking
first, and
then follow
them with
your
partner.
1.
Face a
partner.
Have your
partner
raise one
arm
straight
out from
the side
of his or
her body
with thumb
pointing
down.
Imagine a
bird with
a wing
outstretched
and you’ll
have the
correct
arm
position.
2.
Place one
of your
hands on
your
partner's
extended
arm, above
the wrist.
Place the
other hand
on your
partner's
opposite
shoulder.
3.
Instruct
your
partner to
resist as
you push
down,
firmly and
steadily,
on his
extended
arm for
several
seconds.
You are
not
attempting
to force
or jerk
the arm
all the
way down,
you are
simply
checking
your
partner's
normal
ability to
resist.
Your
partner’s
arm should
not move
down more
than a
couple of
inches. If
it does,
it means
you have
pressed too
hard.
Simply
repeat
with a
lighter
pressure.
4.
While your
partner
keeps the
arm
extended,
have him
close their
eyes and
think of a
negative
golf
experience.
When they have it in
focus, ask
them to
resist
while you
press down
on the
arm. The
arm will
usually go
down with
very
little
pressure.
5.
Now ask
your
partner to
close their
eyes and
think of a
very
positive golf experience. Once your partner is visualizing the experience, ask them
to resist
again
while you
press down
on the
extended
arm. The
arm will
usually
stay level
and
strong,
even if
you apply
more
pressure.
6.
Switch
roles and
have your
partner
check you.
Muscle
checking is
not a trick, though it will seem like one!;
the results
are real and
repeatable.
The muscle
checking is
indicating
the response
of your
partner’s
unconscious
mind to the
negative and
positive
experiences.
This allows
you to
easily see
and
experience
how
everything
around you
and within
you
affects your ability to perform on the golf course.
The results
have nothing
to do with
muscular
strength,
rather, you
are
accessing a
neurological
phenomenon.
The muscle
stays strong
with the
positive
thought.
This is
indicating
that the
body's life
energy and
brain
functions
are
switched-on.
When the arm
goes down
easily with
the negative
thought, it
is
demonstrating
how these
thoughts are
weakening
the body's
energy and
brain
function.
As you
observed and
experienced
for
yourself,
the contrast
is very easy
to see.
After the seeing the above for yourself, you will understand the underlying concept of Par and Beyond: Secrets - energy and brain functions - techniques created by Dr. Teplitz exclusively for the golfer.
IS PAR AND
BEYOND FOR
ME ?

Change
Your Brain
With Par and
Beyond you
will learn
to take the
negative
golf
situation to
the next
level of
change. At
that level
you will
learn how to
dissipate
this
negative
energy so
that it
doesn’t
affect you
on the next
hole. For
example,
you’ve
double
bogeyed a
hole. Your
mind is
triggered
and you keep
putting
yourself
down as
you’re going
to the next
tee.
To
stop these
negative
thoughts
there are
two simple
Brain Gym
movement
exercises
you will
need to do
that will
only take
about 90
seconds. The
movements
actually
change how
the brain
and body are
reacting to
the
situation.
The physical
movement may
seem unusual
at first,
but you will
quickly
become
comfortable
with the
movements
and find
them to be
effective,
relaxing and
energy
changing.
Here’s how
to do them:
1. Have a
partner
muscle
check you
while you
are
thinking
of a
negative
golf
situation.
Your
muscle
will check
weak.
2. Next
you will
do a
movement
called
"Hook-Ups."
While you
are
holding
the
Hook-Ups
position,
keep the
negative
thought
you would
like to
dissipate
in your
mind. Put
as many
details,
as much
color and
intensity
into the
thought as
you can.
While most
people
would tell
you not to
think
negative
thoughts,
in this
situation
it is
necessary
to do so
to take
the
negativity
out of the
brain.
After a
short
time, you
may find
yourself
having
difficulty
focusing
on the
negative.
If that
happens,
change
your
thoughts
and start
viewing
the
situation
positively.
3. To do
the Cook's
Hook-Up,
sit
comfortably
in a
chair.
Place your
feet flat
on the
floor. Put
your left
foot onto
the top of
your right
knee.
Place your
right hand
on your
left
ankle, and
place your
left hand
on the
ball of
your left
foot near
your toes.
Close your
eyes,
place your
tongue on
the roof
of your
mouth one
quarter of
an inch
behind
your
teeth.
Breathe
normally,
and hold
the
negative
thought.
Hold this
position
for thirty
seconds to
a minute.
4. Keeping
the eyes
closed,
the tongue
up, and
the
negative
thought
focused,
place both
feet flat
on the
floor and
bring just
your
fingertips
together
like a
teepee in
front of
you. Hold
this
position
for thirty
seconds to
a minute,
breathing
naturally.
5. When
you are
finished,
open your
eyes.
6. The
second
movement
you will
do is
called
Positive
Points. On
your
forehead,
in the
middle of
your
eyebrow
and half
way up to
the
hairline,
there is a
small bony
protrusion
known as a
frontal
eminence.
Place the
middle
three
fingers of
the left
hand over
the left
frontal
eminence
and the
three
fingers of
the right
hand over
the right
frontal
eminence.
Apply a
very light
pressure.
7. Close
your eyes
and remain
in this
position
for thirty
seconds to
a minute.
If you
feel the
negativity
dissipating,
begin to
focus on a
positive
side of
the event.
When you
are
finished,
open your
eyes.
8. Have a
partner
muscle
check you
again
while you
keep the
same
situation
in your
mind. You
will
experience
that your
arm will
stay
strong.
After you
have
completed
these
positions,
you will
find that
you are
able to
recall the
situation
but that
the
negativity
is gone
from your
memory.
Using these
positions
will
demonstrate
to you
the
power of
movement
over your
brain and
your body.
You can use
these two
positions
whenever you
experience a
negative
golf
situation.
The Par and
Beyond video
does not
teach
golfing
techniques
and
mechanics.
You will
still need
your golf
Instructor
to do that;
rather, Par
and Beyond:
Secrets to
Better Golf
teaches
techniques
which allow
you to
re-energize
and refocus
in seconds
so you can
excel beyond
your present
level of
success.
IS PAR AND
BEYOND FOR
ME?
This was an
example of
just one
aspect of
the science behind the Par and
Beyond
training video. The
rest of the
video
focuses on
putting you
in charge of
every aspect
of your golf
game.
Through this
work, you
will
experience
immediate
and positive
change to
your golf
game directly after viewing the seminar course on digital video (DVD).

Stories
What
are the
benefits of
this
concept?
Here is what
some
satisfied
users had to
say about
their
experience:
"A dozen
trips to the
driving
range
couldn't do
for my golf
game what
this session
did. I have
found a way
to take
stress out
of my game.
I now know
there is a
future for
my game."
David Van
Sickle
Beamsville,
Ontario, CN
"I went to
Par and
Beyond to
write about
Dr.
Teplitz's
technique
with a
certain
skepticism
but soon
realized
everything
he taught
made sense.
When I got
home, my
next round
of golf was
my life's
best and now
the
techniques
are part of
every round
I play!"
Tom J. Fox
T&L Golf
Magazine
“Within a
week of
watching the
video my
scores
started
dropping two
to four
strokes each
round. I was
finding that
my drives
were going
longer and
more in play
than usual.
I was a 16
handicap
just a month
ago. I’ve
been
hovering
around 15-16
for the last
several
years. Since
watching the
video
program,
I’ve dropped
to a 14 and
according to
the computer
I’m trending
to a 12.
Your video
program
allows me to
concentrate
and focus
like I’ve
never done
before. It
works!”
Shep Hyken
St. Louis,
MO
"As we
discussed I
have had a
real problem
with my
putting from
the three to
eight foot
range. The
afternoon
after your
session I
made five of
the six
putts I had
in that
range. Later
that week I
had a match
play
competition,
which I won,
on the
fifteenth
hole. To say
the least I
have been
pleased with
the session
and the
experience."
