For those of you unaware of this forum's moderator Steve Barnes, an instructor from CST Alpha, he is a prolific author and script writer who has been nominated for Hugo, Cable Ace, and Endeavor awards. His work for television includes episodes of Twilight Zone, Outer Limits, Stargate, and Andromeda. A lifelong student of human performance technologies, he holds black belts in judo and karate and of course an instructor certification in CST, as well as being a trained hypnotherapist.

Steve has been working with me for a good number of months through remote as well as private training sessions with a very special project in mind... which has now finally been revealed.

Star Wars: The Cestus Deception was written by Steve and takes place between the most recently released Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones and the upcoming final episode in the prequel trilogy Episode III.

This amazing book, which I was given the honor of reading in pre-publication draft form, regards the emergent consciousness of a particular clone, his realization of the powers of the Jedi, and the secret details of training in the Jedi academy.

What shall be most fascinating to our readers regards the training of the Jedi. In one particular segment, Obi-Wan Kenobi answers that one encounters the Force not by its accumulation, but by releasing the blockage which binds its flow into and through one; that emotional trauma and fear inhibits one's connection to the Force. The Jedi institution teaches its students physical Body-flow exercises which help them unlock and discharge these blocks to the Force... and in the credits of this amazing novel, credits RMAX, and in particular Body-Flow: Freedom From Fear-Reactivity as the resource underpinning the Jedi powers.

Congratulations, my dear friend, for such an amazing novel. You will bring millions to CST with this literary masterpiece!

Very cool, Steve! 8) 8) 8)

Looks like you beat my buddy to it! He and I have had chats about this very idea, and he's also been considering writing a book. :wink:

Let us know when it's released for distribution, and I'll be sure to check it out. With your other writing credits, I have no doubt that it will be a blast to read!

Sounds cool! Steve writes really good martial arts/science fiction stories. I particularly like "The Kundalini Equation" and his "Street Lethal" series. Top notch stuff!

Congrats, Steve! How can we help you?

Ask your agent whether it would be better for all of us to pre-buy at Amazon or cluster our buys in the first week of publication!

anything to goose the statistics...

I have yet to read a Star Wars novel that I did not enjoy. As a series, the folks in charge do a remarkably good job of keeping the quality of what is a very large collection of books consistently high. Steve, no doubt, has quite a lot of talent and I look forward to picking up a copy of this.

As anyone who has spoken to me knows, I consider Coach Sonnon's work the most advanced body/mind system I have encountered in over thirty years of intense research. Body-Flow (especially appleid to Clubbells!) is the apex of this work. In almost every book I've written, I've tried to include truths of body-mind development. Folks, those of you who have looked at Body Flow, Club-Bells, Flow State Performance Spiral and Be Breathed should have tweaked to the fact that what we have here is one one the great pathways to personal development EVER. Each of us should be steeping ourselves and adapting this material to our own lives, making our own breakthroughs, sharing it in our own ways. This goes way beyond spreading the word about RMAX (although we should do that--this is great stuff!) but about creating a world of autonomous warrior/philosopher/healers capable of being both strong and gentle. This is about the future of our species. All genuine knowledge belongs to the whole world. If using STAR WARS helps me spread a bit more truth to dispell the grotesque profusion of B.S. training and self-improvement material, then right on Star Wars. But its ultimately not about me, or Scott, or even you. It's about our children and grandchildren. Together, we can make a difference!

I don't normally read science fiction but maybe I'll have to make an exception with this one.

Well said, Steve! Paying it forward to the next generation! Our children will have the great advantage of growing up with
the most advanced body/mind system we are only now discovering so much later in life.
