<p>PHITEN Information</p>
<p>WHAT IS PHITEN?<br />
Phiten products are worn by elite athletes all over the world. For the past several years the number of world class athletes seen with Phiten gear has steadily increased. We are proud to introduce new products in our lineup to continue the Phiten philosophy of health, energy, and well-being. Anyone can benefit from wearing our products to help aid in counteracting the stress and fatigue of everyday life.</p>
<p>Each of our Pro-Staff athletes has seen the benefits of our technology and wear our products every time they go to work. Phiten products work with your body’s energy system, helping to regulate and balance the flow of energy throughout your body. Proper energy balance helps to alleviate discomfort, speed recovery, and counteract fatigue. Athletes find that they tire less easily and recover faster from intense physical activity. Further benefits of Phiten’s exclusive technology are more relaxed muscles leading to less stress and a greater range of motion that can be of great benefit to an athlete or anyone in any walk of life. At Phiten we are proud of our products and proud to increase the health and well being of the people that believe in our products.</p>
<p>EXPERIENCE THE ENERGY OF PHITEN AND FEEL BETTER EVERYDAY</p>
<p>OUR EXCLUSIVE TECHNOLOGY<br />
Phiten Technology is based around the different applications of our high-intensity Phild Process. Titanium has been found by our scientists to be particularly responsive to the Phild Process; meaning, it is consistently effective in emitting, or &#8220;passing on&#8221; the stabilizing effect of the Phild Process.</p>
<p>ENERGY TRANSPORT SYSTEM</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-399" title="etsphiten" src="http://www.xtrememind.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/etsphiten.png" alt="etsphiten" width="204" height="153" />This Phild effect is the basis for the Energy Transport System. The Phild Processed material regulates the body&#8217;s energy flow by stablizing ions. Injury, fatigue, and low oxygen levels hurt the efficiency of your cells, disrupting the normal flow of energy in your system. This increases the tension and fatigue in your body as it tries to compensate for the lost energy. Phiten products stabilize the energy, permitting a greater flow of energy with less waste. Fatigue sets in later and recovery time is shortened.</p>
<p><strong>AQUA TITANIUM </strong></p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-398" title="aquatitanium" src="http://www.xtrememind.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/aquatitanium.png" alt="aquatitanium" width="155" height="142" />In nature, titanium is not a soluble material. However, by utilizing the high-intensity Phild Process, Phiten scientists are able to dissolve titanium in water. This creates Aqua-Titanium, which then can be absorbed into material just like a dye. The Aqua-Titanium becomes part of the fabric and can not be washed out or fade away. Aqua-Titanium most prominently used in our necklaces and apparel, where the entire fabric is permeated with Aqua-Titanium and emits energy that effectively controls your bio-electric current.</p>
<p>Note: The Phiten Products will be taken from Planet Sports Corporation and shipped at no extra charge to your door</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For those who haven&#8217;t tried the Infinite Abundance Pendant, here&#8217;s an even classier alternative that is sure to draw stares: the Wealth Belt.<img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-369" title="rowland-hermes-belt1" src="http://www.xtrememind.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/rowland-hermes-belt1-150x150.png" alt="rowland-hermes-belt1" width="150" height="150" /></p>
<p>The wealth belt is an Hermes Belt made from genuine cow leather and crowned with a highly polished buckle. It is sported by many A-listers and by itself oozes power and authority. But there&#8217;s more. This special belt is energized with a ritual spell that attracts financial opportunities to you by drawing people who knows people who knows people. Vibrations from the programming also increase your &#8220;luck quotient&#8221; to make snappy decisions for your best monetary interest. Don your belt when going for a job interview or board meeting. Wear it when playing cards. You&#8217;ll really kick some metaphysical ass!</p>
<p>The belt comes with an orgone generator to ensure that its fields continually get replenished. Please don&#8217;t lose the generator- it works for your belt and only your belt through the principle of structural links.</p>
<p>The price of this belt is $399 and comes with an Archangel-class chi generator. Belt Box, pouch and radionic software included. Plus the usual 2 month satisfaction guarantee.  Please email us for details while the belt is not yet in the catalogue.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Our <a href="http://www.xtrememind.com/Psionic-jewelry.htm">psionic jewelry</a> pilot project launched as an experiment. With unexpected results.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.xtrememind.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/heart-pendant.jpg" title="heart-pendant.jpg"><img src="http://www.xtrememind.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/heart-pendant.thumbnail.jpg" alt="heart-pendant.jpg" align="right" /></a>Kickstarting with the large <strong>Infinite Abundance medallion</strong>, the initiative brought prosperity both ways- to the company and to the new homes they set up shop in. Here&#8217;s one email I got:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I liked its design. Very goth.  I felt like a member of some cult, cool really. Cult of Wealth? Yeah! But more than that, I felt that either it gave me confidence to make money (placebo? ) or it actually made me money. That&#8217;s because I met three people (isn&#8217;t that a magical number) the other week who introduced me to partnerships that could just fruit (sic) by Dec this year&#8230;. either way, I like the way my life&#8217;s going right now. Will keep wearing it till I discover concrete proof on this.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p><a href="http://www.xtrememind.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/celtic-pendant.jpg" title="celtic-pendant.jpg"><img src="http://www.xtrememind.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/celtic-pendant.thumbnail.jpg" alt="celtic-pendant.jpg" align="right" /></a>It&#8217;s a simple concept really. The medallion utilizes archetype symbols (emblems historically associated with specific outcomes) programmed with intent and fortified with a remote chi generator that you control. I believe any intermediate-level afficionado of <a href="http://www.thesecret.tv/">The Secret</a> or Cosimano can do this. We merely found one irresistibly effective way to do it.</p>
<p>Just two challenges:</p>
<p>1) Price</p>
<p>2) Variety</p>
<p>Despite the good feedback on the medallion&#8217;s efficacy, buyers found the $299 price steep and a focus on abundance too narrow. The team decided to address this by offering new buyers  the opportunity to customize the medallion&#8217;s intent along 5 lines:</p>
<p>- <strong>Psi protection/Anti-Hex</strong> (if you feel attacked, you&#8217;ll love the way evil goes back to the sender)</p>
<p>- <strong>Charisma/Sexual Magnetism/Presence</strong> (walk into the club- and get noticed big time)</p>
<p>- <strong>Sports Power/ Endurance</strong> (lift more, run faster. dump the creatine!)</p>
<p>-  <strong>Rabid Intuition/Optimal Decisions</strong> (know what to do, when to do it)</p>
<p>We also <strong>halved the size</strong> of the silver pendants for anything other than the Abundance Medallion. This allows us to drop the price to $199. The size of the accompanying energy generator also goes down by 25%.</p>
<p><strong>Experiment with the new line of psionic jewelry!</strong> It&#8217;s backed by our usual guarantee.</p>
<p>Please fill in the fields in the Paypal menu for the general trend (aforementioned) and the specific intent you want them for. Allow three to five days programming  time.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a align="left" href="http://www.xtrememind.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/infiniteabundancesmall.jpg" title="infiniteabundancesmall.jpg"></a>Imagine a psionic power medallion that not only throbs with the ancient power of sacred geometry but also carries quantum fields imbued with ever-replenishing information- potent programming that reinforce your demands for constant abundance.</p>
<p>Now you won&#8217;t just keep up with the Jones- <strong>you&#8217;ll blast past them!</strong></p>
<p>You see, we developed a new generation of Quantum Coherence Psionics (QEP) energizers that maximizes ion oscillations and electron stability down to the sub-molecular level. This technology is found in the advanced UltraRAD Imagine Laser-XE (not for sale) and offers an ability to rapdily tap into the high frequency coherent energies (ZeroPoint Energy) which is then easily and naturally saturated the into high-energy state metals. It is this breakthrough that now allows us to create sacred geometry  talismans infused with intent that self-revitalizes and provides bioavailable energies.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.xtrememind.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/infiniteabundancesmall.jpg" title="infiniteabundancesmall.jpg"><img src="http://www.xtrememind.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/infiniteabundancesmall.jpg" alt="infiniteabundancesmall.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>So tell me this: does carrying lumps of orgonite  simply violate your sense of style? If so, you&#8217;ll want to try out our class-leading psionic power medallions. They not only make you look like a million bucks- they can help you make a million bucks.</p>
<p>Each medallion is a classy pendant that by itself is a sacred geometry symbol inherently broadcasting centuries of archtype intents- thoughts like power, control, attraction and psi defence. But the medallion goes beyond that. The sacred geometry is maximally reinforced with special programming from an Imagine radionic device that alters the organic information fields permeating the device.</p>
<p>The talisman&#8217;s fields never fade, even in the face of of extreme EMF or toxic thoughts. In fact, it can get stronger each day and you WILL feel   your thoughts and surrounding events falling into starting synchronicity. This action results from both the imputed trends run into its fields and the archetype intent already set in place for centuries. However, we recommend charging the talisman every night on its accompanying tachyon plate created solely for its accompanying medallion. The tachyon plate erases any stagnant energies that may contaminate the device over the day, guaranteeing maximum power the next day.</p>
<p>Currently available is the <strong>Infinite Abundance mediallion</strong>. Crafted in solid 925 silver (that&#8217;s about medical grade), the talisman bears sacred geometry, that, for hundreds of years signifies prosperity. It comes with a tachyon charging plate mated to this medallion and both are programmed on the quantum field level to exploit events leading to maximum abundance in material wealth. A free <a href="http://www.tachyon-energy-products.com/">tachyon crystal </a>($129) value will also be included with orders.</p>
<p>Introductory price is $299 ($40 DHL shipping) before it&#8217;s grand launch this March 15. Models for Extreme Attraction, Psi Awareness and  Sports Dominance will be released by March 15. Final SRP after the launch date will be $399. Titanium and white gold versions will be made available mid this year.</p>
<p>As with all products in our inventory- this device comes with an <strong>absolute money back guarantee</strong>. Give it a test run for two months. Dowse it if you will. If you don&#8217;t feel subtle shifts in your behavior or events that lead to abundance, we will abundantly refund you- <strong>no questions asked</strong>. Just return the unit to us in good order.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here&#8217;s what to do if someone makes an amazing request.</p>
<p>1) Just agree. If someone offers a suggestion, comment, or complaint, say, &#8220;Thank you. I&#8217;ll note that and tell my boss.&#8221; Never attempt to explain why the idea won&#8217;t work because this will start an argument. If appropriate ask for clarification or suggestions on how to implement the idea.</p>
<p>2) Avoid &#8220;Not.&#8221; Negative talk encourages arguments, counter attacks, and attempts to solve your problems. It also creates a negative impression. For example, when you say, &#8220;I can&#8217;t,&#8221; you appear helpless and ineffective. Instead, talk about what you can do and what you want to do.</p>
<p>3) Work at the Ritz. That is, deal with impossible requests by 1) acknowledging the request, 2) empathizing with the other person&#8217;s feelings, 3) saying, &#8220;I wish I could . . . ,&#8221; and 4) suggesting a reasonable alternative.&#8221;</p>
<p>For example, imagine that you work at a resort and it&#8217;s raining. A guest walks up to you carrying a golf bag, slams it against your desk, and shouts, &#8220;This place stinks! I spent thousands of dollars coming here and it&#8217;s raining.&#8221;</p>
<p>Respond by saying, &#8220;You&#8217;re right it&#8217;s raining. And I know how upsetting it is to be stuck inside. I wish I could make it stop. In the meantime, you may want to visit our indoor putting center. Our golf pro is offering instructions this afternoon.&#8221;</p>
<p>4) Include them. Deal with difficult requests by 1) affirming your willingness to help and 2) asking the other person to help you plan a solution.</p>
<p>For example, if your boss asks you to start another project, you could say, &#8220;I understand you want me to start a new project. And right now I&#8217;m working on another project. To help me set my priorities, I wonder which one you want me to finish first.&#8221;</p>
<p>5) Let them choose. If appropriate, offer choices that show the consequences of different options. This allows the other person to choose both the process and its impact.</p>
<p>For example, you can say, &#8220;That&#8217;s a great idea. And there are different ways I can meet your request. We can use our existing supplies, which are free, or we can buy custom materials, which will cost $500. Which option would you prefer?&#8221;</p>
<p>6) Let them decide. Deal with complaints by asking the other person to describe a fair settlement. You can say, &#8220;What do you want?&#8221; or &#8220;What would you consider a fair solution to this?&#8221; or &#8220;What would make you happy?&#8221;</p>
<p>7) Smile. A smile makes you sound approachable, friendly, and helpful. When you frown, other people hear caution, fear, and rejection. A smile (or at least a pleasant expression) encourages open communication.</p>
