August 18, 2018 Urbanatural

If you listen to auto suggestion CDs with music – music makes your attention more focused, your mind will not wander. It will relax your nerves. But you have to keep strong faith that it will surely happen. What you are suggesting to yourself – is bound to happen, actually is happening. Like a bird starts to sing even when it is…
