Face it. You are a story addict. The shows, the status updates, the gossip, the devices, the rationalizations, the plans. You can’t live without it. It’s all you are, and it’s completely beyond you.
It’s time for you to BE STORY FREE®!!!
How?
Just come to this Be Story Free® Seminar and experience the liberating power of the Be Story Free® Brigade as led by Be Story Free® founder Dr. Jip Syuzhet.
Through participation in the Be Story Free® Program, story addicts from around the world are
finding freedom from the crippling, prenatal, pervasive invasion of
story into their minds, relationships, wallets and lives by ridding
themselves of the noxious, uninvited, impoverishing influences of
– a paralyzing need for absolute, irreversible change;
– the regressive belief in an external, charismatic evil;
– the fascistic reliance on “sole protagonist selfism”©;
– spurious, time-consistent, cause-and-effect dependencies;
– the life-limiting demand for explanation and meaning;
– personal relationships with depersonalizing conglomerates;
– years and years of emptiness, lies and false connections.
If you think story is just something your parents told you to put you to sleep, you’re right. And it’s still happening to this day. Everywhere, all the time, through every imaginable method, your unchosen moral supervisors are infesting your soul with stories to “put you down.”
Don’t let them do it anymore. Rise up. Be free. Rid yourself of story.
