Nader Rafigh, a daytime beauty connoisseur and a nighttime dreamer, once entangled in an actual nightmare that led to the creation of the topic of this book Wake-Up & Dream. He has studied and practiced transcendental meditation (TM), self-hypnosis, and far too many to mention related advanced courses, conferences, forums, classes, topics, and seminars. He is currently a hypnotist practitioner, a certified professional hypnotist approved by the International Certification Board of Clinical Hypnotherapy (ICBCH). Nader has also been the principal operator and manager of an independent beauty salon in McLean, Virginia since 1991. His voice, his words, and his message bring together many powerful principles in the masterpiece of Wake-Up & Dream. This book is based upon decades of studying what makes people do what they do, investigating habits and behaviors in ancient and modern anthropology, examining thousands of interviews, and holding a deep commitment to living harmoniously. The author romantically yet brutally conveys to us that awakening is an essential and absolute part of understanding the depth, the power, and the superiority of the irrepressible mind. In fact, waking up is indisputably essential to becoming supreme and superior, not to others, but only to your previous self, to how your self once was!
