Summary

This is the full 8 hour presentation of: A Mind Power Disease by Bob A, he is one of the folks that founded the Prime Time groups out of Los Angeles. He is speaking at a Retreat held in Auburn California in August 1994, he was 43 years sober at the time of this event. Last month I put up part one and a ton of you emailed asking for the rest of the workshop, so here it is all 7 parts and 8 hours long. This jumps right in and it also ends a bit abruptly . The audio quality of this was all over the map and it took forever to get it edited and evened out, overall its good with a few short fuzzy spots. I put about one second of click track between each of the 7 sessions so you know where they stop and start, and lastly if you are bandwidth aware you might want to grab this on wifi its about 250 megs.
