the only mind over matter i need is when your being pushed into the sidesplits against a wall. it might sounded strange but you can meditate on pain, and with some practise you can take it more easyly.
if this doesnt make sence can you tell me and ill try again

If you can link pain to the destructive habbit and pleasure to the 'painful' habit, you should start to do it.

Ask yourself questions:
What will this benefit me if I indulge in this now?
What will it cost me if I don't do this?
What will it give me in the long run if I do this?

This is known as NLP (neuro listic programming)

I got it from Tony Robbins' book 'Awaken the giant within'.

There are many mind techniques.
Most internal arts stem from these techniques.
I.E. Taijiquan, bagua, xing-yi become a type of moving qigong to one
who has practised enough.
There are also buddist qigong.
There are even wushu qigong like "iron shirt" or "golden bell cover".
However at the least it takes 3 yrs to build up iron shirt.
It can come in handy against many attackers.

Besides that there are the secret tantras of the buddists,
and the ancient writings of the Daoists.
One of interest to you might be the Ya jin jing. (muscle tendon changing)
It was written by an buddist indian monk who traveled to china.
Its companion is hard to get a hold of.
It is the "brain / marrow washing" classic.

You are probably searching for the higher levels of these arts.
However it takes many years to develop these,
and usually must be completed by the time you reach thirty.
There are reasons for this, but then again many chinese masters didnt explain the whys of anything to just anyone.

Da Mo
