Alexander S. Holub has degrees in both Education and Psychology. Now retired, he had taught Psychology in the Los Angeles area in community colleges for more than 30 years.

Recently, Alex has become a published author. His first book, "Psychokinesiology: Doorway to the Unconscious Mind" was published in 1999. It is in the forefront of the use of Applied Kinesiology in counseling and therapy. His last psychologically oriented text titled, "From Victim to Victor! Defeating a Victim's Consciousness" (2007) deals with the emotions and feelings of victimization people feel in present-day society. Unless these emotional blocks are confronted and properly discarded, it becomes extremely difficult to achieve any goals you may set. His new book is titled: Dropping Pebbles in Still Water: Breaking the Unbroken Whole of the Universe (2011). The focus is on making personal change in your life. It combines theoretical physics, psychology and metaphysics to explain the workings of the brain and how to affect the desired change. (See www.body-mind-unlimited.com or www.nohoax.com.)
