Fortunately hypnosis can speak the language of this infinitely powerful, yet often draining part of the mind. With the use of language, communication, sound, or imagery, one is guided into a trance where the unconscious mind can be accessed. In this state of deep relaxation, healing and transformation can easily take place. Because of this connection to the unconscious mind, you can break free from negative ways of thinking and being that have been keeping you hindered from your ultimate capacities. Our possibilities as human being are endless when the unconscious mind is skilfully tapped into and worked with. During a hypnotherapy session, you are in complete control. If you choose to wake up, you just open your eyes. No one is going to make you do anything against your will. You are fully conscious of your surroundings, and in many cases your senses are heightened.

Anyone can enjoy the results of hypnotherapy. It is really just an “accelerated meditation” to get us into a calm state so we can cope more efficiently and joyfully with life. And now, with modern technology, we don’t need to be reliant on a therapist to help us achieve our dreams. In fact we don’t even need to leave our own home. Just put on your headphones on a regular basis, and watch as the positive changes begin to take place.

You will be guided into a state of complete physical and mental relaxation using clinical hypnotherapy techniques, along with 60 beats per minute sound effects that help to synchronise the left and right hemispheres of the brain. This creates an extremely receptive learning state.

Once you are in this optimum learning state, you are instructed to repeat carefully worded affirmations relating to the title of the tape/CD. These affirmations are profoundly hypnotic and soothing, allowing you to absorb the affirmation on a very deep level. These are enhanced with post-hypnotic suggestions to help you easily achieve your desired goal. Most recordings also include Pink Noise, a natural sound similar to waves. The low frequencies (between 6 & 10hz) emitted by Pink Noise synchronise with brainwaves and guide you into a mentally relaxed and creative state.

At the end of each recording, you will be gently brought back to full waking consciousness with a combination of suggestion and music. There are also a number of positive subliminal messages embedded in the outer music to maximise the benefits. The only exception to this is the Sleep tape which aims to guide you into a deep relaxing sleep and has no fade out music. Each tape/CD/DVD is completely safe and comes with a clear set of instructions. All affirmations and subliminal suggestions are clearly printed on the inside covers.

It is important to remember that you are being guided, so you will always be in full control of the whole process. If at anytime you want to stop, you just open your eyes and you will be wide awake.

If you fall asleep listening to the tape but you still hear the count up at the end of the track, you have probably been in a deep trance throughout. In this state you will still be absorbing all the suggestions on an unconscious level. If you don't hear the count up at the end you have probably drifted into a deep sleep at some point. In this case you will probably only absorb the suggestions to the point where you went into a deeper sleep. If this is the case we suggest you listen at a time when you are not tired.

How to use the CD's.
The tapes work in varying degrees and will be different for each individual. It is impossible to give an estimated time, but after a few listens you should begin to notice some positive changes. Sometimes the positive changes can be instant and dramatic. For other people it can be a gradual, subtle progression into a new pattern of behaviour over time.

You can listen to either track as often as you like, although it may be best to leave a short gap of say 5 to 10 minutes between tracks so you can absorb and assimilate the content. The recommendation of a gap between tracks is simply a suggestion, and it is fine to listen to both tracks consecutively if you prefer. The key to absorbing Hypnotic suggestion is habitual- The more you hear the suggestion the quicker your unconscious mind gets the message. You then respond to the suggestion automatically in your every day life.

So it is best to listen to the tapes/CDs on a daily basis initially, and continue until you have reached your goal or overcome the problem. You may even choose to continue listening indefinitely. With the Weight Loss title for example, you can continue to use the tape/CD even after you reach your target weight, as it will re-enforce your determination to remain in control of your weight and keep you focused.

It is probably best to listen to work with one tape at a time to allow your mind to focus on one goal.. However some titles will work fine with others as the issues are closely related. For example, the Self-Esteem tape will work fine in conjunction with the Think Positively, Self-Confidence, or even Weight Loss title. However, it is not be so good to listen to Smoking and Weight together as both are separate goals that need your full attention.

As for time span, it really depends on how you feel yourself. For example, if after listening to the weight tape for 2 months you feel you have conquered the problem, then you can move on to another goal, although a top up listen every now and again is a good idea. If after this time you are still struggling with eating habits, then continue working with the tape/CD and perhaps seek additional one to one help from a good therapist.

If you fall asleep listening to the tape but you still hear the count up at the end of the track, you have probably been in a deep trance throughout. In this state you will still be absorbing all the suggestions on an unconscious level. If you don't hear the count up at the end you have probably drifted into a deep sleep at some point. In this case you will probably only absorb the suggestions to the point where you went into a deeper sleep. If this is the case we suggest you listen at a time when you are not tired.
