Instructions for CD
use. .
. |
|
Most of my CDs will have
instructions inside the cover. Here
is some additional information you
might find helpful: |
|
Hypnosis and
Guided Imagery: |
They are relaxed, focus states which
allow information to be bypassed by
the conscious (analytical) mind so
it can be easily delivered into the
subconscious mind, where behavior
changes can be made.
All habits and reactions are
conditioned responses and reside in
the subconscious mind. When you
repeat something over and over, the
mind begins to believe that this
behavior is good, so it gets stored
and imprinted in the subconscious
mind. Regardless of how much you
consciously attempt to change that
behavior with your strong will
(conscious mind), your subconscious
mind overrides this attempt and you
continue repeating the old stored
behavior. Since the subconscious
mind cannot differentiate between
reality and imagination, hypnosis
and guided imagery works to change
behaviors and patterns. Suggestions
given in an “altered state” are more
readily accepted as the “preferred”
imprint of behavior and accepted in
the subconscious mind. |
|
Altered States
of Relaxation: (brain wave activity) |
|
Beta Waves |
| When
you are wide awake and
in a peak performance of
beta state, your mind
makes connections
quickly and easily
because multitudes of
neurons are firing
rapidly. Beta is the
frequency biofeedback
therapists use to treat
disorders. |
|
Alpha Waves |
| When
you are this relaxed,
brain activity slows
down into the gentler
waves of alpha. Fears
vanish and you find
yourself in a state of
peace and well being.
Alpha is an excellent
state for problem
solving and finding new
ideas. It’s the perfect
state in which to
practice meditation,
hypnosis and
visualization. |
|
Theta Waves |
| Here
brain activity is slowed
down almost to the point
of sleep, but not quite.
Many people experience a
floating sensation, or
feel their mind
expanding beyond their
body’s boundaries.
Because theta reaches
into the threshold of
the subconscious, it is
the best possible state
for super learning,
reprogramming the mind,
hypnosis, behavior
modification and dream
recall. |
|
Delta Waves |
| This
state is usually
associated with sleep,
healing and
regeneration. Delta is
the deep subconscious –
the seat from which
intuition arises, and
the ground-source from
where all unconscious
activity flows into
consciousness. Deep
meditation and insight
can be achieved here. |
| |
|
To successfully change
behavior; addictions;
weight loss; stress;
etc. only the Alpha
level of relaxation is
necessary. The
Alpha state can be
easily achieved with
most all of my
recordings. |
|
Listening: |
| If the
CD has a warning on it
regarding playing it
while driving, please
comply with this
warning. Read
instructions on the
inside cover of the CDs.
Make sure you will not
be interrupted by
anything when you
listen. The optimum time
to listen is early in
the day or before
sleeping (headphones
will assist with
focusing). If you fall
asleep in bed while
listening, try sitting
up, or sit in another
room of the house.
You’ll know if you’ve
fallen asleep because
you Won’t hear me guide
you back. If you hear me
guide you back and you
come back, you are NOT
asleep, just in a deeper
state of relaxation
(that’s good). If your
mind wanders in and out
of hearing the CD, that
is normal. If you have
intermittent thoughts,
that is normal.
Experiencing body
twitches and sensations
while listening is
normal. |
