#transform hypnosis

Transcript:

(00:00:00): In our first few episodes we determined some reasons that you might not be able to

(00:00:06): go into a trance easily,

(00:00:08): and identified some common issues with the content that you're engaging with.

(00:00:14): This way you'll know if that's the problem.

(00:00:17): At this point you might have some idea if it really is you,

(00:00:21): physiologically or psychologically,

(00:00:24): having difficulty going into trance.

(00:00:27): I've already outlined a few strategies for you to become a better subject,

(00:00:32): but today I'll present you with a variety of specific techniques that you can use

(00:00:38): to go deeper into trance.

(00:00:41): Most of these are things that you can do right away,

(00:00:44): right before you listen,

(00:00:45): so that you can jump right into trance.

(00:00:48): You might be asking, oh, do I really have to do stuff?

(00:00:52): Do I have to put in effort to make this work?

(00:00:55): Well, yeah, but I'm going to make this as easy as possible for you.

(00:00:59): You don't have to use all the techniques.

(00:01:02): You just have to use whatever sounds attractive to you.

(00:01:05): You'll know it sounds like fun, interesting.

(00:01:10): If it seems like it might be effective for you, well, it probably will be.

(00:01:15): I don't want you forcing yourself to do things you're uncomfortable with.

(00:01:19): That would defeat the purpose.

(00:01:22): We want you clear-minded, comfortable, and excited to go further.

(00:01:29): Now,

(00:01:29): if you're doing hypnosis live in person with your hypnotist standing directly in

(00:01:34): front of you,

(00:01:35): that's fantastic.

(00:01:36): That's got to be the optimum scenario.

(00:01:38): But most of us are listening to content online, and that means you have to use a device.

(00:01:47): So do your headphones sound good?

(00:01:50): Most cheap headphones are still going to sound better than whatever comes out of your phone speakers.

(00:01:58): But getting a decent set of mid-range headphones will improve the experience.

(00:02:06): Especially when someone goes to great lengths to make a high-quality recording.

(00:02:13): I like to listen to semi-professional studio headphones to make sure that my

(00:02:19): content sounds right,

(00:02:21): but a really cheap way to get great audio seems to be with these IEMs,

(00:02:27): inner ear monitors.

(00:02:30): They go into the ear and they tend to sound quite good.

(00:02:35): For my ear shape,

(00:02:37): they tend to fall out,

(00:02:39): but it's probably different for you and maybe you should try it out.

(00:02:44): Personally, I love my Sennheiser HD 650 headphones.

(00:02:50): They are a really good value, very accurate sounding, which is why I use it for making content.

(00:02:58): They do lack some bass, so I hooked it up to a iFi Zen DAC, which has a bass boost feature.

(00:03:09): Now, normally I wouldn't recommend that unless your headphones are lacking in bass.

(00:03:16): This is just a fantastic sounding combination for the money.

(00:03:22): Really well-known headphones in the audiophile community.

(00:03:26): For most people getting into the audio hobby, it is the entry high-end headphones.

(00:03:34): Personally,

(00:03:34): I love Sennheiser headphones because they focus on build quality and audio quality

(00:03:41): instead of appearances and marketing.

(00:03:45): It's not for everybody,

(00:03:46): but I've been daily driving mine for some eight-odd years now,

(00:03:53): and I've had zero issues besides the fact that they are kinda huge.

(00:03:59): You should also consider the kind of position that you're in while listening,

(00:04:03): because your headphones might get in the way or hurt your ears when you lie on your side.

(00:04:12): So figure out what works for you.

(00:04:14): You don't have to spend a bunch of money.

(00:04:17): Look at the reviews.

(00:04:18): See what's good for the price.

(00:04:21): Don't obsess over it because the more clarity that you get from your headphones,

(00:04:26): oftentimes the worse a bad recording can sound.

(00:04:32): After I got a set of decent headphones,

(00:04:34): I noticed that a lot of hypnosis content out there was kind of not listenable anymore.

(00:04:42): If it's exported in like 50 kilobytes per second, that's the data rate, it can sound really awful, man.

(00:04:51): The fidelity just becomes terrible.

(00:04:53): You notice like the scratchy digitalness.

(00:04:57): You start to hear those compression artifacts.

(00:05:02): Now I'm kind of wondering, does anyone use speakers to listen to hypnosis?

(00:05:08): Hit me up in the comments and let me know.

(00:05:11): We use binaural effects so often that we have to use the left and right ear

(00:05:17): together to create a sort of inner tone.

(00:05:21): Maybe if you have a properly set up two speaker thing on your left and right, maybe it's a cool effect.

(00:05:30): Something to experiment with, for sure.

(00:05:35): So,

(00:05:35): now that you have a decent device to listen on,

(00:05:39): let's talk about some quick techniques to get into a trance.

(00:05:45): The first technique is simply a quick stretch,

(00:05:49): because as you make the body more open and flexible,

(00:05:54): your mind reacts by becoming more open and flexible.

(00:05:59): Your physiology is related to your psychology.

(00:06:03): When you stretch, you are training yourself to let go, to allow.

(00:06:10): And it just gives you a good feeling, a sanity, a relaxation, and a relief.

(00:06:18): Experiments even show that you have a better pain tolerance after stretching.

(00:06:24): And it just makes sense.

(00:06:25): You just feel more open and allowing and, in general, better.

(00:06:30): Of course, you can find any guide for a stretching session online.

(00:06:36): They will all work great.

(00:06:38): But I did bump into this one video called The Only Three Stretches You Need for Better Flexibility.

(00:06:46): And it really is just three stretches that target the entire body.

(00:06:51): You could do each one for 30 seconds,

(00:06:55): and you could honestly complete your entire stretching session in 90 seconds,

(00:07:01): because there's only three.

(00:07:04): We are not looking to become a contortionist master, of course.

(00:07:10): We are just trying to loosen up a bit.

(00:07:13): And trust me, a 90-second stretch is far more than most people today get.

(00:07:21): And I'm willing to bet that you could blow away the average person in terms of

(00:07:26): flexibility with just that 90 seconds per day.

(00:07:30): If you're really into this type of thing,

(00:07:33): you could do entire yoga sessions because they train the mind and the body to be

(00:07:41): more open and receptive and allowing.

(00:07:45): And these are all things that are going to enhance your hypnosis experience.

(00:07:54): Meditation is also very similar to this.

(00:07:59): And the more you meditate, the better you will become at going into a hypnotic trance.

(00:08:06): They are very similar experiences.

(00:08:09): They both lower the brainwave state, kind of sending your mind into another realm.

(00:08:17): and as you get used to that you can go down faster and faster with practice there's

(00:08:26): all kinds of different meditation types from zen to movement and everything in

(00:08:31): between i won't go into the details on that

(00:08:36): I will show you a very effective meditation technique that only takes a few seconds

(00:08:44): to drop you into that zone real quick.

(00:08:49): This technique is called box breathing or square breathing.

(00:08:55): There's a few variations on this,

(00:08:57): but the basic idea is breathe in for four seconds,

(00:09:03): hold for four,

(00:09:05): breathe out for four,

(00:09:07): hold for four.

(00:09:10): This is a really quick way to drop into sleep or to drop into hypnosis really quick.

(00:09:19): It changes the brainwave levels incredibly fast.

(00:09:24): Remember, the four steps are breathe in, hold, breathe out, hold.

(00:09:35): Real simple.

(00:09:37): Let's actually try that right now just to see if it works well for you.

(00:09:42): I'll give you a moment and then I'll just start counting and you follow with your breath.

(00:10:47): 1, 2, 3, 4.

(00:10:50): Now if you did that correctly,

(00:10:52): you took about four deep breaths within one minute,

(00:10:59): and your brainwaves changed just in that one minute.

(00:11:06): It's a really incredible technique, and you can use that just before jumping into hypnosis.

(00:11:16): How did that make you feel?

(00:11:17): Let me know.

(00:11:18): Leave a comment so that other people can see as well what worked for you.

(00:11:23): And maybe it'll work for them.

(00:11:28): The next technique is rolling your eyes upwards to go deeper.

(00:11:35): Yes, you just push your eyes up.

(00:11:37): You don't have to go until it hurts.

(00:11:41): You just gently push them up.

(00:11:44): And this does something to your nerve system.

(00:11:48): It changes the brainwave frequencies.

(00:11:52): Now,

(00:11:52): if you're familiar with brainwaves,

(00:11:54): you might know that it goes from gamma to beta,

(00:11:58): alpha,

(00:11:59): theta,

(00:11:59): finally to delta,

(00:12:01): which is very,

(00:12:03): very deep sleep.

(00:12:05): And I know that rolling up your eyes seems to take you down into alpha wave.

(00:12:12): So that's from the beta wave of around 20 hertz to alpha wave of about 10 hertz.

(00:12:21): And perhaps it could take you into theta.

(00:12:25): I don't know.

(00:12:27): That would be around 6 hertz.

(00:12:30): Now, does it take you infinitely down all the way to delta?

(00:12:35): I'm not sure.

(00:12:37): It is a bit challenging to do that sort of thing.

(00:12:41): So you could do this at any time as a deepener.

(00:12:47): Definitely something to experiment with because it is so quick and effective.

(00:12:54): In fact, you might be able to combine it with square breathing to give you a really good effect.

(00:13:03): I have tried it myself, and it does seem to work.

(00:13:08): In fact, it kind of makes the brainwave lowering creep up on you.

(00:13:14): While your eyes are pushed up, you don't really notice it happening.

(00:13:18): And then when you stop, it's kind of like, whoa, I didn't realize I had dropped there.

(00:13:25): So, interesting effect.

(00:13:28): I would like to note that there is a fantastic Qigong variation of the box

(00:13:35): breathing called abdominal breathing,

(00:13:38): which you won't find if you Google abdominal breathing.

(00:13:42): You would only find this in a Qigong book.

(00:13:46): It's basically the same thing,

(00:13:48): but you push in on that area just below your belly button as you breathe out,

(00:13:55): and then you release it as you breathe in.

(00:13:59): a very simple technique but very good for your health and not to be underestimated

(00:14:09): the next one is going to be basically sleep paralysis which may sound a little bit

(00:14:16): uncomfortable or frightening for some because that's a bit of a nightmare when you

(00:14:23): wake up and you can't move it's a thing that happens to some people

(00:14:28): In my culture,

(00:14:29): it's often called the old hag,

(00:14:33): because traditionally you would have a vision of an old hag laying on top of you.

(00:14:40): I don't know why that particular superstition came about, but we are going to induce that feeling.

(00:14:49): Have you ever had that sensation when you wake up, but it feels like your body kind of can't move?

(00:14:57): for some people it feels really serious and powerful over them like they can't move

(00:15:03): at all and for some it's that sensation like you could move if you really wanted

(00:15:09): but every time you make a bit of effort it's like it just doesn't happen but we can

(00:15:15): induce this sort of experience and it can feel very hypnotic you basically just lie

(00:15:24): there completely motionless

(00:15:28): for about 10, 20, maybe 30 minutes, and you're going to get that sensation of your body going to sleep.

(00:15:39): This can be very pleasant and relaxing, and it can help you to go into trance.

(00:15:51): Next let's talk about the vagus nerve,

(00:15:55): which is particularly important if you have issues with nervousness,

(00:16:01): which I totally understand.

(00:16:04): And basically, it's a nerve in your neck area, and it influences your parasympathetic system.

(00:16:13): That's your fight or flight system.

(00:16:16): There's a number of ways to stimulate or tone your vagus nerve to induce relaxation,

(00:16:25): improve digestion,

(00:16:28): and get you into that state of mind where you can go into a trance more easily.

(00:16:33): vagal toning or stimulation of the vagus nerve is a discussion in of itself,

(00:16:40): so I can't go into too much detail.

(00:16:44): but you can stimulate it with a splash of cold water on your face or on your body.

(00:16:50): You can do it with movements and touch,

(00:16:54): breathing exercises,

(00:16:56): you can make sounds,

(00:16:57): you can do eye movements,

(00:17:00): things like that.

(00:17:01): I'm no expert on the subject, but I do know that it's a great thing to get into.

(00:17:10): Okay, it's time to get a little bit edgy because I'm going to start talking about microdosing.

(00:17:17): And that is when you take a very small amount of a substance,

(00:17:22): usually a psychedelic,

(00:17:25): and this will cause an extra inspiration.

(00:17:30): Now in terms of drugs and alcohol,

(00:17:32): many people will want to use a regular dose or even a high dose of that to try to

(00:17:39): get a hypnotic effect.

(00:17:42): But the basic rule is that yes, those things can enhance the experience, but less is more.

(00:17:53): Because if you take too much, it really ruins the experience.

(00:17:58): If you get too inebriated, you can't focus properly and it won't work on you.

(00:18:05): And you really need a lot less than you think.

(00:18:10): That's why I always say less is more when it comes to these things.

(00:18:17): That's why maybe you could try a microdose.

(00:18:21): Psychedelics in an extremely low dosage,

(00:18:25): I'm talking like barely even perceptible,

(00:18:28): they give you an effect of increased energy and productivity.

(00:18:34): In fact, personally, I think this is the correct way to use a psychedelic.

(00:18:40): And anything that you can feel would be an overdose.

(00:18:46): It should be subtle.

(00:18:47): It should feel like you.

(00:18:50): It's an enhancement to you,

(00:18:53): not something that takes over you and alters your mind,

(00:18:58): which may sound like a good thing.

(00:19:00): It may sound like what you want to achieve, like what you're doing with hypnosis.

(00:19:06): But actually, that substance is taking over you rather than the direction of the hypnosis.

(00:19:15): Your tolerances can go up very quickly with psychedelics.

(00:19:20): That's why I most recommend only doing it every three to four days so that you

(00:19:25): don't build up any tolerance.

(00:19:27): But I have found that it's best to go about a week to make sure that it's really fresh for you.

(00:19:36): The timing is up to you.

(00:19:39): I've also considered that if you would like to continuously microdose,

(00:19:44): you could do something different on a different day of the week.

(00:19:50): Now this discussion could span an entire episode, but I will briefly go over a few different substances.

(00:19:59): Marijuana is increasingly legalized, so let's talk about that.

(00:20:05): It's a plant that naturally relaxes the body, opens the mind, and increases your sensations.

(00:20:15): So naturally, that's an interesting place to start.

(00:20:19): There's a number of different strains and qualities of marijuana.

(00:20:24): So different types are actually going to have a different effect.

(00:20:29): There are some that are more heady and give you more of a head buzz.

(00:20:35): There are some that will relax the body more.

(00:20:39): But really you want to go for a high CBD strain because that's the part that gives

(00:20:45): you the extra clarity,

(00:20:48): the lowered inflammation,

(00:20:51): the medical benefits,

(00:20:53): and you know that it's probably grown from actual soil rather than some kind of

(00:20:59): laboratory fluid,

(00:21:01): which is how they get high THC out of most of what they sell today.

(00:21:08): Again, a small amount works better because too much will make your mind wander.

(00:21:15): Now, this can be a good recreational experience for you because that might be what you're into.

(00:21:21): That might be the kind of experience you're looking for.

(00:21:24): If you'd like to fall into a dreamscape without the hypnosis having any actual

(00:21:31): lasting effects,

(00:21:34): then that could be fantastic for you.

(00:21:37): Otherwise, stick with the less is more approach.

(00:21:42): An important thing you should note on using substances like this under trance is

(00:21:48): that the effects will be more pronounced when you are using the substance again.

(00:21:55): Because your brain associates them together.

(00:22:00): That's why some people say if you study high, you need to take the test while you're high.

(00:22:08): This is true, though I must add, studying sober works better than studying high.

(00:22:16): What I like about a microdose is that this effect is not very strong because you're

(00:22:21): not really high during those moments.

(00:22:24): That way,

(00:22:25): what you learned during your session can still work outside of the session,

(00:22:31): even when you're not using the substance.

(00:22:36): The next is psilocybin mushrooms.

(00:22:39): These are essentially about connection and closeness, open-mindedness, and emotions.

(00:22:51): Too much of this can very quickly make you think things that don't make any sense.

(00:22:58): In high dosage, it can even make you hallucinate.

(00:23:03): If you're doing something that requires you to connect with yourself or the people,

(00:23:08): the world around you in order to accomplish your goal,

(00:23:12): this is a great one to microdose.

(00:23:15): It can put a lot of emotion into what you're doing.

(00:23:19): It can help you follow your natural intuition.

(00:23:23): Mushrooms are a natural part of the world, and they have a message for us.

(00:23:31): I think it's best to take some advice from them every now and then, but still remain human.

(00:23:37): I like to think of mushrooms as encouraging connection because a fungus reaches out

(00:23:45): and spreads its mycelium.

(00:23:49): It may not look like it, but a spread of mushrooms are often a single plant.

(00:23:56): one fungi.

(00:23:58): These sprouting bodies are just different parts of that one fungi.

(00:24:04): It breaks down rotting plant materials and turns it into something else.

(00:24:09): It processes, it integrates, and it teaches us to do these things.

(00:24:15): To connect, to process, to integrate.

(00:24:19): It shows us that we are all one.

(00:24:22): We are here together.

(00:24:27): Next up is LSD or acid.

(00:24:30): This one you have to be very careful with because it is a lab-created substance,

(00:24:38): but it can be used to shake things up,

(00:24:42): make you more creative,

(00:24:44): enhance your enthusiasm.

(00:24:48): I think that the dosages that most people use this are completely pointless,

(00:24:54): because at that point it will just make you see a bunch of stupid stuff,

(00:24:59): it mixes up your sensory inputs,

(00:25:03): and overall just really muddies things.

(00:25:06): But that's just my opinion.

(00:25:11): next is ketamine a literal tranquilizer and we're seeing a lot of scientific study

(00:25:19): on this as a cure for depression sort of used once a month and you experience this

(00:25:27): deep relaxation and then you feel better and it lasts for quite a while

(00:25:34): So I would like to see some more studies on that,

(00:25:37): and I would like you to explore that medically if you can.

(00:25:42): Because it looks like an incredibly promising treatment.

(00:25:48): Now I don't have any experience with this,

(00:25:50): but I do think that this has got to be useful for enhancing your hypnotic experience.

(00:25:59): I mean,

(00:25:59): what if part of that medical treatment involved going into a state of hypnosis

(00:26:05): while you are really relaxed by this substance?

(00:26:11): It's got to be an amazing feeling,

(00:26:13): taking that hypnosis deep,

(00:26:15): deep into you,

(00:26:17): really integrating it into you.

(00:26:20): we really need to begin exploring that avenue as a possibility because the world

(00:26:25): needs so much more tranquility right now.

(00:26:32): And you already know about alcohol.

(00:26:35): It's not typically the best substance on earth,

(00:26:38): but maybe one little drink could help you,

(00:26:43): provided you're not an alcoholic,

(00:26:44): of course,

(00:26:46): provided you really can just have one drink

(00:26:50): because it's very easy to go overboard with it.

(00:26:55): And hypnosis does not work at all on drunk people.

(00:27:02): Maybe for some people, but for most, you're just not going to get the effect that you want.

(00:27:09): So again, we are back to less is more.

(00:27:17): So on to personal nutrition.

(00:27:19): Again, this one could be an entire episode.

(00:27:23): There is no limit to how deep you can go on that and how individual it is because

(00:27:30): we all have different eating habits.

(00:27:33): We're all eating different foods.

(00:27:34): We have different needs.

(00:27:36): How much of this nutrient do you have in your diet and are you low on this, too high on that?

(00:27:42): It goes really deep and complex.

(00:27:45): So basically making sure you have the nutrients necessary to have a clear mind and a calm body.

(00:27:55): There are a few supplements that I will mention briefly.

(00:27:59): You can go into your own research on them to really find what's right for you.

(00:28:05): Remember, none of this is medical advice.

(00:28:08): Do your own research.

(00:28:11): But let's talk banana tea.

(00:28:13): And it's not really a tea.

(00:28:15): I'm talking about water boiled with a banana.

(00:28:19): When you drink this water, you're going to feel incredibly relaxed.

(00:28:25): It feels so, so good.

(00:28:28): You have to try it.

(00:28:30): I don't know if it's the combination of the plant form of magnesium and potassium

(00:28:35): and whatever that's in the peel and the banana.

(00:28:38): I just know it super relaxes you.

(00:28:41): And if you drink this before a hypnosis session, it's going to be awesome.

(00:28:47): i have drank it myself and i've seen other people drink it and their face like

(00:28:52): droops and you feel kind of like you're stoned without getting high so get a banana

(00:29:00): preferably organic not just for taste but because the peel often has a lot of

(00:29:06): pesticides

(00:29:07): Then rinse off the peel real good,

(00:29:10): take the sticker off,

(00:29:11): rinse all that really good,

(00:29:13): and chop the ends off just for taste.

(00:29:17): Make sure it's a ripe banana because the water is going to taste like the ripeness of the banana.

(00:29:25): Drop the whole thing in, peel and all, into a small pot of water.

(00:29:31): Just enough water to barely cover the top of the banana.

(00:29:36): That will give you a good water to banana ratio to make it as strong as possible.

(00:29:41): Maybe you'd want to cut the banana in half to fit it in the pot properly.

(00:29:46): Boil it for about 10 minutes and then throw away the banana.

(00:29:51): Put a little cinnamon, maybe some sweetener in there for taste.

(00:29:57): And then drink it down and listen to a hypnosis file.

(00:30:02): And you're going to go into a world of bliss.

(00:30:07): If you have trouble relaxing, this is the one for you.

(00:30:13): Your body will melt.

(00:30:17): This is largely because of the magnesium that's in the banana peel.

(00:30:24): Magnesium is a really important nutrient that most of us don't get enough of.

(00:30:29): It's really important for strong teeth and bones and muscles and just everything in the body.

(00:30:37): And it helps you to relax.

(00:30:40): So you could straight up just take magnesium.

(00:30:45): Probably the fastest and cheapest magnesium is called magnesium citrate.

(00:30:51): You can often get this in a sweetened powder form,

(00:30:55): and it hits you quick and makes you feel really nice and relaxed.

(00:31:00): The problem with magnesium citrate is that it can speed up your bowel movements.

(00:31:06): So you can make sure that you get the dosage correct.

(00:31:10): But a lot of people have moved on to magnesium bisglycinate.

(00:31:16): And I don't think it works quite as fast.

(00:31:19): I don't think it's quite as relaxing.

(00:31:21): But it does fulfill your nutrient requirements and it does relax you.

(00:31:26): This is a combination of magnesium and an amino acid known as glycine.

(00:31:33): which is good for sleep and it also can give you some wild dreams.

(00:31:39): Overall,

(00:31:40): glycine is gaining a lot of traction for all of the health benefits that it has,

(00:31:47): particularly a couple of new studies showing that when you combine it with NAC,

(00:31:53): N-acetylcysteine,

(00:31:55): it seems to make you live longer.

(00:31:59): But I digress.

(00:32:01): There is a relatively new form of curcumin called curcumin meriva,

(00:32:08): and that one's showing a lot of promise in terms of relaxation and relief,

(00:32:15): lowered inflammation,

(00:32:17): and some extraordinary health benefits.

(00:32:20): Do your own research.

(00:32:21): We are gaining more knowledge on these things every day.

(00:32:25): That one doesn't really have an immediate effect, but here's one that does.

(00:32:32): It's called niacin, particularly the nicotinic acid version of it.

(00:32:39): There's a lot of discussion in the health community on which form of niacin is best.

(00:32:47): We have discovered that nicotinic acid might not be the best form of it,

(00:32:53): terms of health and longevity but it does have a very nice effect that most do not

(00:33:02): talk about and it's quite powerful and you can feel it within minutes it's called

(00:33:09): the niacin flush and if you've ever experienced it you know it's something

(00:33:17): Get the dosage correct because too much will make you very uncomfortable very fast.

(00:33:24): The niacin flush causes this rush of blood through the body up to the skin.

(00:33:32): It can cause this redness and if you take too much it will cause itchiness and make you really hot.

(00:33:42): But if you take just the right amount,

(00:33:46): it can make you feel warm,

(00:33:48): social,

(00:33:50): relaxed,

(00:33:52): open,

(00:33:52): and pleasurable.

(00:33:55): You'll know you took the right amount of this because you'll get just a tiny little flush on your skin.

(00:34:03): Maybe you might notice one or two little spots here and there where a little

(00:34:08): temporary redness has occurred.

(00:34:11): And then it goes away in a couple of minutes.

(00:34:15): You don't just get a little happiness and comfort boost along with that blood flow.

(00:34:20): Most people also get quite horny and stimulated.

(00:34:27): Yes,

(00:34:28): it makes you turned on,

(00:34:29): which is why you might want to try this if you are interested in doing some erotic hypnosis.

(00:34:38): Remember, the no-flush version of this vitamin will not cause any of these effects.

(00:34:47): My friends and I found that of those little 500 milligram tablets,

(00:34:54): you could bite off one third of it and still get the effect,

(00:34:59): maybe even too much of the effect.

(00:35:03): I believe they came in those large dosages because people who take it regularly,

(00:35:09): people who are doing high dosage niacin,

(00:35:12): they don't get the effect because the body gets so used to it.

(00:35:18): Now if you take too much of that and you get the flush and you get really uncomfortable,

(00:35:23): you get hot,

(00:35:23): you get really itchy,

(00:35:26): it's okay.

(00:35:28): It's a simple B vitamin, it's water soluble, and you will pee it out.

(00:35:35): You drink some water, you wait 20 minutes, you'll be fine.

(00:35:39): I have definitely experienced it myself after taking a full tablet,

(00:35:45): having a panic attack when really I was completely fine,

(00:35:51): and I've seen it happen to my friends when they took an entire tablet.

(00:35:56): And the result is pretty hilarious.

(00:36:01): They always think their skin is on fire.

(00:36:03): They're insanely itchy.

(00:36:06): And they become crazy horny at the same time.

(00:36:09): It is a really funny spectacle, but you don't really want to go through it yourself.

(00:36:17): Another amino acid worth looking into is theanine,

(00:36:21): which people often use for extra clarity and for improving their sleep.

(00:36:28): And that's an indicator that that might work well for hypnosis.

(00:36:35): So there's so many different things to talk about,

(00:36:37): so many different possibilities with nutrition and substances that you probably did

(00:36:44): not even realize.

(00:36:47): But now we have scratched the surface.

(00:36:50): Remember to do your own research.

(00:36:54): I am not responsible for whatever you take.

(00:36:58): I have outlined a number of products and techniques for you to try.

(00:37:05): Just as a reminder,

(00:37:06): we talked about headphones,

(00:37:09): stretching,

(00:37:11): meditation,

(00:37:13): square breathing,

(00:37:15): rolling your eyes up,

(00:37:17): laying perfectly still,

(00:37:20): exploring vagus nerve techniques,

(00:37:23): psychedelic micro doses,

(00:37:26): banana tea,

(00:37:29): magnesium, glycine, curcumin, nicotinic acid, glycine, theanine,

(00:37:39): And I'm sure there's plenty more.

(00:37:41): And if you know anything,

(00:37:43): please leave a comment so that we can discuss and figure out these things because

(00:37:49): we all want to go deeper into hypnosis.

(00:37:54): And public discussions on this can be so helpful.

(00:37:58): If you have any issues with what I've said today and you need to make some

(00:38:02): corrections for all of us,

(00:38:04): please share it because we want this to be optimum.

(00:38:12): Also,

(00:38:12): wouldn't it be cool to have a customized supplement that combines a number of

(00:38:18): things made specifically to enhance hypnosis?

(00:38:24): Wouldn't that be cool?

(00:38:25): I think that's a bit beyond my scope, but it would be really cool for the hypno-lovers out there.

(00:38:35): Again,

(00:38:35): get into the public discussion on this in the comments so that we can figure out

(00:38:41): these techniques.

(00:38:44): Share your experiences and questions.

(00:38:47): Your input is really valuable.

(00:38:52): I'm Jackson Stock, and thank you so much for listening today.

Transcript

(00:00:00):

People come to me all the time and they say,

(00:00:03):

wow,

(00:00:05):

I thought that hypnosis just didn't work on me until I tried your files.

(00:00:12):

It took a little bit of practice and tweaking to get there, but now it seems like I have unlocked

(00:00:20):

my own formula and the formula for your effectiveness might turn out different but

(00:00:28):

i invite you to use parts of my formula within yours remember we are all here

(00:00:35):

together

(00:00:36):

I want to see people creating good content that works.

(00:00:42):

Because when I first saw hypnosis content on the internet, I was completely in awe of the possibilities.

(00:00:51):

It was this magical world where anything could be created.

(00:00:56):

The body, the mind, working together to create anything.

(00:01:02):

You could change who you are, your shape, your identity.

(00:01:06):

You could change your body, your thoughts, your habits and ideas.

(00:01:12):

You could experience anything erotic or therapeutic.

(00:01:17):

I found these huge libraries of audio files all over the internet.

(00:01:23):

But that dream kind of came crashing down, because a lot of them just didn't work.

(00:01:31):

And it makes one think, is there something wrong with me?

(00:01:36):

In the previous episode,

(00:01:38):

I talked all about making yourself more susceptible to hypnosis and making it work

(00:01:44):

for you.

(00:01:46):

Today I'm going to talk about how to make hypnosis content that works.

(00:01:52):

This will help you to make original content or to edit someone else's content to your own desires.

(00:02:00):

Of course,

(00:02:01):

you shouldn't publish someone else's content as your own,

(00:02:05):

but I know plenty of people chop up hypnosis content and put it together in their

(00:02:11):

own way for their own usage.

(00:02:15):

Now first you're going to need the right equipment,

(00:02:19):

though in my beginning I recorded on a simple gaming headset.

(00:02:25):

You know, one of those little microphones that sticks out from the headphones.

(00:02:30):

And no one ever complained about the audio quality.

(00:02:35):

I just made sure that my mouth was the correct distance,

(00:02:39):

the volume levels were good,

(00:02:41):

and the backgrounds were decent.

(00:02:44):

And no one complained.

(00:02:46):

So just remember that it doesn't have to be perfect.

(00:02:51):

After all,

(00:02:52):

famous YouTuber Casey Neistat once said that it's not about the camera that you

(00:02:58):

have or the quality of it all.

(00:03:01):

It's about the story that you tell and the way you communicate.

(00:03:06):

The content is what matters, but it is nice to make sure that there is no background noise.

(00:03:14):

You don't want noise coming from your computer, and you don't want echo or reverb on your microphone.

(00:03:23):

Personally,

(00:03:23):

I like to use a dynamic type microphone,

(00:03:27):

which is commonly used by podcasters and such,

(00:03:32):

because it cuts out a lot of that noise that is around the microphone,

(00:03:38):

or distant from it,

(00:03:39):

or off-axis from it.

(00:03:42):

It also kind of gives you that warm broadcaster sound that you're hearing right now.

(00:03:49):

Now these dynamic microphones do often pick up an electrical hiss,

(00:03:55):

this constant hum that comes from the frequency of the electricity in the room,

(00:04:02):

and you can take that out with a simple noise cancellation.

(00:04:06):

I like to hook up my microphone to a small preamp because I do not speak very loudly,

(00:04:13):

and this will bump up the volume of my speech.

(00:04:19):

Then that connects to an audio interface, which translates it digitally via USB to a USB port on the PC.

(00:04:31):

I use a PC case from a German manufacturer called BeQuiet.

(00:04:37):

They always come with quiet fans and hard drive mounts that are soft,

(00:04:43):

sound deadening and all that stuff.

(00:04:46):

But realistically, any modern PC case is going to be much better than we had years ago.

(00:04:54):

I find that two large fans work fine in the PC.

(00:04:59):

One intake and one exhaust.

(00:05:02):

120mm or 140mm, not a big deal.

(00:05:09):

For the average PC, two case fans is fine.

(00:05:14):

And with today's technology,

(00:05:15):

you might not even need a hard drive,

(00:05:19):

which can make all kinds of loud random noises.

(00:05:23):

And then a nice tower cooler on your CPU goes a long way to keep fan speeds down.

(00:05:31):

If you're recording with a laptop, it's probably no problem.

(00:05:36):

Just close out any other programs so that your fans are not ramping up.

(00:05:42):

But please use a dedicated microphone.

(00:05:45):

Don't just record it through the microphone on your phone or mobile device or on your laptop.

(00:05:53):

Plug in some kind of microphone and it's going to be way, way better.

(00:05:59):

Now,

(00:05:59):

the way you speak is going to be your own individual thing,

(00:06:05):

so I can't really comment on that too much.

(00:06:08):

Just make sure that you are clear and you're in a good position.

(00:06:13):

You might want to stand up to have a more full,

(00:06:18):

dynamic voice,

(00:06:20):

or you might want to sit down to be really chill.

(00:06:24):

Listen back to your recording and see what it sounds like.

(00:06:29):

Of course, don't be too critical, as no one really likes the sound of their own voice on recording.

(00:06:37):

You can use a pop filter,

(00:06:39):

a little piece of material that goes over your microphone that prevents a popping

(00:06:46):

sound when you make a P sound.

(00:06:49):

That's the air blowing over the microphone.

(00:06:52):

But I find a good solution is to just offset the microphone to the side a little

(00:06:58):

bit so that you're not blowing on it every time you make that P sound.

(00:07:03):

Get the appropriate distance so that you're not breathing on the mic too much.

(00:07:10):

Be mindful that you're not bumping anything because that can make a loud sound and

(00:07:16):

it's pretty annoying when you're listening to hypnosis.

(00:07:21):

Even a tiny tap on your microphone can sound quite loud for the listener.

(00:07:28):

Now let's say you're not using your microphone at all.

(00:07:32):

Maybe you create the voice digitally through a text-to-speech program.

(00:07:41):

In practice,

(00:07:41):

this kind of thing usually doesn't sound very good,

(00:07:46):

but there are a number of people that do it right,

(00:07:50):

and it sounds really,

(00:07:52):

really good.

(00:07:55):

I can't tell you the techniques that they are using,

(00:07:59):

but maybe you could listen around and try and find those creators that are using that,

(00:08:06):

and see if they'll give you a few tips.

(00:08:10):

I do know that using the traditional built-in Microsoft voices can be horrendous at

(00:08:18):

worst and comical at best.

(00:08:23):

But even then, some people use those voices and they tweak them a certain way and it sounds pretty good.

(00:08:30):

Now,

(00:08:30):

you are in luck if text-to-speech is something you use or you want to get into at

(00:08:36):

the moment,

(00:08:37):

because we have a lot of new AI models working on that right now.

(00:08:44):

These machine learning models are working themselves out as we speak, getting better and better.

(00:08:53):

They are so good that they can imitate the voices of famous people.

(00:09:01):

Kind of frightening implications,

(00:09:04):

but I'm sure there's plenty of made-up voices for you to use and experiment with.

(00:09:12):

These voices are sounding quite good.

(00:09:17):

you will have to play around with them and tweak them so that they get the right intonations and timing.

(00:09:27):

You will have to work closely with it and edit the audio yourself and the timing

(00:09:33):

with it so that it sounds more natural.

(00:09:37):

I don't know how to use this stuff.

(00:09:39):

I just know that I'm hearing it all over the web and it's getting better,

(00:09:45):

so you have an opportunity there.

(00:09:50):

Now, I can't explain everything that works, but let's talk about the basics of making hypnosis work.

(00:09:58):

I'm talking in the audio content creation here because it is a bit different when you are in person.

(00:10:08):

A lot of these techniques that you learn in person don't work in an audio file.

(00:10:16):

They might involve checks or deepeners.

(00:10:20):

Anything that involves interaction with the viewer is not possible when we are creating audio.

(00:10:29):

Though some of it might apply when you're doing it live to someone over the internet.

(00:10:36):

The funny thing is you see people with all of their certifications, all their training courses and such.

(00:10:45):

Those things are great, but they may not provide you with the natural delivery that works best.

(00:10:55):

or something that works best via audio file.

(00:11:00):

Going by a script is fine and typically necessary at first, even for quite a while.

(00:11:10):

But after learning a certain number of techniques, you often go beyond technique.

(00:11:18):

You begin to kind of just do it.

(00:11:23):

It can be a bit conversational, and people love to experience it in that way.

(00:11:31):

It makes them feel that it's normal and natural,

(00:11:34):

and there's no pressure on them to go into some state of trance.

(00:11:40):

You kind of sneak your way in there, so to speak.

(00:11:45):

So one of the best ways to go into this is to have no script,

(00:11:51):

or I think even better,

(00:11:53):

is a basic,

(00:11:55):

simple script.

(00:11:57):

Kind of a list or jot notes of what you want to talk about and create.

(00:12:05):

Now this is a bit advanced.

(00:12:07):

I do recommend in the beginning that you literally just write out what you're going

(00:12:12):

to say or what you're going to make your program say or whatever.

(00:12:19):

This naturalness comes after you get your voice and get some practice in understanding what works.

(00:12:31):

Next is what I think might be the most important thing.

(00:12:37):

And if there's one thing that I'd like you to take from this entire talk, it is this.

(00:12:44):

Be all positive.

(00:12:48):

Yes, every single thing that you say should be in a positive light.

(00:12:55):

And that means literally using only positive words.

(00:13:02):

For example, I will rarely ever say the word bad.

(00:13:06):

I won't even go that far.

(00:13:09):

I will often say not so good or not ideal.

(00:13:16):

In those situations, I'm using a negative positive.

(00:13:21):

I won't even say the words let go of the stress of the day.

(00:13:25):

I will just say let go of everything.

(00:13:33):

You may or may not be aware of the vibration of this.

(00:13:38):

But take a moment to feel into that.

(00:13:41):

Feel the difference of that.

(00:13:45):

Let go of your stresses.

(00:13:47):

For some, that might be okay.

(00:13:49):

They might say, oh, that sounds like a good, nice thing.

(00:13:53):

I've had a stressful day.

(00:13:56):

And for others that are already in a relaxed, good mood, they're kind of like, what?

(00:14:03):

I'm not stressed.

(00:14:05):

In fact, you're kind of making me stressed by assuming that I am stressed for some reason.

(00:14:12):

It is so, so common for people to say things like this.

(00:14:18):

I've heard this from people doing live hypnosis, hypnotherapy,

(00:14:24):

audios of every niche and topic.

(00:14:28):

It is so common, and I cannot blame you for doing it, but it does need to change.

(00:14:37):

Everything that you say needs to be in a positive light.

(00:14:45):

Even if I'm doing some kind of dark or evil roleplay,

(00:14:52):

I keep everything as positive and playful as possible so that no one experiences a

(00:15:00):

bad trigger and we keep the vibe as high as possible.

(00:15:06):

It is especially important to keep positivity when a subject is under hypnosis

(00:15:14):

because they are susceptible and we want only positive suggestions to go into them.

(00:15:22):

Remember, this is a rewiring a brain.

(00:15:27):

And positivity is what makes everything work.

(00:15:31):

Even in the workplace,

(00:15:34):

most experiments show that positive comments will provide you with much more benefit,

(00:15:42):

better results,

(00:15:44):

and better output than negative feedback.

(00:15:50):

This is simply the nature of things.

(00:15:52):

Good things come from good things.

(00:15:57):

After all, hypnosis is just a heightened state that connects to the law of attraction.

(00:16:06):

Like attracts like.

(00:16:09):

You don't have to be shouting glee from the rooftops.

(00:16:14):

I'm certainly no manic pixie myself.

(00:16:18):

I'm pretty monotone.

(00:16:20):

That's just how I talk.

(00:16:22):

But my choice of always keeping it positive makes for not just an easy listening experience,

(00:16:31):

but something that works.

(00:16:34):

Something that creates something positive in your life.

(00:16:40):

I think that's pretty simple.

(00:16:42):

Now on to the next thing.

(00:16:44):

People have a little bit of an attention issue today.

(00:16:49):

It's no surprise when you look around that our attention spans are dwindling.

(00:16:57):

So let's work with that.

(00:16:59):

In fact, it challenges us to be better by making our content less boring.

(00:17:10):

That means capturing the listener or viewer's attention the moment that you start.

(00:17:18):

Perhaps you noticed that I jumped right into this recording without a bunch of preamble,

(00:17:26):

and that is pretty typical of my content.

(00:17:29):

I'm kind of

(00:17:31):

calling out a lot of people here when I say this,

(00:17:33):

but I did not start this talk by saying,

(00:17:38):

welcome to Jack's Hypnosis,

(00:17:40):

where we help you with this and that,

(00:17:43):

and we talk about all these kinds of things,

(00:17:45):

and here's who I am,

(00:17:47):

and here's what I do,

(00:17:48):

and here's why you should listen to me,

(00:17:50):

and oh,

(00:17:51):

roll that 30 second intro,

(00:17:54):

but not before I tell you about our sponsor,

(00:17:58):

and blah blah blah blah blah,

(00:18:00):

And then maybe give an explanation of what hypnosis is.

(00:18:03):

And then the warnings, never listen while driving and taking medications, blah, blah, blah, blah.

(00:18:10):

And then some big, long, slow induction for 30 minutes.

(00:18:16):

And I know some people don't mind that kind of thing.

(00:18:19):

They like a long induction.

(00:18:21):

They don't mind a nice intro,

(00:18:25):

but I know that half the people out there are figuratively punching the air right now,

(00:18:31):

like,

(00:18:32):

yes,

(00:18:33):

stop that shit.

(00:18:35):

Get on with it.

(00:18:37):

Just start it.

(00:18:38):

The people want their content.

(00:18:42):

So make your content start with the very first sentence.

(00:18:50):

It's almost a pretend intro when you do it this way.

(00:18:54):

And the listener does not realize that it's starting already and that they're

(00:18:59):

having thoughts of it in the first sentence.

(00:19:03):

You're getting it started.

(00:19:06):

You're going to start off with something where the subject doesn't need to be in trance for it to work.

(00:19:15):

For example, if I was going to help you become a better public speaker,

(00:19:21):

I would start off my first sentence by saying,

(00:19:25):

Wouldn't it be nice to be clear,

(00:19:28):

confident,

(00:19:29):

and precise whenever you speak to people?

(00:19:34):

Even if it's more than one person at a time.

(00:19:37):

Even if it's many people at once.

(00:19:43):

Just that first sentence primes them for confidence and capability.

(00:19:50):

And let's just say that person still needs a whole lot more confidence points to

(00:19:57):

get up to that level of being the perfect public speaker.

(00:20:02):

Well, I just boosted them up one or two points, and they're already on their way.

(00:20:08):

They've got their first stepping stones to dive in.

(00:20:12):

Now they're already confident enough to go further.

(00:20:17):

And they didn't have to wait for it.

(00:20:20):

They didn't have to endure anything to get to that point.

(00:20:25):

It's like, bang, delivered right to them the second they pressed the button.

(00:20:30):

What a VIP experience.

(00:20:35):

Then you can blend the induction into the content of what the listener wants or your intentions.

(00:20:44):

You could say something like, relaxation grants a sense of confidence.

(00:20:51):

And that's a little hypnotic hint to go deeper.

(00:20:55):

You're just nudging them down a little bit.

(00:20:59):

And you do that for a little while,

(00:21:01):

and then maybe after five or ten minutes,

(00:21:04):

you might mention how they feel a bit heavier than before.

(00:21:11):

Oh hey, maybe you notice that you're feeling heavier and more relaxed than you were a few minutes ago.

(00:21:21):

That's perfectly natural and normal.

(00:21:25):

There are a lot of people listening that are already feeling that.

(00:21:30):

For some, it's this whoa, huge effect, and for others, it's a little hint, a little nudge.

(00:21:38):

And that's all you're doing, just nudging and nudging.

(00:21:43):

And then you could say something that implies that they are feeling heavy,

(00:21:49):

or maybe their eyes are feeling heavy.

(00:21:53):

Hey, did you notice that your eyes feel a bit heavy?

(00:21:59):

And then you could say, allow your mind to take you down deeper.

(00:22:06):

It's important to always keep going deeper.

(00:22:11):

But you don't just say, go deeper.

(00:22:15):

Because the subject kind of thinks, what does that mean?

(00:22:19):

How do I do that?

(00:22:21):

They get confused and then they're like, oh, I must not be very good at going deeper.

(00:22:27):

No, go deeper is a strange command in itself.

(00:22:33):

So let's break down the example that I gave you.

(00:22:38):

Allow your mind to take you deeper.

(00:22:43):

There's a few layers to that.

(00:22:46):

the first command is allow and that in itself is enough to take you deeper because

(00:22:56):

that state of going deeper is the state of allowing and even just that you could

(00:23:03):

expand on that word allow you could say let yourself drop when you drop let go into

(00:23:13):

the ease

(00:23:15):

Let what happens happen.

(00:23:19):

That's what allowing is.

(00:23:23):

Let's break down the next part.

(00:23:25):

Your mind.

(00:23:28):

First is the word you.

(00:23:30):

And that grabs the listener's attention.

(00:23:34):

It's the cocktail effect.

(00:23:35):

It's like hearing your name.

(00:23:38):

This is directed at you.

(00:23:41):

So you end up paying attention right away.

(00:23:45):

Then there's the phrase, your mind, which is often subconsciously interpreted as your mind.

(00:23:57):

The subject might even consciously mistake it for that,

(00:24:02):

especially if you're doing this in an erotic context.

(00:24:08):

and then the instruction to go deeper but now the listener has a method they have

(00:24:16):

the how they know that they have to allow their mind and it will take them there so

(00:24:25):

the instruction is no longer to go deeper

(00:24:29):

It's to do what they need to do to go deeper.

(00:24:34):

Oh, now it makes sense.

(00:24:37):

Now you've got your viewer.

(00:24:40):

Now they're going into that highly susceptible place.

(00:24:44):

Now their brainwaves are slowing down.

(00:24:48):

Now they're beginning to feel that bliss of trance creeping in.

(00:24:55):

And it feels like they didn't have to try.

(00:25:00):

And I like to avoid using numbers of deeper,

(00:25:04):

like people will say 10 times deeper,

(00:25:06):

50 times deeper,

(00:25:09):

because that doesn't make any sense to the listener's mind.

(00:25:14):

It's just like, what does that mean?

(00:25:15):

What does that feel like?

(00:25:17):

How do I do that?

(00:25:18):

And you start thinking like, isn't that a lot?

(00:25:21):

How is that even possible?

(00:25:23):

Most of us have a pretty analytical mind, and that's just not going to work for them.

(00:25:31):

Basically, don't put pressure on the subject.

(00:25:36):

Don't make them perform unless that's something that they want to do.

(00:25:41):

Don't make them try so hard.

(00:25:43):

Do as much as you can yourself to create that experience for them.

(00:25:50):

And then even when the subject is deep in a trance,

(00:25:56):

give them suggestions that would probably still work even out of trance.

(00:26:04):

Because then you're making them really comfortable.

(00:26:07):

You're making them feel like they don't need to be in this strange magical state of

(00:26:12):

mind to make this work.

(00:26:17):

Let's go back to the public speaking example.

(00:26:21):

Even when we think that the subject is in a deep trance right now,

(00:26:27):

we are not going to jump straight into the suggestion of,

(00:26:31):

you are a perfect public speaker.

(00:26:35):

It's not a bad suggestion.

(00:26:38):

I just like to think, what if they're not in the most deep receptive state right now?

(00:26:46):

But I still want it to work.

(00:26:49):

I'd like to say something that would work even without trance.

(00:26:56):

Imagine you are cool, calm, and prepared for your talk.

(00:27:02):

Imagine what you feel like when you know that your presentation does not need to be perfect.

(00:27:10):

Imagine the relief of knowing that the fact that you did it is fantastic in itself.

(00:27:18):

And when asked a question that you may not know the answer to,

(00:27:23):

you are cool and confident,

(00:27:26):

knowing that you don't know because you have not looked into that particular topic

(00:27:31):

or you have looked into it and could not find sufficient answers.

(00:27:36):

Isn't it nice to feel the relief of being human?

(00:27:42):

Now look at those string of suggestions that I just used.

(00:27:47):

Those would all work outside of trance.

(00:27:53):

And that's why we need to get ourselves out of the idea of induction and then

(00:28:00):

suggestions that work because the subject is in trance.

(00:28:04):

Yes,

(00:28:05):

this state of deeper brainwave activity,

(00:28:10):

this thing that we call a hypnotic trance,

(00:28:13):

yes,

(00:28:13):

it enhances the suggestions.

(00:28:17):

But it's best to make suggestions that work regardless of whether or not the subject is in trance.

(00:28:26):

This is what it means to make it natural, and this is when it works best.

(00:28:34):

Hypnosis is an enhancement.

(00:28:36):

It doesn't give you any ability to make magical commands.

(00:28:43):

Look at how we create things as humans.

(00:28:46):

We visualize it first.

(00:28:50):

We visualize the ingredients of our salad before we make it.

(00:28:56):

We visualize our body to create it.

(00:29:00):

We imagine it,

(00:29:01):

we feel it,

(00:29:02):

we hear it,

(00:29:03):

use the senses,

(00:29:05):

we line up the emotions with it,

(00:29:07):

and we think of it in as much precision as possible.

(00:29:12):

That's how all things are created, intentionally.

(00:29:18):

Your imagination is a preview of the future.

(00:29:23):

Just by thinking of something, you are drawn to it and it is actually drawn to you.

(00:29:32):

In ways that we understand and in some ways that we honestly don't.

(00:29:37):

Some odd,

(00:29:38):

unbelievable things happen when we combine our imagination with our emotions and

(00:29:46):

our intentions.

(00:29:48):

And sometimes the manifestation just seems to magically appear.

(00:29:54):

We don't know how.

(00:29:55):

Sometimes we try to explain it.

(00:29:58):

Sometimes we consciously make actions towards it, as we should.

(00:30:03):

And sometimes we're thinking about it, and it just sort of pops into your existence.

(00:30:09):

It just sort of happens.

(00:30:11):

And as humans, we don't really have the perception to understand 100% how.

(00:30:21):

All we know is that we get people to conceptualize things first and then they happen.

(00:30:29):

We don't just say it's going to happen.

(00:30:32):

We conceptualize what it's like.

(00:30:36):

We create it in some part of our imagination.

(00:30:39):

And we do some kind of action to move us into a physical space closer to it.

(00:30:46):

And that's what you're encouraging.

(00:30:48):

That's the next part.

(00:30:50):

That is an instruction of something physical.

(00:30:54):

We have mentally created what we want.

(00:30:58):

We have visualized it, heard it, felt it, seen it.

(00:31:04):

We have emotionalized it with as much precision as possible.

(00:31:09):

And now there's this drive and motivation and magnetism towards it.

(00:31:17):

And the best way to get the ball rolling towards that direction is to do something physical.

(00:31:24):

If you're looking to improve someone's physical fitness,

(00:31:28):

one of the instructions might be,

(00:31:30):

make sure that you walk every day.

(00:31:34):

Or,

(00:31:34):

the next time you take a drink of water,

(00:31:37):

stare into the water for a few moments,

(00:31:40):

imagining that that water contains exactly what you need to accomplish your goal.

(00:31:47):

And as you drink that water, you feel it become a part of you.

(00:31:52):

The physical instruction could be anything related to the topic you're talking about.

(00:32:01):

Overall, here's what makes the hypnosis usually work.

(00:32:05):

A calm state of focus.

(00:32:08):

An imagination scenario that makes you feel something as much as possible.

(00:32:16):

And then physically doing something.

(00:32:20):

This is the simple 1-2-3 combo.

(00:32:25):

You have combined three concepts that work excellently together, and you have done them in that order.

(00:32:35):

Because first you relax and focus, then you feel it, and then you begin doing something about it.

(00:32:46):

Then we finish it off by just saying, hey, you can do it.

(00:32:51):

You don't have to try to make it work.

(00:32:54):

You got what it takes.

(00:32:57):

Go ahead and do it.

(00:33:01):

Say it in your own words.

(00:33:03):

How would you tell a friend that they can do it?

(00:33:09):

Now, once you're done your recording, you can do noise reduction and editing.

(00:33:15):

You can put in some background audio.

(00:33:19):

Find whatever fits the vibe that you're going for.

(00:33:25):

You could use binaurals or brainwave entrainment.

(00:33:30):

You could use certain soft music.

(00:33:34):

You may have to search around for royalty-free stuff.

(00:33:38):

You may have to pay for the royalties to use it if you're going to publish it.

(00:33:46):

And it's not necessary to add a background track, but it can add so much depth to it.

(00:33:55):

So I hope that this has helped or at least entertained you.

(00:34:01):

And I'm sure you have learned plenty.

(00:34:03):

You don't have to implement all of these things.

(00:34:07):

And when you do, you can do it in your own way.

(00:34:11):

If you can just be all positive with what you create, you are going to change the world.

(00:34:19):

Honestly, that's all it takes.

(00:34:21):

That is the biggest thing.

(00:34:24):

Do your own thing.

(00:34:25):

Keep it positive.

(00:34:27):

Get out there and make some crazy stuff.

(00:34:31):

Transcript: 

(00:00:00):

Let's start off by saying hypnosis is kind of hard.

(00:00:06):

Well, at least it's hard to get right.

(00:00:09):

It's one of those things that's actually surprisingly easy to get into, but surprisingly hard to master.

(00:00:18):

So it's not always easy to create things that work for everyone and things that work every time.

(00:00:28):

There's so many people that will come to me and say, it's just impossible for me to be hypnotized.

(00:00:36):

They say it just doesn't work or that nothing really happens or maybe they feel a

(00:00:41):

little bit of sensation.

(00:00:44):

But it's nothing like the hypnotist ever says.

(00:00:48):

I mean, the hypnotist might say 100 times more powerful and it certainly doesn't feel like 100 times.

(00:00:58):

Perhaps you have been in that situation before.

(00:01:02):

I mean, you probably have been, because most subjects are this way.

(00:01:08):

It's only that small percentage of people,

(00:01:11):

I don't know what percentage it is,

(00:01:13):

but I do know it is a minority,

(00:01:16):

that experience every single suggestion at this level.

(00:01:22):

There are many that would love to get there.

(00:01:27):

But I must ask you, do you really want to be there?

(00:01:33):

Because that type of person is not just more easily hypnotizable.

(00:01:38):

They have certain characteristics about them, certain traits.

(00:01:46):

These people have a different purpose in life than you might.

(00:01:52):

I don't know about you, but I believe that all people have a certain purpose.

(00:01:59):

However, it is not always readily apparent.

(00:02:02):

In fact, none of us ever really understand our purpose.

(00:02:09):

So I would like to ask you,

(00:02:11):

the listener right now,

(00:02:13):

does being that hypnotically suggestible sound like it helps your purpose?

(00:02:22):

Of course, it's not some matter of other people being more brainwashed than others.

(00:02:29):

That's a totally separate discussion.

(00:02:33):

All people are on their own paths and are influenced in different ways.

(00:02:39):

They are reached in the way that they are reached.

(00:02:44):

But I think that you want to be really susceptible.

(00:02:49):

But you still want just enough control left to be able to cancel it out if things go a little too far.

(00:03:00):

I think that this is the main thing that is preventing people from going into a state of trance.

(00:03:08):

Of course, that doesn't mean everyone.

(00:03:11):

And of course, that may not mean you.

(00:03:14):

Because everyone is so particular, so different and unique

(00:03:20):

And that means different techniques will work on different people.

(00:03:25):

And for most people,

(00:03:26):

I think they need to be felt into and understood to really go into that state of

(00:03:34):

comfort of allowing your mind to let go.

(00:03:40):

There are so many reasons that we have our own hypnotic and non-hypnotic patternings.

(00:03:48):

But I hope that some of this explanation helps to clarify what's going on with you personally.

(00:03:57):

Though I must admit, I cannot solve whatever is going on with you.

(00:04:03):

I think it is solely up to you.

(00:04:07):

I mean, there's hypnotists out there that could figure out anyone.

(00:04:12):

They are absolute geniuses like that.

(00:04:17):

That's not where my particular genius lays.

(00:04:21):

These people are admittedly rare.

(00:04:24):

I don't think that you and I will bump into one of them.

(00:04:30):

All I'm saying is that if you want to know what's going on with you hypnotically

(00:04:36):

that's preventing your trance,

(00:04:39):

you gotta figure this out yourself.

(00:04:42):

Because no one is coming to save us.

(00:04:47):

The great thing,

(00:04:48):

though,

(00:04:48):

is that just you listening to this right now is training you to be more open-minded,

(00:04:56):

thoughtful,

(00:04:57):

and aware of what's going on with you.

(00:05:00):

But not just that.

(00:05:02):

You're probably quite used to hearing me do hypnosis on you.

(00:05:08):

And you'll find this quite hypnotic.

(00:05:12):

In fact, it's hard for me to talk about these things without speaking in that hypnotic tone that I have.

(00:05:24):

Which brings up another point.

(00:05:26):

Are you really aware of when you are going into trance?

(00:05:30):

I mean,

(00:05:30):

there's those points where you're driving down the highway and for a minute or so

(00:05:36):

you go into a trance.

(00:05:38):

Maybe for hours you go into a trance.

(00:05:41):

You're still aware.

(00:05:43):

You're not sleepy, hopefully.

(00:05:46):

but the time seems to slip away at least you can't really remember what happened at

(00:05:53):

those times there were cars that passed or you passed cars there was trees highways

(00:06:00):

signs roads and not much else

(00:06:04):

You don't think of it as trance.

(00:06:07):

And that's what I want your experience of trance to be,

(00:06:11):

so that you could be still walking around,

(00:06:14):

going about your day,

(00:06:16):

and still experiencing those lower depths of the mind.

(00:06:23):

And this is what a movie is intended to do for you.

(00:06:27):

Not only do you feel things,

(00:06:29):

you see,

(00:06:29):

you hear things,

(00:06:31):

you are entertained by the movie,

(00:06:34):

but it brings you into its world,

(00:06:37):

into a sort of trance.

(00:06:39):

But we wouldn't call it that.

(00:06:43):

And so, at its best, I think that trance could be natural like that.

(00:06:50):

And so it's important for you to identify what you really want.

(00:06:55):

Is it this traditional sort of hypnosis thing?

(00:07:00):

You know, a man dressed like a magician.

(00:07:03):

Maybe he's got a stopwatch.

(00:07:05):

Maybe you like it to happen like it does in the movies.

(00:07:10):

Because, of course, it's not always like the movies.

(00:07:16):

I truly want you to understand what's going on with you so that you can have your

(00:07:22):

discussions with hypnotists or discussions with subjects.

(00:07:31):

And once you figure it out, there is that wonderful aha moment.

(00:07:37):

It's that moment where the subject says, I thought I could never be hypnotized.

(00:07:43):

I tried so much until it finally worked.

(00:07:49):

And that experience is bliss.

(00:07:53):

When you go into that really deep hypnotic state, there's no way to really describe it.

(00:07:59):

The nerve system slows down.

(00:08:03):

You are on another frequency of existence.

(00:08:08):

Yes, your consciousness goes to a different place.

(00:08:13):

That means that it's aware of different things, and it's also doing different things to your body.

(00:08:23):

I don't think I could describe a better sensation than that.

(00:08:29):

If you've ever experienced it, you know that it is pure bliss.

(00:08:35):

And for me, it's about the creation that can come from that.

(00:08:39):

It's about the possibility to create whatever you want.

(00:08:47):

It's that experience of creating what you want through a state of bliss.

(00:08:55):

Who could blame you for going after something like this?

(00:08:59):

I think you should.

(00:09:01):

Let's see if we can figure that out so that you can experience anything you want,

(00:09:08):

get anything you want,

(00:09:10):

be anything you want,

(00:09:13):

and achieve it through bliss.

(00:09:19):

I'm going to speak mostly of content creation,

(00:09:23):

but this all applies to in-person sort of hypnosis as well.

(00:09:31):

Before you ask yourself, is there something wrong with me?

(00:09:36):

Ask yourself, is there something not right about the content that you're listening to?

(00:09:42):

Because most content will not work for most people.

(00:09:48):

Most hypnosis content only actually works on the most susceptible subjects, the really easy ones.

(00:09:59):

And I know they say anyone can do hypnosis,

(00:10:03):

but that really just means that anyone could learn a script and hypnotize easy subjects.

(00:10:12):

And in today's fast-paced world, I would say that people are less susceptible than ever to hypnosis.

(00:10:21):

I mean,

(00:10:21):

not only is our attention spans decreasing,

(00:10:25):

but we all put this wall up in front of our minds because we know how many

(00:10:31):

advertisers and scammers and manipulators are constantly trying to take hold of our minds.

(00:10:39):

That makes us defensive.

(00:10:42):

It's a whole other discussion of what makes a hypnosis file actually work and not work.

(00:10:51):

But you can just ask yourself if the content is simply not it for you.

(00:10:57):

Maybe there's another person or another file that will work better for you.

(00:11:04):

Sometimes you just don't like a certain technique or a certain suggestion doesn't

(00:11:10):

feel right to you,

(00:11:10):

doesn't make you feel comfortable.

(00:11:13):

And that's totally fine.

(00:11:14):

That is totally normal.

(00:11:17):

But real quick, there's a couple of things that will tell you if it's going to work right away.

(00:11:23):

First is whether they direct things in terms of the present moment or happening in the future.

(00:11:32):

Like,

(00:11:32):

if I was to give you the suggestion that you will become smarter,

(00:11:38):

at first that might seem like a good suggestion,

(00:11:41):

especially if you're in a hypnotic state.

(00:11:43):

I mean, simple as that, right?

(00:11:47):

Well, there's a number of very unoptimized things about that sentence.

(00:11:53):

That's putting it really lightly, because I don't think that that suggestion would work at all.

(00:12:00):

Except on subjects that are both easy and quite intelligent already.

(00:12:07):

there's that suggestion of you will and that is an implication that something's

(00:12:13):

going to happen in the future the problem with that is that when we are working

(00:12:18):

with hypnosis we're working with the present moment because that's the only thing

(00:12:24):

that exists it might blow your mind if you're not a meditator but the past does not

(00:12:31):

exist the future does not exist two nanoseconds ago does not exist

(00:12:37):

One nanosecond in the future does not exist.

(00:12:42):

You are a 3D human,

(00:12:44):

which means your consciousness exists in one single point of time,

(00:12:50):

and that is called now.

(00:12:55):

So if you want that suggestion to stick, you have to say, you are smart now.

(00:13:03):

I know it's as simple as that.

(00:13:05):

It may seem like something so small, but it is huge.

(00:13:11):

Because when we refer to things happening in the future, they stay in the future.

(00:13:18):

And when the future comes, it's not actually the future.

(00:13:21):

It's now.

(00:13:23):

And that thing that you said is in the future, it's still in the future.

(00:13:28):

And this will repeat over and over again, continually.

(00:13:33):

Do not underestimate this.

(00:13:35):

The present moment is everything.

(00:13:39):

Now it's not just about the language, but the context.

(00:13:44):

It would be great to say, you will become smarter when you do your test.

(00:13:49):

Think about your math test now and imagine calculating the numbers correctly,

(00:13:55):

understanding the concepts behind the formulas,

(00:13:59):

and comprehending what it all means.

(00:14:04):

That kind of suggestion has moved you into the present moment, imagining that the future is now.

(00:14:13):

After all, your imagination is a preview of the future.

(00:14:20):

Now it doesn't mean that the you will become smarter suggestion is a bad suggestion.

(00:14:27):

It just means that most subjects will need it a little bit more ideal to be at its

(00:14:33):

maximum effectiveness.

(00:14:37):

Then there's the subjective parts of the content like, do you like this person's style?

(00:14:44):

Do you like their attitude?

(00:14:47):

What are their intentions?

(00:14:50):

Are you trying to find a therapeutic thing or an erotic thing?

(00:14:57):

a self-improvement thing?

(00:14:59):

Is there a strong masculine or feminine aspect of this that you're really into?

(00:15:06):

There's so many things that will affect it for you.

(00:15:10):

Now,

(00:15:11):

some might say,

(00:15:11):

oh,

(00:15:12):

I'd like to listen to subliminals because then my conscious mind will not interrupt.

(00:15:19):

And that can work.

(00:15:21):

Except subliminals don't work.

(00:15:25):

Let me explain.

(00:15:26):

The effectiveness of subliminals is so much smaller than the effectiveness of a

(00:15:33):

regular dedicated hypnosis file that I don't consider it effective enough.

(00:15:40):

I mean, do you want something that works with 15% effectiveness or 100% effectiveness?

(00:15:49):

The great thing about subliminals is the placebo effect.

(00:15:55):

Don't be afraid of that word, placebo, because placebo is a good thing.

(00:16:02):

It is that one thing that all philosophies believe in, but we all call it something else.

(00:16:10):

We call it karma, law of attraction.

(00:16:14):

Resistance and persistence.

(00:16:17):

We call it magic.

(00:16:19):

A miracle.

(00:16:20):

Acts of God.

(00:16:23):

And for many of the scientific community, it's called the placebo effect.

(00:16:28):

Or the nocebo effect, if it causes something negative.

(00:16:34):

The great thing is that a placebo works even if you know it's a placebo effect.

(00:16:42):

Isn't that incredible?

(00:16:44):

I mean you can make pretty much anything happen using the placebo effect.

(00:16:51):

That's why the gold standard of scientific studies is the double-blind, placebo-controlled test.

(00:16:59):

The great thing about subliminals is that you can listen to it doing anything,

(00:17:06):

and no one would question it.

(00:17:08):

You can layer it over any of the nice sounds that you like.

(00:17:14):

And most importantly, you can dedicate it to a focus on something.

(00:17:21):

Let's say you wanted to grow your beard thicker,

(00:17:25):

so you were listening to a beard growth subliminal,

(00:17:30):

which will work,

(00:17:31):

by the way,

(00:17:32):

as shown by the placebo effect.

(00:17:36):

which is so powerful that we have to do controls to get it out of our experiments.

(00:17:43):

While listening to that subliminal,

(00:17:45):

you are consciously choosing to have thoughts,

(00:17:50):

feelings,

(00:17:51):

sensations that relate to your own personal feeling of having a big thick beard.

(00:18:01):

Maybe you associate it with masculinity, strength, fatherliness.

(00:18:09):

Maybe you associate it with that feeling of growth, vitality, or expansion.

(00:18:17):

Maybe you like to think of the new hairs sprouting thicker and thicker,

(00:18:22):

and that's just a good feeling for you.

(00:18:26):

And you can think about this throughout the entire subliminal,

(00:18:30):

and you can think about it in your own way.

(00:18:35):

And maybe there's parts in the background that relate to that,

(00:18:39):

but they don't get in the way of any of that.

(00:18:45):

Perhaps subliminals are perfect for people that like to do their own thing without

(00:18:51):

too much instruction impeding it.

(00:18:56):

I mean, we can't count on the instructions from the subliminals actually being any good.

(00:19:04):

Just like I explained earlier, the instructions are not always worded as they could be best worded.

(00:19:13):

Or worse, they could be using negatives.

(00:19:17):

Like if the hypnosis file says,

(00:19:20):

don't stress,

(00:19:22):

or don't fear,

(00:19:24):

or relax from all the difficulties and stresses of the day.

(00:19:30):

That might work for some people, but a lot of us are going to get triggered by that.

(00:19:36):

Because these are negative words.

(00:19:40):

So a subliminal might ensure that even if the hypnotic language is not perfect,

(00:19:47):

it's still going to work for you because you are consciously dedicating yourself to

(00:19:54):

that one particular thing and the energy flows where the attention goes.

(00:20:02):

Simple as that.

(00:20:03):

If you focus on something with intention, a little hint of positivity,

(00:20:09):

and a big force of precision, it must come to be.

(00:20:16):

There are also some experts who create things based on frequencies.

(00:20:23):

There are audio files, you find them all over the internet, of a certain hertz, Hz, or frequency.

(00:20:33):

and they combine them with nice musical tracks and sometimes affirmations but not

(00:20:39):

always these are these healing vibrational sounds and each frequency has a bit of a

(00:20:49):

different tone of course a different flavor that does something different to the

(00:20:55):

body lots of them very similar of course

(00:21:01):

And overall, the frequencies go from relaxed focus.

(00:21:06):

Maybe if you go higher than that, it's like intense focus.

(00:21:10):

And if you go a little lower, it starts to become dreamy.

(00:21:15):

And when you hit the lowest, it's like pure emptiness, nothingness, like completely unconscious.

(00:21:25):

And there is some debate on the exact usage for the different frequencies,

(00:21:29):

but getting your brain into them and aligning with them is a fantastic thing.

(00:21:37):

And if a subliminal is combined with this,

(00:21:41):

you can consciously direct that as the file that gets you the effects you want,

(00:21:48):

even if there's no suggestions in it for that.

(00:21:54):

Your intention matters,

(00:21:57):

and when you intend something,

(00:22:00):

the creation that comes from it can look a lot like what you intended.

(00:22:09):

Now let's talk about allowing someone else into your mind.

(00:22:16):

It's understandable that such a thing could make one apprehensive,

(00:22:22):

because at our core,

(00:22:24):

we need to be self-regulating to some level.

(00:22:30):

And for many of us,

(00:22:32):

we had a childhood where we had to self-regulate a lot more than a child should

(00:22:39):

need to.

(00:22:41):

After all, how do we adapt to situations that are not in our favor?

(00:22:47):

We have to self-adapt to that.

(00:22:51):

And perhaps you ran into situations where adapting to someone else did not turn out well.

(00:23:00):

This is normal and natural.

(00:23:02):

I expect all people have had this experience.

(00:23:07):

You can't just trust everyone 100%.

(00:23:10):

You would run into trouble very quickly, of course.

(00:23:15):

So there is that part of your brain now programmed in to protect you from

(00:23:21):

automatically following every suggestion of others.

(00:23:26):

And that is a good thing.

(00:23:27):

That is a fantastic thing.

(00:23:30):

We need to give thanks and appreciation to this part of us that protects us.

(00:23:37):

And to do that, we simply give awareness to that part of us.

(00:23:43):

So that when it comes up and it stops a hypnotic suggestion from working, you say, hey, I recognize you.

(00:23:52):

I see what you're doing.

(00:23:55):

I know that you're protecting me.

(00:23:59):

And in doing so, this part of you can finally let off.

(00:24:03):

It's saying, oh, I'm recognized.

(00:24:06):

Yes, you have to show this part of you that it has control.

(00:24:11):

That it can step in any time that it feels uncomfortable.

(00:24:19):

If it feels uneasy about it, it can step in.

(00:24:24):

Yes, just the recognition of that.

(00:24:28):

will kind of ironically make it go away.

(00:24:33):

Because you are trusting first in yourself.

(00:24:38):

And then don't force it.

(00:24:41):

Allow suggestions to work as they work.

(00:24:46):

And I know you really want to make the hypnosis work, but there's a reason that it doesn't.

(00:24:54):

You are being protected by a part of you, so let it protect you.

(00:25:01):

Whatever in particular the hypnotist said to you, it may not be really meant to work on you.

(00:25:11):

Maybe there's something about this that isn't for you.

(00:25:15):

Maybe it's just not your thing,

(00:25:17):

or it's not in the exact way that it needs to be for you,

(00:25:21):

and that's fine.

(00:25:24):

Of course, you may or may not have these psychological things going on.

(00:25:31):

It could be something else in particular for you,

(00:25:35):

and it likely is because we are all so individual and unique.

(00:25:42):

Now,

(00:25:42):

many of us think of the psychological parts of why you might not be going into

(00:25:48):

hypnosis easily,

(00:25:49):

but I think one of the most important parts is the physiological parts,

(00:25:55):

the body.

(00:25:57):

After all, your emotions and thoughts, most of it actually stored in the body.

(00:26:05):

Yes, I know your brain organizes it, but it does so by connecting it through the entire nerve system.

(00:26:15):

A nerve system that is constantly reading what's going on within each part of the body, each organ.

(00:26:24):

Every single millimeter of every finger, every muscle fiber.

(00:26:30):

And then the way that the nervous system interacts with all of the bacteria natural of the body.

(00:26:39):

It's complex, but it is in the body.

(00:26:44):

So there's a few basics to check off to make sure that you are physically able to

(00:26:51):

be hypnotized,

(00:26:53):

able to focus in an optimum way.

(00:26:58):

And perhaps this type of hypnosis you want involves relaxing and letting go.

(00:27:03):

It doesn't have to, but it's usually so much nicer when it does involve those things.

(00:27:12):

And you need your body in its optimum order in order to do that properly.

(00:27:19):

And that means achieving the basics.

(00:27:22):

Staying hydrated, eating good food, getting good sleep.

(00:27:28):

I know, it's not exciting, but we all know it works.

(00:27:35):

People that are doing more optimum things with their body are easier to hypnotize.

(00:27:41):

They are functioning properly, tuned in, hydrated, well slept.

(00:27:48):

They are feeling well.

(00:27:51):

Simple as this.

(00:27:52):

Drink some fresh juice.

(00:27:55):

Go for a walk.

(00:27:57):

Stretch.

(00:27:58):

And then listen to some hypnosis.

(00:28:01):

And watch how incredibly effective it becomes.

(00:28:06):

And that's only the effect of half an hour.

(00:28:10):

literally just 2% of the day.

(00:28:15):

Imagine the compound effect of doing that every day, once a day, because it all adds together.

(00:28:27):

Maybe you throw in some hard exercise every second day or even third day.

(00:28:33):

You end up with not just a more easily hypnotizable mind, but a lot of fantastic knock-on effects.

(00:28:43):

You live in better health and happiness and all of your goals become more achievable.

(00:28:49):

It's all a big formula and everything that you do adds to the experience or takes away from it.

(00:29:00):

Now what is the best format for you?

(00:29:02):

Is it audio or is it reading?

(00:29:06):

Or is it even video?

(00:29:08):

Because for me, text hypnosis works quite well.

(00:29:14):

I think for most, audio seems to work best.

(00:29:19):

Maybe I'm just visual,

(00:29:21):

or I find that the audio might interrupt with my mind,

(00:29:27):

or perhaps it's because I can go at the exact pace that I need to go.

(00:29:34):

All I know is that it works best for me, so what works best for you?

(00:29:41):

I think reading books is a fantastic way to enhance your experience of hypnosis,

(00:29:49):

no matter if you experience it by audio or by reading.

(00:29:56):

Because reading can train your brain to go into that brainwave level that is a bit lower.

(00:30:05):

And we want that lower brainwave level because it is closer to hypnosis.

(00:30:11):

it moves your natural state a little bit lower.

(00:30:16):

It gets you used to it, and then your brain wants to go down a bit all the time.

(00:30:24):

There's also that effect of the left-to-right motion of reading.

(00:30:30):

And not many people talk about this.

(00:30:32):

I find that fascinating.

(00:30:35):

But during REM, rapid eye movement sleep, that's when you dream.

(00:30:41):

Your eyes are going left to right, back and forth, back and forth.

(00:30:47):

and this is what you're doing when you're reading you read from one side to the

(00:30:52):

other and you switch back and you do it again you do this continuously over and

(00:30:58):

over again and because you are looking in both directions it signals to both sides

(00:31:07):

of the brain it wakes up both sides it encourages the brain to begin processing

(00:31:14):

things

(00:31:16):

using all of the brain power that it has.

(00:31:20):

This encourages you to do the same thing under hypnosis.

(00:31:25):

You are learning to learn when you read.

(00:31:29):

And hypnosis is learning.

(00:31:36):

Let's finish off by talking about your expectations.

(00:31:41):

Because I think a lot of hypnotists and maybe even subjects set this strangely high

(00:31:49):

bar for what should happen under hypnosis.

(00:31:53):

They say that they should be in control of your body,

(00:31:57):

or they say that you should experience something at 1,000 times level,

(00:32:04):

when it just doesn't make any sense.

(00:32:09):

You might be trying to get outlandish things to work on you immediately,

(00:32:14):

and then you might feel like,

(00:32:16):

oh,

(00:32:17):

I'm not such a good subject.

(00:32:19):

I think that's preposterous.

(00:32:23):

Remember that anything is possible, truly, but be reasonable with your expectations.

(00:32:32):

You may have some inner or outer work to do.

(00:32:36):

You may need to find different content or a different creator.

(00:32:43):

You may need to experience it in person or at least live with somebody.

(00:32:50):

You may need text or audio.

(00:32:54):

You might need someone to touch you physically and most likely it could be your own

(00:33:02):

unique thing and maybe a combination of the things that I've discussed here today.

(00:33:11):

I want you to figure out what's going on with you because knowing what's going on
