Very doable . . . both negative (not seeing something that is really there) and positive (seeing something that insn't really there) are well documented in academic research as being creatable with hypnosis. However, keep in mind that hallucinations are among the most difficult effects to accomplish...

*sigh* Have you ever been to Disneyworld? You wait in line for a ride, and it slowly snakes back and forth. Finally, you get to the door. You go inside . . . just to see that there's another line. I'm having some bad Disneyworld flashbacks. Every time I feel like I'm getting a handle on this stuff ....

I had been concerned that if the pitches were harminically compatable that there might be some form of "blending", so I had for the first experiment seperated the pitches by quite a bit . . . the Delta I ran at just under 400 and the Theta I believe was set at around 100. Since the Delta is running ...

"The brain can use multiple types of brainwaves simultaneously. Too many binaurals at once might cause confusion, but around 4-5 at a time should be OK" I would not have thought that this was possible -- thank you for providing some extremely useful knowledge. Hell with 4-5 beats. I'll be happy runn...

This comes out of comments MrNiceGuy left in my "Theta or Delta" thread . . . Niceguy had mentioned running two binaural beats simultaneously . . . a soft Theta and a louder Delta. I've never used more than one beat perfile, so I was excited at the possibilities, but before I start mucking about I w...

@Arial: Not familiar with centerpointe meditation program -- is it a computer program, or a system for meditation? In my case, I initially credited the issues with being analytical, but have recently come to put the "blame" on what I can only describe as paranoia. The block seems to be primal as opp...

In doing a little digging and begging for information in regards to my upcoming experiment with No2, I've gotten the impression that the short-to-moderatate lasting barbituates (Seconal, Amobarbital, etc.) are extremely effective, but obviously they're not OTC. btw -- the above info comes via Helium...

@FriendlyGuy; you may like the questions, but I love your answers!!! Thanks for the opinion. When dealing with binaurals, I personally don't think there's such a thing as an opinion "against the grain", as there seems to be so little definitive material on the binaural beats. Heck, I can't even find...

I've been working with binaural beats recently, and as I know others here use them I wanted to see about which wave pattern was considered more effective for triggers. Almost all of the literature I've discovered focuses on the effects of theta brainwave pattern, which makes sense given the increase...

Curious to see if anybody has any suggestions, opinions or experience with this. I've got a date in 2 weeks with an escaped Nazi interrogator, also known as a dentist. I'll be enjoying their kind ministrations for a few hours as they do some work, and I'm expecting to be under the influence of No2 a...

while files you make yourself have the benefit of being more "trustworthy" in terms of feeling comfortable and accepting toward the speaker, your mind may distrust the loss of control that comes with trancing itself, regardless of the speaker. I've had a devil of a time going from light trance to de...

well what do you know . . . first try with the BW effects set properly, kept slipping toward deep trance over and over once the cycle entered theta levels. My conciousness "caught" itself and stopped the full decent, but it was far more successful than any other attempt, and I have no doubt it's jus...

To friendlyguy, and everybody that has tried to help me these past few weeks . . . Your kind words and positive energy and encouragement have kept me going with my little experiment, and I can't thank you all enough. Unfortunately, I have some bad news . . . . I'm a fucking idiot. In my haste to lea...

Thanks cat and bdbu . . .and as usual the advice I get here is (feels) right. At this point, I'm scrapping all Triggers and PHS files . . . going to just work on Induction and deepening. I thought I was hitting a deep state with my trances, basing that on the physical sensation of being almost numb....

If you friends are going to be there (mabye the subject feels more comfortable with "witnesses"), try giving them an example of why they should shut the heck up. I had a far less serious similar example (buddy mucking up a suggestibility test as opposed to a full-on trance), and I explained to them ...

I hate to say it, but the easiest thing would be to try again without your nimrod buddies there trying to muck it up.

It's been almost a week and I haven't posted anything naive, so here goes. I've got my my mix of files finally down (I think), but now I've encountered a new problem. I'm using a long induction, 2 depeners (different styles), a PHS reinforcer, Suggestible, Accelerator, TrigArousal, and TrigRobot (cu...

I can say from my own experience as a skeptic that the files can work. I first achieved trance with EMGs induction file. They certainly aren't automatically perfect for everybody, but the work underlying them (well, many of them t least) is sound. Whether the voice guiding you through the trance is ...

@baby_J and Cardigan: No doubt you are both right. The only time I can stop thinking about things is when I'm unconcious (I gots the ADD bad) . . . one of the eventual planned payoffs to all this study was hopefully being able to kick the cranium down a few gears. In my homemade files, I've been put...

Much thanks for the information, Cardigan I had presumed the subconcious could follow the instructions without actual stimulus because of scenarios like the one you described. My concern was growing because during the file while the speaking never quite comes out and gives a direct instruction for a...

Thanks to your message, I've uploaded a 1-second soundclip here on WMM... the sound of a fingersnap. Now all you need to do is mix it into your favorite mp3s. The 1-second soundclip of fingers being snapped has been deleted. Thanks for the heads up. I've got a few snap sound files, so the deletion ...

Again, a tip-of-the-hat for the information. I'm wading through a pile of books trying to get information, but finding useful application data amongst the reams of academic statistics is mind-numbingly slow and frustrating. So if I understand your explanation of the two types of information acquisit...

A new question for the knowledgeable people: Many of the files contain commands to both focus on the speaker and to let the subject's thoughts "drift". Perhaps I'm mis-understanding the meaning of the the idea of letting my thoughts "drift away", but to me that suggests something similar to daydream...

I thought this thread was about the Rush song. And you had to go and disappoint me =(. Well I've never heard the song before, tell me about it. :) http://www.lyricsfreak.com/r/rush/freewill_20119963.html "You can choose a ready guide In some celestial voice If you choose not to decide You still hav...

@Friendly Guy: Hmmmmm . . . good advice. Thank you. I've been going with the combined files because I made my frist "breakthrough" --successful trance and semi-succesful "sleep" trigger -- imediately after I tried using stiched together files. I had proceeded on the assumption that the combined file...

@baby_jessica: I had toyed with that idea (using trigger during consious arousal for association), but ended up shying away from it. This whole bizzare little experiment came about from a conversation on the chat channel with Rogue and Wildsprite. As a total rookie to hypno, I was expressing frustra...

@babyjessica:
nice finds, and good reads.

looney, I think the "learn 2 read cuz UR stoopid-head" snotty attitude was a weak shot at me, not you. @bdbu: lessee . . . you claim binaurals are all placebo because of your prsonal experience and the comments of people you know (post 2/3/08@6:29am). Demonstrating a complete lack of logic, you impl...

So you're saying that binaurals don't work. I've heard of research on this where they hooked up volunteers to an EEG and used binaurals on them. You know what the EEG showed? It showed that the subjects brainwaves did change to match the binaural. Now whether this is a placebo effect or will could ...

thanks for the kind words (unless it was some voodoo text-induction)!! I hadn't thought about there being no snapping sound files here. I dug up a few clear ones from some sound effects sites that I'm happy to pass on if you/members/WMM would like them (three sound files uploaded, 100 files download...

Amen. If there's a possibility of an audience, there will be trolls.

1) I'm running a month long repetition of TrigArousal (*pause* EMG Rocks! *unpause*) without triggering it until the end. My slowly growing concern is that, during the file playing, I am absolutely unaroused (sorry EMG -- I'm sure you're sexy and all but you're a little too, well, male for my tastes...

@BobbyS:
re: "freeze" trigger

Do you recomend any particular "freeze" file as effective?

Gotta agree with Cardigan . . . Can hypnosis help me practice playing the guitar? Yes. Can it make me a guitar player without practicing? No. I could see a file helping you gain confidence in your skills, or allowing you to focus, or things such as that. But hypnosis giving you "talent"? That implie...

None whatsoever - why would your subconscious brain reverse everything it hears to check for hidden instructions? i would honestly doubt that it has no effect. there are plenty of things in the subconscious mind that are out of order or misinterpreted from conscious thinking. dreams are just one ex...

For what it's worth, you're not the only one in this boat . . . you just may be the only one with the cajones to come out of the anonymous fog of the Interwebs and post about it. I can go into trance fine, but that's it, and can't PHS no matter how many repetitions I go through. The closest I can ge...
