The new MindWaves series of 'Core Change' programs have been carefully developed and tested over a period of several years to overcome the problems with conventional subliminal recordings. Each MindWaves program consists of two half-hour recordings, 'Preparation' and 'Activation' which are designed to work together synergistically - that is, to produce stronger effects far more rapidly than either part could bring about on its own.

How They Work

Part 1 'Preparation' recordings'

The first recording in each program set is designed to be listened to in the background as often as possible, preferably five or more times a week. You can listen while working on your computer or transfer the recordings to CD so you can listen while driving. The more you listen, the greater the effect will be.

Each Preparation  recording includes sound tracks that follow best practice in the formulation of beneficial, targeted suggestions that will be accepted by the subconscious mind. These suggestions are continuously repeated over 5-8 minute cycles and are  embedded  in soothing full stereo 'nature sound' recordings such as woodland streams, ocean surf or heavy rain.

But this where the similarity with most other 'subliminal' recordings ends.  The recorded suggestions are NOT hidden behind the sound track that you consciously hear, but are actually a part of it!  This is achieved by means of a digital system which allows each  original spoken track to be 'imprinted' on a narrow frequency band within the 'nature' track that you hear, a technique sometimes referred to as 'vocoding'. Not only that, but using our unique technology, the suggestions are recorded at a sound level which would normally be clearly audible, but  you will be only marginally aware of the additional material in the recording, while your subconscious mind will clearly understand every word,.

There are no less than three separate and different streams of suggestions running continuously in left, right and centre channels. The left and right channels carry separate suggestion streams phrased in different ways. Individually these might just be understandable at a conscious level, but mixing the two streams acts to generate 'stereo confusion' that completely prevents conscious understanding, while at the same time conveying information directly to the subconscious mind. The centre channel contains suggestions relating to acceptance of change, the need for persistance, and others designed to increase the acceptability of the suggestions in the L/R channels. This track  is processed differently, using a special frequency-shifting and modulating technique (still well within the normal hearing range) to blend it into the upper frequencies of the 'nature' background. We recommend the use of stereo headphones or closely-spaced stereo speakers for maximum effect when listening to our Preparation  recordings.

Part 2 'Activation' recordings'

The second recording in each program is designed to be listened to through good quality stereo headphones while not doing anything else, preferably at least three times a week. In fact, because of the intended effects of these recordings, they should NEVER be listened to while engaged in any activity that requires full conscious awareness.

Each Activation  recording contains the same three 'streams' of partially masked suggestions as the corresponding Preparation recordings but in addition, the 'nature' sounds used in  the foreground (streams, rain, surf, and similar) have been layered and reprocessed to embed a number of powerful audio techniques.

These 'neuro-acoustic' sound technologies are partly  embedded in the stereo masking soundtracks and partly overlayed on them, in a complex process that makes use of up-to-the-minute brain research, together with state of the art  digital audio editing techniques. The result is a powerful, pleasant  and sometimes slightly unsettling 'mind trip' during which your conscious mind  quickly drifts into  an 'altered state' which is not hypnosis, but more closely resembles a deep state of meditation. In this state, the barriers to direct communication with the subconscious are temporarily lowered, and the suggestions that are subsequently presented at the edge of perception are allowed to enter your subconscious mind without resistance.

Although your brain is gently guided toward receptive alpha or high theta states, this is emphatically NOT any kind of 'mind control' technique. Your response is always under your own control, and you can return to the normal waking state at any time you wish. What the techniques we employ offer is simply a short cut to a highly desirable mental state that would normally take years of meditation to achieve. Neuro-acoustic recordings are a wonderful new tool that you can build into your daily life with complete safety - the meditative state of mind induced by MindWaves recordings is extremely beneficial in many ways.

While the brain  is in the meditative state  it naturally releases a whole range of beneficial substances including encephalins, which give rise to feelings of detachment and pleasure, and production of certain neurochemicals, including DHEA and HGH, both associated with tissue renewal and even with a reduction in  physiological age markers.

But that is not the end of the story. Mixed with the audio patterns that induce the receptive mind  state are further layers that act  to synchronise the brainwaves in the two hemispheres of the brain to encourage  a state called 'coherence'.   Hemispheric coherence is a brain state where the wave patterns in both halves of the brain are roughly equal in frequency distribution and amplitude, and in which the two hemispheres can communicate with each other most efficiently.

This 'coherent' state sometimes occurs naturally, although it tends to be both rare and brief. When it does occur it can lead to sudden insights and 'flashes of inspiration', and generally leads to a higher level of mental functioning. The two halves ('hemispheres')  of the brain are structurally similar, but research has shown that they actually process information in different ways. The left side of the brain, which controls speech and the right side of the body, tends to process information by breaking it down and looking at the 'bits'. It is often said to be predominantly logical and reductive in its methods. By contrast, the right side of the brain appears to be more holistic and tends to search for patterns and rhythms. It is often characterised as spatial, artistic and intuitive in the way it handles information.

By artificially inducing a degree of coherence on a regular basis, with the two parts of the brain working together in harmony, the brain 'learns' how to do this for itself. After repeated exposure it becomes more able to work in this 'whole brained' way, which leads to improved problem solving, better emotional control, a reduction in stress levels and a whole host of other benefits. This effect is designed to become stronger towards the end of each recording, so that it does not interfere with the 'alpha inducing' acoustic embeds in the earlier part of each recording. In this way each 35 minute Activation session becomes a full 'brain workout' with lasting beneficial effects.


How the two recordings work together

The Preparation and Activation recordings comprising each Core Change title have been designed using the latest information from researchers in the field and from our own trials and testing of the cutting-edge digital audio processing technologies that we use. Putting aside false modesty, we believe them to be among the best products of their kind that are currently available.

The Preparation subliminal recordings should be listened to every day for a minimum of one playing (30 minutes), while getting on with some other task, preferably through stereo headphones that are able to reproduce a frequency range from at least 50Hz to 5kHz. Good quality 'hi-fi' headphones will provide the best effect. You can burn your MP3 files to CD or copy them to tape if you have the facilities  to do so, or for a small extra amount you can purchase pre-recorded CDs from us (UK, Europe, US and Canada only).

When you have listened to a  recording  a number of  times, the subliminal suggestions will begin to become familiar to the subconscious, and the resistance to them will gradually diminish. The process is called 'pre-conditioning', and on its own would eventually implant most of the desired suggestions in the subconscious to one degree or another. However, this process can be rather slow, and some people will need to hear a recording twenty or more times before the effects even begin to become noticeable.

We realise that this may seem like slow progress for some, and that is why we include the Activation recordings. We recommend that you do not listen to these at all until you have listened to the corresponding Preparation recording at least ten times. You should find a place where you will be undisturbed for about 45 minutes, so that you can relax and make yourself comfortable before listening to the whole of the Activation recording. As mentioned earlier, you should never listen to an Activation recording while you are driving, or doing anything else that requires concentration for safety.

Each Activation recording contains complex embedded audio patterns which are designed to lead your mind gently down into a meditative mind state, making use of a phenomenon called 'brainwave entrainment'.

What does it feel like?

As you drift into the relaxed state you will begin to feel drowsy and comfortable, with  the amount of 'mind chatter' falling away until you feel peaceful and possibly rather detached from your surroundings. When you first begin using neuro-acoustic recordings you may find yourself apparently falling completely asleep, but this is almost always not actually the case. The proof of this is the way in which you will 'wake up' when you reach the spoken instruction to do this at the end of each recording. This shows that you have been paying attention at a deep level  throughout the experience, and also demonstrates the heightened suggestibility the session is designed to induce. 

The 'brainwave entrainment' process is gentle and respectful, and because of this you may need to listen several times to experience the full effect. There are also certain other things you can do to make  the recordings as effective as possible, and these are explained in a short report  that accompanies each program. After several listening sessions, the brain actually learns how to function more easily in the 'altered state' and it becomes progressively easier to produce this state at will, without falling asleep! If you also actively participate by doing the simple exercises described in the accompanying report, your progress will be even faster, and the effects more permanent.

Once you enter this peaceful, relaxed state, with your conscious mind disengaged and just enjoying the sensations of comfortable detachment and drowsiness, then the way becomes  clear for communication with your subconscious mind. The subliminal suggestions on the recording then begin to filter through to the levels which have already been prepared to receive them by the 'Part 1' Preparation recording. And all the time, a pair of barely perceptible offset-frequency tones drifting into each ear will produce a 'binaural beat frequency' that quietly works to bring both parts of your brain into a harmony you can only rarely experience in your normal waking life. In this 'whole brained' mode, communication levels between the brain hemispheres will increase, and the whole of your brain will become involved in this rejuvenative and life-enhancing experience.

The results can be dramatic. With resistance to the content of the embedded suggestions already considerably reduced  by the pre-programming effects of the Preparation recording, the power of the suggestions becomes highly magnified. Instead of having to overcome the twin hurdles of first bypassing the conscious mind, and then of overcoming subconscious resistance to new and unfamiliar ideas, once 'through the door' these suggestions now move  effortlessly into the subconscious 'belief system' to become a part of the controlling directives.

Far more rapidly than with older and more 'conventional'  systems, these new directives will quickly displace old limiting or damaging 'beliefs' and immediately begin to make subtle changes in the way you think, behave and perform. You will not transform into Superman (or Superwoman) overnight, but you WILL find that little by little, step by step, changes begin to take place that edge you in the direction of success in whatever area you have selected.

Some of these changes will be subtle - little differences in the way you react to situations and circumstances, or small 'coincidences' that help you on your way. But as you move further along the path to 'being in the flow' the changes become more and more rapid or profound, and you may even find that beneficial events you might normally put down to synchronicity and coincidence begin happening with amazing frequency.
