You have access to an MP3 download.
Check your email inbox (including spam) to find out how to access yours.
You should listen to your download every night before bed for at least two weeks.
Your download will be sent to you as a standard MP3 file which can be played on any computer, tablet or phone. It is advisable to download the MP3 file before listening to avoid a poor internet connection causing the recording to jump.
A Mind Movie is a visualisation in the form of imagined moving images – like a movie – which you create to watch inside your mind when you listen to your download. You will have been sent a guide on how to create your personalised Mind Movie visualisations. Your mental Mind Movie will power up your listening experience because you will be using imagery which specifically motivates you.
The more vivid and engaging you make your Mind Movie, the more powerful the results. It’s essential that your Mind Movie includes the emotions which accompany the moving images.
Your download will prompt you to “Play” your Mind Movie visualisation in your mind’s eye and leave a short interval within the download for you to do so.
By saying to yourself “relax” on your exhale when you play your Mind Movie showing you enjoying resting in bed, you will condition your brain to link together those relaxed restful feelings and the trigger of exhaling and saying to yourself “relax”. It means that during the night, if you breathe out and say to yourself “relax”, your brain will release those same restful feelings.
Our lives contain experiences which, if repeated, trigger an automatic response in our behaviour. In the most famous example, Pavlov, the Russian scientist, rang a bell every time he fed his dogs. After a while, just hearing the bell would trigger his dogs to salivate. An otherwise neutral stimulus like a bell ringing took on a positive meaning for the dogs.
Other examples of classic conditioning might be: standing up when the school bell is rung; or feeling tearful at the sight of a needle because of past painful injections; or a song from the happy moments in the past putting you in a good mood. Put simply, two stimuli are linked together to produce a learned response.
You should listen to your download lying down in your comfortable bed.
You should listen to your download last thing at night, having completed all the preparations for the evening. You should not listen to your download while operating machinery, driving, under the influence of drugs or alcohol or when something else requires your full attention.
Listening to your download will be a pleasant and comfortable experience. You will enter a relaxed state of mind in which your brain opens up to new ways of thinking, feeling and behaving.
