About the Quiet Earth Subliminal CDs
Subliminal programs can be used with remarkable
effectiveness to alter a specific behaviour or pattern of your choice.
With our CDs we offer a variety of programs. The subliminal messages
are recorded ‘behind’ the music, bypassing the conscious mind entering
directly into the subconscious – your motivating force. Here they
affect the changes you desire by reprogramming this part of your mind.
Note: you don’t consciously hear the messages; you only hear the music
or beach waves.
All messages (affirmations) are listed on the products along with instructions on use.
We believe Quiet Earth subliminals to be the most powerful available….why? – check out these points.
The best and most powerful messages
- Because the subconscious understands information exactly as presented
it is important to have simple, direct messages. For example, the
message “Everyday in every way I am getting better and better” may be
ineffective because it has a future reference. It is better to simply
say, “I am experiencing greatness”. The words must be expressed in the
moment for them to really effect change.
No distracting introduction -
there is no verbal introduction so when you play the CD all you hear is
the beautiful music or ocean waves giving you your program immediately.
Excellent music - People love the music on our subliminal recordings. The original
music for track 1 and ocean waves for track 2 are specifically designed
for relaxation enabling you to receive the full benefits. Music by James Wild and Chris Cullen.
Effectiveness - We have been
selling subliminals for over 13 years and have heard hundreds of
testimonials as to their remarkable effectiveness.
The CDs - Each subliminal CD has
two tracks using the same messages/affiirmations. The first is 30 mins
of music: the second 30 mins of beach waves.
How to use the Subliminal Recording for maximum effect
The affirmations (messages) become most effective when you are relaxed; so for most people the best time to listen to to the recording is in the evening or first thing in the morning. However, they work in any situation so you can play them at any time (even as background music). Some people use the recording as a soft backdrop for meditation. Note that the music is relaxing so it is not recommended that you play it while driving.
Dedication: If you want to use the subliminal specifically to affect change in a certain area of your life, then it would be optimal to play the CD for at least 30 minutes every day for 30 days as a dedication. You may also play the recording continuously through the night while sleeping if you feel it is appropriate (the volume can be kept at an absolute minimum and the messages will still take effect).
Why Use Subliminal Programs
The programs are designed to effect change in an area of
your life that you have a strong desire to put in place. To understand
behavioral changes we can look at how we learn a new skill like driving a car.
In the beginning you are very conscious of how to turn, when to brake
etc. After practice, driving becomes second nature, i.e. you don’t have to
think about each specific event – the coordination of hands and feet becomes a
more or less subconscious exercise. Much of the minds fundamental power
for change is locked in the subconscious our motivating force – hard wired
years of experiences.
Most of us have had the experience where we consciously
create a change for the better, only to find that we gradually or suddenly slip
back into our old patterns. This could be anything from a boost in
self-confidence or more physical things such as weight loss or giving up
smoking. Why does this happen? It does because the conscious mind can only
overrule the subconscious for short periods. For example if you have low
self-esteem around your financial position you can consciously do seminars,
recite affirmations, hang around wealthy people which may put you on the road
to wealth. But often what happens is under pressure and stress the subconscious
surfaces and ultimately prevails giving us our old “programming” back. Physical
addictions such as smoking and eating disorders carry a strong emotional
component that must be addressed for change to occur.
The patterns of the subconscious are what we need to unravel
or reprogram if we want to re-create certain habits or behaviours: especially
ones that have a strong emotional connection. Subliminal messages can aid in
the process for change and here’s why.
How the Subliminal Program Works
Many scientific studies have shown that the brain responds
to external stimuli that for one reason or another are not consciously
perceived. The subconscious acts like a mop - absorbing activity occurring
around us. I believe that we pick up and take on an immeasurable amount of
subliminal information from our environment, from subtle advertising messages
to other people’s feelings.
It has been shown that you become more receptive to the
messages when your desire for change is strong and when you are more relaxed.
In our normal conscious waking state the brain produces a collective activity
of electrical frequency of 7 to 14 cycles per second or beta state. In a
relaxed state the activity will slow down to 4 to 7 cps (alpha) or even 2 to 4
cps (theta). It is during these states that we become more open to suggestion
and is why the best time to play the subliminals (for maximum effect) is when
you are most relaxed - say in the morning or the evening. You can play them
anytime however and the messages will still take effect. If you feel it
appropriate you can play them at night while you sleep, keeping the volume at
an absolute minimal level.
Music
This music on our subliminal CDs is specifically designed
for relaxation giving you maximum receptivity to the messages. The near absence
of melody and the ethereal nature of the sound is a real strength of the Quiet
Earth subliminals. This helps to shut off the left-brain our analytical and
judgmental side and let the intuitive and emotional right-brain come forth – a
key to changing the subconscious. Another strength of the CDs are the choice of
two tracks with 30 mins of music on the first and 30 mins of beach waves on the
second. The messages are masked by the music/beach waves and are recorded just
below audibility of the human ear. The messages or affirmations are like a
flood of positive energy building the necessary energy for change.
The Research
There is a large volume of evidence showing that subliminal
perception and messages affect responses and changes in people’s lives.
Examples have been documented by hundreds of studies reviewed in the
authoritative work Preconscious Processing by University College of
London psychologist Norman Dixon.
Subliminal messages, words and images – both in sound and pictures –
have been shown to affect such physiological makers as sweat response or brain
waves. Subliminal messages have also been recalled in accounts of dreams, in
before-and-after psychological tests and have been shown to help people lose
weight and stop smoking.
Hal Becker, a behavioral scientist and former professor of
biomedical engineering at Tulane University developed a special subliminal
black box machine. His claims of success with subliminal messages are famous.
Among these is the McDonagh Medical Center in Kansas City, Missouri, where
subliminal healing messages piped through the sound system in a seven-month
trial produced dramatic results. Fainting in the chelation-therapy clinic,
caused by needle pain, dropped to practically zero; smoking in the staff lounge
was cut by 50-70%; and flare-ups in the crowded patient waiting room were
reduced by around 60%. In Beckers weight loss clinic dramatic results were
obtained with 50% of patients maintained at least half their weight loss for up
to 2 years after leaving the program and 23% maintained between 75-100% of
their loss – far better than most diet programs.
Time magazine in the early 80’s ran a story on subliminal
messages being played in stores to reduce shoplifting. Time quote:
"About 50 department stores in the U.S. and Canada have installed the
device [black box] to reduce shoplifting and employee theft. One undisclosed
East Coast chain is said to have cut the number of thefts by 37%, for a savings
of $600,000, during a nine-month trial. The box is also being used by
psychologists to help people lose weight, stop smoking and overcome phobias
like fear of flying.”
Rita Sullivan, the director of an alcohol and
drug-counseling centre applied subliminal tapes to two experimental groups of
alcoholics as an adjunct to counseling.
When in a deeply relaxed state, they were exposed to the tapes merely 5
times during the treatment period. The first experimental group received a stop
drinking subliminal tape, the second a stress-reduction tape and a third control
group only received counseling. The 3 months after treatment was completed,
alcohol consumption of the experimental groups was less than half that of the
control group. Moreover the group exposed to the stop-drinking tape scored
better than the other groups on a few key indicators including adjustment to
work and alcohol consumption.
