Subliminal Messaging CDs - Impact Of Reverse Speech On The Subconscious

Audio Subliminal Messages Subliminal Messages are ones that are intended to reach a person s subconscious directly. This they do so by bypassing the alert, conscious mind (subliminally), through either audio or visual mechanisms. When used as a therapy, subliminal messages are communicated to the subconscious with the objective of resolving whatever negativity exists in an individual s system - such as their self-esteem, their ability to withstand criticism, their performance in bed, or whatever. (Readers interested in reading more on subliminal messages may surf my blog.)
The present method of administering audio subliminal messages is through MP3 files loaded in CDs, which can be played through any compatible CD-player, with stereo headphones attached to the ears. One CD usually contains recording of messages focusing on any one specific area that the user wants to improve upon, so one can simply browse through the catalog and pick any of one s choice. In the earlier days, these recordings were plain-vanilla human voices speaking the messages at a soft, low volume, to the tune of beautiful and soothing background music. With the latest advances in technology, however, newer techniques such as binaural beats, reverse speech, and stereo confusion have been incorporated in the recordings.
What Is Reverse Speech It was in 1996 that Australian David John Oates came out with the book - "Reverse Speech: Voices of the Unconscious". The book detailed a new path-breaking work undertaken by its author on deciphering the hidden messages that a person - any person - sends out whenever they open their mouth to speak.
According to David Oates, every human being communicates at two levels. The first is the outward, superficial level which is in the form of the audible sound that they make when they begin moving their jaws. The statements uttered at this outward level are an outcome of the speaker s conscious mind proactively processing its thoughts. There may be selective filtering of thoughts at this level, as the speaker may deliberately and "consciously" camouflage all that they are thinking.
However, try as they might, human beings are unable to fully camouflage their very basal thoughts. So while they are mouthing their nicely-filtered statements, their hidden thoughts too leak out as a component of the same statements. This component forms the second level of communication. The human ear is unable to detect this component, as it is at a subliminal level.
The only way to discover this second level of communication, according to Mr. Oates, is to record the audible speech, and play back the tape in reverse direction. Laced in the nonsensical gobbledygook are found perfectly intelligent statements, coming from the same speaker!
Experiments conducted by Mr. Oates reveal that when a person speaks, the thought most dominant in their mind at that moment - the thought that is straining against the walls of the conscious, aching to break out in the open, yet hemmed in by the alert, self-defending conscious mind of the speaker - is the one that invariably blurts out along with the spoken statement. It does so in a conceited manner, as if not to offend its owner. This thought may not even be relevant to the audible statement at all. For example, while the speaker may be innocently commenting on the weather, if their speech is recorded at that moment and run in the reverse, the subliminal thought that might pop up could be a guilt that their subconscious is unable to suppress and get over with!
When David Oates book was released in 1996, it was immediately lapped up as yet another New Age discovery. The specter of ordinary conversation not remaining safe any longer loomed upon an awed society. People who had lots to hide began contemplating long bouts of silence, lest their voices should be taped by rivals lurking in the shadows! However, human tendency to pooh-pooh anything out-of-the-ordinary prevailed, and skepticism and controversy around the topic ensured that interest in reverse speech among the common public died down after some time.
Incorporating Reverse Speech In Subliminal Messages Yet, the concept of Reverse Speech attracted the attention of people in the Subliminal Messaging CD industry. David Oates stopped at recording speeches of people and playing them back in reverse to reveal their subliminal thoughts. Experts in Subliminal Messaging took this thread further, and incorporated reverse speech in their soundtrack.
What the experts have done is to record a set of positive, self-affirming messages in normal human voice (but recorded at low volume), play it in reverse, then record this reverse playback again. The final output is a recording of the positive messages, but spoken in reverse! This piece is embedded in the soundtrack that goes in the CD.
Their logic in doing so is a natural extension of David Oates hypothesis, as well as the knowledge that we now have of the working of the subconscious mind. Usually this reverse speech portion is played out with a background of binaural beats, and after about twenty minutes of straight-forward subliminal messaging has already been beamed. By the time the reverse messages portion begins playing, the mind of the listener is already stabilized in a meditative state, and is therefore receptive of all incoming signals coming from the two earphones. And when the already-low-volume, totally unintelligible reverse-speech soundtrack begins playing, the conscious component of the mind simply ignores it, leaving the door wide open for the positive, self-affirmatory messages to reach the subconscious. When they do, the subconscious simply flips the reversed-messages backwards, and hears and understands them in toto. Once understood, the subconscious goes to work on them, and the magic of positive self-transformation begins!
The whole purpose behind having reverse speech as part of the Subliminal Message soundtrack is to prevent a possibly jaded and cynical conscious to block positive messages from reaching the subconscious.
Final Word Yes, it would be quite appropriate to say that the Subliminal Messaging CD industry has come a long way. There are several players in the market - some of them offer only reversely recorded messages, others offer a combination of all advance techniques. (I have been using CDs of this site, and they have a combination of all the latest techniques known to man.) If you have a personal issue that you have been struggling with, my advice is to try these subliminal messages - they are the nutrition that your soul truly needs.

Sunburn Treatment - Few Effective Herbal Remedies

Sunburn is a burn which is caused on skin due to overexposure to the sun. Sunburn can be caused not only due to exposure to the sun, but also to tanning lamps, UV light, etc. Sunburns could be darkening of color of the skin quite like tanning, or they may also cause other kinds of burns such as chapping of the skin, discoloration and even blistering. Sunburns may burn or tingle for a few hours even after the exposure to the sun is stopped. Some people are affected from sunburns more easily than the others. It has been found that people with fairer skin have more chances of getting sunburned than people with darker skins.
It is obvious that people who visit beaches often also get sunburns very frequently. People who sunbathe and deliberately work on getting a tan on their skins have a high risk of sunburn. Wearing clothing minimizes the chances of getting sunburns. Hence it is found that people who put on swimwear get sunburns only on the exposed parts of their skins.
Though most sunburns are mild problems that correct themselves in a few days, constantly getting your skin sunburned can increase the chances of skin cancer. Therefore, it is not good to expose your skin to the sun more than it is necessary.
Useful Herbs in the Treatment of Sunburn
- Indian Aloe (Aloe barbadensis) The Indian aloe, more commonly known as the aloe vera, is a good sunscreen while going out on the beach. Its paste must be applied on the skin before going out into the sun. It is a natural barricade to the harmful rays of the sun.
- Sandalwood (Santalum alba) Sandalwood, known commonly in India as chandana, is known for its cooling properties. But at the same time it is a herbal sunscreen. Its paste is applied on the skin. However the paste is generally diluted because it becomes too thick and stretches uncomfortably on the skin.
Dietary Guidelines for Treatment of Sunburn
If you have sunburn, then it most certainly means that your skin has become dehydrated. You will have to replenish the water content. Drink lots of water (even though it makes you urinate a lot), and also stick to a liquid diet if possible for one whole day. Eat a lot of fruits that are high in water content such as watermelons, oranges, sweet limes and cantaloupes.
Ayurvedic Treatments for Sunburn
In case of mild sunburns, water therapies are used. But if the sunburn is severe, then medicaments such as satadhuta ghritam, aranaladi taila and chandanadi taila are used for external application.
Home Remedies for Treatment of Sunburn
- If the sunburn is mild enough, then you can effectively use a cold and wet compress to correct the problem. This must be done for ten to fifteen minutes, thrice daily till the sunburn has healed completely. You can add some baking soda to the water to get better relief.
- Almost all creams available in the market are good enough for simple sunburns. You must make sure that vitamin E is an ingredient of the cream, though.
- For slightly more aggravated sunburns, you can have a tub bath in cool water. Be sure to keep the sunburned parts of your skin for at least fifteen minutes in the water. There will be better effects if the water is in constant motion, like in a Jacuzzi.
- If the sunburn has affected your cheeks and the areas under your eyes, then used tea bags or slices of cucumber, potato and tomato can be placed on those regions.
- Mix tomato juice in buttermilk, in the ratio of 1:6 by composition. Apply this on the sunburned parts. Both these sour elements will help the skin to be healed very quickly.
- You can take cabbage or lettuce leaves and soak them in cold water or refrigerate them. When they are cold enough, lay them on the affected parts of the skin. This will reduce the sunburns and heal them.
- Apply lanolin lotion to the skin before going out in the sun. This will act as a sunscreen and prevent your skin from the sunburns.
- For sunburns on the face, this is a very good recipe. Mix some barley powder in milk and make it into a paste. Add little olive oil to it. Then add honey and the white of an egg. Blend the whole thing into a consistent paste and apply it on the skin. This method is only effective for sunburns on the face.
- If your skin is tanning on exposure to the sun, then it is actually a good sign. Nature has provided us with this protection. The tanning is caused due to extra secretion of the pigment melanin. This makes the skin darker, which reduces the chances of getting sunburns.

Craniosacral Therapy

Craniosacral therapy is a way of improving the environment in which the brain and nervous system live and work. It is an effective enabling activity for facilitating functional activities. Therapists use it to decrease pain and spasticity, increase range of motion, encourage optimal immune and parasympathetic nervous system functioning, facilitate autonomic flexibility, decrease tone and edema, break up scar tissue, balance the spinal and pelvic structures, relieve stress, and promote relaxation. It can also be used to find and eliminate emotional issues stored in the tissues.
Light touch coupled with intent and direction of energy is used to bring the cranial, spinal, and pelvic structured back into balance and to remove blockages that the body s own physiologic forces have been unable to overcome. One of the hallmarks of craniosacral therapy is the use of a very light touch. The amount of pressure used is seldom more than 1 ounce, and is often more on the order of 5 grams the weight of a nickel. By using such gentle pressure, the therapist assists the client s body to self-correct and avoids encountering resistance. An experiential example can facilitate understanding of how light touch decreases resistance. For example, imagine a hard pull on one of your arms. Your immediate reaction is to resist by holding back against the pull. Thus protecting yourself. The use of light touch is a way of not engaging the body s natural tendency to resist change. Reliance on the inherent self-correcting mechanism of the body is another of the hallmarks of craniosacral therapy. This approach relies on the body s own wisdom and desire to move toward homeostasis to guide the treatment session. Treatment is a cooperative effort between the therapist who is trying to help the system work more effectively and the person receiving treatment. For this reason, treating the craniosacral system is not only useful for correcting disease, but also for promoting a high level of wellness.

How to Build Chest Muscle Lightning Fast in 3 Easy Steps

If you ve been trying to build chest muscle but aren t seeing the gains you were looking for then there are a few key steps you can take to build chest muscle in lightning speed.

How to Build Chest Muscle Step I Dissect your chest work out

If you want to build chest muscle you have to dissect your chest workout. Your chest which consists of your pectorals pecs are pretty big muscles, which means you re going to have work out different parts of your chest one at a time if you want maximum results and the fastest gains possible.

It s real simple. All you have to do is break down your chest workout or chest exercises to work out the 4 main parts of your chest.

These 4 parts are your upper chest, your lower chest, your inner chest and your outer chest.

Here are a few exercises you can use to build chest muscle very quickly.

Upper Chest Muscle Exercises

- Incline Barbell Bench press - Military Dumbbell Presses - Incline Dumbbell Flyes

Lower Chest Muscle Exercises

- Decline Barbell Bench press - Parallel Bar Dips - Decline Dumbbell Flyes

Inner Chest Muscle Exercises

- Standing Cable Crossovers - Flat Bench Dumbbell Flyes

Outer Chest Muscle Exercises

- Flat Bench Barbell Presses - Flat Bench Dumbbell Flyes

By dissecting your chest workout in this way you will not only build chest muscle fast but you build ALL the different areasof your chest muscle which leads to a bigger, stronger and wider chest.

How to Build Chest Muscle Step II Work Your Chest to Failure

If you want to build chest muscle, you have to train your chest to failure. If you don t know what I mean, it s very simple. You have to push your chest muscles to the point where it is unable to do any more reps on its own during that set.

This is why you also NEED a spotter someone to help you when your muscles fail during an exercise. For example, if you re bench pressing and your muscles fail halfway on your last rep, you want someone there to assist you, so you can keep pushing even though your muscles have failed that s the key to unlocking HUGE muscle gains.

When you train your chest muscle to failure like this, your body says Woe, I better start sending more nutrients (protein, water, calories, etc.) to build my chest muscles so next time we deal with this stress (weight training to failure), it won t be as strenuous as last time . Training like this can and will lead to HUGE chest muscle gains quickly.

How to Build Chest Muscle Step III Don t Cheat on Your Negatives

What are negatives ? Negatives are the eccentric or lowering phase of your particular exercise. For example, if you were bench pressing, your negative would be when you are lowering the barbell once you ve reached the top. In other words, negative is the motion you take after you have contracted your targeted muscle (in this case lowering the barbell after we have contracted our chest muscle to push the barbell to the top).

Most people use gravity during negatives instead of having a controlled movement downward. This is what I call cheating your negatives and it s also hazardous to your muscles. Think about it, if you just finished pushing a 150lb barbell upward, it ll be pretty dangerous and useless when you re trying to build muscle if you just relaxed your chest muscles as soon as you were about to lower that barbell it.

Instead, take your time and bring the weight down in a controlled motion and try to really feel the burning in your chest muscle as you lower the weight thus stretching and really targeting your chest muscles as a result.

Remember, it s not quantity but quality. Think about it, you could lift 30 pounds ten times with poor form or 30 pounds six times with proper form, and you would notice much better results with the latter example

So don t cheat yourself out of building the massive chest you desire by cheating on your negatives this is when much of the pressure is being put on your muscles, so don t wimp out .

To anyone who wants to learn how to build chest muscle and quickly at that simply follow these 3 simple steps and you ll be on the road to a massive chest in no time.
