(Well, actually, rather a big one.)
I've become quite curious as to several things:
-To what extent can the human mind (and by extension, the subconscious) be altered through hypnosis?
-What kind of improvements can one have in his or her own life with consistent mental conditioning?
-With enough conditioning, can it give an individual a heightened resistance to things like depression, emotional trauma, confidence issues, etc.
-What kinds of negative effects are out there that can occur through such high levels of conditioning?
That is why I've decided to make myself into a guinea pig to:
1) Answer the above questions.
2) Do my best to improve myself mentally, physically, and emotionally in the process.
3) Properly make use of hypnosis to improve myself. Simply laying in bed every night with random files playing is not enough.
With all of this in mind, allow me to introduce to you what I call [b:f01b71a4a1]Project ReWrite[/b:f01b71a4a1]. I have set up [url=http://rewritepsyche.tumblr.com/]a small blog[/url] on Tumblr to make weekly updates to my progress, notes on anything I've noticed, and a convenient timetable of what files I will be using for conditioning. For this experiment, I will be listening to one or two files per session, and about two sessions per day to start off. This may increase over time, or decrease depending on whether I think I need to stop or slow down.
For anyone interested, below is the current timetable of files I will be using from this site. I would like to thank the Hypno-Files community, especially Hypno EMG, Carsten, Sarnoga, mooncycle, whoever shared the Steven Luzern files, and the other regular contributors for their great work.
[i:f01b71a4a1]*For sake of reference, "Phase Two" is to be repeated after every Phase has been completed. I figure about a month straight ought to do it for each phase to be completed. In some cases (such as with the longer phases) it may take two to three months)[/i:f01b71a4a1]
