HOY-Because I HAD to try it...

[rono]

What you're not realizing with your doubts about the subconscious resistance is that the conscious and the subconscious are COMPLETELY different awarenesses, and they frequently have COMPLETELY different points of view, responses and desires.  I have been in this field since 1992.  Trust me when I say I think it's a subconscious effort at fear based sabotage.  There are several things that point to that.

So here's what I want you to do.

First, you almost certainly have it way too loud.  That will tell your subconscious that the urgency is extremely high, and it may not be able to keep up with what it believes is expected of it if that happens.  This can result in depression and it simply giving up, either because it exhausts itself trying so hard or because it feels hopeless to satisfy the urgency it perceives.  This is why I specify in the instructions that you should play it on your cell phone through the speakers, and I even give you a specific volume to use.

So.

FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS.  Play it on your cell phone speaker, and use the specified volume.  Use FLAC.  The only thing I want you to change is the number of days off per cycle.  Set that to 1.

When I give the instructions, it is because I know things you probably don't about what's in it and how it and your subconscious work.  It is very important to follow the directions, and ONLY change things once (and if) you see that it's not working when used EXACTLY according to the instructions, or you get AutoConfig telling you to change it.

Let's see how things go when you follow the directions for 2 or 3 cycles.

Not being picky here, @Shannon, just clarifying.
1) if there is a loud window a/c running because of the 90 degree weather
2) AND there is a case on the cell phone that is difficult to remove
3) AND that case makes it difficult to hear normal music and spoken word under normal circumstances,

Do I have to take the case off each night to play the sub or is it ok to just turn it to the top end of the range you assign?
I assume also that I must download a special player for FLAC files since Apple won't play them

and is it ok to put a towel over the phone so that the light doesn't bother me when it flashes on for whatever reason during the night and leave it in airplane mode with wireless and bluetooth turned off?

The best app for flac is Vox mp3 & flac player. It makes a playlist and if you add files to offline they won't use any data or need wifi.

Hey @Shannon -- I can't figure out how to use Vox app, I downloaded it and it wants me to give a bunch of money just to use the app to listen to my music as far as I can tell. I added (accidentally) all my iTunes stuff, but when I finally found how to add an audio file by URL it had me 'create a collection' but it disappeared. I can't figure out how to make a playlist or anything. The website isn't helpful either, it's just an ad for lossless music players (Vox). It may be that this is really for Apple/Mac users. While I have an iPhone, I have never used a Mac since the 90s. 

I suppose any player that I can figure out how to use for free that accepts FLAC will be adequate?

Hey Rono, it's a free app. Download Flacbox I use it. It works with google drive that is free on your iPhone. Than click on Connect tab & select Google Drive. It will say My Drive. Than you want to make a playlist. Click on playlist & create add files you want on your google drive. On cloud services, click google drive and select your file and done and once added. If you tap on the 3 dot it opens a window for choices hit add to playlist. Until you finish putting your playlist together. I know  when you add to offline files you can always use it. Hope that helps....

Hey, thanks, Z-Man--- I ended up trying 'Flac player+' quick download, super easy to setup. Did it in less time than it took me to fool around with Vox and get nowhere. Seems like that should be a good-enough approach. Will try it tonight.
Sounds like I should have done Flacbox because I keep a lot of my music on my google drive anyway. I'll go that route after trying this one, if there're any issues at all, like the difficulty of uploading music.

Thanks!
