US/LM run

[Benjamin]

I don't know why all of a sudden there's so many issues of listening 8 hours. For years we had to listen 8+ hours to 4g and 5g and there was never any issues, most people would just listen at night. Now all of a sudden it's a big issue for everyone.

[Paul1131]

It’s the uninterrupted part that’s the problem. It’s never been an issue to get eight hours total listening time in, but getting it without the slightest pause is going to be a challenge. I will certainly give it a try, but sometimes my day to day life might get in the way.

ASRB is a way of maximizing the results. If you break it, they won't be as good. But getting in the time is still how you get any results. Never break ASRB1 or 2 if you can help it. But always get in your time.

I never saw any results from using US, so I dont play it. I play masked on earphones so I know I am getting the max benefit. If I play masked on my phone (which is mono I think, and not too loud), how can I guarantee I am getting any benefit at all?

I had kind of an odd experience while I was trying to sleep this afternoon. I was in that twilight state between wakefulness and sleep, and had a sort of dream. Little background here. I didn’t do well in school. Like, at all well until the last half of high school. It’s not that I’m dumb, my IQ is actually in the lower reaches of the genius range. It’s that I didn’t see a reason to do what these weird random adults were telling me to when I could be doing my own thing. I am definitely not in the place in my life that I could be in had this not been the case.
Anyway, in this dream, (term used loosely for lack of a better one. I was very well aware that I was lying in bed, and that this was happening in my head). I was back in kindergarten. Where I had ignored my work before, I was doing it, correctly. I knew everything I do now, and knew the effect that my lack of attention would have on me now. I thought that I was able to actually change my past and the consequences of it, as well as the bad habits I developed back then.
Does that make sense to anyone else, or should I just not eat tacos before bed? This happened BEFORE I started using the new version.
I am currently about a loop and a quarter into my first run of the new version. I am at work, and running it through AirPods. I put it on just before I left for work so it finishes before the boss gets in in the morning. I was a bit concerned about driving, but it seemed to make me more alert rather than less. Other than that, I have experienced several vivid “daydreams” about getting the job that I’m in the hiring process for right now, and getting the house that my wife really wants. I will update as stuff happens.

Dang it. I interrupted my run when I paired my new iPod with my Bose portable speaker. It stopped sometime in the second run, and re started loop two rather than where I’d left off. Guess I get a little extra tonight. It’s ok, occasionally got interrupted doing the first one, restarted loops and I still got pretty stellar results.

The format is always a subliminal, regardless of whether you use ultrasonic, masked or hybrid. The fact that you are listening to a subliminal means you are being affected by it, regardless of format. Each format affects a different level of your subconscious, and that may result in resistance or acceptance. That is part of why we have multiple formats.

If you find a format that produces outwardly observable results for you, you will get the best results from headphones because they offer perfect stereo separation and constant audio volume in each ear. But that is not to say you cannot get good results from using it on a cell phone with a mono speaker. The results won't be the best they could be, but they will still be good results.

The rest is up to you.

Very interesting. How much before you started using it did this happen?

Just a few hours. I woke up about six PM yesterday, and started running it on my way to work at about eight thirty. Correction. That happened when I woke up in the middle of my sleep cycle. I’d say maybe three or four in the afternoon (Mountain time).

Lesson from last night. Use the old school corded earbuds with my IPOD to run this. Stick it in your pocket, stick the buds in your ears, and don’t mess with it. I was using the air buds, and they worked fine until they died about five hours into my run. I also disrupted it when I tried to pair it with another device with Bluetooth. That’s two disruptions. Tonight, none so far.
I am able to use the hybrid trickling stream track, and still be aware enough of my surroundings to do my job well. In fact, it seems to keep me more alert and less distractable than usual. I am not spending so much time dinking around on YouTube and whatnot to kill boredom.
Today I felt pretty calm and mellow. Nothing major happened, and there was no repeat of the half awake dreaming from yesterday. I am peripherialy aware that there is kind of something running in the background of my mind, but I’m not sure exactly what it is.
I was thinking about my waking dream from yesterday. I am going to attribute it to the new sub even though it happened a few hours before I started it. (What do you guys call that effect again?) If that can happen, I can indeed mess with my past on some level and have some kind of effect on my present and future. I don’t know how that works, but I do know that time isn’t quite as linear as it seems, and the past isn’t as immutable as most people think. Now, do I think that this is going to literally change what physically happened back then, and I’m going to wake up tomorrow as a millionaire Harvord educated attorney? No. But I do think that I can change some aspect of my life by eh, call it reliving certain key moments in my past and making better choices. I think that moment I went back to was the one where I really said “Screw this school nonesense”. And it really seemed like I was there, while simultaneously being well aware that I was somewhere else. Weird. There are many more moments I will have to visit if this thing is doing what I siluspect that it is. Don’t know if I will be aware of it. I very rarely remember a dream, but I think I have some insight into what’s running in the background now.
One piece of luck today. I was thinking that I needed some of the old corded earbuds, knew that I had had several pairs at some point, but no idea where they’d have gotten to. Right after I asked my wife, I looked down and there one of them was. Small thing, but right there when I wanted it.

One disruption of ASRB when I accidentally activated Siri when taking it out to check the battery level. Less than a second, so I doubt it matters much. Will have to turn her off.

Just ended the second day’s loops and I feel on top of the world. I feel like all of the little traumas from my life never happed. I can think back on some of the things in my life that have messed me up, and they didn’t happen that way. Or more I chose at the time to react to them differently. Even though I, well, didn’t. This thing is a past editor. There is some cognitive dissonance that should be bugging me, but it isn’t.

Thats awesome man! Sounds like the FRM at play!

I woke up tired yesterday, but nothing too bad. Felt really good all day, which I spent running various errands. The bank teller and one of the retail clerks I dealt with were especially chatty, and were borderline flirting. The teller especially would not break eye contact with me, even when I tried, played with her hair and all that too. That’s not why I’m running this sub, and I had zero intent to do anything about it, but it’s not normal, and perhaps an interesting side effect.
I plugged in and pressed play before leaving for work as usual. No daydreams during my run tonight because I was talking to a buddy of mine most of the night.
I did feel a whole lot of chi pooling around my head. It felt like I was wearing a helmet.
