1. I can do it in a day, but that means a simple BWE program that would relatively likely have you unconscious or close to it, or
2. I build a BWE that uses multiple simultaneous major BW states, but requires weeks or months to figure out, build and refine before release.

If you think about it, the Core States and the advanced meditations BWE programs both have at least one track that can do this.  The Core States Theta.  The more advanced one you would want states between 4.5 and 6.5 Hz.  So there's no need to build a new one.  And I don't have time to make the advanced multi-state BWE for this.

Thanks guys, have placed my order! 

Lano beat me to it, but I have the same question. I usually play LTU5 at ultrasonic on my iPhone during many of the hours in which I would write - would it be okay to play the binaurals through headphones and have the LTU5 ultrasonic playing through my iPhone simultaneously?

Hey @Benjamin , could you process my order if you get a chance? Would be great to have this to use when I wake up tomorrow morning, thank you.

Quote:Are You a High-Value Man?
This book is for high-value men. Sometimes that term refers to a man’s income, or to the bounty on his head. Here it refers to the kind of man, rich or poor, whom women seek out for long-term commitment.
I didn’t invent the term. I’m not that clever. It comes from evolutionary psychology, a field of study explaining the behavior that helped humanity thrive. We have an amazing number of mental and behavioral predispositions that evolutionary psychologists refer to as adaptations. They keep us alive.
For example, worrying about the future is an adaptation that compels us to store food for lean times. A sense of humor is an adaptation that helps men attract women. Even pessimism appears to be adaptive. It’s a variety of error-management, a mental calculus that helps us prevent unpleasant surprises. It can be useful so long as it doesn’t get out of hand.
The high-value man, according to evolutionary psychologists, is one who possesses what women look for. In an outstanding review of evolutionary research, David Schmitt (2005) described the most basic, animalistic traits men and women seek in each other.
“Men place a greater premium on signals of fertility and reproductive value such as a woman’s youth and physical appearance,” he wrote. No surprise there.

“In contrast, women place a greater premium on a man’s status, resources, ambition, and maturity—cues relevant to his ability for long- term provisioning—and to his kindness, generosity, and emotional openness—cues to his willingness to provision women and their children.” Again, no surprises.
I know what some of you are thinking: we are all complex individuals with unique motivations. I agree, but beneath our individual complexities are ancient predispositions driving our desires. Men, in general, prefer a nice hip-to-waist ratio. Women, in general, prefer a nice debt-to-asset ratio.
So what constitutes a high-value man in the modern world? It appears little has changed since our ancestors were hunting and gathering. A man’s value to women boils down to those two words Dr. Schmitt italicized: ability and willingness .
High-value men have the ability to be long-term providers. That doesn’t necessarily mean they’re wealthy. It simply means they possess certain qualities like foresight, discipline, a social network, resourcefulness, intelligence, and humor.
High-value men also have the willingness to stick around. Willingness is evident in qualities like generosity, emotional stability, and the ability to maintain emotional bonds. Maybe that’s why so many young couples end up with dogs. Puppies were probably invented so women could test men’s willingness to commit to a noisy, hungry creature with poor bowel control.
Essentially, the high-value man is open to commitment and professionally squared away—or at least he’s headed in that direction. I’d like to add one more trait to the list: masculinity. The high-value man doesn’t relinquish his testicles or apologize for possessing them. He cultivates those male qualities that benefit himself and the people he loves. In our society there is a small, noisy contingent of women (and a few men) who insist that masculinity is destructive and outdated, but I can assure you they are the minority.
When I surveyed women a few years ago for a different project, I asked them what they liked most about men. Most of the women were quite vocal about the qualities they appreciate in a man:
“Humor. Protectiveness. Strength.”
“Their sense of humor, their masculinity and strength.” “Their confidence, strength, and tendency to be easy-going.”
Strength and level-headedness were a major theme. They expressed adoration for masculine traits like independence and competitiveness. In my decade as a psychologist, I’ve heard plenty of complaints about husbands and boyfriends, but I have never heard a woman wish that her man was more like a girl.

Ability, willingness, and a masculine nature. If you possess these traits, then you possess what most women seek in a husband or partner. Congratulations. You’re a high-value man. It’s good to be wanted, isn’t it?

I have been working non-stop on finishing the Tranquilizer B program after I found that error 20 minutes before I was going to publish the first build.  It will be finished today.  After that I will be focusing all my efforts on finishing FRM 4.9 as quickly as possible, which is the bottleneck for a lot of other things, and it is past time for it to be finished.  Round Robin only if I start to burn out.  But since everything has been going wrong for a while now, who knows.  That's my plan.

First, there is a flaw in the article you included and that is that it assumes that all "high value men" are only "high value" because they have the traits that make them high value to women. (We will leave the discussion of the potential change to this if the man and his admirers are gay men, as it complicates the subject enough to be distracting from my central point in this instance, without adding much to the specific discussion you bring up.) 

That is only one definition, and a very skewed one.

AM6 is about a man's achievement of his own highest potentials as a self-leading, self-reliant and self-capable man, for his own highest good. 

It doesn't rely on what women want or think as a measure of what its goals are.  It is about making the user a true, Transcendental Alpha.  The nice thing about that is, when a man does that, everything else naturally and automatically falls into place.  When he becomes his own support system, mentally, emotionally, financially, physically, he can (and typically will) do and achieve anything he chooses to.  As a Transcendent Alpha, he is not beholden to the group hierarchy for his ranking.  He is only beholden to himself.  If he chooses to do something, nothing but his own choices is holding him back.  

This type of man is at once invisible to, and very attractive to, women.  Invisible because he may or may not choose to be noticed, and because some women don't understand what a real alpha is.  They have been brainwashed into thinking only guys like Dwayne Johnson and Arnold Schwartzenegger are "alpha".  They don't look twice at guys who don't fit that stereotype, unless they happen to get to know him.  Then, his natural traits are going to trigger her natural attraction, to whatever degree her brainwashing has not subverted it.

This type of man is very attractive to women because once she notices him, once she realizes what he is, she's going to have attraction triggered naturally and automatically as a result.  Different women will be more or less attracted to individual men who are TAs, but there will almost always be attraction resulting from his natural displays of his achieving some or all of his highest potentials as a man.  

AM6 is about improving the man, and everything else is a natural consequence.  And yes, I agree, I should not have added a SM lead in.  That will not be present in AM7.

It's "only" that your frame of reference come from within yourself rather than being triggered by something outside yourself. 

Quote:By the way regarding FRM - I had big problems with AM, more than most - and I have been reflecting much on why. I think that my biggest fear - of letting go of fear - was that my sense of self was hidden behind fear - and if I would let go of fear - I wouldn't be able to control my behavior so my sense of self wasn't in danger of being challenged - as this challenging would be impossible as I wouldn't had anything to put against this challenge - which felt like I would die (I'm still not sure if this death would be impossible - you need to have some sense of self to be able to let go of fear otherwise it's nothing there...) - thus I think the extreme resistance that let to suicidal thoughts. 

It just hit me so I thought I would share it with you as I read you are working on it again. The logic is probably not fully complete but it's that far I understand it myself at this point.

The fact is, that fearful part of you doesn't die when I succeed in getting you to do what the script is asking you to do; it simply stops being afraid.  But the nature of fear is, as you stated, that there is often a fear of being without fear, because the perception is that "fear keeps me safe".  In reality, logic keeps you just as safe, and fear is really only useful for keeping you safe before you develop enough understanding to use that logic.  After that, it's only useful for limiting you in irrational ways.

AM6 doesn't have a FRM.  It has my earliest attempts at dealing with fear in the method I was using before FRM, which was an effort at "healing and clearing" the fears and their causes.  That would specifically be EHPRA v1.
