Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 5

[Shannon]

I looked into BWE at some point in order to help me staying focused and alert but still relaxed at my job as a lawyer, but never really found anything that worked.

I know that you have a million subs in the queue, and that I personally ask about the release date for many of them often.

However, have you considered making a BWE product that people with academic office jobs can use?

Returning to building BWE is something I have thought about recently, given my persistent difficulty with the models of late.  It still takes about a day to build a BWE program, upload it, get it linked and write the description.  I can do it faster and more easily than subs, but I still have to build subs.

Have you tried Tranquilizer A for what you want?  If so, and it didn't fit your needs, what does it need changed?  

I can certainly make a BWE program for "focused and alert but relaxed", but finding the right combination of frequencies may take a while.

Thanks for you reply. IMO it would be great to have some BWE in the catalogue as well, and I really believe that you wouldn’t have to make that many different products.
 
A few thoughts on this:
 
1)   It is my understanding that the difference between a sub and BWE is that a sub reprograms you, while BWE keeps you in a certain state of mind (though it might make it easier for you to access this state after long term use). I don’t know if this is correct, but I was looking for something that I could have playing more or less all day while working to keep me in a peak state.  
2)   It was my understanding from a previous post that Tranq A would be too much if I run LTU5 and also plan to run Tranq B when available.
3)   I understood that Tranq A would relax me but maybe take some away some of my motivation, which I then concluded also meant some of my focus and alertness.
4)   What I have done in very busy periods was to use ARA for 20-30 mins max in my lunch break or on my way to work. This has seemed to work pretty good and I don’t think that it has interfered with LTU. 
 
If my assumptions below are correct (which they may not be), wouldn’t you agree that a BWE product would be more suitable for this situation than Tranq A, if I continue to run LTU?
 
Thanks a lot in advance. 
 

I will address each one separately.

1)   It is my understanding that the difference between a sub and BWE is that a sub reprograms you, while BWE keeps you in a certain state of mind (though it might make it easier for you to access this state after long term use). I don’t know if this is correct, but I was looking for something that I could have playing more or less all day while working to keep me in a peak state.  

A subliminal introduces new ideas, beliefs and instructions to your subconscious mind, and if it is used and made properly, and you don't resist it, it can change your subconscious beliefs, choices, actions, etc.  Brainwave entrainment triggers a specific state of awareness to dominate your brain.  It is possible to do "all day" with both.  However, that may have consequences, as you can train your brain to stay in a specific state if you are inducing it too much.  I believe that this is a big part of why we are seeing so much ADD/ADHD when it didn't exist pre-computers.  People spend a lot of time each day now using computers, cell phones, games, movies, etc. and this tends to train their brains to stay in the wrong state while they are awake.  Probably the best way to do this would be with a subliminal to avoid that, using it for a specific amount of time in the morning and letting it wear out during the day.

2)   It was my understanding from a previous post that Tranq A would be too much if I run LTU5 and also plan to run Tranq B when available.

Tranquilizer A is good for staying awake while inducing a calm, tranquil state, but not necessarily very good for motivation.  

3)   I understood that Tranq A would relax me but maybe take some away some of my motivation, which I then concluded also meant some of my focus and alertness.

Tranquilizer A is designed to help you stay focused and alert, but also to be very relaxed and tranquil.  If you are familiar with Zen meditation, that should help you understand.  When I was testing it while I was emotionally calm to begin with, I achieved an eyes-open state I can only describe as tranquil meditative bliss which showed me why the statues of the Buddha have that smile on them.  I understand now.  However, I haven't used it for a while because it tends to counteract the motivational effects of UMS.

4)   What I have done in very busy periods was to use ARA for 20-30 mins max in my lunch break or on my way to work. This has seemed to work pretty good and I don’t think that it has interfered with LTU.

 

You may want to try using Tranquilizer A like that as well, if you have it.  It took about 45 minutes of exposure to calm me down from frustrated or angry.  20 to 45 minutes of exposure may be good for allowing you the best of both worlds.
