What's Paraliminal?
Paul R. Scheele uses a form of 'hypnosis' (if you can even call it that) he calls Paraliminal sessions,
scientific research mixed with a healthy dose of spirituality produced loads of sessions to help you
better your life.
He introduces each Paraliminal CD with the purpose or programming parameters for the
listening session. Then, Paul skillfully guides you to a state of relaxed alertness while original
music plays in the background.
When you are relaxed, music fades and Paul’s voice transforms into multiple voices. The left
voice generally weaves metaphors for the creative right brain, and the right voice generally
leads you through logical change processes for the analytical left brain.
The multiple voices soothe and relax. Do not try to listen to the voices - just enjoy the flow
and rhythm.
To finish, Paul’s voices become one and music returns as he guides you back to full alertness.
Euphoria:
This is IMO Scheele's greatest work, a compilation of different systems to better one's
life. Each disc contains a talk of an expert on different interesting subjects accompagnied
with some form of meditation or method to get over the past or get better in the future.
1. Paul Scheele Euphoria & Paraliminal Session (gotta love them drums!)
2. Hale Dwoskin - Sedona Method; Release & let go: could you, would you, when?
3. Trinidad Hunt - Living in your center - Clearing & Revitalization
4. Chunyi Lin - Qi Gong - Meditation
5. Bill Harris - Meditation & holosync (my favorite meditation to date after AYP!)
6. Rex & Carolyn Sykes - Attitude Activator
Among the single/double Paraliminal sessions I enjoyed are:
Dream Play (lucid & directed dreaming)
Prosperity (attraction)
Personal Genius (accelerated learning)
Belief (install new ones)
Genius Code
Resiliency (not excellent though)
Other great larger courses that look very interesting (not just paraliminal):
Sharm software: Sharm is a great hypnosis program that lets you compose
your own hypnosis tracks, it has sessions on over 15 subjects with multiple options for each. You can edit those
or record your own and choose which binaural beats or suggestions to use, and much moore. It's quite excellent!
[I substituted my Holosync Awakening Prologue (which is part of a continues and expensive program), which I tried for
a week and a half and was not serving me well at all, the dumbass bells made my thoughts race and were very distracting - I substituted it with] a
alpha intro to long theta back to alpha outro mp3 with ambient sounds and nature sounds from Sharm and was very happy
to find my samadhi (stilness) back in meditation and my wonderful 'zone' feeling afterwards meditation. I've also tried
a delta waves session which expectedly made me fall asleep right away for a nice nap! Will be compiling a lot of
hypnosis sessions too. Love this program, do try it out! You can export sessions into a wav file too, that you can then
easily convert to mp3.
Recommendations:
Brain Sync entire series
Dr. Jeffrey D. Thompson - Awakened Mind System (link)
Dr. Jeffrey D. Thompson - Gamma Meditation System
Dr. Jeffrey D. Thompson & Owen Morrison - Brainwave Journey: Journey of the Mind
William Buhlman's Hemi-sync work
I love Bill Harris's Holosync meditation included in Paul Scheele's Euphoria session.
Though I tried the awakening prologue which serves as a mandatory intro for the full series for a week and a half
and I didn't like it at all, the bells were very distracting and took away my samadhi during, and zone feeling after
meditation. After I tried a theta track from Sharm I noticed my samadhi and zone coming back immediately so I
definitely do not recommend this expensive and long ass program :p
I quit trying the Hemi-Sync Gateway Experience of Robert Monroe because of the lengthy procedures and
the fact that you have to remember and habitualize earlier sessions and you're supposed to know them
by heart before you can move on...
One session where you work with releasing fears was truly great though.
It's also expensive as hell...
How hypnosis got eclipsed in psychology
Another shameful aspect of psychology's history
The young Sigmund Freud studied with Liebault and Bernheim at the Nancy School and initially used hypnosis in his practice. In the end, Freud stopped using hypnosis. The reason declared publicly was that a young female patient had jumped up and kissed him. Freud professed to be shocked and concluded that hypnosis was far too volatile to use. The little known history of hypnosis records a different reason why Freud stopped using hypnosis: his cocaine usage had ruined his gums, and his false teeth did not fit well, causing him not to speak well enough to induce trance easily.
In competition with an excellent hypnotist named Breuer, Freud
invented 'talking therapy.' Freud said that his talking therapy would not be a therapy for the poor. It would take 100 to 300 hours to effect a cure.
His talking therapy became psychoanalysis and this changed the history of European psychology. Freudian psychoanalysis became the rage in psychology and it became inappropriate to use any other techniques. Consequently, hypnosis was eclipsed.
From Tad James' Hypnosis: A Comprehensive Guide: Producing Deep Trance Phenomena
"All successful communication is hypnosis."
Milton H. Erickson
"It's not a therapy group, it's a training session - if you want to go to therapy, well, we can recommend
some therapists who are very reliable, why some of their clients have seen them for 20 and 30 years." :p
