This is really a two headed coin, while part of me wants to say not it does not, the other part is screaming out yet it does. Ok let me qualify that sentence. From my years of being a hypnotist, I would have to say yes. I have seen too much over the years to deny its power. However from a different point of view I would say no, there is not a lot of prove to say that it does work. Let me put it this way, the old saying “A picture paints a thousands words” it is very true and works well with the sub-conscious mind. If you have ever been to see a hypnotist for any reason, be it on stage or in a clinic, what does he tell you to do? Yes that's right he tells you to imagine you are somewhere or doing something, he is painting a picture for your sub-conscious mind.

When we try to relate that to a subliminal CD or tape we are left with a problem. How do we paint pictures with short sentences, I have my doubts that we can. All subliminal messages I have had anything to do with, fall short when it comes to pictures. Do not get me wrong, I am not against subliminal messaging at all, I just question the validity of such a medium without pictures. They all consist of messages recorded at just below the conscious minds ability to hear, while the belief that the subconscious mind can in fact pickup the messages and set to carrying out the affirmation etc. I have a lot of doubts that it really works with affirmations alone. Why do we need pictures to reinforce the affirmations? We use pictures in the field of hypnosis to reinforce what is being said by the hypnotist, this creates a certain pull towards the subconscious mind.

I assume that everybody reading this does know what the subconscious mind is, and at least has a little working knowledge of its power. The title posed a question that deserves an answer, in short I think they do work albeit not very well. Why? You might ask. Because of a number of variables. Firstly the CDs and tape you buy through a catalog or in a music type shop are very genetic. They are designed to be a fix all, because it is simply not viable to record many different ones for a certain type of problem or person. Once the recipient has a CD or Tape all loaded to go, the only affirmation that come out of the music are themselves generic. All the tracks on a certain CD or tape are usually recorded by the one person. What happens if you don't like his or her voice? Certainly you do not hear in the conscious mind and I doubt that the subconscious mind can work with a voice it does not like.

So what is the answer to this dilemma, you need a voice that is familiar and pleasing with the ability to talk in a way that would create pictures in the subconscious mind of the recipient. The perfect choice would be yourself, however this poses another difficulty, what does the average person know about recording one of these type CDs or Tapes. How many people have the knowledge let alone the equipment? I believe I have come up with the perfect answer, let the recipient create there own CDs and Tapes. Before you say “I could never do that” the answer is yes you can. With the latest product that kowhai productions have released, almost anybody can, including you. Steps, is such a product and will take you through the whole process step by step. Including a couple of backing tracks, beat tracks even a script to get you going. Won’t you be surprised when you have a complete track all together in 5 minutes? Yes by recording these CDs yourself, I believe that the success rate will be far greater. You not only have the voice that would not upset the subconscious mind you would have the ability to put the passion in your voice so as to paint a picture for the subconscious mind. The First 100 people buying this product will save $10 dollars off the price. Why pay $29.95 when you could only be paying $19.95. If the price says $19.95 then you are one of the lucky ones.
