Ok, might just be my trepidations, just some thoughts and maybe a question or two, so here goes.

I have seen some of these files and they intreague me. I have some experience with hypnosis in person, phone and internet. Just wondering what all got you started in making files? What did you do first? And what ethics and morals guide you, if any? Anyways, just me rambling and considering making a series of files. All I have is RealPlayer and Quicktime so I am also wondering if those are good enough or do the job to make files.

As I said, late night ramblings of a man on his night off from working a night shift hell job.

Read... a lot. Watched & listened to a lot of hypnosis stuff (things on here, things on youtube, etc). Read some more. Tried things with a couple people I know, did my best to get feedback, and have been going from there since.

My own?

Audacity is free, use it. Also, listen to the files you record before sharing them. Did you overload the microphone a bit and get a bunch of loud fwmping noises? Redo it and be more careful. Did you gasp for breath? Repeatedly? Snip out a single one if it's a bother, but you might want to just redo it if it's the whole recording.

Have an idea of what your going to do before you record it. When doing hynosis on someone in person it's easy enough to adjust things as you go and just sorta wing it. When your doing it for a recording though, you don't have the visual/auditory/etc queues to judge the subject that you would otherwise have in person; make a script and read it over before you start. Most of the recordings I do only loosely follow the script, a simple phrase might be embellished as I go, but the general flow is there.

Edit: also like MN_FriendlyGuy mentioned, it helps a great deal to do what you can to understand a subject you are jumping into with hypnosis. Getting the little details right can make everything else just fall into place effortlessly.

I'm also kinda new and curious about the files I've found here. I guess my big question is how many and which files are for serious hypnosis needs and which are for entertainment purposes? Or which ones are thought to be serious, but mostly bogus or ineffective?

I guess I'm looking for suggestions for which files (preferably free ones) work best and which ones to avoid.

None of the files here are bogus or fake. They are all real hypnosis files and can all give the listener effects. But nobody can promise you that they will all work to this or that level. They may work great on you or may not work at all. That is due to a number of things - for example: your level of suggestibility, your mental state. If - for instance - you are subconsciously opposed or in some way nervous as to the effect of a certain file, then chances are, that it won't work at all. But if you work with a file, that you'd really like to have work, and you have no blocks about that (and you might not know that), then I say: work with it and be patient. You might have to work with certain files for years, but they will change you.

So pick what you want and choose wisely. Don't pick a file that sounds extreme and like something you'd never expect to work on you. Others have done that and have been very surprised.

Have fun.

I guess I'll try what I can find. If there are any decent free files, I may upgrade to better stuff. But I want to make sure it works for me first. Are the "What's Hot" files hot because they work well or just because they're downloaded the most?

Only you will know the right answer to this.The only true way to make sure you are hypnotised properly first time is to visit a good hypnotist face to face.MP3 files cannot be guaranteed.

Instead of asking questions on should i,could i ,will this,how much etc,just pick one that appeals to you and start.

Yes and no.They work well for the people that have used them so far,doesn't mean they will work for you,could mean they work really work well for you.

The only reason you know how ice cream tastes is because you tasted it before.
