20-Minute Non-Sleep Deep Rest & Recovery for High Performers With Theta Binaural Beats

DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS WHILE DRIVING! This is a 20-Minute Non-Sleep Deep Rest (NSDR) & Recovery for High Performers is to be used in the middle of the day for recovery and recharging. It starts with a hypnotic eye induction leading to slow RSA breathing to activate the parasympathetic nervous system (this breathing strategy is the most evidence-based way to do so). I then walk you through releasing your muscles from your feet to your head. After a relaxation deeper, I provide suggestions for rest and recovery before providing suggestions to re-orient rested, recovered, and ready for the rest of the day. Embedded within the music are theta binaural beats which is thought to enhance the hypnotic process and relax your mind even more. Make sure you won't be disturbed for the duration of the hypnosis. Best to sit down in a comfortable chair, lean back on a couch or recliner, or lie down. In this recording, I use some of the most evidence based methods for relaxing the body and mind. The most unique part is the addition of Dr. Fred Shaffer's work on Slow-Paced (muscle) Contraction (SPC). Given the massive body of research showing the importance and benefits of five seconds in and five seconds of breathing, I've combined that with SPC. I theorize that this will enhance the effect on the parasympathetic nervous system. Below are some studies on SPC. Shaffer, F., & Meehan, Z. M. (2024).

Applied Psychophysiology and Biofeedback. The suggestions for mental toughness or mental fortitude are based on my forthcoming book on mental fortitude. It is based on REBT/Stoic philosophy, theory and research. What hypnosis is: o It's something you do, not something that is done to you. It's a skill (a verb), not a passive state (noun). o A focused state of attention or absorption (like you may get reading a good book or watching a good movie) that helps you respond to suggestions that you find valuable. o It’s like guided-daydreaming-- you’re still aware but absorbed. o In a more relaxed and receptive state your mind is more likely to integrate suggestions you want. o Goal is to engage in your imagination to strengthen the power of your own mind. Your brain won’t accept suggestions you don’t want or like (e.g., to quack like a duck). You’re always in control. Your mind is in charge, and you decide how much to embrace the suggestions. Research shows it’s more than placebo and relaxation. Lots of evidence for many areas: o Pain o Anxiety o Stress o Depression o Smoking cessation o IBS o Sleep o Bad habits o Confidence o Self-esteem o Focus o Motivation o Sport & Work Performance You are not expected to & not necessary to be in a "deep trance". It helps to be at least mildly relaxed and focused on what I say. Just allow yourself to relax. It works best when you focus on what I’m saying and imagine it happening. Just allow yourself to become absorbed in your own experience and allow your mind to respond to the suggestions. You may not be aware of everything I say during the session and that’s OK. You may get close to sleep which is fine too.
