Are Hemi-Sync tapes subliminal?
No. “Subliminal” implies that a specific verbal message is recorded below audible level and often at high speed. The intention is to embed a particular thought in the mind of the listener. By comparison, Hemi-Sync signals, although recorded at a sub-audible level, are not verbal messages and are not recorded at high speed. The intention of the Hemi-Sync signals is to assist the listener into a state conducive to the development of self-directed experience. Several Hemi-Sync tapes contain sleep periods during which verbal guidance is recorded at a very low level so as not to awaken the listener. The script during these periods is a repetition of the information heard previously on the tape.
