So, I downloaded this app about 2 weeks ago, as part of my preparation for an upcoming recital. I have been out of the solo recital loop for a while, so getting back into it I’m finding that I get really nervous playing in front of people - whether its two or three individuals, my teacher, or a full crowd. Bare in mind that I do not experience this when playing with other musicians, only in solo context.
I’ve been using mostly two of the tracks - the “turbo practice” and “stage-fright” combination. I have not been playing in front of people that often since I started using it every day for two weeks, but I did notice some changes in my practice sessions. I am increasingly less frustrated and can practice better for longer periods of time, as opposed to sitting there for 2 hours but really only working seriously for 30 minutes…
I am excited to see if I experience any of the changes mentioned in the tracks when performing in front of other people and will be putting myself in performance situations more often as I approach my recital date, so I will definitely come back here and update my review as I keep working with this app.
I’m sure most of it is placebo effect - after all it toys with the idea that our subconscious is very powerful - but either way I don’t feel like I’ve wasted my money yet!
This doesn't work for me... not the way it was intended, at least. I never find the trance state, but it never fails to help me relax and even helps me to sleep when I have insomnia, so it gets 5 stars anyway.
This app doesn't seem to work on ios 8.3. Disappointing.
i just want to thank you for making this available. Its so relaxing. And a blessing. Thank you so much. The power of suggestion is a true marvel. As a singer songwriter ive explored more of myself as a artist and the discovery has been amazing. 🙏
Every aspect of my performance has improved since day one of using this app. Sight reading, improvising and confidence all have seen a boost since starting. The flexibility of the app is wonderful. I can use the pre gig pep talk and confidence portion before gigging or I use the sight reading and timing portion before going to big band rehearsal. Having had previous hypnotherapy experience made it easy for me to go into deep sleep using the short induction part. Again the flexibility of the app permits this, short, medium or long induction. If you're a serious musician...you need this app.
The content of this app is outstanding however the sound of this mans voice with earphones is profoundly irritating! So much so that I can't go through with it which a shame and very frustrating. Hey buddy, I'm sure you are a nice guy and all but can you do something about your voice? Nothing worse than the sound of another mans voice whispering in your ear. Maybe sound more distant, farther away from the microphone you recorded from? Just a thought. Other than that, the content is superior. Would have given 5 stars.
Great idea. I only just started using it so I should wait and review again later when I've seen results, but I already have some experience with, and belief in, the power of hypnosis and I think this app is very well done. The only critique or update I would request is an echo of the idea of allowing it to continue in background while the screen shuts down. Also I didn't find the wave sounds very convincing and therefore soothing. However I like the air sounds. I'd highly recommend this as is anyway. Another track idea I had was perhaps some way to input demos if specific songs to learn, if you catch my drift. Like a pep talk about learning the song similar to the rhythm & timekeeping track I listened to, followed by an actual song imported from iTunes? That is how I often learn new material anyway, by listening to it regularly as I fall asleep. And this works as is to help that process, but I thought could perhaps be integrated even further. Anyway, thanks for this tool, keep up the good work.
...wish I didn't have to leave my screen on all night.
Well, this WAS a pretty good app, but now after the recent iOS upgrade none of the tracks seem to work or play, so it literally does nothing on either my iPod 4 or iPhone 4S.
I've put in the hours on my instrument. These meditations help keep me out of my own head and let my work come out unhindered in the moment. Very appreciative. Looking forward to more material here.
