[0] Palace of the Occult - Relaxation File Vanilla

Here is the beginning of a new project. This file is exclusive to relax your body and mind. Nothing more. I'm releasing it as public for the reason that it will be useful to everyone regardless of whether they listen to ToL or will be using the new project. It is also not associated with any HFO or anything similar. It is literally my own way of personally relaxing.

I anticipate questions, so here's a brief FAQ below:

1. can I use another file? 

Of course! This file is just a suggestion and everything in it is a suggestion. Ultimately, you are the one who creates your memory palace. However, I encourage you to listen to this file every day until bedtime for a while. After that, there will be others, geared towards specific things (a secret for now...).

2. do I have to do exactly what the voices in the file ask me to do?

No, these are also suggestions. If, for example, the voice tells you to breathe and count to 4, you can not count at all, you can count to 6, you can count by integration.... It doesn't matter. The real meaning is that your breathing will become deeper and shallower.

3. In the file I'm listening to, the voice has already moved on to the next steps, and I haven't made it yet! What now?

Take it easy, if you haven't managed, for example, to calm your breathing or relax your body, it means that you haven't done it before and are not skilled. Let yourself be carried away by the fantasy and don't worry that it's not perfect. You'll do better next time, trust me - I too started with hours of relaxation before I learned to calm my breath, heart, body and mind in 5 minutes. It's a skill like any other (really!).

4. Is it hypnosis?

No, in hypnosis the voice or hypnotist puts you in a state where you will follow their instructions. In my files you can only tell the elements of hypnosis but nowhere do I “force” you to do anything. He wants everything to come out of your consciousness. 

5. Does it work at all?

Strange question but I will answer - yes, it works as long as you believe it works. If you don't believe me, then read the scientific literature on relaxation, memory palaces or autosuggestion. Some may have doubts about the validity of binaural beats, but more and more studies are confirming the therapeutic effect, and suggestions are beginning to appear as if it is possible to put our minds in the right “moods” with the sounds themselves (which I don't think my listeners are at all surprised by at this stage :D ...). 

6. it doesn't work on me ....

Sadly, there is a group of people in this world (defined as 2-5%) who have no imagination. Literally, they can't imagine anything in their mind - not images, smells, sounds. This is called aphantasia. 

If you have never exercised your imagination in the realm of “images” I recommend you start with the simplest things that exist - simple shapes, numbers, notes. If you have ever remembered your dream and know that you “saw” it, then you 100% don't have aphantasia just a poorly trained ability to project live images in your mind. Practicing techniques like Memory Palace helps develop such skills.

7. And this is supposed to be the new design?

Yes, it's a start. Everything needs a beginning. Rest assured, there will be succubi and other fairy tale creatures again and WHATEVER you desire.... ToL thesis also started as a simple HFO, without any special enhancements. Let me cook :D .

8. When is the rest of the project? 

Excellent question! I already have 2 more files ready, I'm still lightly polishing them. They should appear in the next 2-3 days.

9. Are you abandoning ToL?

Never, ever. ToL gives me great joy, it's where it all started. The new project is to do something extra and show the world my true art. It will also require more time, and assumes a certain sophistication of the listener. It will definitely not be for everyone.

10. You can barely make out the old stuff, and you are adding a WHOLE NEW PROJECT?

Yup. For your curiosity, I can add that I am studying a certain branch of engineering, I am deeply interested in the occult, and I travel the world and go to work. I live my life in such a way that when I go to bed I fall asleep in 5 seconds completely exhausted. I'd rather do something at 80% strive for perfection than let the desire to do something at 100% completely paralyze me. 

Bonus question: WHERE ARE DEMONIC VOICES???

They will be in later files, I had to make something as vanila as possible, trust me.

That's it for now! I'll also add a schedule for January in a few days.
