Mindset: Hypnotherapy & Sleep

The idea & concept of this app is actually really good, but only for those who can go into a trance. Not everyone can. It’s a shame you HAVE to sign up to a subscription from the get go even if you do get a weeks free trial. This is clearly a business decision in the hope people will forget to cancel their subscription. Which I think is morally wrong as this can put people off, people who could really benefit from this app and may be needing help the most. Anyway! Really good app if you can go into a trance. Still a good app if you are open to this sort of thing & just need some ‘me time’

I think this is brilliant and I’ve noticed some real profound changes, highly recommend people at the very least give it a go. I’ve struggled with anxiety, social and general, and low self-esteem. I only started getting into personal development a few years ago including going to a therapist. All the meantime using Headspace, which is fantastic in its own merit and something I use evwryday. I have to note that I find Mindset is hugely complementary, not a replacement. The approaches are very different and work together fantastically. Hypnosis is a new thing and initially was introduced to me in therapy (giving it a massive amount of credibility to me) and this app follows the excat same approach taught to me in session. The topics this app covers is very broad, and I'm scheduled to aspect of the subjects are really delved into leaving you feel you have made progress addressing this issue. Like everything that needs improving, it takes time and effort, the layout recognises this and encourages you to revisit the sessions and develop the practice. A must in anyone's smart phone.

Hi, sorry for the negative review without using the app but I have to say products that try to auto sign me up with and opt out not to pay make me feel like you don’t value the content and are simply hoping I forget to cancel the trial. Headspace has 10 ‘basics of mediation’ sessions you can access for free without entering payment details etc (I know that’s mediation and this is not but I feel it’s a similar/competitor app) I did these free sessions then immediately signed up as I valued the content. They also allow me to pay a monthly cost so if I change my mind I haven’t paid a huge upfront cost. I get you need to make money but I and I’m sure many others are going to get turned of by this approach before we even try it. I’d love to hear from you if this changes as I would really like to see how the service works and if I can help me!

First let me say that I have no experience of hypnosis and that that is a major issue I have with this app. There is simply too little information about what hypnosis is and what it should feel like. That is why I simply cannot say if this app is working for me. When I listen to the recordings I certainly feel relaxed, but I remain fully conscious throughout. I do not drift to sleep or even into a sort of half asleep half awake kind of state. Because of that I am sceptical that the recording is really accessing my subconscious. I am still in my trial period and am still debating whether I will actually pay for something I am this unsure about. On the positive side the recordings are well thought out, if a little repetitive, and I like the voice.

I didn’t truly appreciate the power of hypnosis until this app came along. It’s laid out in a really great way to help you go straight to the session you’ll benefit from at any particular time. My favourite go to session is called “Do it now”. It really does make me feel like I can take on anything I need to get motivated to do. The focus session is crazy good at getting you laser focussed. Sounds too good to be true but it really is that good. I may just be particularly susceptible to hypnosis, but I’d recommend anyone give it a go.
