Shop FAQ

In this page I will be going over some information about the shop explaining the ethics and morals I follow when making these files in hopes of being transparent enough to give a sense of trust and safety about my work and files.

If you are new to hypnosis I recommend reading the What is Hypnosis? page to become familiar with the hypnosis terminology used within this page. Most terminology has a link that goes to it’s dedicated section on the page if you need a refresher on what anything means.

Custom Files

FAQ

What do I get when I purchase an “induction”, “body”, or a “full file”? / Why are some files duplicated but have a $5 price difference?

  • Inductions only comes with the induction and are intended to be appended before a body within a playlist using your preferred media player.
  • Bodies typically come with 2 downloadable files.
    • The first file is the body with the induction removed. This will still have the awakener that was used and included in the full version of the file (the next file type in this list).
      • You can use this file to to add any induction you want to the beginning of the body within a playlist, using your media player of choice, just in case you don’t like the induction I included with the full file.
    • The second file is is the body with the induction and awakener removed.
      • You can add this file into a string of files within a playlist, using your media player of choice, to give yourself a longer listening session without dealing with waking up and going back down with the inductions and awakeners. You can also use this file as a type of subliminal file where you turn it on low volume and leave it on loop in the background or even while asleep.
        • Note: The bodies of files were not created with the idea of loopability in mind. The loop may be very abrupt and could take you out of trance.
  • Full files typically includes 3 downloadable files.
    • The first will be the full file which includes the induction I recommend you use with it. The induction will already be a part of the full file so there is no need to append anything in front of it.
    • The other 2 file types are the 2 versions of the bodies (as described above).
      • Sometime I will offer more than 1 full file with a purchase. Each file will use a different induction. This won’t increase the price of the file. The structure of the “length” section in the product description will be slightly different for files that have more than 1 full file available for download. Typically formatted as:
        • Full File: xx mins (Induction Name) – xx mins (2nd Induction name)

How many times can I download a file once I purchase it?

As many times as you want. As long as you maintain access to your account, you don’t close the account or get banned, the site stays live, and the file stays on the server.

When is my file available to download?

To protect against fraud and chargebacks your file will be available to download as soon as your payment has fully processed. This means you won’t see a download link if your payment status is still “pending” or “processing”.

What file types are offered upon download?

For the highest compatibility with the most devices and to save on bandwidth and server space we use .mp3 audio files encoded in 320 kbps.

Do you host previews of files on a product page?

Yes! We offer previews that average about 30 secs for files. It is close to the bottom of the file description.

Note: Full files only offer a preview of the body of the file and not a preview of the induction. To hear a preview of the induction pleases go to the product page for that induction.

Can I make a purchase as a guest (checkout without an account)?

No. To make sure you maintain access to file you purchase we require you make an account on the website before or during checkout. You can always login with Google, Patreon, and WordPress.com. This is also for securing the site, files, and the shop.

Do I need to make an account to “purchase” a free file? – Why is it making me create an account to “purchase” a free file.

For the same reasons listen above.

This is also for securing the site, files, and the shop.

Why do I need to enter my billing information for a free file?

This is a limitation of WooCommerce and can not be turned off. Even if a file or item is free it still needs billing information for the checkout process. Site admins and moderators cannot see this information and it is stored securely on the server.

If we could turn it off for free items we would. Read our privacy policy if you are concerned about what we do with your information.  Spoiler: We don’t sell it to any other company. (This website doesn’t have any advertisements anyways. Purely crowd funded).

What is the structure of a product’s description?

The structure is as follows:

  • Description of the files
    • Usually in 1 or more paragraphs
  • File type (induction, body, full)
  • Induction(s) used (if the product is a full file)
  • Length of the file in minutes (rounded up/down)
    • Sometimes there will be more than one, like the length of body/full file being separate.
  • Notes about the file
  • Preview of the file
  • Triggers included within the file.
    • Often in a collapsible menu that is close by default to prevent accidental triggering.

Lucid’s Ethics & Morals

I would like to start this section by saying that at the time of writing this I have 7+ years of experience with hypnosis from both sides. I am self taught and I’m not licensed or professionally trained. I do Hypnosis for entertainment and erotic purposes only. I have personally had my fair share of bad hypnotists and subjects. I myself have been a victim and I know what it’s like to be at the hand of a bad hypnotist and bad files. That is why I have given myself some standards I should follow; especially when making files which can be easier to listen back as many times as the subject wants to make it as strong as they want.

I like to follow these strict ethics and morals when performing and practicing hypnosis in any capacity, this includes creating, recording, uploading, selling these files, and doing personalized sessions for money/commission. It’s best for me to explain what I would never do to a subject or include in the files I make and sell with my hypnosis knowledge. I will go over all of those in the next few paragraphs to give potential listeners a sense of trust, transparency, and security when purchasing and listening to my files as well as considering me for paid personalised hypnosis session for.

Let’s just dive right into the nastiest bits of hypnosis that I will never touch. The first and most important one, in my opinion, is permanence. I will never make any file that instills any hard permanent effect within the listener. That’s not to say that some files won’t be open to that interpretation by the listener, but I will never use the word “permanent” within a file. Ever.

On the topic of permanence I will also never make a curse file. What is a a curse file? A curse file typically meets all of these criteria: attempts to make a lot of effects and suggestions permanent, makes the subject/listener want to listen to the file often even if all suggestions and effect have already taken hold, and will try to make it so the creator of the file is the only one that can remove the effects of the file. The worst part about that is they would offer the curse file for free and then charge for the removal file or worse yet, not offer any removal file at all.

Still in line with curses and permanence I will never make any type of slave file. A salve file can be anything that has these effects:

  • Making a file so addictive that you’ll be inclined to go back to it (slave to the file).
  • Trying to make the listener complete a series of files from a hypnotist (slave to a file/series)
  • Make the listener addicted to the hypnotist’s voice (slave to the hypnotist).
  • Making the listener want to listen to more file from that hypnotist (more slave to the hypnotist).
  • Making the listener only want to listen to that one hypnotist and often includes making all other hypnosis from any other hypnotist null and void and will no longer work on them (yet more slave to the hypnotist).
  • Make you perceive the hypnotist as your master, or worse, or your god (still more slave to the hypnotist – an obey me file).
  • Trying to make the listener go out of their comfort zone and attempt files they might not have otherwise considered (overall bad ethics and not respecting boundaries)
  • Anything else within this realm.

A lot of this stuff is often included in curse files, but I felt it deserved it’s own section since people have made dedicated slave files that weren’t a curse file.

Other notable bad ethics practices I won’t include in my files:

  • My files will never include recruitment where a subject will feel the need to make others listen to me, my files, or any specific file I make. This is often described as a hivemind.
    • Some drone groups use this technique too.
  • My files will never alter your memories in any significant way and if they do it will always be on a temporary basis.
  • If I release any files as a series they will never encourage you to listen to the other files in that series.
    • However, later parts of the series will assume you listened to the previous parts and will reference those parts and try to reinforce them.

All my files will always have a full description of every intended effect, trigger, etc. I will never hide any effects or suggestions from anyone or have any surprise effects or suggestions in my files.

I favor the use of triggers in my files. I feel this is the best way to get the most mileage from files and sessions. Triggers give the freedom and control of experiencing the effects of a file any time you want to.


Custom Hypno Files

At this moment I am not taking commissions for custom hypnosis files until I am finished with school and open all my commissions again. Join the communities, follow the Telegram update channel, watch the Trello board, or watch this website for new blog posts. All of these are my official means of giving the community and fans updates on everything like commission status, new uploads, and anything else that I deem to be important.
