Subliminal messages ! Good or bad?  |
| |
| Do you think that advertisers are using subliminal messages in their advertisements? Do you think that maybe that is another reason to add to the lists of why Americans are overweight and spend more money? Do You believe that subliminal messages works, that it can alter or help your way of thinking subconsiously? That is can help you lose weight,have more self esteem,quit smoking,have a better nights sleep? Ever wonder how subliminal suggestion work? Here is an Example: Remember the "Eat Popcorn" subliminal suggestions that was displayed during the movies in the 50s? It made everyone head for the popcorn stands and the theatres could not make enough popcorn to meet the demands most times. Subliminal messages are messages recorded at a lower volume level so low that it is to inconspicuous to the normal ear. Many believe the subconscious brain can hear and recognize these messages, and takes action on them. For example, "If you wanted to have better self- esteem the subliminal messages would be , "I like myself, unconditionally. Many studies say that it is the subconsious mind controlls actions in the consious mind and that subliminal suggestion cannot make you do something against your will that you don't want, that the subliminal messages will only help you do what you already want to do, you just have to be willing to follow the suggestion that your subconsious sends to your brain. Well, to test all these theories out I went and bought a subliminal cd for weight loss, cause I figure every little bit helps. I know I won't lose any weight if I keep eating like there is no tomorrow, and continue sitting in front of the television, without any more exercise than pushing the remote buttons or surfing the net, sititng in front of my computer .That I must take active part in losing the weight. Even with the subliminal messages I will have to exercise or atleast walk to lose weight. It won't be easy but I was hoping the subliminal weight loss cd would help give my brain a much needed boost.They are many types of subliminal messages CDs out and about to ,quit smoking,relaxing,having better self-esteem,weight loss, Do you believe in the power of subliminal suggestion? Would you do it? If so why? If not why? | | | | | |

| | Very bad. There are info about these form years '50 where in USA and in URSS tried to see the effects of this. There are not info about URSS experiments and very few about USA. About subliminal messages there is a book published 1957 by prof. Vance Packard (The Hidden Persuaders) that I recommend you because it is still a "must"! Read this and you'll see that the situation in '50 is not so changed now in third millenium! | | | | | | |

| | It's hard to say. If you believe, then even if subliminal messages do not work, your will power is helping. If you don't believe, of course subliminal messages will not work since you are actively resisting it. See the dilemma here? One will never know. | | | | | | |

| | this is a great topic, subliminals are used all over, grocery stores have been accused of using it. You see they can be visual or audio, the are programmed just below our conscious level, so the waking brain, they one we are using, every are not aware of them, but the mind will register anyway. It works the studies prove it. Would I use a subliminal to lose weight? Why would I not want to use a regular tape to use weight, if the message is the same? I guess on defense of subliminals, the tape could be the sound of the ocean for example that I am actually listening too, and the subliminal is buried within it. It is a bad idea actually. | | | | | | |

| | Thanks, I searched it before I posted it to make sure I wasn't going to step on anyone's toes and found they wasn't any discussions about it. I had just won my ebay bid for the subliminal weight loss CD and wondered what other people thought about subliminal messages. That is probably why I end up with tons of junk food and other food I really wasn't going ot buy..lol. Yep, it is the sound of the ocean I love hearing the ocean or the rain forest. So it is a bad Idea? I had thought maybe that it would help keep me focused and maybe motivated a little more because every little help is going to be needed. I think they should come out with a kids line of subliminal messages about being good and sharing and you know help with their manners and also learning ones to help with school. And maybe the should be added to cartoons and things kids watch. It would help them alot especiallt those struggling behind. If it can work in a store I can it can work for a school.

| | I heard it a bit differently to you. The timing is about right but it wasn't done by sound it was done with a picture on TV. Back then film was used and it took many shots to get a picture. The subliminal ad was a single shot displayed so the eye couldn't see it but the subconscious could. There were several shots in the sequence played over a period of time. Apparently it was an actor displaying thirst and the message was "Drink Coke". This kind of advertising was banned and is still illegal as far as I know. What a great idea to use it to get a truly positive message across. The only tapes and CDS I've heard about for quit smoking/nail biting, lose weight, etc are self hypnosis ones, where you can have it playing and even if you don't consciously listen, you still hear it. Many years ago this was how people reputedly learned another language or studied...they plugged in earphones while they went to sleep and the tapes played while they were asleep. I tried that to quit smoking...didn't work. | | | | | | |

| | You're most welcome:) I'm needing to loose a fair amount of weight myself but my appetite is still huge and execise is uncomfortable/painful. I know I have to eat less and exercise more but..... I'll be interested to hear how you're going and if you're seeing any results. It's all in the mind I believe. I don't see myself as being as big as I am. It's a shock to see a photo of myself looking like a beached whale. | | | |

| | I know what you mean, my brother in law calls me a beached whale. I am starting with walking first I can't really do the exercises yet either or I'd probably have a heart attack. yeppers is is a shock I guess that is why I don't look to closely in a full sized mirror although they are three of htem in my home. It's a out of site out of mind kinda thing and then one day you really look or as you say see a pic and your floored. Thats when I hit bottom took me awhile to get back up but I am trying to stay up and motivated.. I think I might be sucessfull if I stay away from certain people. I have lost 10 pounds already that I know of not alot but it is a start. most times on the first week of a diet I will loose anywhere from 15-22 pounds. I hope that when you are ready you can jump on te band wagon with me and maybe we can do this together. Wouldn't that be fun a mylot contest for weight loss.. just a thought. | | | |

| | Well, that kinda wouldn't work for me matey. My weight has just kept going up. I might loose a fraction one day and it's back the next, I'm talking 1 - 2 lbs. If I loose over 4 lbs, it means I'm about to gain another 10. I don't know why my body is doing this. It's getting more and more out of control the harder I try. I know the idea is to get it off in such a way that you continue doing those things for life. You can't "go on a diet, loose the weight, then stop the diet". It has to be a lifestyle change of healthy eating and enough exercise...forever and always. | | | |

| | I have fluid retention sometimes and that causes me to gain some weight in less then a day sometimes. I know that this will have to be a lifetime change otherwise It will be a lost cause. I wish things were different for you. That you could lose the weight. Losing weight is the hardest thing I have ever done. But it is the easiest to gain back like that*SNAP* I know I have struggled with it weight since I was 7 years old and it's been a battle since. Sometimes I win the battle, but most times I lose. I am hoping that this time the battle will end with me being the victor. Then I will have to stay on maintence for the rest of my life. ~becca--(-<@ | | | |

| | I don't think subliminal messages work at all. I don't even think direct messages work. I'm not attached to any one brand of anything. I don't think I ever bought the same toothpaste or soap two times in a row in my life. I never have a clue as to what kind of car I'm going to buy before I go car shopping. I don't care if my pants or shirts come from Wal-Mart, K-Mart or JC Penney. I have no favorite brand of beer. If it says "Lite", it's fine with me. Lloyd | | | | | | |

| | Thanks lloydanthony for sharing your opinion I appreciate it. The only thing I buy the same brand each month is my toilet paper,laundry soaps and dish liquid soap. If they have it. but I don't think that is due to subliminal messages that has to do more to my preferences. My parents have always told me I am gulliable enough to believe anything, so maybe if I believe it enough It might work. Well, cheers~becca | | | |

| | I say no to everything you just said. One, subliminal messages have never worked with me. Two, it is fact that before the invention of the buffet, only 10 percent of americans were over weight. Since then, it is now like 40 percent, maybe more. I honestly think it has to do with how people raise their children as well... who knows, eh??? | | | | | | |
