Cautions

1. No driving or operating machinery while listening - NOT EVEN A LITTLE BIT. THIS IS NO JOKE.   Head-Cleaners hypnosis tapes and hypnosis CDs are not to be listened to while driving, bike riding, walking, operating machinery or doing anything you need to be able to pay attention to. By attempting to listen to these recordings while operating machinery, you will either train your mind to be unaffected by them or you will experience an accident of possibly huge proportions. Do not goof around with these recordings. They are serious, real hypnosis recordings intended for serious, real impact on the listener's mind.

2. Do not use as a half-way substitute for other, more appropriate medical treatment.   Head-Cleaners hypnosis tapes and hypnosis CDs are not meant to be a substitute for psychotherapy or medical treatment. If you need to see a therapist or physician, see one.

3. Do not use as a means to forget, ignore, distract from or otherwise avoid facing a need for important and necessary medical treatment - do not use to "delete" pain or anxiety messages your body and mind are sending you.   Pain and anxiety are information processes which listening to these tapes or CDs may alter and/or diminish. If you are experiencing pain (headache, back, anything) or anxiety, or are being bothered by other physical symptoms that should be checked out by a physician, DO NOT USE HEAD-CLEANERS HYPNOSIS RECORDINGS until you have fully completed whatever medical tests and procedures appropriate and/or until you are confident that calming anxiety or eliminating pain will not cause you to ignore some aspect of your life that you should be dealing with. If you are trying to ignore or stop a pain or anxiousness about something you should really be doing something about, consider the possibility that it may be wise to exhaust your options for dealing with your problems directly before working on reducing pain symptoms or anxiety.

4. If you are in therapy, check with your therapist before adding using these recordings.   Anyone considering psychotherapy or currently under a therapist's care should consult with their therapist before using these recordings. (Anyone can contact drj@head-cleaners.com for a copy of the transcript of any recordings under consideration.)

5. Note that hypnosis has in some cases been suspected of invalidating court (eye-witness, etc.) testmony.   Because courts have held that hypnosis may invalidate testimony, if you think that you might need to testify about something in court in the immediate future, do not use head-cleaners or other hypnosis recordings until you check with the attorney you are testifying for or until your testimony is completed.

6. Expect the possibility of brief, odd, weird feelings or emotional responses.   For those new to the experience of hypnosis, the process of relaxing unusually quickly (and probably slightly more completely than in past experience) might result in experiencing a moment or so of profound emotions, alterations of senses, or a sense of deep relaxation that might take a few moments to arouse your self from. Reactions are as individual as fingerprints. Just expect anything ranging from nothing to the unusual, and enjoy paying whatever attention you feel comfortable with.
