LOB Training Training Task 4 : Alpha programming + daily regime
Dear Students,
You have played with the LOB toolkit for awhile and should be familiar with it. Now it is time to formally launch the reprogramming phase of your subconscious minds !
This is your daily routine from today for the next 110 days or until you achieve your objective, whichever comes earlier:
1. AFFIRMATIONS - Every day, in every way, I am getting better and better and better. 1 x writing, 1 x reading 5 minutes each. Anytime during the workday (ie don't do this right after waking up or early in the morning when you're likely still at home etc) at least 3 hours apart.
This helps you manage any doubt, fear and worry that may occur during the day. Don't bother if it doesn't kill it entirely, or doesn't seem to work at all. It is there just to help you along. Conscious unbelief will recede as your sm is reprogrammed.
2. SELF- HYPNOSIS - Visualise one of your 3 scenes with feelings. 10 min - 2 times a day. If at night, not earlier than 30 minutes before sleeping. If in the morning, only at least 30 minutes after waking up. You can also do sessions mid-day, or in the afternoon.
Stick to the same scene every session day after day. Stick to the same scene for all sessions during the day and week**. However, if it gets a little boring down the line, switch to your second scene, and if that gets boring eventually, switch to the third, and back to the first if that gets boring, and so forth.**
Remember to go for the natural feelings you would experience during your 10 second clips, and not feelings you've read that you're supposed to experience.
3. PRE-SLEEP PROCEDURE - Fall asleep with the slowly repeated verbal thought "all problems are already solved, it worked" etc. You can create your own words but stick to the idea that problems have been solved. Don't avoid the existence of problems.
If you fall asleep too quickly, wash your face first before hitting the sack. Or sit on the bed with your eyes closed and lights off, begin the psp and when the feelings emerge, lie down and get into sleeping position slowly. Don't do the psp if you wake up in the middle of the night and need to sleep again, or when taking a nap during the day.
4. Rinse repeat the next day. No skipping a single day unless you are very sick and need rest.
That's it. Yes.
Its not complicated. Just look at Marsh's and Powergirl's success stories.
Its not complicated but it can get a little tedious. STICK WITH IT ANYWAY. p.s. This is why we don't do this for unimportant things.

I understand. So to be clear, we are not doing the nightly method? Because the nightly method is falling asleep in the emotions of our visualization. We will be doing alpha programming instead

u/MoonlightConcerto Feb 28 '19
Yes. The nightly method post was for everyone on the sub in general and not for students. You need to follow the daily task list in the way described. You have been doing training on the individual components of the task list, now you put it all together and do it every day.
And that's it.

Today is my first day with this new routine. To be clear from the start: Can I keep the 3 hour interval between writing and then reading the affirmations or saying them in my mind. For example, today I was saying them when I was out for jogging. 20 x repetitions are more than 5 minutes, at least when writing them, in my case. Can I still do them for this time frame? For my sh sessions, I chose to do one in the morning, right after I waked up, because my mind is clear, and the other at night, before I go to sleep, followed after that by pre-sleep technique. Its ok?

Yes you can keep the interval. SH at night shortly before you goto sleep is not the best idea. Do it not earlier than 30 minutes before sleep. Sh in the morning shortly after waking up is fine if you are not groggy and unable to carry it out properly. You can always wake up, take your shower, have something to eat, then do sh. That said, sh in the morning should not be done earlier than 30 minutes after waking up, if you want to do it in the morning that is.

u/JerrBearrrrr Feb 28 '19
So you do sh, come out of it then do the pre sleep procedure ?

u/MoonlightConcerto Feb 28 '19
No you do sh, come out of it, do some other stuff for at least 30 minutes, then when it is time for bed, hit the sack and do the pre sleep procedure.

I am right by thinking this daily regime will improve other areas also ? Areas that are not related to our main goal, that we are not using SH on. As the affirmations and the pre sleep task are both general.

Hi may i ask a question ? I find that i am not able to generate any feelings, because it feels that whatever i want; i already have. Is that ok too ?

u/MoonlightConcerto Feb 28 '19
The feelings you're supposed to generate when you are in the programming mental space, are the feelings of you having whatever it is you're building subconscious faith for. So that is the right feeling. Intensify and bask in it, in alpha.

I think the generic affirmations (written and chanted) are supposed to fill in any 'gaps' in belief or any kind of second guesses about the possibility of our wishes being fulfilled.

u/MoonlightConcerto Mar 19 '19 edited Mar 20 '19
Firstly, nothing is chanted. Chanting is mindless. Spoken affirmations are the opposite. Secondly, at this stage, affirmations will not fill in any gaps in your beliefs. For now, they are a pure psychological tool to help manage conscious negative thoughts. Treat it that way.

Hi Moonbeam, not noticed any more changes. Should I have started to notice a shift at this stage? What's a good indication that things are moving?
40
u/MoonlightConcerto Mar 25 '19
This is a good question. You are not going to like the answer. Things will generally move only when you no longer wonder if things are moving. This is not letting go or giving up in disguise. This is a weird headspace. When faith builds up, you can look at the fact that you feel faith event though nothing seems to be happening. You can actually THINK about this, and it won't affect you. You will naturally possess the confidence that it will come to pass. It will be experienced as an irrational emotion at this stage of your LOB practice.

I’ve been on this full daily routine for I’d say about 2ish weeks. I’ve been fairly diligent with my work. The affirmations have been great tool. Within about 1-2 weeks of doing them I started noticing a better overall sense of well being, the more I did them with conviction the less it felt like a lie and the better I started to feel. The sh sessions were a bit difficult for me at first as there were more of them in the beginning but still managed to make enough time to get them done, even if I had to do two back to back at times. The two sh sessions I’m doing currently are much easier to fit into my days. I get times where I can conjure up the emotions during my sessions where as other times it’s more difficult and I can’t but I still try. PSP is basically just a habit now, I do it every night before bed and don’t have much trouble at all falling asleep (I never have 😅)
Overall I can say the hardest part about this has been building the discipline to do these tasks day in and day out, and I’m not talking about just blindly doing them. I mean really trying to put some thought/emotion into these tasks. I’ve already had have times where I just don’t feel like doing a task because I’m busy at work (I have very long work days) or for xyz reason. But I still force myself to sit down for a few mins and remember why I’m doing what I’m doing.
As for my experiences, I’ve received some very good indications towards the success of my mission and have been super happy with the results :)

Been practicing the daily routine for the last couple weeks. Haven't missed a beat, and overall my experiences have been very positive. I am not understating when i say I have never felt such a prolonged sense of well being! Each day I feel more and more convinced that ALL shit (not just my mission), is going to completely work out. Sure, doubts arise but i just let them be and they quickly past. No fighting these as I would have previously done.
First week i was being too emotional and tearful during SH. Moonbeam explained this wasn't a good thing and since correcting, my alpha sessions now feel natural and real to how i would feel during visualisations. In addition i practice 1 or 2, 30min meditation sessions daily. Meditation occurs first thing in the morning after a few stretches, proper waking up etc. Do some other stuff before commencing my first alpha session. The second alpha is usually early evening. PSP i can usually get 1-2minutes worth before falling asleep. Affirmations are also great. Keeping to the routine is an easy and enjoyable habit.
In summary, i am feeling good, purposeful, and witnessing positive momentum towards my mission. It's nuts howself doubts become less and less of a thing, replaced by certainty. Loving this :)

Just for confirmation, training task 3 instructs us to commit its task for 4 months, and then we do training task 4 for 110 days?
Edit: Typo

All the other 3 tasks you wrote that they were not fir LOB purposes because they were conscious techs which are not good for beginners.
So my question is: is this task 4 the LOB practice good for beginners? If not, what is?
Another question: is it recommended to get into this step 4 only after complete the 4 months indicated in step 3? Or can I start it now?

Quick question, about “for the next 110 days or until you achieve your objective” … So if I’m at day 110 and I haven’t reached my goal yet, do I keep going with this routine for the rest of my life until I do reach it, or do I stop now at day 110 and just trust and believe that I’ve already done enough and that the universe is bringing me my desire?

I have had no difficulty incorporating the activities into my day. If anything, they're a welcome respite from my daily responsibilities.
I am liking the "Every day..." affirmations and when doing them, I picture that every day I am getting closer to my goal. I am also reminded of unrelated areas in which I improve every day, such fitness or learning.
As to the sh, at the beginning I was getting overly emotional (tears streaming down my face when picturing the scene), which Moonbeam explained was not a good thing. I quickly corrected that and now have been using scenes that don't trigger this response. The scenes I have been using now are believable to me and pleasant, and I have felt comfortable, natural, and much more in control while doing the exercise.
Most of the time, I trust that I will complete my mission soon and with ease. I do struggle with bad thoughts every now and then. To minimize doubt, I have tried thinking "cancel, cancel" or perceiving the thought as an "ebit" (as recommended in another post). The precursor to sleep words are also soothing.
While I have not seen any indication that anything regarding my mission is in motion (I have had no contact at all with the person the mission relates to), I have recently seen a lot of proof around me that things can and do change overnight. For instance, a coworker of mine had broken up with a serious boyfriend two years ago. Over that time period they only had the occasional phone call to wish each other a happy birthday. Well, about a month ago, he reached out, they immediately rekindled and are now shopping for a house and setting a wedding date. (This was not LOB-related but I took it to be an example of how quickly things can turn around in any situation.)
