The Hemi-Sync Gateway Experience program is perhaps one of the most powerful, extensive and stimulating packages in this field of meditation CDs and binaural beats. The Hemi-Sync program builds from one CD to the next, with new information and techniques on each. In the initial set (Wave I), you are taught how to reach a meditative state. Then on the following CDs, you are asked to repeat the steps yourself to reach a meditative state, but there is no repeating of those steps on every CD, so it moves right along with fresh information on each new CD.
Many tools are provided for those seeking peace and transcendental improvement. Although the material explicitly states that there is no hyposis involved, you ARE placed into a very calm receptive state and suggestions are made as to improving one's life, and positive affirmations are offered forth. I'd call that hypnosis to a degree, but it is never overbearing, and all the suggestions are beneficial and positive. Although it retails for $500, it is available for far less, and at those levels, it is a definate buy for a seeker's toolbox.
