One of the topics that is rarely discussed regarding subliminal, supraliminal or paraliminal recordings is the dark side, and that creating one can potentially affect a listener in a negative way.

By negative, it is meant that the recording will not help them and perhaps make the target problem or issue become even worse.

This may happen accidentally even with the best purposes in mind, and regrettably, by someone intentionally with the correct knowledge.

Ideally, the goal of a subliminal or other similar type of self-help audio recordings is to help the listener in overcoming a specific target problem.

If this is done properly, then the messages will be positive, delivered in the best way and trigger the subconscious change desired. But the messages may not be designed in the best way and can have a negative effect.

This can be done by accident in writing message scripts improperly or even by design by people with ulterior motives.

Designing Subliminal Messages the Wrong Way

Each of the message statements designed should address the target issue in a positive manner. If the guidelines for doing this are followed as presented in other articles, this should be relatively easy to do.

It is strongly suggested that these design strategies be fully understood before writing any message script. Avoiding the use of negative words, conditional terms and phrases is important, but it is possible that mistakes can be made. The result would be that the messages delivered are less than desirable and may not have the effect intended.

For this reason it is essential to review both the message script and the audio segment created before mixing the final recording. However, even with a small number of mistakes in the message script, the worst that will usually occur is that the final recording will not be as effective in resolving the target issue.

In order to design a recording that has a negative effect, it must be done intentionally and with full knowledge of all the principles related to creating subliminal or other types of recordings.

What is a Negative Subliminal Recording?

If created intentionally, a negative recording is no different from a positive one except for the target goal. For example, instead of the topic being losing weight, this could easily be reversed so that the goal was to gain weight.

But what is considered to be negative by one person may be positive to another person. There are many people that have difficulty gaining weight and a recording targeting this issue would not be negative for them.

A true negative recording is one that the listener believes is designed to target their chosen issue, but in reality does exactly the reverse. Again, using weight loss as an example, if the listener seeks to lose weight, but the recording is designed to promote weight gain, then this qualifies as being a negative subliminal recording.

Listening to Negative Subliminal Audio Recordings by Mistake

Obviously, no one would likely choose to acquire and listen to a recording that renders their situation worse. But this is still possible if the following conditions are met:

• The recording is promoted as being able to address the issue
• The recording is purposely created to have the opposite effect
• The listener believes that the recording will help them
• The listener acquires and listens to the recording repeatedly

If these conditions were met, then the listener would likely experience the negative consequences of the recording. Fortunately, this is extremely unlikely to happen when purchasing subliminal or other types of recordings from a reliable source.

Even if it did, it is highly probable that the creator of the recordings would sooner or later be found out and their unethical behaviors possibly lead to even criminal charges.

But there is another dark issue regarding creating negative recordings that must be addressed. This relates to someone who has the intention to psychologically control and negatively affect a particular person or perhaps a group of people.

If someone had the knowledge about how to create subliminal recordings, it is possible that they could create negative versions.

Since it is unlikely that they could market these without being discovered, their only alternative would be to provide them to people that they know, but may dislike. However unethical and distasteful this may sound, it is possible.

Since it is possible, it is important that as a recording creator and a potential marketer of recordings that you understand how this could be done. By understanding how it can be done, you will have the knowledge to identify, avoid them and suggest to others that they are not helpful.

How to Create a Negative Subliminal Audio Recording

This information is provided so that you are able to understand how some individuals with the knowledge of creating subliminal recordings can use it to negatively affect other people.

Using it for the intention of damaging other people in any manner is unethical and likely illegal.

As explained previously, the only difference between a positive and a negative subliminal, supraliminal or paraliminal recording is the nature of the messages and how they are designed and written.

Ironically, the best way to design a recording that implants negative messages is to do it in a positive manner. The message statements should be designed so that they promote what you would not prefer.

In other words, the message statements should be designed so that they suggest that the result is desirable. The subconscious mind does not understand between what is good or bad and will embrace any suggestions if they are presented properly.

Referring to the topic of weight loss, if the recording was intentionally designed to suggest weight gain, then some sample message statements would be as follows:

• I allow myself to gain weight
• I enjoy eating food at any time
• I prefer to relax and comfort my body
• I accept myself at being at a greater weight

These statements are obviously targeting the negative aspect of weight loss, but it is still necessary to convince the potential listener that the recording has the effect of promoting weight loss.

It is required that the potential listener feel that the recording can do what is promised. This can be done by engaging their trust so that they seem certain that the recording will affect them in a positive fashion.

To summarize, the possibility of negative recordings exists, no matter how disliked this idea may be. They may be created with or without intention but it is important that you understand how this can be done.

Having an understanding of how this is possible will enable you to identify them and perhaps warn others of the dangers. If you discover such recordings, it is advisable that you report them.

You should never attempt to create a negative recording because the results may only inflict more harm to yourself than the person you intended it for.

When designing a subliminal message script it is important to consider including sub-theme messages related to the topic chosen.

A sub-theme is any underlying issue that may be indirectly contributing to the problem because of existing subconscious blocks.

Even though it is preferable to design and create your message script statements in the best way possible, you cannot always be certain that you are entirely targeting the root of the problem.

Secondary issues pertaining to self-image, allowing change and loving oneself may be embedded in the subconscious mind of the potential listener.

Addressing Secondary Issues in a Message Script

For example, a person seeking to become fit and lose weight may possibly have one or more deeper subconscious blocks that prevent them from achieving their goal.

A negative experience from early childhood such as having been repeatedly told that they will always be overweight may be even carried with them into adulthood.

They may feel subconsciously that they will always be unattractive, never be able to change, no one will ever love them and have low self-esteem.

They could try many possible methods to overcome this, but each may be met with resistance by the subconscious mind unless the underlying issues or sub-themes are also addressed.

There is no certain method of determining the subconscious issues or sub-themes someone else may have, and the best strategy is to include the most important sub-issues appropriately.

These include message statements that pertain to love and forgiveness, embracing change and positive self-image.

Message Statements for Love and Forgiveness

A few message statements relating to loving oneself should always be included in your message script, and preferably at the beginning.

The reason for doing this is to make the subconscious mind more receptive to the subsequent messages targeting the chosen subject.

This should also include statements of forgiveness in that it is allowable to having made mistakes in the past and permissible to let go of them. Some suggested statements that you could use are as follows:

• I love and respect myself completely
• I love myself more with each passing day
• I forgive myself for my mistakes
• I let go of my problems easily

Inserting some of these statements in your message script will not detract from helping address the target subject and will only help resolve any potential underlying issues.

Message Statements for Embracing Changes

Allowing oneself to change can be at times difficult, especially if the subconscious mind resists change of any type.

Adding a few statements to your message script that target this is strongly advised.

The purpose of these additional subliminal message statements is to suggest that change is allowed and embraced.

Examples of what you can and may wish to include are as follows:

• I allow myself to change
• It is acceptable for changes to happen in my life  
• I embrace changes in my life
• Changes in my life are good for me

You need only consider including two or three statements in your message script that address this. These can be placed at any point in the script, but again it is suggested that you place them close to the beginning to reduce resistance from the subconscious mind to the subject messages that follow.

Message Script Statements for Positive Self-Image

One of the most important sub-issues that you should address involves self-image.

Many people having the problem that your recording will target may feel less than positive about themselves.

Including message statements that help them feel accepted at the subconscious level is strongly suggested.

It will also indicate to their subconscious mind that they are worthy and render it easier for the subject messages to be received. A few statements you may wish to include are below.

• I feel good about myself
• I can do anything I set my mind on 
• I am worthy of success
• I am confident in my abilities

As with the other suggested statements about love and forgiveness or embracing change, these can be placed at the beginning of the message script. Another idea is to place them randomly within the script so that occasional positive messages targeting self-image are presented.

Combining Sub-Theme Messages with the Target Subject

Addressing sub-themes in you message script may seem to be nowhere near as important as addressing the target subject.

However, they should still be included as part of your message script design.

Another important consideration is the number of sub-theme statements included in the final script.

Several statements that address each of the important sub-issues such as self-love, forgiveness, embracing change and self-image should be included.

You can choose from any of the suggested ones above, or include those of your own.

But it is important that these sub-issues not dominate the message script and act only to support underlying issues.

If your final message script contains between the suggested 60 and 70 statements then a portion of these should be focused on sub-theme issues.

Including about 10 statements for sub-issues is reasonable and represents only about 15% of the total number of statements.

If you were to add perhaps six statements at the beginning of the script and inserted a few more self-image suggestions then your message script may appear as follows:

• I love and respect myself completely
• I forgive myself for my mistakes
• I let go of my problems easily
• I allow myself to change
• It is acceptable for changes to happen in my life 
• I embrace changes in my life
• SUBJECT MESSAGES
• ….
• ….
• I am confident in my abilities
• SUBJECT MESSAGES
• ….
• ….
• I am worthy of success in every way
• SUBJECT MESSAGES
• ….
• ….
• I feel good about myself
• SUBJECT MESSAGES
• ….
• ….
• I can do anything I set my mind on
• SUBJECT MESSAGES
• …
• … 

This should not be difficult to do and will help your listeners, even if they do not have underlying target issues. Remember also that your message script, whether subliminal or any other type, will be repeated several times when you create the final message audio track.

By including these sub-themes you are also providing an additional form of insurance that your recording will help achieve the desired effect.

Understanding and targeting sub-issues that may contribute to the problem that you message script addresses is important both to you as a creator and to your audience. You may even wish to create a subliminal, supraliminal or paraliminal audio recording that specifically address any of these sub-issues.

As long as you understand that underlying issues may exist in your target listener, then you should choose to include additional message statements that can help them. If you do then your recordings will only be of a higher quality and likely more appreciated by your audience.
