Relax Now: Hypnosis Meditation 12+

This hypnotherapy app is exceptional and has been successful for me. The voice of the hypnotherapist - David Ridgeway - is very soothing and peaceful. He doesn't speed along too fast, unlike some others I've heard. Listening to this session twice a day for several weeks has brought my anxiety under control, and has been - frankly - transformative. It's compelling to think that you can use something like this to help heal yourself without relying on medication.

One thing I really like about this app is that there are a variety of background sounds or music you can select, to hear while listening to Mr. Ridgeway's voice. You can also adjust those sounds up or down depending on your preference. On most (if not many) other apps like this, you don't have that option, and if the music drowns out the hypnotherapist's voice, well, you're stuck with it. There is also a nifty little "relaxation machine" included (for ambient sounds like beach waves, binaural beats, fire crackling rainforest, etc.) for just relaxing or getting to sleep.

I can't say enough about "Relax Now" -- it's the best hypnotherapy app I've found, and I highly recommend it to anyone struggling with anxiety or insomnia.

I will admit that I was skeptical. I am a worrier and often hold tension in my neck and jaw, giving myself headaches. After just one use of this app I woke up feeling more fully rested and relaxed and ready for the day than I have in years! I usually toss and turn at night trying to sleep and wake up groggy but not after listening to this app. I also awoke with no tension in my neck or jaw- amazing!

I love that the app allows you to chose a whether to wake up or sleep at the end and the alarm feature. You get to pick a background sound and how loud the sound is and the how loud the voice is- you even get to pick a calming nature video! You can also choose how much of the hypnosis to listen to- allowing for a short version in the middle of the day if you're feeling stressed out. Lastly, the relax sound machine is a great bonus!

Even if you're skeptical- try it!!!

This is the first thing I've ever tried that actually helps with chronic insomnia. When my brain spins up at 2:30am, I can't take pharmaceuticals, and other relaxation techniques have been only slightly effective. With this app, my brain has something to occupy it so it doesn't have the opportunity to worry about everything in the world. I've used it about a dozen times now and it really works for me. Strong recommend.

Incidentally, I've always thought hypnotism was a bunch of poppycock. I don't think hypnotism is what's making this app effective for me. Others may find a different truth. Regardless, I'm not going to argue with success. Thanks, Tap.
