Unique Advantages of the EnSpire Programs: I. The foundation of the program content: Each program offered by EnSpire Press draws upon
Mark Bancroft's extensive background and training in the study and application of the dynamics of the mind. Twelve years of experiential work and academic training serve as the foundation upon which each program
is created. II. The approach is holistic with particular emphasis placed on the interconnected nature of human experience. Life functions as an "open system". The body, mind
and emotions interact, effect, and influence each other. Primary and secondary life areas function the same way. A person's career, self-image, primary relationship, persona, health, and sense of meaning
interact, effect and influence such life areas culminating into the lived experience of one's life. This understanding is critical if one is to work through a particular
life issue. It deserves recognition and respect. The individuality of the listener, and utmost respect for her/his beliefs, comprises a unique and highly important ingredient found on the EnSpire programs.
III. Each program is accompanied by a healing music soundtrack. The soundtrack incorporates nature sounds and specially composed healing music designed exclusively for the EnSpire
programs. [For more information on healing music see the article, Fundamentals of Healing Music.]
IV. Each program comes complete with two, full length sessions. Each EnSpire program provides you with two complete sessions. A side of subliminal music is not used in place of an actual,
full length session. The value and effectiveness between subliminal music and that of an actual program session which directly and actively involves the listener is enormous. Two complete sessions comprise
each program to provide the most effective means for generating authentic, natural, and lasting results. V. EnSpire programs are not suggestion-based: The purpose of the programs is not to
tell you what you will do or how you will live your life. While suggestion is the tradition of hypnosis and hypnotherapy, it misses an extremely important point: the unconscious does not respond well to demands
(i.e., you tell yourself you are no longer going to do something... and end up doing it anyway). In fact, the unconscious has a tendency to perceive outside intervention, such as suggestion, as a threat which
therefore causes increased resistance to life change. Instead of taking on the approach of being an external director/authoritarian issuing commands to the unconscious mind, EnSpire programs are designed to
serve as a guide in your process of inner change. The relationship is one of shared partnership. For these reasons, as well as others, subliminal suggestions or messages are not used-
what you hear is what you get. VI. Program content is individually developed and scripted: Considerable time and effort goes into the design and development of each program
session. Program content is not derived from generic scripts. Content of the sessions is based upon the unique nature and needs presented by the program's subject material. Program inductions are
derived from one of ten standard induction scripts. Subtle differences prepare the listener in advance for: self-inquiry and exploration; bodywork and physical healing; or visualization and guided imagery
exercises. The overall similarities between program induction and awakening segments serve to make cross-program listening easier and more effective. |
