Owner, Psychologist, Writer & Voice
Dr. David Illig
Psychologist
Dr. Illig resides in Portland Oregon where he divides his time between consulting in the legal world as a trial consultant and work in the area of self-improvement. He is a licensed Psychologist and a member of the American Psychology Association, and the American Society of Trial Consultants. His self-improvement products integrate mind/body/spirit approaches. He currently does very little individual therapy after years of work in that area as a Clinical Psychologist. His areas of specialty involved adult victims of child abuse, unconscious processes, medical psychology, mind-body interactions, habit change, marital and sexual issues, as well as general adult therapy.
David spends some of his leisure time in a variety of activities including tennis, running, biking, gardening, fly fishing and travel to exotic or beautiful places.
SOME HISTORY:
Dr. David Illig, the author and voice of the SuccessWorld Self Hypnosis and Subliminal Programs is a licensed Psychologist. His Ph.D. was awarded by Penn State University. He has worked in Community Mental Health, medical settings, and organizational psychology, and private practice. Some of his earliest graduate studies involved how our thinking (self-talk) influences both our behavior and feelings.
Hypnotic Learning
As his work with clients developed, he began to realize that much of the thinking and images that influenced people were not actually in “conscious†awareness. These words, pictures, images, thinking, self-talk, rules, conclusions, memories, etc. etc., were actually operating out of conscious awareness. They were occurring at an “unconscious†level. Imagine that the human brain is like 100 operating computers. But only ten have screens so that you can see what they are doing and having an impact on.. But all of the computers are operating and sending output into the system. The computers without visible screens are strongly influencing people regardless of what is in awareness. Hypnosis was a means of observing and influencing what was occurring at both the conscious and unconscious level. That drew him to it as a viable tool.
Self-hypnosis was a means by which people could address their own inner minds. Thus began years of study into the various schools of hypnosis and study with a great number of master teachers. Milton Erickson, M.D., considered by many to be the most influential teacher in clinical hypnosis, was a very significant influence on his approach and view of hypnosis and hypnotic technique.
Dr. Erickson found that all humans are able to use hypnosis if the format is very flexible and adaptable to the individual. The concept of “indirect†hypnosis rather than directive or authoritative hypnosis makes hypnosis a viable tool for almost everyone. “Stage†hypnosis is usually a very direct method which, although exciting and interesting, only works for a small percentage of people. This is the “Look into my eyes you are getting sleepy†version.
Dr. Erickson found that metaphors and stories that send the human brain/mind off to search for solutions and approaches that work for that individual work much better. He became famous for his teaching stories that worked on many levels; the surface level and many levels of unconscious underneath.
Dr. Illig has used the teachings of Milton Erickson and many of his peers and colleagues to create hypnosis patterns that allow the listener’s brain to both learn and search for new solutions, old solutions, healthy solutions. These are solutions that work for the individual in their own special way. We might not even know exactly what a person is doing that works, only that it works. The person most likely won’t know how their own unconscious is doing it. Only that it is. The teaching stories in these programs have been very effective for many people who failed with other methods. Part of the reason for this is the built-in flexibility.
The teaching stories and metaphors in the SuccessWorld programs allow each listener’s brain to find pathways to change without feeling like they are being ordered or commanded to do something in only one way. Direct orders are somewhat likely to bring out resistance rather than change. More “permissive†suggestions will be listened, considered, and more likely followed by the unconscious. “You may wonder how your brain accomplished that success…..†will be more effective than: “You will do it this way…..â€
There are also many levels of meaning that talk to both conscious and unconscious levels of the listeners mind. The programs also call upon all of the healthy resources that a person has access to, even when they’re unaware of them. These might include mind, body, spiritual aspects or even other healthy resources. Whatever is healthy and healing.
The SuccessWorld hypnosis programs do give guidance to the brain/mind of the listener to seek out and use only healthy healing patterns and to let go of old unhealthy patterns. The suggestions do create boundaries that attempt to keep a person within safe areas. For example, the weight loss programs have multiple suggestions that won’t allow the listener to lose weight to the point of being unhealthily thin. Healthy thin is ok. Sickly thin is not ok.
Subliminal Learning Process
After extensive work in the area of hypnosis, Dr. Illig sought other means to access the subconscious mind, the subconscious computers in every human. He began to review the area of subliminal process. Subliminal process basically means that information is presented to the brain that the conscious mind doesn’t notice. These could be visual, like hidden words or images that the conscious mind usually misses but the unconscious catches. The messages could be auditory, things we hear. A simple example is the voice that is at full volume but isn’t being noticed. Clearly part of the brain is hearing it. Another part of the brain is directing attention elsewhere. If we can get very positive messages into the brain without conscious awareness then these messages have the potential to influence our inner processes very effectively.
A simple “subliminal†process would be listening to the hypnotic tape while reading a book and not “paying attention†to the totally audible tape. Clearly your brain can “hear†the tape. Your conscious attention is mostly on the reading. Thus the hypnosis tape becomes a subliminal program. The effects using this method are different than when using the hypnosis tape by following along through the hypnotic process.
The Affirmation & Self-Talk Weight Loss program uses multiple levels of messages you can hear individually but presents them simultaneously and at different levels. The brain will only consciously track on some of the messages while the others are clearly “heard†but not consciously, just by attention, they become unconscious messages.
Another way to turn an audible (hearable) tape into a “subliminal†program would be to go to sleep while the tape plays. Part of the brain is listening. Plus this is “free†learning. You don’t want to do this too loud or all night so that your sleep is disrupted. Consult your physician or therapist if you are unsure about your sleep patterns.
The Subliminal Learning tapes of SW have a number of interesting features. The subliminal messages are all healthy and positive. They also direct the listener to make healthy use of the programs. The subliminal messages are controlled so that they get louder and softer depending on the volume of the music and nature sounds. Or they go up and down just below the voice on the hypnotic tapes. So during loud passages the messages are actually quite loud. They’re just masked within the other sound.
The messages are presented at a wide range of levels from soft to loud as well as in high numbers with an ongoing repeating echo.
Right and left brain messages. The SW programs have slightly different programs on the right channel versus the left channel. So if you are using stereo headphones you are getting slightly different messages into each ear. The reason for this is that we are somewhat “cross-brained,†that is messages going in one ear tend to impact more the opposite side of the brain. And we also have a tendency to use the different sides of our brain differently. The right brain tends to process certain things in certain ways and the left brain tends to process others things in other ways. The different channels make use of this capacity.
Using the programs without stereo or headphones is still very effective and should still be done.
The subliminal messages are also addressed to different aspects of our inner psychology. There are very young “mind†and adult “minds.†There are brave “minds†and fearful “minds.†As well as many other aspects of our being. We are made up of many parts. The goal is to help all of our parts work together as a healthy team.
World wide sales of Dr. David Illig programs are approaching 2 million copies.
