A More Flexible Listening Experience
Smart Sessions give you more control over how your sessions are experienced, without changing the core content.
You can adjust how a session begins, how it ends, and the background audio. You can also download the standard version of any session if you prefer simplicity. Smart Sessions can be created on the website or in the app.
Here’s how a Smart Session is put together:
Background Music
Calming music can play throughout the session, with adjustable volume.
Low
High
Traditional Recordings vs Smart Sessions
In the past, self-hypnosis recordings were sold as fixed tracks on CDs. That worked well for traditional recordings, but it didn’t allow much flexibility. Smart Sessions work differently, allowing different versions of the same session to be created without needing a separate recording for every variation.
Traditional Recordings
Smart Sessions
Background music track chosen for you
Select the background music you prefer
Fixed music and voice levels
Adjust the music in relation to the voice
Same relaxation period every time
Choose a shorter or longer opening
One fixed ending (usually waking you up)
Decide how it ends (sleep or wakefulness)
You can keep things simple, or make use of these options if you prefer. Standard versions are always available.
Using Smart Sessions
How do I create a Smart Session?
Smart Sessions are available once you’ve purchased a session on the website.
On the website, you’ll find your sessions in your account area, where your downloads are listed. From there, you can choose your settings, such as the induction, ending, background music, and volume controls, before creating your session.
If you’re using the app (iOS or Android), your sessions will appear automatically once you log in. You can open any session and choose your preferred settings in the same way.
You can either use the default version or adjust the settings to suit your preference.
Can I create more than one version of the same session?
Yes.
You can create different versions of the same session using different settings. For example, you might have one version with a shorter induction, and another one for listening before sleep.
Each version is created as its own audio file, so you can choose the one that suits you at the time.
Do I need to change any settings?
No.
Every session includes a standard version that is ready to use without any adjustments. The additional options are there if you want more flexibility, but they are completely optional.

Can I use Smart Sessions on both the website and the apps?
Yes.
Smart Sessions are available on both the website and in the app (iOS and Android).
Once you’ve purchased a session on the website, it will appear automatically in the app when you log in. You can then create and download your session using the same options.
If you’d like step-by-step guidance, you can follow our app guides:

Are Smart Sessions streamed or downloaded?
Smart Sessions are created as downloadable audio files.
Once your session is generated, you can download it and listen offline whenever it suits you.
Does changing the settings affect how the session works?
No.
The core therapeutic content of the session remains the same. The settings only change how the session is delivered, such as how it begins, how it ends, and the background audio.
Being able to choose these elements can make the experience feel more comfortable and natural, which can help you relax more easily and get more from each session.
