The words are almost transparent for a reason. When the words are hard to read, the conscious mind becomes preoccupied with the image and the message imprints directly to the unconscious. It's a technique known as Critical Factor Bypass.

EDIT: This comment is becoming transparent too. Your conscious mind will ignore them because they are hard to read, but your subconscious mind is about to make a choice... about deepening your meditation... and feeling a growing sense of confidence... about buying my posters...

Critical Factor Bypass is a well known technique in hypnotherapy, and I could provide tons of links. That said, it's an experimental project and has been extremely beneficial for me. I thought I'd share.

Please do!

That's cool, but when you make vague claims that sound kind of like pseudo-science, you should go ahead and provide citations and links and stuff, otherwise people think you're a nutter.

Hypnotic trance—A deeply relaxed and focused state with increased suggestibility and suspension of critical faculties.

The same article then goes on to say meditation and visualization techniques are used to induce trance. Zission combines both: http://zission.com

"A ton of links" is not one. Just saying.

This screams pseudoscience all over the place.
