Your Safety is Our Priority
At Budy, we're committed to creating a safe environment for your personal transformation journey. Here are our safety guidelines and resources to help you use subliminal affirmations and hypnosis safely.
Before Starting Your Journey
- Consult your healthcare provider: If you have any mental health conditions, consult a professional first
- Start with positive affirmations: Begin with uplifting, empowering messages
- Set realistic goals: Focus on achievable, positive changes
- Trust your instincts: If something feels wrong, don't use it
Using Affirmations Safely
- Keep affirmations positive: Focus on what you want to achieve, not what you want to avoid
- Use present tense: "I am confident" not "I will be confident"
- Be specific: Create affirmations that are personal and meaningful to you
- Start slowly: Begin with short sessions and gradually increase duration
- Monitor your progress: Pay attention to how you feel and adjust as needed
During Sleep Sessions
- Use comfortable volume: Keep the volume low enough to not disturb your sleep
- Ensure good sleep hygiene: Maintain a regular sleep schedule
- Don't overuse: Take breaks between intensive sessions
- Listen to your body: If you feel overwhelmed, take a break

- Feeling overwhelmed or anxious after sessions
