Ugh, yes you can conciously do that no problem. Or you can just sit back relax when you have a minute in the day and use it as mental imagery with the thought of directing it to your gut without the tapes, but stick to the schedule,but remember part of this is practicing using communication between your brain and your gut, using imagery and thought.Hope that helps.------------------Moderator of the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Anxiety and Hypnotherapy forumI work with Mike and the IBS Audio Program. www.ibshealth.com www.ibsaudioprogram.com
