Hi Hopingforthebest! I don't do Blaketalks; but I've been doing Steve G. Jones' nighttime recordings for a month now. And I too was able to stay awake during the first few nights; now I get into that really relaxed state pretty early on, fall asleep, then wake up at the end. I've been avidly studying hypnotherapy and reading his books and stuff; and it seems that you and I are actually successfully entering the Theta state of consciousness, and possibly even Delta, while listening to our recordings. The first state is Beta, which is when you're fully conscious; like how we are when we're awake during the day. The next state is Alpha, which is the state of light hypnotic trance. We go in and out of this state at different times during the day; while watching TV, being on the computer a long time, playing video games, reading a book, driving for a long time. Outside stimuli doesn't really distract you; but you are still able to react and make decisions. Your subconscious mind is 200 times more open to suggestions during this state than in the Beta state. Theta is next, which is when you're alseep. And Delta is when you're in a deep sleep. So, by the fact that you are getting really relaxed early on in the session, then falling asleep during it, and waking up near the end, I'd say you are responding well to hypnosis. Again, I don't have Blaketalks, so I don't know exactly what he says on those recordings; but if my similar response to the Steve G. Jones ones is any indication, in addition to what I've learned about hypnosis in general, I'd be very encouraged if I were you! Follow up with LOTS of positive thoughts during the day; and imagine yourself with larger breasts every chance you get.
Rest assured, though; falling asleep during a session is fine! Your body may be sleeping, but your ears are always "awake;" and they will continue to register every word on your recording.
I personally would rather be "asleep" during the recording than awake; because then my conscious mind can't try to contradict the words.
I hope this helped!
