1. A method of electronically modifying a pre-existing hypnotic script media file for use in self-sedation of a user, comprising the steps of:
- receiving, to a processor through a user interface of a software application resident on a mobile device of the user, a first user input defining a selection of the pre-existing hypnotic script media file, wherein the pre-existing hypnotic script media file is comprised of a plurality of pre-recorded snippets that collectively have a first total play time;
receiving, to the processor through the user interface, a second user input defining a second total play time different than the first total play time;
modifying, using the processor, the first total play time of the pre-existing hypnotic script media file to be closer to the second total play time, the modifying including automated selection and insertion into the hypnotic script media file by the software application of at least one snippet not previously included in the plurality of pre-recorded snippets;
receiving, to the processor through the user interface, a third user input defining selection of a play option associated with the modified hypnotic script media file; and
initiating, by the processor, playback of the modified hypnotic script media file in response to receiving the third user input.

Abstract
A computerized system and method for modifying a pre-existing hypnotic script into a custom-made script for use in self-sedation by a user is disclosed. In one sense, the system can collect an input from a user specifying a desired time length and automatically adjust the playback length to accommodate the user by snippet selection and replacement from a collection of snippets stored in a memory. Snippet selection may be based on a variety of factors, which include a user'"'"'s particular style preferences determined through an indirect analysis.

10. A self sedation and suggestion system, comprising:
-
an input component for receiving inputs from a user, including; a first user input defining a selection of a pre-existing hypnotic script media file, wherein the pre-existing hypnotic script media file is comprised of a plurality of pre-recorded snippets that collectively have a first total play time, and a second user input defining a second total play time different than the first total play time; a processor in connection with the input component and configured to modify the pre-existing hypnotic script media file based on the second user input; a memory in connection with the processor; a time-adjustment module stored in the memory and directing the processor to modify the first total play time of the pre-existing hypnotic script media file to be closer to the second total play time by selecting at least one of the plurality of pre-recorded snippets that comprise the pre-existing hypnotic script media file and replacing the selected at least one snippet with a replacement snippet to create a modified hypnotic script media file; and an audio output component for enabling playback of the modified hypnotic script media file in response to receiving a third user input from the input component, the third user input defining selection of a play option associated with the modified hypnotic script media file. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
