30 Days of Hypnosis: Day 5

Instant trigger *SNAP* or long drawn out “You are getting very sleepy, eyes are heavy, limbs are heavy, so very heavy, so relaxed”?

Yes to both, def­i­nite­ly, in the prop­er circumstances.

I pre­fer the long, drawn-out induc­tions to estab­lish a work­ing trance state at the begin­ning of a hyp­not­ic sit­u­a­tion. This includes the whole induc­tion process, which might include frac­tion­a­tion as a series of tran­si­tion­al long-to-short induc­tions to deep­en the trance.

I pre­fer the instant induc­tions dur­ing the sit­u­a­tion. There is some­thing pow­er­ful in the prac­tice of using a sim­ple com­mand or trig­ger to pro­duce the same hyp­not­ic trance state that only a few min­utes before required a much more involved process to establish.

Basi­cal­ly, though, I enjoy the induc­tion process no mat­ter how it is performed.
