All hypnosis is self-hypnosis. Google that exact phrase and you'll get something like 165,000 results. It's a given within the community, that you can't hypnotize someone against their will. And it makes sense. If someone doesn't want to be hypnotized, they can simply stop listening, or as the case may be, reading.
That said, the opposite is true. If a person wanted to go into a hypnotic trance, they'd just have to keep reading, because this is indeed a hypnotic induction. A powerful one, written to not only pull you into a hypnotic trance, but to arouse you and fill you with thoughts of submission, a loss of inhibition and control.
And it all starts very simply. Simply put, you must relax. Hypnotic trances are relaxing by nature, and the more relaxed you are, the easier it is to slip into a trance. There are a lot of ways to relax, of course, but try this, the old classic.
Breath in deep through your nose, hold it for a moment, then let it out. Keep breathing like this. As you read these words, keep thinking about your breathing. If you put in the effort to focus on your breathing, then by the time you stop focusing on it, you will have realized you are just that more relaxed.
Just breath and relax. There's no rush. You don't have to think your body into relaxation, you simply have to read along, think about your breathing, and you will relax. Simple. Easy enough to relax to the point you normally are at when it's the end of a long day and you're just letting your body unwind.
Let's go a little further. Wiggle your toes. Scrunch them up tight, then let them go. Let your toes relax. Some people may wonder about that, just how to relax your toes. And the brain is a powerful thing. If you simply imagine the idea of relaxation in your toes, it happens. If you imagine stress and tension seeping out of your toes, it happens.
Imagination is powerful, so we'll be using that. Imagine your toes starting to glow with a very soft color, pink or the orange of a summer sunset. Imagine that glow warming your toes and relaxing them even further. And then, imagine that glow starting to spread. Very slowly, just a little bit more every time you take in a another deep breath through your nose and let it out through your mouth.
Imagine the glow spreading up your legs, all throughout your body. Every breath relaxes you a little more, pulls the glow higher up your body, pulls you deeper towards trance. Towards hypnosis.
So now, you're doing three things for me. First, still focusing on your breathing, in through your nose, holding it for just that brief moment, and then letting it out through your mouth. Second, you're imagining that pleasant glow creeping up your body, feeling it relax every part of you more than you can normally feel. And third, and most important, you're still reading. Reading and following along with my words.
Good girl.
Coming along this far, focusing so deeply, doing so well. A very good girl indeed. Your body feels so relaxed, even sleepy, and you're still paying such close attention to my words, savoring each and every one. So, I'm going to give you a suggestion.
