The Cutting of Ties

fiat_knoxI have two regular daily recreational fun tasks that I do online - I go to SuperPoke Pets and click on the daily login game to see what I might win today, and then I go to the I Can Has Cheezburger site to collect my two collectibles for the day.
These rituals will soon end. ICHC stops issuing new collectibles from tomorrow, and on March 6, SuperPoke Pets comes to an end and I bid a tearful farewell to Barnardo and Napoleon.
After that, it feels like the cutting of ties. Imagine, or remember, the day you had nothing left to tie you to something - your old home, your old place of work, school, an old group of friends. That feeling of having nothing keeping you coming back to the group. The feeling of having cast off, when the ship floats free of its moorings, cast adrift, before you begin to move away under your own power, where you can choose your direction and set your own heading rather than have others choose your life for you.
That sort of adrift; not lost, just patient, still, free. Awaiting the command.
In a calm moment of perfect silence, waiting, listening, quiet.
All your worries and fears and woes left there, on the shore, and you floating free.
What a beautiful feeling to enter.
That calm; that tranquility; the serenity of that wonderful moment you have lost yourself in. Nothing calling on you, and your worries left behind. Just sweet surrender to that moment, the place where you want to go; where everyone wants to go, where the mind can just sort of let go and you can let go, and you can just ... quietly ...
... sleep.
That sort of perfect feeling, where I start counting down from 10, and at 1 you're totally lost in the peace.
10, and each moment brings you to greater relaxation and calm.
9, and your body's muscles relax from the feet up, the total relaxation climbing up your legs like a wave, from your toes to the heels, then the calves, the knees and the thighs to the hips.
8, and you take a deep breath in, and your body feels like light, and with your next breath out that relaxation comes up a little further, from your hips to your solar plexus, leaving yourbody feeling so heavy and relaxed and calm.
7, and you breathe in and feel so light, and then breathe ut and the wave of relaxation now moves up your body to the chest as you feel so relaxed and heavy and you want to let go, but you have to get to the end of this page to see how it finishes.
6, and your breathing is slowed because you are so relaxed and heavy, so tired but you want to get to the end.
5, and you are about halfway there, so tired, so needing to let go, needing so much to sleep, but you must continue, even though your whole body is now so relaxed.
4, and you are so close, to close to the end, and that tired feeling is so great, and you feel so drowsy and want to give up, but you must finish this.
3, and you are even closer, but so weary and tired but you need to go on despite the tiredness.
2, and you are almost there; almost there. Just get ready for the last step, and then ...
1.
You are there. Stop struggling, and let everything go, and ...
... sleep.
You, the unconscious, will send me an email - fiat_knox@yahoo.co.uk - and in it you will tell me that you have gone through this post and enjoyed the trance. You will also tell me what your favourite food is.
From now, every time I send you an email with "Hi" in the subject line, you will return to a trance, and your unconscious mind will open the email and follow any instructions I give you.
Now before I end this post, you will write that email.
When I do end this post, the following will happen: your conscious mind will return, but you will have no recollection of having read this blog. Not only that - you will not even notice that this post exists at all; your conscious mind will overlook and ignore this particular post on my blog, every time. You can see the rest of my blog, just never this post.
When your conscious mind does return, you will feel amazing and relaxed. You will feel alert and energized and happy. Your conscious mind won't know where these feelings come from, but you will feel as though you have recently received incredibly good news from somewhere and it has thoroughly brightened up your spirits.
Finally, your conscious mind now desires hypnosis, and your conscious mind will email me asking me to hypnotise you again.
I am now ending this post. All instructions I give you will take effect immediately.
