Pre-hypnosis
Added 2021-04-07 15:51:36 +0000 UTCIt's interesting, what goes through one's mind, as they're about to begin a session with a hypnotist. The pendant hasn't started swinging, and yet...

The anticipation in watching a pendant that’s about to start swinging before your eyes can be a form of hypnosis all on its own.
You know what’s coming. The way your eyes will immediately be glued to it as it goes back and forth.
You can already feel those nice, relaxed feelings starting to spread through your body. You can feel your eyes fluttering as you imagine the sensation of having your mind wiped clean with every swing. If you could tear your eyes away, you would see your hypnotist’s grin.
They know what you’re imagining, they’ve made sure that this is what you do. It makes their job so much easier, when your own brain begins to bring you down before they’ve even started. But you can’t tear your eyes away, and the pendant has begun swinging.
