It's Been Some Time Since I Really Posted Anything. Let's See About Fixing That.

It's been some time since I really posted anything. Let's see about fixing that.

It's been a stressful couple of weeks on the outside of the screen. So I figured the best thing to do tonight is to offer everyone a nice chance to relax.

A nice opportunity to just let our worries slide off our minds like so much heavy baggage off our shoulders. Wouldn't that feel so nice?

We work so hard in our day to day lives. Meeting impossible standards, struggling just to get by, more and more each day.

It all adds up. More and more. Like heavy stones on our backs and shoulders.

And this heavy weight can sometimes feel overwhelming.

It can drag us down.

Make us exhausted, just from getting up in the morning.

Make every day a stressful time. With more and more, piling up on our backs and shoulders.

You can feel it too. Can't you?

Yes. You certainly can.

Fortunately, we have this opportunity here. Now.

A chance to just... relax.

We take deep breaths.

We allow our arms and legs to loosen out.

And we relax.

We allow our thoughts to fade into the background. Don't need those thoughts right now, do you? No.

Just breathe deep.

In.

Hold.

Out.

And as you exhale, feel your body grow more loose.

Feel your mind empty just a little bit more.

Now breathe deeply again.

In

Hold.

Out.

Good.

Continue breathing deeply.

Feeling your body relax more with each breath.

Feeling your thoughts fade with each breath.

In.

Hold.

Out.

Dropping down deeper with each breath

Relaxing more.

Feeling nice and deeply relaxed now.

Continuing to breathe deeply.

Dropping deeper down each breath

Thoughts nice and faded and fuzzy and blank now.

Dropping down, deeper and deeper.

Each breath taking you further away from conscious thought.

Each breath taking you further away from the stresses of the world.

Each breath taking you deeper into my words.

By now, it feels natural to be following my words

My words have been guiding you.

Deeper and deeper.

Away from conscious thoughts.

Deeper down into this lovely, wonderful relaxation.

And by now, it feels so natural to just follow my words without thought.

To nod and smile as my words tell you to breathe deeply.

In.

Hold.

Out.

There. Just like that.

Doing as my words say, without thought feels so natural for you now.

And you love to do what feels natural.

Breathe deeply.

In.

Hold.

Out.

Deeper down into a nice deep, relaxed trance.

Feeling better now than you have all week,

Body loose, relaxed. Mind empty. Thoughts blank.

Only my words seem to exist.

My words which have guided you here.

My words are all that seem to exist.

The rest of the world is faded and Grey.

Nothing else matters right now.

Just my words.

You are deep.

Mindless.

Empty.

Obedient.

And it's completely natural this way.

Because you are so very deeply relaxed.

And it is natural to obey the one who helped you get so relaxed.

So while you are this deeply relaxed, this deeply obedient and blank and empty, it is only natural that my words will be completely correct to you.

And if I, and only I, ever tell you that "Naturally you should..." You will, of course, obey, perfectly and without conscious thought of why you wouldn't. Because obeying my words without thought is so perfectly natural to you.

Naturally, you should always remember how very good this trance, deep and empty, and completely relaxed, feels. Naturally, you should return to this deeply relaxed and obedient state whenever I tell you, to.

You see? It's so easy this way. Naturally, you should tell me how you feel, while you are this deeply, completely relaxed. Say, "I am a good, obedient boy/girl, and I..."

Once you have told me that, naturally you should remain in this happy, comfortable, completely relaxed trance for as long as you want.

Once you are ready, you will find that you can awaken from this trance quite easily.

To awaken from this trance, naturally you should breathe deeply, counting up from 1 to 10 with each breath, and when you reach 10, you will be completely awake.

Now breathe deeply. And relax.

Good pets.
