HYPNOvember DAY 11
Added 2024-11-11 15:03:37 +0000 UTCOver the past several months, you've had the opportunity to explore and develop your skills in areas like amnesia, depth of trance, self-programming, obedience, responsiveness, and agency. One thing that all of these areas have in common is that if you make an ally of your unconscious mind then your experiences will be even more effective - and in HYPNOvember you're going to let your unconscious mind take center stage. The entire spotlight, if you will.
For each day in November, set aside some time in which to drop into trance with the specific intention of letting your conscious mind take a step back while your unconscious mind responds to a daily prompt. The way your mind chooses to respond is up to you! Whatever happens, share it in the comments of the appropriate post here on Patreon, and if you want to, in the "#trance-experience-share" channel of my Discord server.
For DAY 11 - Set aside 20 minutes (this amount of time will get larger as the month progresses.)
The prompt for your unconscious mind is: Joy!
Comments
If there is a difference between joy and happiness, I would say it is that joy is a very explosive sort of elation. When it hits, there isn't room for anything else, and similar to an explosion it tends to die down pretty quickly once its fuel is depleted. After dropping into trance, my unconscious gave me a taste of the last time I experienced joy. It was three days ago, over something rather mundane when you think about it. I was just in the same space as a dear friend. As we played games together there were a few moments, moments that went exactly as one might expect, moments that were entirely outside of anything we could have expected. Those things you might expect, they were assuring, comforting, reflections of an enduring and intimate history. They were moments of fun without any of the concerns weighing on our minds and hearts. Those moments one might never have expected were signs that even as we remain who we are, we grow. And whether through growth or an opportunity allowing us to showcase the best in ourselves, we got to surprise ourselves and one another, all while getting some good laughs in. As that joy simmered down, I remember the joy I felt in September at Deepmind Darkwood, probably because my mind will gladly take any reason on any level of consciousness to think about Lee :)
