Transcript
Welcome to episode 8. So I’m curious about a certain word, said in my voice. Let’s try it out. What effect does the word POUR have on you? Is it a pleasant experience, or does POUR have no effect at all?
Do you think, or know, that this would be different in trance? That it would be perhaps more effective, if I took you under?
And, if the answer to all of that is “no”, if P.O.U.R. doesn’t manifest the proper, positive and calming sensation whenever I speak it, why not? Have you not listened to the session yet? Have you not spent enough time with it? Too busy playing with the other sessions? Or hey, maybe the trigger simply not working for you, in the way I intended?
I’m genuinely asking this question, and assigning you this as a task for the day. You know you love a good task. Tell me about POUR, and the effect it has. If you’ve been a good boy, and already shared your thoughts and experiences with that trigger setting, you can take the day off. Not from everything. Like don’t call your boss and be like “Hey…”
Everyday Hypnotic Triggers
Let’s see… have you heard Getting Longer? Do you remember that moment, stood outside the door, awaiting permission to knock? If so, did you catch the jingly little ringtone used in the session? It sounds like this…
P.O.U.R. is the first of a few triggers I plan to release with specific sounds that accompany them. Because this trigger is one that provides only positive sensations, I also feel comfortable using it any time, even if you might be making yourself busy, doing something important. So, I’m going to make the POUR sound effects available to you, and you can use them for… whatever you like!
Yes, this means you can remix the melody into a Balearic house anthem and take Ibiza by storm. Except I’ve heard it’s a little bit crap, so you might not actually want to go there.
Or you can just use one of the sounds as a phone notification or as an alarm clock. Those who have been with me for a while, we did this before, remember? We set it as a tone that would go off randomly. Now, this time around I’m not providing any tech support for getting it to work. I’ve decided that’s not one of my skills, and I trust you can all work it out.
I want you to be able to do this because the trigger we’re talking about isn’t just about me being able to reward you whenever I please. It’s about creating a pleasant sensation that brings you around to happy thoughts, and especially thoughts of time you have spent with me. I want this trigger to be able to grab your attention any time, to brighten your day if it happens to occur when you’re feeling gloomy, or to set you on the right track when it wakes you up.
If you make use of it as a phone notification, you can also delight in the one-in-a-million chance that someone might recognize it. Perhaps you’ll make a very good friend, if that happens.
Today’s Permissive Circumstance is the type I really enjoy. Sometimes I’ll say that you can enjoy release after you’ve completed a task, or listened to a particular session, but this is more a restriction or specification.
Today you have permission if you’re… wet. That means the shower, the tub, or perhaps coming in from a rain shower. If you find yourself in a thunderstorm, do not stand under a tree masturbating. Anything else is fair game. Enjoy yourself.
