I hope to be his student, he my mentor. I want to meet with him often, ask him a million questions, learn about hypnosis, learn about the plasticity of my own mind. I hope my intensity and strength of interest draw his attention, hold his interest. I want to be his incredibly dedicated, talented student who is full of life and questions. He told me that we all have the resources within ourselves to make amazing, inspiring changes if we know how to utilize those resources. . .
All hypnosis is self-hypnosis.
I have the resources within my mind to learn with unprecedented efficiency. And so the past two days, I've begun exploring trance as a conscious choice. I have experienced deep trance several times, in contact improvisation, at amazing movies, when intensely engaged in learning, etc. I realized that intense introspection causes an onrush of images and sounds and possibilities, allowing me to sort out the best solution. What I've done in the two trances so far is ask myself a question that I want to introspect about and then rather than starting to consciously answer it, I allow my unconscious to associate and explore, while I, the homunculus, tag along for the ride.
