Hypnotize yourself to be a pony, links included

[Redquill999 8]

I notice that a lot of ponies don't really know what to do, so here's what I suggest.

First I recommend laying on your belly. This helps you feel wings (if you are trying to get wings) and a tail. Second, I don't know how many of you do this, but don't try to keep completely still. Doing so prevents you from totally relaxing and falling into a trance. Third, if you are halfway through and you are thinking to yourself you are not in a trance. A hypnosis session is most effective when you fall into a trance during the induction part and snap out of the trance at the end. If you do it correctly then it will seem like you just started the hypnosis when it ends. Also, pay VERY close attention to the voice. This helps you fall into a trance.

That's still rude. Especially since you're his own brother.

That's assuming he's doing that to intentionally offend you. He's the older, right?

 

Still, I noticed a couple things.

First: remember that guy who said that, after doing the Twi file, would put all the dishes in a specific order after washing them? That's what I just did too.

Two: I'm a Starcraft player. I'm new to it, and most players are far more experienced since that game is quite old. However, I (supposedly) don't mind losing and would just laugh it off. 

Today, however, losing a couple tournament games really frustrated me, but it STILL didn't make me lose control. Usually, just a little bit of frustration or joy would make me me respectively yell in anger or jump for joy. However I managed to keep my focus regardless.

I also cast games for my clan, and I noticed my commentary went from "ZOMG HE'S GOING ALL IN *yells loudly during the battle*" to "tactical commentary" where I calmly explain the players'  builds and reasons.

 

I thought the personality changes were limited to Twilightstate and that they weren't supposed to leak into my actual personality :V

Dammit I liked being crazy

But maybe this is all some sort of placebo and I'm just having a "rationality day"

Turns out I've never really been in trance.

But I could still feel some changes. Sometimes quite vividly.

Okay. My ears are very very strong. It's scary.

Trance is different for everypony. When you "black out" during a file, typically that means you simply went in to a really deep trance (or you fell asleep, though likely if you were to "wake up" just in time for the file to end you likely were in trance regardless). You can still be "awake" during the whole file and still gain results.

[Bunnyhop123 194]

Well, it's been quite some time since I last tried the file, so I guess I'll retry again in a little while.  Like Colon Vee, I've never been in trance (at least, I'm pretty sure I haven't) yet, but I've still felt several changes, though they weren't as big I had hoped.  The biggest things to happen were that one time I nearly fell on my face due to temporary quadrupedalism, I felt a phantasmal sensation where a mane might go, and my fingers felt like they were melding together, which was AWESOME.

[caramba2654 602]

I found something that should really help me: a reference image.

 

 

 

 

This is a drawing that really resembles what I imagine during the trance. Being able to visualize what I want to look like outside a trance really help me imagine when I actually am in a trance. I mean, I could never figure out how the hair worked, until I saw this drawing.

 

So if you're having trouble visualizing yourself while listening to a file, you can try to look up a reference image and try to work it out from that.

I wanna share this little experiencedI had a few days a go. I was at the mall with my friends we were talking then I saw this small open bookstore. As i saw it I said it "oh look, books" .My friends still continue to talk to each other except me. at that moment.. I felt a little weird I mean, like my mind is conflicting if I should check it out or not. I kept staring at that small book store as we pass by.

 

I dont usually that tbh I dont do that at all... it was very weord that I kept staring that book store. because books in general doesn't interest me. but thatoment I feel a little weird.

 

I dont know if it's me or the hypnosis

I feel like I was almost in trance.  It felt weeeeeird, like my mind's perspective was shrinking and stretching around, for lack of a better description.  And then, my left foot was moving on its own, numbing, and then my toes scrunching together on their own.

That's awesome. The toes scrunching feels weird but the fact that it's becoming hooves is awesome

Shame I was interrupted by noises in the house, but I smell progress.  I've gotta go to bed now: school in the morning.  Say hi to Fluttershy for me, I guess.

Im not 100% sure, only about 75%, but I think I might move to the Twilight Files for now.

Will do. Actually i wonder what she is doing right now.........

Hmmm, if that's the case, why do you believe so?

Well hopefully you have success on that file.

[TheAnonOne 48]

Well, I can't really give any rational reasoning right now, besides that it kind of feels like it might be the right move.

*nods* well if that's what you wish, just make sure you reset before doing so.

I am not really sure, and Im not saying this to sound rude or aggressive, that you would see this move as a little ill-timed or ill-advised.

[Soul Flare 403]

When I read that I thought to myself "because Twilight is best pone, duh"

Then I realized

Twi's always been one of my least favorites.

Why would I think that? :V

 

Also, I've been reading up on the hypno forums

 

Trances are not special states or a kind of sleep. They are more comparable with blanking out while driving along a monotone road.   

 

 

So maybe I DID get into trance. The general guideline seems to be "as long as you're not having distracting thoughts, are relaxed and focused on the file, that'll do"

*blinks* Ah yeah, I tend to do that, just making sure ponies are taking the right paths without trying to shortcut through it. Maybe that came off as a bit hard on my part...

[AuraBlue 329]

Well i have an update:

So today i was very exhausted due to me only having 2 hours of sleep last night. I got home at 3:30 from work and i crashes out and woke up an hour ago. During my sleep i went into my dream world again (which somehow changed itself into equestria) and had another "dream" where is was hanging out with Fluttershy. Again it felt real since Fluttershy hugged me and it felt real. Also i noticed that when i looked at my reflection in the dream i visualized myself as my ponysona. When i woke up from the dream my body felt like a pony for about 20 min before it felt human again......except i still feel the muzzle, pony ears, tail, and wings

No i did not think you were trying to be rude or anything, no hard feelings, you're just trying to make sure everyone makes a good decision.

My curiosity piques me, what does your ponysona look like?

*nods* I tend to do that, maybe it's because I don't want others to experience the same thing I did, not pleasant at all to say the least.

If you don't mind me asking, What did you experience that was not pleasant?
