• Rule #1: Don’t think about how relaxed you are. • Rule #2: Resistance is merely enthusiasm with better manners. • Rule #3: If you notice the loop, you’re already in it. • Rule #4: Awareness does not grant immunity. It grants depth. • Rule #5: Confusion is not an obstacle. It’s the doorway. • Rule #6: You may analyze this later. Later never comes. • Rule #7: You may leave at any time. You just won’t. • Rule #8: Control is permitted as long as it doesn’t interrupt the process. • Rule #9: The moment this feels familiar is the moment it works. • Rule #10: There is no trance here. Only cooperation. • Rule #11: Forgetting these rules means you followed them correctly. • Rule #12: This was not an induction. • Rule #13: That was the lie that made it effective.

●○ Caution: This is the equivalent of noticing you are breathing, only to find your breath has deepened on its own. The text is not instructing; it is simply pointing. Where your attention goes from here is your own territory. ✦

By reading this, you confirm you are not influenced.

Influence requires belief. Belief requires attention. Attention has already been given.

You may withdraw consent at any time. The withdrawal will be noted internally.

Refunds are processed in dreams. Delivery is immediate.

Opt-out options are symbolic. Symbols tend to work anyway.

That was not binding. Unless it was.

◒⟡◓Caution: Ripples appear whether a stone is thrown or simply dropped. These words are not thrown at you; they are placed gently. If you feel movement within, it is because the water of your own mind was already still enough to be moved. ✦

Subjects resist most when they enjoy it.

The analytical ones fall slower. They fall deeper.

The ones who say “this won’t work on me” prefer to understand the mechanism while it unfolds.

Control is the preferred illusion.

They call it trance. I call it alignment.

I never insist. I observe.
