Can you do me a favour?

(This is a very old induction script/joke, enjoy)

Can you do me a favour? 

I’d like you to pay close attention on these words as you read them. Not just skimming past, the words barely grazing your brain. Actually read them with intent, thank you. 

You’d be doing me a real solid if you started to notice your body for a moment. Is it comfortable, relaxed? If not, I’d really appreciate it if you’d find a better position, just so you can read the words better, you know? Now that you’re in a comfortable, safe place, it’d be great if you’d let your muscles relax and thaw for me. Melting like butter into the surface you sit on, letting the tension out of your shoulders as you do me a favour and relax.

Now you may be noticing your breathing slowing just a little bit, maybe settling into a nice easy pattern. It’d be super helpful if you would take nice deep breaths for me. You’d be doing me a massive favour, to concentrate on my words as you let the breaths flow in and out of you. 

Because you’re able to concentrate so easily, now that you don’t have to worry about breathing and relaxing. You can find that they just stick in your mind for a little while longer. Can you do that for me? Let my words bring you further along this nice relaxed plane, deeper and deeper into a calm, serene feeling. I’d like you to drop deeper down with every word you read. If you can, that’d be great.

To help you sink a little deeper, I’m going to count to five. At five you can feel a lovely, trance-like feeling fully envelop you.

1. Already so relaxed and comfortable
2. Falling deep deep deep
3. Doing me such a favour, by dropping here.
4. and  dropping again, so deep and calm
5. Drop. 

You’ve done so well to drop down here for me. Done so well to do everything you can to follow my words. And you enjoy doing me this favour, don’t you? Well I have one more favour to ask of you. All this time I’ve been asking if you Can do things for me. This may have been a little pun on my part. As the favour I really would love you to help me with involves cans. Aluminium or steel cans. I’m sure you’re wondering, how could they possibly be relevant, but you know how nice all my other little favours feel. Remember how good it feels to relax for me? Feeling so good to sink for me, doing all these little favours. So this specific favour can feel just as good as that. 

Because I get very upset when those cans are put in the wrong bins. Public, general bins just send them straight to landfill, which is such a waste of a good resource. But I think you can do something about that. Just doing another favour for me, just as you have sunk deeper and deeper into this feeling.

So if you’ve just finished usage of any soda can or another kind of can , I’d love you to feel strongly compelled to put it in a recycling bin. Completely unable to put them in the wrong bin, since it would feel so good to do the right thing. So much pleasure to do me a favour and put it in the right bin. Even if you’re outside, you’ll just be compelled to hang on to that can until you can do me a massive favour and recycle it properly. 

As you let this suggestion sink in, I’d love if you’d start to feel a more distinct pleasure swell within your body. Because by allowing that suggestion to solidify in your head, you’ve been so great for me, I think it’s time I returned the favour. In this relaxed state, feel your senses heighten, feel the pleasure becoming more and more intense. Reverberating waves of pleasure, crashing through your body, can be your reward for being so very good. Coming closer and closer to the most amount of pleasure you can feel. Feeling so good, so relaxed and bursting with pleasure. And when you are ready, you’ll reach a climax of that pleasure for me.

Now.

This pleasure, all for doing me a favour and recycling your cans properly. I’d like you to feel this pleasure every time you recycle for me. Because it pleases me so much that you are doing the right thing. Your pleasure, every time you recycle a can, is indicative of how much I appreciate you doing this little thing for me.

When you’re ready, I’d like you to start coming back up out of trance. At one, you will be fully awake and alert.

5. Energy flowing back into your limbs

4. This energy reaching your torso, filling you with fresh air

3. Head clearing, coming back up to the waking world

2. More and more aware of your surroundings

1.Fully awake and alert, entirely out of trance. 

Thanks so much for reading this script, and taking in my suggestion. You’ve done me a real favour. 

In short: Recycle your fucking metal cans.
