Old trances
It is completely clear to me why these things are not in the current hypnotic community -- they where so terribly awful as to be humorous. It is not clear if it was that the author knew nothing about hypnosis, that he just could not explain things, or if he was deliberately giving directions doomed to fail, but the net effect was as if all three applied. No imagery or sensation enhancing wording whatsoever, sort of like "look here, now you are smelling an orange, you are now hypnotized" -- it was that bad. She tried some things with posture involving a wall, and all the posture did was make compliance guaranteed to not be there, such as hoping to get an arm to levitate that could not possible levitate because of how it was trapped by the wall.
It did get better as it went on, but only because Goddess X discarded the material and went with her usual finesse. It is odd that when reading the descriptions it is not clear how bad they are, but actually trying it disclosed their true nature.
Hmm, between this and Comic Book Hypnosis, things which claim to teach how to trance have a 0 for 2 record.
