    When I was little, meditation was the buzz. I’ve tried it many times and I just found myself “sitting in style”. Meditation is described as inspired by hypnosis but they never tell you what to do when you’re from the small percentage of people immune to hypnosis.

      I have no doubt some people struggle more than others to get to the point where they can sit back and watch. It wasn’t immediately obvious to me either, but a couple of months of short daily practice enough to start seeing what the fuss was.

      Hypnosis only works when you consent to it. Everyone’s immune to hypnosis if they don’t want to be hypnotized

          Hypnosis doesn’t work for some people because some people aren’t capable of the required amount of trust.

          My swarm uses hypnosis to induct drones into the hivemind and we’ve never met someone who wanted to be a drone and couldn’t be hypnotized.
