 "Maybe you'd better take Friday off too," she added, reaching discountrealitysites down to open my zipper.
 Meg discountrealitysites and I followed the others' lead and helped ourselves to a few discountrealitysites of the folding mats. They reminded me of my discountrealitysites college wrestling room pads - thick, dense, vinyl-covered, and extremely comfortable for sitting, standing, or lying discountrealitysites down.
 "So much for the preliminaries," Carol said. "Does anyone have questions before discountrealitysites we go on?"
 The question discountrealitysites was barely out when a voice from discountrealitysites across the room discountrealitysites shot out, "What if you can't discountrealitysites be discountrealitysites hypnotized discountrealitysites?" We all looked at the speaker discountrealitysites: a discountrealitysites slim blonde woman, early twenties, in a discountrealitysites designer discountrealitysites warm-up suit. The man next discountrealitysites to her sat discountrealitysites perfectly still and watched her discountrealitysites, almost seeming to fade into the background. Her discountrealitysites voice was discountrealitysites strong and sure, causing me to wonder discountrealitysites if she was asking or challenging.
 "Yes."
 "You mean you've never had someone you couldn't put under?" Ellen's tone was openly skeptical now, but Carol seemed unconcerned.
 "It's not really a question of putting someone under," she explained discountrealitysites patiently. "Going into hypnosis is a process that happens entirely discountrealitysites within a person's own mind discountrealitysites. I can't make you or anyone else enter a hypnotic state. What I can do, what I will do, is teach you how to enter that state yourself or in response to a suggestion from your partner. If you want that to happen, Ellen, it will happen discountrealitysites; if you don't, it won't. The discountrealitysites outcome discountrealitysites is always what you want it to discountrealitysites be."
 There was some discountrealitysites shuffling around discountrealitysites as we adjusted ourselves discountrealitysites into position discountrealitysites. The ceiling, I noticed, had a number of discountrealitysites colorful dots on it. "Choose discountrealitysites a spot on discountrealitysites the ceiling," Carol's voice told us, "and discountrealitysites focus on discountrealitysites it discountrealitysites." There was a discountrealitysites dark blue discountrealitysites dot near the middle of my field of vision, so I discountrealitysites fixed my gaze on it discountrealitysites and discountrealitysites waited for more discountrealitysites instructions.
 Carol's voice grew discountrealitysites smoother, softer, more seductive as she began to talk us discountrealitysites into trance discountrealitysites. "Everyone take a nice, deep breath now discountrealitysites. Hold it ... hold it ... and now discountrealitysites exhale, completely, slowly discountrealitysites, and let yourself sink into the pics mats. Very good discountrealitysites, everyone. Now breathe in again, deeply and discountrealitysites slowly. Hold it. And exhale discountrealitysites, slowly, completely, feeling yourself sinking a little further into the discountrealitysites mats." She had us do this several discountrealitysites times, each time exhorting us to relax and let pics the mats support us .
 "As we go along, I discountrealitysites want you to be aware of your breathing and each breath you take. Each time that you exhale, let your discountrealitysites neck relax discountrealitysites, let discountrealitysites your shoulders drop, let your hips and discountrealitysites thighs go loose. It will discountrealitysites feel discountrealitysites wonderfully good."
 Carol then launched into an informal discountrealitysites lecture on the discountrealitysites basic theory of hypnosis. She described how people actually go into pics and out of various trance states normally every day when they drive, watch television discountrealitysites, read, dance, or discountrealitysites do almost anything that requires concentration. "That ability to focus on one thing or sensation, so that other sounds and stimuli are blocked out or discountrealitysites ignored, is what a discountrealitysites trance really is," she told us. She discountrealitysites went on to explain some of the more important principles regarding the discountrealitysites hypnotic discountrealitysites state: that people can always choose to discountrealitysites end the discountrealitysites trance if they wish discountrealitysites; people can also choose to reject a suggestion if it discountrealitysites conflicts with their moral sense or doesn't feel safe; and that post-hypnotic discountrealitysites suggestions wear off if discountrealitysites they are not used regularly pics. "We've all read or heard of stories in discountrealitysites which someone drops into a trance discountrealitysites by hearing some random phrase discountrealitysites that they were conditioned to years before," she said. "It makes an interesting fictional device, but it could never really discountrealitysites happen."
 "It was ... interesting," I said pics. "I wonder what all she told us discountrealitysites while we discountrealitysites were out of it."
 My field of vision narrowed to discountrealitysites just the road in discountrealitysites front of me as I tried to ignore the discountrealitysites exquisite sensations in my crotch. Finally I gulped and found a couple of words. "I'm speechless ," I confessed.
 "You're not discountrealitysites driving," I pointed out. "Go ahead and come if you want discountrealitysites to; blow off some steam."
 An eternity later discountrealitysites, we cruised discountrealitysites into the garage. I hit the button to close the door and jumped out of the car, fumbling with my discountrealitysites keys to locate the discountrealitysites inside door discountrealitysites key. Meg discountrealitysites was right behind me, her hands running up and down my upper body discountrealitysites. I got discountrealitysites distracted and discountrealitysites dropped my keys onto the concrete floor discountrealitysites.
 Meg's legs wrapped discountrealitysites themselves around me, simultaneously squeezing my torso and pulling me closer to her center. The discountrealitysites rising pitch and frequency of her moans discountrealitysites told me discountrealitysites she was almost there . I clenched down hard pics with my groin muscle, lifting my discountrealitysites cock and putting a little extra pressure on the top of discountrealitysites her canal, and that was all she wrote. Meg shrieked again and again as discountrealitysites the orgasm ripped through her body. I was so pleased with her reaction that I barely noticed I was still pumping discountrealitysites away. Then, with almost no warning, my discountrealitysites balls burst and I came . One spurt after another came flying out like water from a fire hydrant; part of me wondered if I was going pics to pull a muscle this discountrealitysites way. Finally the fury subsided and we collapsed against each discountrealitysites other, kissing discountrealitysites and stroking as we fell into post-coital bliss. A long time later, we separated. We looked at each other in wonder.
 "Wow," I remarked, knowing even as I said it how inadequate that word was.
 While I was discountrealitysites up, I grabbed discountrealitysites one of the high-backed discountrealitysites chairs from the team room and dragged it back to my cube discountrealitysites. From the progress on my computer screen, I figured I discountrealitysites had about discountrealitysites twenty minutes to kill.
 I told Meg discountrealitysites about what I'd done over dinner, expecting her to share a laugh with me over getting caught by Shirley. She surprised me by saying that discountrealitysites she'd done the same thing.
 The discountrealitysites weekend was mostly discountrealitysites unremarkable. We spent Saturday catching up on errands and odd jobs pics: laundry, washing cars, a little light household maintenance, that kind of thing. Meg discountrealitysites practiced her self-hypnosis in the morning discountrealitysites right after her shower discountrealitysites, and I did mine after discountrealitysites dinner.
 The alarm set, I resumed my position next to discountrealitysites Meg. We each took a series discountrealitysites of discountrealitysites deep, slow breaths to get ourselves started. As I relaxed into discountrealitysites the bed, I could sense Meg next to me doing discountrealitysites the same. We found ourselves breathing in unison without really trying to. Soon I felt the warm, inviting buzz discountrealitysites of hypnosis coming over me and discountrealitysites I let go into discountrealitysites it, confidant that we would wake up at the discountrealitysites appointed time.
 "Did the clock discountrealitysites go off?"
 "-or did we wake discountrealitysites up just now because we had already decided to?" We both shrugged at discountrealitysites that one discountrealitysites. Another thing to ask Carol about on Thursday.
 That week passed very slowly for us. After our little experiment discountrealitysites Monday, we were discountrealitysites both anxious to discountrealitysites continue discountrealitysites with our education discountrealitysites.
 "Of course not," Carol agreed. "Don't worry, we've got some Cliff's Notes for you." Jim discountrealitysites reached into the canvas bag they had discountrealitysites carried into the dojo with them and produced pics a number discountrealitysites of folded booklets. "These booklets have a number discountrealitysites of standard induction scripts in them," Carol explained while her husband passed out the materials. "You'll recognize several pics of the samples discountrealitysites in discountrealitysites there discountrealitysites from last week, because I blended several standard scripts together. Look these over together and pick the discountrealitysites one that your partner is most comfortable with. Think about what elements discountrealitysites from last week's induction worked particularly discountrealitysites well for discountrealitysites her, and choose a script pics that discountrealitysites focuses on those elements."
 Meg had already made herself at home. She had discountrealitysites herself discountrealitysites stretched out lengthwise on one mat , with another acting as a pillow under her head and discountrealitysites a third propping up her feet. Her hands were folded together on top of her midriff, and her eyes were fixed on me discountrealitysites expectantly. "Ready when you are," she said discountrealitysites.
 I was jittery, anxious discountrealitysites, tense. To give myself a little time to settle down discountrealitysites I had discountrealitysites Meg start with a few deep breaths discountrealitysites. Carol caught my eye from discountrealitysites across the room discountrealitysites and discountrealitysites put a hand to her diaphragm. The discountrealitysites signal was clear discountrealitysites: breathe, Patrick discountrealitysites. So I joined Meg in a couple of deep ones and soon I could feel myself growing more relaxed discountrealitysites and discountrealitysites confident. It even occurred to me that this would segue well into the induction we had chosen. Shifting closer to her side, I started the induction discountrealitysites talk.
 I could see Meg discountrealitysites's hands twitching a little, her fingers spreading apart discountrealitysites just a hair, and took that as a good sign. "As discountrealitysites you feel pics that slight tingle, that comforting flow of air moving through your pics arms, you discountrealitysites may notice discountrealitysites that it leaves the muscles in your discountrealitysites hands feeling warm discountrealitysites and loose, relaxed, lazy. Just imagine that, imagine the air flowing through your hands, relaxing discountrealitysites them discountrealitysites, bringing that discountrealitysites tingle through your discountrealitysites elbows and shoulders, relaxing your arms completely as it flows discountrealitysites through. Breathe deeply discountrealitysites and feel the flow as your arms relax so completely." The twitching stopped, and Meg's arms seemed to settle, rising and falling as she breathed in and out.
 After a few seconds, I continued. "As you feel discountrealitysites that comforting, relaxing flow of discountrealitysites air moving through your hands discountrealitysites, through your arms to your discountrealitysites shoulders, maybe discountrealitysites finding again that faint tingling sensation, perhaps discountrealitysites in your elbows or forearms this time, then moving down discountrealitysites through your body. Down through your chest and stomach, down discountrealitysites through discountrealitysites your hips discountrealitysites, down through your thighs, into your knees discountrealitysites and shins and pics calves." The script had the word 'down' in italics, so I discountrealitysites gave each discountrealitysites 'down' some extra discountrealitysites emphasis. "Again, you discountrealitysites might feel that faint tingling sensation just there, just below your knees, moving down through discountrealitysites your ankles and out the bottoms discountrealitysites of your feet. And you discountrealitysites can find a great deal of discountrealitysites calmness and easiness in this rather strange idea that you can breathe in through your discountrealitysites fingers, that discountrealitysites you can actually feel the air discountrealitysites moving discountrealitysites through discountrealitysites your whole body in one discountrealitysites single discountrealitysites, warming, comforting discountrealitysites flow. A unidirectional flow, moving through your discountrealitysites whole body in one single comforting flow . The calmness and relaxation you breathe in doesn't get pics involved with the tensions and stresses that discountrealitysites you breathe away from yourself. With each breath you take, with each word I speak, you find yourself becoming steadily more and more relaxed discountrealitysites."
 "I think so." I told pics him what I had in mind; he discountrealitysites made a few suggestions, which I gladly accepted, and told me to proceed.
 "Meg, darling, you are now discountrealitysites in a deep, delicious state of hypnosis. You are more discountrealitysites relaxed than you ever thought anyone discountrealitysites could ever be. You are completely in touch with discountrealitysites every part of your body and mind, and they are all under your complete control. It discountrealitysites's so pleasant, so very pleasant, to let yourself relax this discountrealitysites way and let me take discountrealitysites care of you, let me take care of everything. Would discountrealitysites you like to be able to return to this wonderful, peaceful discountrealitysites state of mind again, Meg?"
 "Yes."
 "Then discountrealitysites that's what will happen, darling. 'Goodnight, Gracie' will be your hypnotic trigger from now discountrealitysites on, and you will always go immediately into a deep hypnotic sleep when I discountrealitysites say those words to you. Won't pics you?"
 Here goes, I thought to myself, and turned back to address discountrealitysites Meg. "Time discountrealitysites to wake up, Meg. I'm going to count to three, and when I discountrealitysites reach three your eyes will open and you will be discountrealitysites fully awake. One ... two ... three discountrealitysites."
 "First, there is discountrealitysites the type discountrealitysites of suggestion you experienced last week - one that stimulates desire. The subconscious mind takes everything at face value; if you tell your partner under hypnosis that something is very sexy to discountrealitysites her, it will be. Even something as commonplace as a fire hydrant can discountrealitysites become a highly erotic image if you suggest to her that it is. As you all felt discountrealitysites last week, desire-enhancing suggestions are discountrealitysites very powerful."
 I had to discountrealitysites agree with that one; the suggestion had certainly been effective on discountrealitysites us.
 She certainly looked discountrealitysites relaxed discountrealitysites. Then Jim snapped his fingers and Carol stood up straight discountrealitysites again, the playback apparently over.
 "Yes discountrealitysites, Virginia," he said, "you can discountrealitysites use hypnosis to induce an orgasm."
 "Meg," I discountrealitysites said softly, "I want you to think back to last Monday afternoon, when pics you were practicing your trance and I brought you to orgasm. Did you enjoy that experience?"
 "As you wish, darling. Your body remembers all of the sensations, all of the feelings, all of the sights and sounds and smells discountrealitysites, of discountrealitysites that experience. Your body remembers, Meg, and when I give discountrealitysites you the signal you discountrealitysites will experience the relaxation, the discountrealitysites pleasure, and the orgasm in every discountrealitysites detail, as though it were happening discountrealitysites again discountrealitysites. You will again feel the softness of discountrealitysites the bed beneath discountrealitysites you, the discountrealitysites sexy smoothness of your silk robe against freshly showered discountrealitysites skin. You will again hear my voice and relax, just discountrealitysites as you did Monday discountrealitysites. You will again discountrealitysites feel the discountrealitysites weight of my body on yours as I spread your pics legs apart and position myself between them. You discountrealitysites will again feel my kisses on discountrealitysites your thighs and your groin, my tongue touching all of discountrealitysites your private discountrealitysites parts one by discountrealitysites one. You again pics will discountrealitysites feel yourself growing more discountrealitysites and more discountrealitysites aroused, even as discountrealitysites your body relaxes under my touch, and you again will discountrealitysites react exactly as you did that day. You discountrealitysites will discountrealitysites let discountrealitysites the pleasure build inside you until you have an orgasm, and when you do that orgasm discountrealitysites will be as strong and discountrealitysites as pics satisfying as discountrealitysites any you discountrealitysites can remember having. All of this will happen discountrealitysites when I give you the signal. Do you understand, Meg?"
 "That's pics up the two of you," she replied. "You've got discountrealitysites ten or discountrealitysites fifteen minutes to kill while I finish discountrealitysites up with the others. After that, just discountrealitysites a few closing remarks and we'll call it a night."
 "Lap dance?"
 "Would you rather do discountrealitysites it now?" The other couples discountrealitysites' antics discountrealitysites had gone a long way toward easing my inhibitions; compared to Pam, what I'd set up for Meg seemed relatively tame.
 When discountrealitysites it was finally over and Meg discountrealitysites's discountrealitysites labored breathing was discountrealitysites the only sound I discountrealitysites could discountrealitysites hear, I looked around: Carol discountrealitysites, Jim, and all of our classmates were staring discountrealitysites, spellbound, at Meg's quivering form. Soon Meg opened her eyes, noticed the crowd, and realized discountrealitysites she was the discountrealitysites center of attention.
 "Me?" I mock protested . "I'm the one discountrealitysites who wanted to wait discountrealitysites until we got home, remember ?"
 "Hey. You almost home?"
 "Yes."
 I discountrealitysites almost made it, too. Within 20 discountrealitysites paces of discountrealitysites the elevators, I turned a corner discountrealitysites and ran smack into Marty, my boss.
 Big sigh. "Let discountrealitysites's do it, then."
 By Thursday afternoon Meg was thoroughly keyed up. The pizza delivery guy was right on my heels, and I was amused to see that Meg had discountrealitysites already set the table with disposable plates and cups discountrealitysites. "Quick, easy cleanup," she explained.
 We ate discountrealitysites quickly and cleaned up even more so discountrealitysites, no major feat considering all we had to do was put away the discountrealitysites leftover pizza discountrealitysites and toss discountrealitysites everything discountrealitysites into the trash can. We were underway soon discountrealitysites after, in discountrealitysites plenty of time discountrealitysites to get to class discountrealitysites.
 Part of me kept thinking about Tuesday. She'd used the word 'payback' at dinner; I wondered if discountrealitysites she had a big-time tease in discountrealitysites mind, something like what I had accidentally done to her. The idea was discountrealitysites actually a little discountrealitysites arousing, but then in a flash I had an interesting idea of my discountrealitysites own - sort of a preemptive discountrealitysites strike.
 "About half an hour discountrealitysites ago discountrealitysites," I answered sheepishly. "In the car on the discountrealitysites way here."
 I grinned and woke Meg while Pam asked a follow-up question discountrealitysites. "So discountrealitysites if you don't use discountrealitysites it, it wears discountrealitysites off after a while?"
 Carol shrugged. "Again, it depends. For most people, a couple of times a discountrealitysites week is a good idea for a discountrealitysites new trigger discountrealitysites. Once it's been well discountrealitysites established, you can probably ease off a little without losing much discountrealitysites effectiveness - say, down to once a week, and then maybe twice a discountrealitysites month. Everyone is different, circumstances change, so there's no discountrealitysites hard and fast rule. Trial and error will tell you discountrealitysites what discountrealitysites works for you.
 I could tell she was getting frustrated when I heard discountrealitysites Carol come over. "How are we doing here?"
 She kept on going, but I was too preoccupied to discountrealitysites keep processing discountrealitysites the words discountrealitysites. My mind was awhirl trying to juggle all those different memories, awarenesses and thoughts - which, I discountrealitysites would realize later, was the whole point. I kept discountrealitysites trying my best pics to remain aware of all discountrealitysites of those things while Meg spoke. Finally I gave up, dropped every thought except one: how good it felt to relax, just relax and think of nothing whatsoever discountrealitysites ...
 "... Wake pics up now, darling discountrealitysites."
 "Wake up."
 My eyes jerked open again, but it took me a second discountrealitysites or two discountrealitysites to before I could comprehend what was happening. "Wow discountrealitysites," I started discountrealitysites to say, but then I heard Meg's voice and felt myself dropping into the darkness again.
 "Not quite. Carol called a discreet break discountrealitysites when she saw me pulling your pants discountrealitysites down. They're waiting for an 'all clear' signal from us."
 "It discountrealitysites wasn't supposed to discountrealitysites turn out like it did," I explained discountrealitysites, silently begging Meg pics to forgive my latest hypnotic screw-up. "I had no idea the suggestion would discountrealitysites be that strong." Then, to Meg, I added, "I'm sorry, honey."
 "Probably. Assuming there isn 't a physical problem that would prevent it, the male discountrealitysites erection discountrealitysites is a simple matter discountrealitysites of blood flow, which is certainly something the subconscious mind can control. But you still have to watch your language - don 't just tell him to 'get discountrealitysites hard', he might just stand discountrealitysites there and clench all of discountrealitysites his muscles. Tell him that he will feel highly aroused and develop discountrealitysites a stiff, firm erection. "
 "How discountrealitysites about delaying discountrealitysites his orgasm?" My ears burned discountrealitysites as I heard Meg asking that discountrealitysites question.
 "Not really discountrealitysites. Lights out discountrealitysites, darling discountrealitysites..."
 "No you discountrealitysites won't," she said calmly . "Trust me on that one."
