Coin Technique for Hypnotic Induction

Instructions:
1. Extend arm about even shoulder, palms up
2. Place quarter in ulnar edge of hand
Please fix your eyes as long as they are open upon
the coin. Notice how it shines brightly, reflecting
the lights from the room. I will start counting.
With each count, the hand will tire, Fatigue, and
turn a little until soon the coin will fall off.
When the coin falls, your eyes will close if they are not
already shut, and you will become completely relaxed. The
arm will fall as if it were a dead weight. The other
muscles of the body will relax completely.
