Getting Started with Erotic Hypnosis

Getting Started with Erotic Hypnosis

Erotic hypnosis is a growing genre of erotic entertainment. But people also use it to shape the mental aspects of their sexuality, and to enhance dominance and submission training. The wide variety of fantasies and applications sometimes confuses and intimidates beginners. So lets start with a definition and a few basics.

What is Erotic Hypnosis

Hypnosis is any process that helps us enter trance. Studies have shown that arousal is a type of trance where we allow our awareness to follow the rhythm of physical sensations until they overwhelm us with pleasure.1 When we share this rhythm with a lover it engages the mirror neurons in our brains, amplifying our emotional responses to those sensations, creating desire, intimacy, and passion.

Although most people get to this arousal trance through direct physical stimulation (e.g., kissing and caressing), or watching porn, we can also get there through guided visualization, neuro-lingustic language patterns, and shared excitement. This is erotic hypnosis.

How we Enjoy Erotic Hypnosis

Everyone has their own reasons for trying hypnosis, and many of us create our own techniques. From simply sharing arousal and excitement, to improving sex with real-life lovers. From enhancing D/s relationships to complete personality transformations. We each find our own ways to use hypnosis to enhance our sexual pleasure and explore our erotic fantasies.

Entertainment

Many people listen to erotic hypnosis audio and video files for the same reasons other people read romance novels, watch porn, or listen to other types of erotic audio. As I mentioned in my article on that subject, listening to erotic audio files helps us invoke the arousal and excitement we enjoy feeling. But hypnosis enables us to go deeper into the fantasy. An imaginative hypnotist can create elaborate fantasy scenes in the virtual reality of the mind. The subject can then experience an erotic kidnap fantasy, sex in a Victorian art studio, in a dungeon, or on a secluded beach.

Hypnotic language can elicit sensory memories, such as the feeling of being kissed or caressed. Recalling these memories while in a trance, can make you feel them all over again. So a hypnotized person can experience all the physical sensations and sexual pleasure that they would with a real-life lover.

Audio files are especially good for those fantasies that strike us as intensely erotic, but too dangerous to experience for real (such as erotic brainwashing, mind control, and forced arousal fantasies) or fantasies that are impossible to make real (vampire and magical seduction fantasies).

Sexual Enhancement and Health

Erotic hypnosis is great for exploring and enhancing our sexuality. Inhibitions are often caused by conflicting desires. These conflicts can prevent you from entering the mental state which makes sex pleasurable. With hypnosis, you can resolve the conflict, enjoy deeper arousal and more intense pleasure.

Anticipating pleasure or intimacy is one of the key elements in sexual desire. The more you enjoy sex, the more you look forward to it. And visa versa. Anticipation makes the body produce hormones contribute to arousal and pleasure. So hypnosis can not only increase your sex drive, but also make sex more enjoyable.

Dominance and submission (D/s)

This is a type of erotic power exchange where one person willingly surrenders their will to another in exchange for sexual pleasure and/or an emotional bond. Many hypnosis fantasies include a D/s component. Thanks to the comic books and TV shows I mentioned earlier, many people see hypnotic domination as a way to take control of a lover’s sexual desires and responses. As many submissives say, “seduce my mind, and my body will follow”.

Hypnosis also provides a natural complement to other D/s activities, such as submission and obedience training and petplay. During D/s sessions, submissives enter a frame of mind called subspace. This is the frame of mind in which a sub is receptive to being sexually controlled and trained. In this state of mind, the submissive feels emotionally connected to their dom. Hypnosis can enhance these feelings to the point where a sub can actually feel a dominant’s will moving their body or influencing their thoughts. This can create intense feelings of belonging and intimacy.

Role Play and Personality Transformation

We all imagine ourselves as someone else. Reading a book or watching a movie, we imagine what we would do in the hero’s situation. We imagine ourselves as comic book superheroes, spies, soldiers, politicians, teachers, sorcerers, etc. It’s normal, it’s healthy, it stimulates our creativity, and it adds variety to otherwise routine activities.

Roleplay (including supernatural roleplay) and personality transformations are a natural extension of these playful imaginings. Hypnosis enhances them by helping you get into character, and stay in it. You can get into the character’s frame of mind, thinking and feeling like they would. This makes the scene feel more realistic and more intensely erotic.

Most transformations only last the length of a scene. But some people, like transgendered women and guys with bimbo transformation fetishes, use erotic hypnosis to effect more permanent changes.

 

Why You Should Try Erotic Hypnosis

French philosopher, Henri Bergson wrote, “To exist is to change, to change is to mature, to mature is to go on creating oneself endlessly.” We continue to create ourselves and evolve with each decision and experience. Our sexuality is an important aspect of who we are. So it is important to explore and develop as sensual and sexual beings.

Some people grow by exploring fantasies, trying new activities, discovering what you like and what you don’t. Others grow by improving existing skills or developing new ones. Doms grow by improving their ability to train their subs. Subs grow by improving their ability to obey, serve and give pleasure. And writers, like me, grow by writing in different genres and developing types of characters.

Whether you want to increase your sex drive, train your mind for submission, or just explore a fantasy, erotic hypnosis can be an means of self-exploration.
