Questions about Erotic Hypnosis
What is Erotic Hypnosis?
Erotic hypnosis is a broad term to describe a wide range of sexual fantasies and activities. People can use hypnosis to enhance sexual experiences by removing inhibitions, amplifying the senses, and intensifying sexual responses. We can create realistic fantasy experiences from simple tactile sensations to elaborate role-play scenes. Many people also use hypnosis to amplify feelings of sexual arousal and submission, to train slaves to be more obedient and sexually responsive.

Does Erotic Hypnosis Work?
Yes, but not the way it’s portrayed in mainstream media. Everyone responds differently. Some people experience immediate deep trance and intense arousal. Others begin with only limited responses and over time condition themselves to experience more intense arousal. Most people require practice to experience a hands-free orgasm or an orgasm on command. Trust, experience, and rapport between hypnotist and subject all factor into your response.

What does erotic hypnosis feel like?
Again, everyone’s experience is different. Some describe it as a vivid daydream, floating on air, intoxicating, captivating, thrilling or the most intensely erotic experience they’ve ever had. Many subjects enjoy being hypnotized because it enables them to feel emotionally and sexually connected to the hypnotist. Others just enjoy feeling themselves respond to the hypnotist’s desires.
How do I introduce my lover, spouse, or partner to this kink?
You can broach the subject indirectly by sharing stories, novels, movies or TV shows. Discuss what makes the scene sexy and what would make it even sexier. Because the discussion is about fictional characters, it’s all hypothetical. So it provides a safe, impersonal way to introduce the kink and gauge their response.

How can I learn erotic hypnosis?
Read my book (when it eventually comes out) and practice.
Questions about Hypnosis in General
Can anyone be hypnotized?
Nearly everyone. Some medications and medical conditions that affect the brain may inhibit the ability to enter trance as well as the ability to retain suggestions. However, the literature on this subject is scarce and inconsistent.In fact, most people briefly put themselves in a trance once or twice per day. But different people respond to different techniques, or different types of suggestions. Some people respond better to direct physical suggestions like “raise your arm.” Other people respond better to indirect or emotional suggestions like “feel your arm become light enough to float.” I include a broad spectrum of suggestions in my recordings so they will be enjoyable for everyone.
Can a person be hypnotized against their will or without their knowledge?
Not if they are actively resisting. But there are several covert techniques for seducing or tricking someone into a trance. Many hypnofetishists find these covert hypnosis especially erotic. So they will often allow themselves to be seduced when recognizing the technique. This falls under the category of Consensual Non-Consent.
Will a hypnotized person do anything they are told?
A hypnotized person will do anything that feels good or seems to be in their best interest. They will also go out of their way to please the hypnotist. But they generally won’t do anything that violates their core beliefs or puts themselves in danger.
How can I go deeper?
Practice. By entering trance frequently, you train and condition your mind to enter deeper and deeper trances. It is the same as a runner who trains for a marathon. He starts with a short run, followed by progressively longer runs until he builds up the stamina for the full-length marathon. (Also, make sure you turn off your cell phone and make sure you won’t be disturbed during the trance.)
You can also practice several component skills, like focusing your attention, listening, and visualizing. For more on this, read How to Become a Better Hypnotic Subject.
How long do post-hypnotic suggestions last?
This varies from person to person and from suggestion to suggestion. Some people only retain suggestions until the end of a session. Others retain the suggestions for days or weeks. The more often suggestions are repeated, and the more pleasure that you derive from the suggestions, the longer you will retain them. With enough repetition and reinforcement, they can be made essentially permanent.
Can you hypnotize someone while chatting on the INTERNET?
Yes. It’s not as effective as an audio file or an in-person session. But it is possible. It works the same as reading a book. As you read the words, you visualize in your mind what the hypnotist is describing. The more vividly you visualize this, the deeper the trance.
The basic problem with this type of induction is the lack of feedback between hypnotist and subject. The hypnotist is unable to see the subject’s face. So they have to guess at how well the subject is responding. There is also a risk of getting disconnected without knowing it, leaving the hypnotist, the subject, or both waiting for a response that will never come.
How can I remove or erase hypnotic suggestions?
It’s not necessary to remove or erase hypnotic suggestions or triggers. Like normal thoughts, suggestions and triggers will fade over time if not constantly reinforced. To make them fade quicker, change your environment. Get away from the computer, go for a walk, play more music, or adopt a puppy.
