What Is Erotic Hypnosis?

Read this article to understand how erotic hypnosis works, the difference between erotic hypnosis and sexual hypnosis, and the qualities of a good hypnotist

When people hear of hypnosis, some imagine oscillators and pendulums going back and forth. Other people imagine that hypnosis involves losing your mind. And when people hear of erotic, most people imagine orgasms. Lynn et al. (1991) noted that there is no single definition of what hypnosis means. Erotic hypnosis is a non-clinical therapy that can guide you into a trance-like space into arousals and sometimes hands-free orgasms. The point of erotic hypnosis is that sex starts from the mind. The hypnosis gets into your mind and helps you get into a space where you are no longer inhibited and can therefore say anything you want to say.

How Erotic Hypnosis Works

Erotic hypnosis is similar to meditation. You are supposed to declutter your mind and leave it empty so that your imagination and feelings may fill it. The session will not work if you have health concerns about your sex life, e.g., sexual dysfunction. Erotic hypnosis is for healthy people who want to have more confidence sexually. Or want to have orgasms without being touched. The hypnotist works based on the belief that sex starts with the mind. 

Kroger (2008) stated that hypnosis has nothing to do with intelligence. The hypnotist will guide you into unconsciousness known as the trance regardless of whether you are creative or not creative. While in this state, you will be able to be yourself without inhibitions. You will answer questions honestly without holding anything back because you'll feel free. Pintar et al. (2009) concluded that you will remember everything that you said while in trance. Therefore, you must find yourself a hypnotist who has a nice voice and who's patient enough not to rush you into what they want you to say. You'll also need the hypnotist to be someone you can trust. Even though you cannot answer things you do not want in hypnotherapy, you still do not want a hypnotist who can use your words against you. It should be a safe environment.

The Difference between Erotic Hypnosis and Sexual Hypnosis

Sexual hypnosis and erotic hypnosis may seem like the same thing, and some people do use the terms interchangeably, but they would be wrong to think that they are referring to the same thing. Erotic hypnosis involves the here and now a sexual pleasure, and it's common during BDSM, where the hypnotist is usually the dominatrix. It gives them control. It is important to note that the dominatrix may be someone you hired or your partner. On the other hand, the sexual hypnotist is a therapist who intends to guide the client through their mental and sexual issues to be sexually okay. The results of the erotic hypnotism session are temporary and meant for that moment only, but the results of the sexual hypnotism are supposed to be long-term. It is worth noting that sexual hypnosis does not intend to help you cure health issues such as erectile dysfunction. You'll need a doctor for that. But sometimes, you will need a sexual hypnotist if your sexual issues have been solved. Your physical problem may be over, but the hypnotist helps you deal with sexual issues such as pain during sex. The hypnotist will fill your subconscious mind with thoughts that benefit you sexually. Some sexual problems are psychological, and that's when you need a sexual hypnotist and not an erotic hypnotist. Besides, sex starts in the mind.

The Connection between Erotic Hypnosis, BDSM, ASMR, and Audio porn

Erotic hypnosis is popular in the BDSM community. BDSM means sex with one or some of the following aspects - bondage or dominance, sadism, and masochism. The hypnotist may be a dominatrix you hired, or your partner can play that role. The hypnotist has a sense of control when they can get into your subconscious mind and control your thought process. 

Erotic hypnosis is also connected with ASMR (autonomous sensory meridian response). ASMR is a euphoric feeling from certain sounds or from watching some types of videos. Erotic hypnosis is an experience that evokes your mind and senses, and it's, therefore, no surprise that you'd get the same reaction while listening and watching ASMR.

Audio porn describes sexual experiences erotically. Audio porn is pornography that will involve your sense of hearing and your imagination. 

Erotic hypnosis is majorly about arousals. You get into the session knowing that you hope to get aroused, even if orgasm may not be the main goal. The session will involve your thoughts and your sense of hearing, and that is the connection be Erotic hypnosis, BDSM, ASMR, and audio porn.

Qualities of a Good Erotic Hypnotist

You do not invite anyone into your subconscious mind unless you know that a hypnotic experience with them will be fruitful. You'll have to find someone recommended to you or someone experienced in the job. Or your partner. 

An erotic hypnotist is good if they have the following qualities;

They are Organized

The hypnotist should invite you into an environment that is physically organized. You cannot focus if you are distracted by cats flying all over chasing rats...the place has to be silent, and the ambiance must be good enough for a hypnosis session. The organization is not restricted to the physical environment only. The hypnotist must mentally be organized so that they can guide your mind systematically. They should have a starting point towards the goal. Your mind will get into a trance only if the hypnotist is organized.

Should be patient

The hypnotist should not be in a hurry. If the hypnotist is not patient, it's unlikely that your mind will get into a subconscious state. You will not have a chance to declutter your mind. The session will be a flop.

The Hypnotist Should Have a Nice Voice

Your sense of hearing is the most powerful sense during the session, and if the voice you are listening to is cranky and boring, chances are you'll be consciously awake throughout the session.

Conclusion

You can involve erotic hypnosis in bringing some spice into your sex life. It may even be foreplay. After the session, even if it doesn't end with an orgasm, most people feel aroused and excited. Over the years, people have dismissed hypnosis as unreal or magic. Some people do not understand how a person can choose to drift from the real world into a trance. However, hypnosis depends on your willingness to allow the hypnotist to guide you into subconsciousness. It must be bliss if your hypnotist is your partner so that the session may end with a happy ending.
