I am a certified master hypnotist and this blog is to explore my interest in hypnosis and other dominant / submissve kinks. NO MINORS

Any tips for subjects seeking memory play? Can never quite get it to work (as a subject), the trigger or memory is always in the back of my mind

I want to make sure I fully understand.... you're the subject and you want to know if I have any advice for you, as the subject, to be more receptive to memory play suggestions? 

If that is the case, I'd say that it might be better for me to be offering advice to your hypnotist, or you might be better working with someone else, even just to see if that makes a difference. Or are you just listening to recordings?  

I’m also curious what specific memory play you feel is not working? Is it the simple 'forget the number 4' or 'forget your name' or are you talking about more complex issues, or even generating memories, etc? 

Feel free to give me more specifics and I'd be happy to go into this a bit deeper. And thanks for the question!

do you ever hypnotize people? if you do are they ever people from here?

I do hypnotize people.... all the time! I really only hypnotize females, as even if it's not in a sexual way, that is my interest. I have not ever hypnotized someone from here in person, but have done online work with a few subjects I enjoy working with.

[night-for-day]

and i guess maybe a follow up question would be what is the difficulty level of putting a hypnotist in a trance? i know it would depend on the person, but just curious to get some insight

When it comes to hypnotizing a hypnotist, the general answer is it is usually much easier.  This is because they themselves have often had a lot of (or at least some) experience being a subject, because many certification programs actually require that a hypnotist has experienced trance, so they can better understand the process.  

However, as with everything in hypnosis, a lot depends on the person.  The famous British hypnotist Derren Brown talks about the fact that he is a terrible subject and has almost never been in trance.

For me personally, there is a close sexual connection to hypnosis, so I’m in that same camp of almost never, but obviously for my own personal reasons.

Hope that all makes sense! Feel free to ask anything.... always happy to chat about this fun subject! (no pun intended!!)

[night-for-day]

from what i understand, it's easier to hypnotize subjects who have been previously hypnotized, because they are expecting to fall under, right? and in group shows where the subjects are put to sleep one by one we see that once again the expectation of what is about to happen makes it easier to hypnotize. so i'm wondering if having watched many hypnotization videos would also have the same effect? would it be easier for someone to put me in a trance compared to someone who never watches this content?

What a great and interesting question! 

You're quite right that, if you're working with a group, it's always best to identify the best subject and rearrange the order so that they are the first to go under, allowing others to gain trust and belief, which are two of the most important elements in hypnosis.

So, in that sense, having seen a number of shows and knowing that hypnosis is real, what is 'expected' and that it works and what WILL happen, if of great benefit.

However, the other aspect of it being easier to work with someone who’s been under before is that they have that unique feeling in their ‘bones’.  I’m often asked, ‘what is it going to feel like’ and of course, there are a feeling of trance has similarities, but each person’s experience is unique.  So, when dealing with someone who has, themselves been under, they know EXACTLY the feeling and all you have to do is to tell them that they feel that same feeling returning, and they are already 70% there.

Another topic that has come up is the ‘hypnotic sigh’ - the audible release of air, moan, or even slurred speech - that sometimes occurs when a subject goes into trance. 

What is it, what does it mean and why does it happen?!

Well, as you might have guessed, it is a sign of complete and total relaxation, a physical manifestation of the body giving in, as the mind surrenders as well.  

It most often occurs when a subject is put under quickly and in a way not expected, such as an instant induction or confusion / distraction drop, but it can also simply be a natural part of a particular subject going into trance.  As I so often say when answering questions about hypnosis, so much is dependent on the individual.  

As you can see in that one example of the girl in the green shirt, if a subject is in the middle of talking and gets put under unexpectedly, they can often exhibit slurred speech, nonsensical words or in this case, an honest reaction to the amazing feeling of going deeply into hypnosis, as she exclaims…. ‘Ohhhh’!! The mouth continuing to work, even as the conscious mind has surrendered to hypnosis.... truly the subconscious speaking.

I’d love to hear about any experiences you’ve had with this, either as a subject or a hypnotist!

[night-for-day]

I’ve been asked recently about hypnotic ‘flops’, the two most common questions being:  

Why does it happen to some and not others?  

And, does it mean that person is deeper in hypnosis than those that do not relax so completely?

As you might expect, the answer to the first question is that everyone is different, and each person responds to the profound relaxation of hypnosis in their own unique way.  Even with these examples, you can see there are variations…. those that collapse completely, those that have a sharp surprised reaction, etc.

The answer to the second question is more complicated.  In general, those that become more relaxed and ‘let go’ are in a deeper trance, however, just because someone doesn’t have their legs buckle, this does not mean they are not deeply hypnotized.  Again, it’s a very personal experience, but it is safe to say that those who do relax so totally are usually very deeply under.

There are two things worth noting:  The more trust a subject has in you as a hypnotist, the more likely they are to completely let go.

The second is that often times a shock induction - an action that comes out of the blue, that the person does not expect, even if the person knows ‘something’ is going to happen to hypnotize them - can result in these kinds of drops.  So hypnotists, keep this in mind when you are doing a shock induction, especially on a new subject.  I’ve seen some not so experienced or vigilant hypnotists let a subject crash to the ground with disastrous consequences.  

Lastly, I know someone is going to ask why these people that flop into the pool won’t drown.  Remember, hypnosis is not unconsciousness!  If a dog or cat jumps on the lap of your subject (as I had happen a few nights ago!), they are very likely going to snap out of trance.  If they fall into a pool, that result is 100% certain!!

Although hypnosis is very subject dependent, the hypnotist, their style, how they induce trance and how, and if, they deepen it, is something not talked about often. I'll speak more about this specifically in another post, but this particular hypnotist incorporates a great deal of very heavy fractionation, often driving subjects into a place of much deeper hypnosis.

This clips is interesting because you can see the girl in the upper right has been put into such a deep state of hypnosis that even when 'awake', she is still very deeply hypnotized.

This type of 'waking trance' results in the subject being highly receptive to suggestions given directly at this time without any other 'trance' or anchor. So whatever the hypnotist says becomes reality at that moment. This type of state is also often visible when initially putting s subject under, and you can see they have entered a hypnotic trance, even though it might appear to others that they are still in process.

Either way, enjoy this girl dropping completely under, even though she is obviously deeply hypnotized the whole time!

[night-for-day]

Confidence, Command and Clarity is everything in hypnosis.  I see so many amateur hypnotists struggle with these 3 things, so I may actually write a separate piece on it, and specifically what I'm talking about, but for now, here is a great example of all of them.

In this induction, the hypnotist tells the girl he is about to take her hand.  And that when he does take her hand, her eyes will close, she will drop back and she will go into a deep hypnotic sleep.  

And guess what?  She does.  Why?  Because she has been told it WILL happen.  Sometimes - most the time - that is 80% of what it takes to be an effective hypnotist.

Very hot girl going under. Her actual comments about being hypnotized were:

"I could hear everything that was going on but I never had any control over my body. I can’t remember certain bits so think I must have been asleep". And - "Amazing, [experience] still can’t get over it!"

I always love hearing girls talk about how they felt while under. Something very sexy about knowing they heard everything but had no control at all.

[night-for-day]

Always fantastic to see a girl hypnotized in the audience.  Most of us have seen this clip, but I thought I’d add a few insights:  

When initially brought out of trance, she’s wide awake and clearly surprised. and a bit embarrassed, but is primed to go under again from having heard the suggestions given to those on stage.  The hypnotist drops her, and it’s obvious she is deeply under and completely open to additional suggestions.  

Here’s where it gets interesting:  She is then given a suggestion that when woken, she will stand like a solider and march to the stage.  When this happens, you can see she is still deeply under and is simply following the suggestion while remaining in trance, and will likely have no recollection of this later.  When a subject is as receptive as she is (most likely a level 3 or 4 somnambulist) this type of response is common, where the subject carries out tasks but has no memory of it later, and is usually characterized by the blank look she has, even when she sits down.

Side note: this particular well known hypnotist always has a thing for girls behaving like soldiers and also strapping on ice skates…..Each to his own!

Blonde hypnotist hypnotize herself with a watch

[night-for-day]

This whole clip is fantastic, but there is a brief moment worth noting. 

One of the reasons eye fixation inductions are so effective is that the eyes naturally try to stay open, but as we pump the subject full of suggestions that they are getting heavy, this causes a natural flutter to start.  This is caused by the struggle between the conscious mind trying to keep the eyes open and the subconscious acting on the suggestion.  As this happens, it starts the process of REM, opening the door to trance, as the mind is visualizing the suggestions and the subconscious now starts taking over.  

You can clearly see all this happening with her.  As she starts to be overcome by the watch, the eyes flutter rapidly each time they blink.  But a very seminal moment occurs right when her eyes close fully: When they do, you can see she is in a state of full REM trance, but then her eyes pop open once more, very briefly, just from muscle memory.  At this point, you can see her eyes clearly moving and visualizing, and then they go completely crossed and flutter closed as she goes fully under.

So stunning. Obviously she has already been put under many times and possibly even fractionated. Still, something so hot about the girl, the outfit, her stomach showing, and her complete and total hypnotic submission.

[night-for-day]

Fair show specialist Mark Yuzuik giving a great demonstration of a confusion / shock induction. People watching think it's just for comedy when he keeps asking her name, but here's what he's really up to: 

By saying her name incorrectly, he forces her to listen closely to exactly what he’s saying.  Then, as she concentrates on repeating her name, she enters into repetitive behavior.  When he suddenly hits her with the sleep command, he not only breaks the pattern - pattern interrupt - but since she is so tuned into what he is saying, it ensures the command goes straight to her subconscious, overriding any ability to resist, and putting her deeply under instantly.  

Note the physical response that is often common in this type of induction where the arms flail as the nerves of the body are still responding to the shock and surprise, even though the brain has already entered hypnosis.

Small break from all the hypno posts to say this!! SO SO true!

[hypnogirlgifs]

Blonde hypnotized

[night-for-day]

This is actually an example of the Spiegel Eye Roll Test being used as an induction.  I’ve done this test on quite a few subjects and when I see them responding like this girl, it’s easy to simply drop them into trance (of course assuming you already have consent!).  

The reason why this works so well is that when the body enters a state of REM sleep, the eyes roll way up ( or in some rare cases, down).  A hypnotic trance is almost identical to REM sleep in terms of how the brain is functioning, so by artificially putting the eyes in this position, it sends a physical tigger to the brain that it should be entering this state, so from there it’s quite easy to induce hypnosis.

As this girl follows the finger back with her eyes, they roll back, she starts to go under, and then the quick push backward, provides the feeling of dropping, and she goes under instantly.

[night-for-day]

Ever notice that before an induction, hypnotists often take the arm of a subject and shake it around? There's several good reasons for this. Seeing how loose it is gives an idea of how relaxed the subject already is, and also, crucially, how willing to follow a hypnotists instruction they are, and how far they are able to let themselves go. 

The girl here goes deeply and totally under.  The hypnotist uses this ‘loose and floppy test’, and combines it with an eye fixation.  Lastly, the downward drop of the arm creates a feeling of dropping down to the subject, and if they are suggestible, this will cause them to continue all the way down into trance.

[hypnogirlz]

[night-for-day]

Two fun things to consider here:  

The first is, as a hypnotist, you can tell that the moment the girl in red has her arm lifted and looks directly at the hypnotist, she is under.  The movement of the arm, as well as her hyper fixation, followed by the quick movement / pull of the arm (a version of a pattern interrupt induction, often used in conjunction with the eye fixation, as it is here) puts her deeply and completely under.  

The other fun thing is girl on the right is clearly completely enthralled watching her friend get so deeply hypnotized!  Always love to see that enthusiastic response!
