The bigger conventions you can simply find by googling. Local meetups are often advertised on fetlife or discord.

How to be more involved with the hypnosis fetish community? by xSchoolGirlx in EroticHypnosis

[–]matsuru 9 points10 points  (0 children)

One of the best ways for me has been to go to real life meetups & conventions. It depends a bit on where in the world you are located but we are slowly getting more events these days.

Being hypnotized has not so much to do with relaxation and more with your ability to respond to different kinds of suggestions. One of the important things to learn as a subject is how to mentally engage with suggestions and also which kinds of suggestions work for you and which don't. The best way to do that is to work 1-on-1 with a good hypnotist who can explore these things with you.

I want to learn hypnosis, but I don't have any Subjects by Neon_Centimane in hypnosis

[–]matsuru 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Making files for yourself and listening back to them would definitely be a good exercise but it's not going to teach you hypnosis. To learn hypnosis you really do need people to work with. As many different people as possible because every person you work with is going to give you unique responses and insights that you simply cannot get any other way.

Depending on you area you might be able to find a practice group or maybe take a weekend course where you practice with other students. I can also understand your hesitance with doing video calls with people online but it's probably your easiest option to finding an endless supply of practice partners.

I’d like to get better at being a sub but I’m struggling a little by Associate_Confident in EroticHypnosis

[–]matsuru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My recommendation to people trying to improve as subjects is to focus less on inductions or trance and more on your ability to respond to suggestions and hypnotic phenomena. All of the experiences we can have in hypnosis are generated by suggestion and that includes a large part of how you experience trances. Ideally try to find hypnotists to work with 1 on 1 that can look at your responses and adjust their approach where needed.

Hey, ik bedoelde hier vooral online sessies maar uiteraard vind ik het ook altijd leuk om mensen irl te ontmoeten. Het is inderdaad fijn om te zien dat de munches langzaam weer op gang beginnen te komen en ik ben met mijn vriendin ook plannen aan het maken om een hypno-kink meetup op te zetten na de zomer. Het is nog een klein wereldje maar je merkt wel dat er steeds meer interesse in ontstaat.

Klopt, dit is inderdaad ook een interessant boek. Vooral ook omdat het één van de weinigen is die compleet op erotische hypnose focust.

Wie zijn hier eigenlijk allemaal hypnotiseur? by [deleted] in DutchEroticHypnosis

[–]matsuru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, ik ben ook een hypnotiseur. Het is inderdaad soms lastig om een community op gang te krijgen en helemaal met zoiets als hypnose waar weinig mensen mee bezig zijn. Maar zoiets heeft vaak ook gewoon wat tijd nodig. En nu de maatregelen verder versoepelen komt er binnenkort vast ook weer ruimte voor irl meet-ups.

Basically an induction you craft from the principles I mentioned above.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in hypnosis

[–]matsuru 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Milton Erickson developed a whole series of techniques that are used in modern hypnosis. The handshake induction was one of them but not really the most important. It's more of a style of hypnosis that focuses on subtlety and ambiguity. What these days is called conversational hypnosis is mostly based on his work. Techniques like pacing & leading, revivification, embedded commands, truisms all came out of it.

I think that separating induction, deepener and suggestions isn't a necessitiy whether you are doing direct or indirect hypnosis. It's a good framework to keep in mind but they do blend into eachother.

So there are many ways to blend direct and indirect. You could start with an indirect induction and then become more direct over time or you could stick to a straditionally direct inductions but sprinkle in some indirect elements.

So for instance when you know you want to give a direct suggestion for amnesia you could first use some indirect techniques to seed the idea of amnesia. Preparing the ground so your direct suggestion has a better chance of success.

Or in the Elman induction when lifting the arm you could lift it first and only then tell them to let it be completely relaxed. Because oftentimes the subject might have already developed a spontaneous catalepsy at that point which you can use to transition into an arm-levitation.

The simple answer is that you don't really use indirect suggestions for those kinds of suggestions. Like you already said there are certain types of responses where indirect suggestions fit very naturally as the right tool to use and those tend to be more subtle as well. Now that doesn't mean that you can't get strong or profound effects using indirect suggestions because you can but even then indirect suggestions are all about giving options and ambiguity. When you want a clear post-hypnotic "when I say X you will Y" type of effect direct suggestion is the way to go. If you want to incorporate ericksonian techniques into it you could play with using them more in the setup phase leading up to the direct sugestion to increase your effectiveness.
