You’re interested in hypnosis, and you want to hypnotize your partner, for many possible reasons. There’s lots of tips and blog posts, but nothing makes any sense and it’s all overwhelming and you’re terrified that you’ll try and fail.

It’s okay. You’re not alone. Everyone was where you are now. There is a plan. This guide will take you from being a newbie to being a hypnotist.

Don’t worry if you don’t know anything about hypnosis to begin with. After you go through this plan, you’ll be in a good place to do more, but this is all about getting familiar, getting comfortable, and having fun.

This guide is organized into several sections to teach you the basics of hypnosis.

To begin with, we’ll start with the overall stuff common to every hypnosis session: how to behave, how to bring up the topic with your partner, negotiation, and managing risks in hypnosis.

Then, we’ll go into the theory of hypnosis, explaining some of the underlying psychological mechanisms and talking about how to make hypnosis more effective.

Finally, we’ll go through several stages of practice to build up your comfort level and expertise using different inductions and get familiar with a basic framework of hypnotic sessions.

Don’t worry about understanding all of this at once. If you get a general sense of the components, that’s all you need for now, as you can follow the practical exercises without having to refer back to this page.

While this guide is safe for work, it does have links to material that may assume erotic hypnosis and/or kink. Please use your discretion, and do not read this if you are underage or in an inappropriate place or situation.
