Welcome!

Welcome to my corner of the world. I'm a man in my thirties. I've been slowly adding hypnosis to my toolkit in relationships with submissive women. It took me years of mostly frustration to get to this point. I've had a number of dom/sub relationships, both short or long term. Some were quite successful, while others not at all. However, I've also met some women who, while they wanted to be submissive and claimed to be submissive, couldn't succeed at being submissive. As soon as they reached a level of discomfort, whether from pain, embarrassment, or just lack of control, they would immediately reject and withdrawal from the current activity. This is not a case of limits pushed to far; these women would insist both before and after that they really wanted to do the activity. I came to think of it as a mental gag reflex. Since I'm looking for complete, willing submission, this caused a problem.

I've learned lately that this mental gag reflex is a response of the conscious mind. Whether through learned response, inhibition, shyness, or embarrassment, the conscious mind often can step in and block full submission. This is where hypnosis begins.

Through hypnosis, I've found that the subconscious mind can override the conscious mind's hangups and reach a much deeper level of submission. As an added bonus, some posthypnotic suggestions can create levels of domination that would not be possible otherwise. I'll get into both of these ideas more as I continue to post.

Before I go further, let me crush the dreams of a few of you. I only hypnotize willing subjects after fully discussing the upcoming session. Hypnosis will not make someone who's not interested in you your slave, and will not change anyone's morals or personality. OK, you can change personality for a short time, but that's really just role playing, right?

I'd also like to acknowledge Hypnomaster D from BDSM Hypnosis and Lex from Hypnosexy. I've thoroughly enjoyed reading both blogs, and they inspired me to transcribe some of my experiences. I will use a slightly different format, as I won't have any subs posting (at least not yet).
