kink, hypnosis, training, practicality //
the thing about using hypnosis to sculpt me in fun ways
is that, especially at first, I expect it would take very frequent repetitions! like, "every day", probably both morning and evening
not all of thst would need to have direct contact w/ the organizer or even hypnosis (e. g. I could meditate)
like in the context of an friends who do fun kink scenes online, doing something hypnotic once per week would be really wonderful & a substantial commitment

w/r/t hypnosis itself… I'm just not all that suggestible (yet?). It's enough to have fun & elevate a scene beyond merely roleplay
like, 100+ hours of practicing being hypnotized would be a great start
I'm remembering a delightful & also kind of frustrating week spent living with a hypnotist who spent multiple days of that week trying to come up with a clever induction framing for me where I wanted to iterate on raw hours of practice… we broke up.

@lioness I think putting in the time to practice isn't enough. Practice for us was like: gradual improvement, plateau, finding the thing that leads to a breakthrough, repeat. You need to have a strategy that helps you find the breakthroughs, or you're likely to get stuck at a plateau.

@madewokherd yes; there's a huge difference between merely doing something vs. deliberately practicing it, and another huge difference between trying to figure something out on your own vs. being taught/trained/coached by someone who is already familiar with the end goal & the common pitfalls along the way.
