Ch 1, Helen
The story starts with an ad I posted on Craigslist.
My ad read:
_________________________________________
Seeking Mature Woman For Erotic Hypnosis
"Are you experienced in or wondering about erotic hypnosis? I want to find a mature woman that would like to explore erotic hypnosis as a partner. Erotic hypnosis can help make you aware of your likes, dislikes, fantasies, and desires. Everything would be safe, sane, consensual and stay within your limits. I would like to meet in a safe location to get acquainted and then only meet for hypnosis if we both agree. I do not care what your size, shape, age, race, or appearance is - this is really about personality and exploration. Maybe you have things you always wanted to learn about your self, maybe you would like to explore things that would make you a better partner for your spouse? Let's work together to learn about ourselves. Email if you are interested."

Two women answered my ad. Their names were Helen and Chelle. The ladies didn't know each other, although they knew of each other. Both had been the subject of erotic hypnosis and while Helen wanted to be the subject again, Chelle wanted to try being the Master (or in her case, the Mistress). This is the story of Helen.
HELEN'S STORY
I talked with Helen by phone three times and exchanged emails many more. She came to trust me and invited me to meet at her house for a first face to face talk. She greeted me in the mid-afternoon, dressed in casual blue skirt and a pearl gray sweater. Helen was fifty-six and stood about five feet, seven and it appeared she weighed a slender one hundred forty pounds. She was not overly curvy, but she did have her curves in nice places.
For at least an hour, we talked about past experiences and both positive and negative memories. Helen was up front that her interest in erotic hypnosis stems from a very inhibited and uptight youth and childhood. Her parents actively forbade masturbation, young dating, or any intimate behavior.
Her inhibitions had caused problems in her marriage. In fact, she and her husband had once separated, and although they had reconciled, theirs was not the tender, loving partnership either would have preferred. As a matter of survival, Helen and her husband had essentially developed an open relationship, though 'open' described his life more than hers.
Helen had realized that her previous experience with erotic hypnosis had helped her manage her inhibitions better during the period she was involved in it and that it benefited her marriage. She wanted to use the openness of her marriage to benefit it and yet, she preferred to not experience intercourse in her hypnosis, at least as far as she could foresee at that time.
We began talking about what play scenes Helen wanted to try, and why she wanted the scene. It has only happened to me a few times, but it is highly erotic to sit and talk with a woman as she talks in great detail about intimate descriptions of her body while she is fully dressed. Helen was driving me to distraction with detailed descriptions of her breasts, nipples, pubic hair pattern, labia, anus, and everything else. She also discussed sexual acts she wanted to experience that had me as hard as a rock. She wanted to become more comfortable with oral sex (both giving and receiving), anal sex, masturbation, voyeurism, exhibitionism, and using sex toys.
Helen knew that hypnosis doesn't trick a person into doing something they would not be willing to do, but rather the hypnosis helps a person control or even reduce inhibitions about something they are willing, but usually afraid, to do. In erotic play, the subject's mind tends to play the game that the decision is really the responsibility of someone else so they don't feel guilty.
She asked if I had actually hypnotized others, and how I do it. I assured her that I had indeed hypnotised people and that my most common method was to talk a person through a guided meditation while they are reclining in a chair or laying down. I employ safe words throughout all play time. Red means stop, yellow means pause and reconsider, and green indicates everything is okay.
After we had talked, I moved from the chair I was using to sit on the sofa next to Helen. "Helen, do you mind if I do some testing of how we stand? Of course, the safe words are in effect."
"Sure, Gus, I don't mind."
"Tell me, Helen, what type and color panties are you wearing today?"
Helen paused to recall what she was wearing and answered "Bikini style mesh, sort of a nude color." There was almost no blushing on her cheeks and I smiled at her to reassure her that I appreciated her openness.
I calmly asked "Helen, could you please lift your skirt and show me your panties?"
Helen looked at me as she reached for the hem of her skirt, however just as she began to lift it, she blushed wildly, dropped her skirt, and said "I'm sorry, I can't - - I want to, but I just can't."
"It's fine, I understand. Does your bra match your panties? Are they a matched set?"
"Yes, a sheer mesh that is basically a nude color."
"Helen, may I feel your breasts?" I asked, and after a brief pause, she nodded. I slowly and gently raised my hand to her left breast and merely cupped it. My caress lasted only about five seconds, I was only trying to gauge Helen's comfort with this act. "Thank you, dear, you have a lovely body and I appreciate that you trusted me so much."
After a moment's pause, I continued "Helen, would you please unbutton your sweater and show me your bra?"
Almost immediately, a blush raised up Helen's neck and spread across her cheeks, she stammered "No, no, I can't right now. I really do want to, but I just can't bring myself ..." as a small tear began to gather in the corner of her eye.
"No problem, I understand" I offered "after all you are interested in this because you know you would like to overcome your fears. Would you like to try some hypnosis? We could limit the scene to only some nudity, no sexual activity."
"Yes, I'd like to try it now. And if we limit it to nudity and perhaps touching, I can be happy with that," Helen answered.
"That sounds fine. Here, sit back in the recliner. I am going to get a lap blanket to help you get warm and comfie" I directed as I guided her to the chair and laid an afghan on her legs and up to her waist. I turned the lights off so that the room was only indirectly, but adequately, lit by the sunlight coming through the blinds.
