Table of contents What is erotic hypnosis and how does it work? The woman with the hypnotic voice Interview with Lady Tara about "Erotic Hypnosis" Concluding thoughts: The power of erotic hypnosis Erotic Hypnosis – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) 1. What is erotic hypnosis and how does it work? Have you ever heard of erotic hypnosis Heard of it? A term that sparks curiosity, sounds slightly mysterious, and initially raises more questions than it answers. What at first seems like a niche topic has developed in recent years into its own erotic genre – fascinating, multifaceted, and surprisingly profound. One of the most prominent voices in this scene is Lady Tara, co-founder of Erotic-Hypnose.com and several times with the Venus Award excellent. We spoke with the woman who has already captivated thousands with her hypnotic audiobooks – and who is described by many as having one of the most erotic voices in Germany. A conversation about myths, misunderstandings, and the special power of words. 2. The woman with the hypnotic voice Lady Tara is one of the founders of Erotic-Hypnose.com and her website has already won three Venus Awards. In 2015, she received the Venus Award for the most innovative erotic product of the year, in 2019 the Venus Award for the "Best Erotic Online Product", and in 2022 the award for the "Best Erotic Hypnosis Audiobooks". Lady Tara defines "erotic hypnosis" as follows: "Erotic hypnosis is the state in which all cognitive processes are (consciously) suppressed in order to influence the subconscious mind. Erotic hypnosis has two main goals: firstly, to penetrate (and influence) the cognitive pleasure center, and secondly, to induce erotic, lucid dreams. Both can also occur in combination." Source: Lady-Tara.de A polarizing topic – and a woman who explains it with clarity. Here is our conversation with Lady Tara. 3. Interview with Lady Tara about “Erotic Hypnosis” Tara, what is the most typical reaction when you tell people how you earn your money? Tara: To be honest, people are initially surprised, but then also very curious. Many only know hypnosis from television or from topics like... z.B. Smoking cessation. However, very few people have ever heard of erotic hypnosis. Unfortunately, many still have a very inaccurate understanding of hypnosis, but then they want to know what it's all about. Explain erotic hypnosis to us in such a way that even the most hardened skeptic becomes curious. Tara: As I've already said, curiosity arises in everyone, regardless of whether they are skeptics or have prior experience with hypnosis. The challenge lies in dispelling the persistent misconceptions about hypnosis. Skeptics, in particular, often believe it's something magical, like mind control they've seen on TV – and, of course, they claim they could never be hypnotized. However, everyone is in a kind of hypnotic state every day. For example, when reading a gripping (perhaps erotic) novel. It's simply a deep concentration where you're aware of everything but consciously ignore it.As a hypnotist, however, I can gain access to subconscious processes and, for example, induce a certain state in the listener. trigger orgasm – without him or her having to touch themselves. Simply through my words. According to your website, you've been around since 2012. What was the trigger back then, and what did version 1.0 look like? Tara: It was actually a very spontaneous idea that my colleague Fred – who still runs the site with me – and I had back then. We saw that there were dominatrixes in the USA who offered recordings as "hypnosis dominatrixes." I myself had already been earning money with hypnosis at that time, and Fred was a web marketing specialist and had a small hobby recording studio. In addition, we had both been involved in the private sphere for a long time. Kinky-scene were out and about. So we started the whole thing as a "fun project". The first three recordings were "A Day as a Woman," "An Orgasm Through Listening," and "Seven Days Without an Orgasm." Back then, nobody would have believed that a few years later we would receive several Venus Awards for our work. You have received several Venus Awards (2015, 2019, 2022). What specific changes have resulted from these awards? Tara: Actually, not that much has changed. Except that we've become even more well-known and have met many people in this scene. Meanwhile, I also write for many actresses or Dominas - How z.B. Ruby June or Marie Willes – even hypnotize themselves so they can make these available to their fans. Oh, and of course, we've been getting more interview requests from you than from you ever since. Was there a moment when you almost gave up? What happened, why did you stick with it? Tara: Yes, these moments have happened and unfortunately still do. For one thing, there's the incredibly challenging German legislation. Youth protection and data privacy are very demanding. Especially when working with external service providers, you sometimes wonder to what extent they're still living in the Middle Ages – sexually speaking. US companies, in particular, are genuinely afraid to work with anyone offering anything erotic. We all know how it is with Facebook: Hate and violence are acceptable – but a woman's bare nipples are unforgivable. What truly pushes us to our limits, however, are hackers and thieves. File sharers, or people trying to hack us to make our content freely available online, are unfortunately a recurring problem. They don't realize that of the 35 euros a hypnosis session costs, we have to hand over roughly half to the government, and from the remainder we have to pay two employees, cover our running costs, and even put food on the table. I've often been at the point where I'd rather just give up. The only thing holding me back is the reaction of our fans. It's simply wonderful to read how we can fulfill people's most intimate desires, desires they might never experience in everyday life. Feel free to read the reviews on our site – they're all completely genuine. What are your top 5 fantasy themes that always work? Tara: Phew… the nice thing is that the world of sexuality so beautifully colorful and diverse. But topics like orgasm control, feminization and Cuckolding These are always in high demand with us. ASMR erotica is also very popular, and we are the only ones who truly combine ASMR and hypnosis, enabling us to create very intense scenarios. Where do you draw the line with content, even if there is demand? Tara: Absolutely, anything illegal and inhumane. I don't think I need to list any specific examples. Anyone with common sense knows what I mean. What is also out of the question for us is so-called “FinDom", also Financial Domination. While we do have hypnosis sessions where the listener can experience 'blackmailing and findom' – but only as a fantasy and a lifelike dream, without them ever actually being at risk of entrusting their finances to a real person." mistress to have to hand it in. Many of our readers are into bondage, fetish toys, and BDSM. Where do you see the strongest overlap with erotic hypnosis? Tara: Eroticism is – as already mentioned – colorful and diverse. Whether one is into Bondage, on BDSM, Whether you're into cuddly sex or whatever else you're into, erotic hypnosis can basically allow you to explore any fetish or preference. With over 500 hypnosis audiobooks, we therefore offer everything from the standard "Experience Sex on the Beach" to "Abducted by Aliens"—everything the human mind can imagine in all its colorful splendor. But especially for bondage and kinky fans, I highly recommend hypnosis sessions dedicated to the topic of "Mental Bondage." Afterward, the listener can— z.B. At a certain word – he can no longer move and is truly "bound." Just by words. From your perspective, what happens in people's minds that makes them experience this as extremely real? Tara: It's essentially the same as having an absolutely vivid dream. Many people are familiar with that feeling of waking up in the morning and not knowing for a few minutes whether what they just dreamed was real or not. It's exactly the same with our hypnosis stories. You have the feeling that it's truly real. And since our brain basically stores every memory in the same place, it really does feel "real" and "genuine" afterward. What role does imagination play and how can it be trained? Tara: I think everyone is capable of imagination. However, with our hypnosis sessions, it often takes a few tries before it really works. The first time, most people are simply too excited, wanting to fully understand what's happening and take everything in. Often, they then listen to the hypnosis, find it pleasant and relaxing, but it doesn't produce the desired reaction. The second time, people are more relaxed and often already get into a lighter mood. trance And then, when they hear it for the third or fourth time, it suddenly "clicks" and they become completely immersed in the story, usually surprised themselves at how extremely well it works. At this point, I'd like to emphasize one more thing: Hypnosis only works if you want it to. I can't hypnotize anyone against their will. For example, if you, as a heterosexual man, listen to my hypnosis "Gay for a Day," it won't work—simply because your own subconscious will protect you and say, "No, I'm not gay." However, if such a tendency is deeply hidden within you, then through hypnosis I can open all the doors that will cause you to think only about men. Therefore, hypnosis cannot make anyone do something they don't (subconsciously) already truly want. Lady Tara, you are regulars at the legendary swingers club INSOMNIA Berlin – what is a hypnosis sex party like there? Tara: Yes, we've been going there for a few years now, after we met the owners of Insomnia on the Venus Fair We've gotten to know each other. Every party here is different – ​​it all depends on our guests, just like any other party. Fetish party That too. Generally speaking, it's a party, not a show. At the beginning of the party, we essentially put our guests into a hypnotic group trance, ensuring that everyone can shed their inhibitions outside of insomnia and fully embrace their own sexuality. Then we turn up the music and let the evening unfold. This has often led to very "wild" nights. Generally, we also offer individual guests the option of being hypnotized individually, or have already done so. Group hypnosis sessions for women only, in which we these Achieving orgasm through hypnosis have brought. What will be bigger for you next: audio series, ASMR, live performances, or completely new formats? Tara: Here I feel confident enough to make a prediction. ASMR is a huge trend, and we're constantly expanding our portfolio of ASMR hypnosis sessions. We're considering expanding our party series from Berlin to the rest of Germany, and I'm personally working on creating more erotic hypnosis sessions in the "life improvement" area – that is, helping people through Erotic hypnosis to help with weight loss and quitting smoking and simply "erotic" to become for the same sex. Oh… and I also make music myself. For example, I wrote a song about ASMR. But I admit that it's more of a hobby and I probably won't win a Grammy. But who knows – maybe a Venus Award is waiting for us someday. Your personal favorite hypnosis category, without even thinking about it. Tara: Orgasm control. Absolutely. I love it – not just professionally – when I can bring my partner to orgasm with just a few words and a snap of my fingers. 4.

Searching the internet for sex tips or toy reviews often leads to hell: flashing banners, poorly translated texts, and products that smell like a chemical accident.One person has had enough: Thomas Stein, co-founder and editor-in-chief of Sex-Geek.com . Together with his partner Lisa (who often acts as a tough testing expert in the background) and founder Julian Zabala, he built a platform in 2026 that is different: honest, direct and with a clear focus on quality rather than quantity.We talked to him about why "security is the new sexy" – and why Lisa is our Bondage sets recommends. From frustration to mission: Who is behind Sex Geek? Lorenz Engel: Thomas, honestly: Does the world really need another sex blog? Thomas Stein: Laughs. A bad one? No. An honest one? Absolutely.The idea for Sex-Geek came out of pure frustration. A few years ago, Lisa and I wanted to buy new sex toys and only found fake reviews. Everything was "great," everything was a "test winner." That's bullshit.We wanted to build a site that feels like asking your best friend for help. Someone who would also tell you: "Leave it alone, it's stuck." Lorenz Engel: You cover everything – from toy reviews and VR porn to BDSM guides. What's your specialty? Thomas Stein: Clearly the interface between technology and the body. I'm a geek. I love it when things work. When a VR headset truly creates immersion, or when a bondage lock... click It does and is secure. That fascinates me.Lisa often tests the emotional side: How does the material feel? Is it really comfortable? We complement each other perfectly in that regard. If it's no good, we write that down too.

Thomas Stein: That you're finally solving a problem that drives me crazy as a "security fanatic".In our BDSM beginner's guide, I always preach: The material determines pleasure or frustration.Looking at your concept (magnetic lock principle, cotton), I immediately see the difference to cheap stuff: Nobody wants to fumble around for a key during lovemaking. The magnetic lock is intuitive and secure. And the cotton ensures that Lisa doesn't look like she's been cuddling with stinging nettles the next day.For me, that's the difference between "toys" and professional "BDSM“. A look into the future: What will 2026 bring? Lorenz Engel: Where is the journey with Sex Geek headed? Thomas Stein: We want to become the number one point of contact in the DACH region for everyone who wants to live a modern sexuality.We are placing a huge focus on AI tools – a super exciting topic right now – and looking at how technology, from VR to app control, is changing our relationships.And of course, we continue to look for partners like you who understand that quality is also important in bed.
