Using this method, you basically want to do it and repeat it as much as you can, as often as you can, until those phantom limbs become *real* to you.
It's something you can do in five minutes once you get a hang of entering self-trance. And once you do, you can basically reinforce it forever.
The same way how when you get a shoulder massage you can feel it in the hand of that arm, you're going to imagine that sensation spreading out into the hypnogogic limb from the point you're giving yourself that massage. Feel the little waves and gentle sensations traveling out, getting stronger.
While staying in self-trance, guide your own hands to touch the spots on your body where you want to have those hypnogogic sensations. That's your focus method, that's how you're going to spread the sensation - by gently massaging the flesh around the "connection site" and imagining that spreading.
For self hypnosis: When you're properly good and zoned out in your mind palace, you're in that self-hypnosis spot where you can really connect with your inner self, you're going to basically repeat the steps from partnerwork, but you have the benefit of being able to touch yourself.
For doing it to yourself, step one is knowing how to do self hypnosis.
That's a whole other topic unto itself - but there's a lot of ways you can do it, and you don't actually have to go too deep for this one if you're doing it solo. Basically just find a quiet space to meditate and zone out.
And you can modify those limbs to react with other triggers, or heighten the sensitivity of them so if you or your partner touches the base flesh it sends shocks of pleasure through your system, or you can encode triggers like "I say this and it feels like I'm pulling your tail" and that's so fun.
Altogether I think this one's a really, really easy one for new folks to try. It doesn't take too much skill or experience, and there's no real way for you to really fuck someone up with it. It's low-hanging, easygoing, lovely fun that can be done at any skill level.
So go on and give it a try!!!
Let me know how it goes~ ❤️
Hypnogogic limbs are really, really versatile and you can do a lot with them. Wings, tails, horns, cock knots, new erogenous zones, claws, fangs, scales. Anything that can be imagined vividly enough by the subject can be installed onto their body with enough time and effort.
After that, just take the subject out of trance as normal and if everything worked correctly, the subject will be able to feel the phantom limb in their mind. It'll usually be pretty dull or dreamlike to start with, but the more times you can reinforce it and practice it, the stronger it'll get.
