Do you feel your vibes are sort of out of the ordinary? Do people often tell you that you’re an old soul? Do you like to try and ‘fix’ people?
Have you ever been described as a manic pixie dream girl? Are you sensitive to your environment- to sound, scent, touch? Do you enjoy slow sex with intimate eye contact? Is your mindset kind of hippie-esque, even if you don’t wear harem pants 24/7? You’re probably a sensualist.
The world needs more people like you and you’re in great demand, even if you don’t realise it. Here’s 5 ways to make bank from your otherworldly energy.
Erotic Hypnosis
Hypnosis has been an effective form of therapy since forever. In erotic hypnosis, sex or touching is not necessary, although it can be part of it. It starts with getting into a breathing rhythm, before the hypnotist slowly and softly talks the other person into a trance-like state.
The goal is to enter the subconscious mind and break down a persons’s sexual barriers. Then things get erotic- you start describing a particular situation or feeling and it usually ends with a ‘hallucinatory orgasm’ something that feels very similar to an orgasm but isn’t always a real one.
So many people have trouble letting go during sex, so hypnosis is a great way to move past this.
If you like trying to heal people, this one may appeal, as erotic hypnosis is used to help people with sexual issues like erectile dysfunction, low libido, or sexual trauma and shame.
There’s a huge market out there for this, as so many people in today’s world struggle with sexual intimacy. Being an erotic hypnotist is certainly something you have to learn, but once you master it, it can be very helpful to not only the clients, but to you.
Sensual Striptease
Did you know that stripping isn’t only for the club? An at-home strip tease is totally a #ting, and for those voyeurswho love to watch, it’s even more enjoyable than actual sex. A sensual striptease is pretty much what it says on the tin.
When you think of a strip dance, you might think of sticky floors,disco lights and some run-of-the-mill R&B tune. Sensual strip tease is not this. It’s revelling in the inherently sensual aspect of dance.
Get your favourite sensual playlist at the ready, an entrancing fit,soft mood lighting and you’re ready to go.
You can do ‘at-home’ visits or if you’re more comfortable in your own space, then hold the party at yours.
Shibari
Whether it’s tying people up or being tied up yourself, there’s no denying that shibari is more than just an erotic experience– it’s an art form in itself.
It’s a lot more than just ropes and bondage, but that’s the simplified idea: one person ties up another into interesting positions and in aesthetically appealing knots (see photo).
If you’re looking for ways to profit from being a sensual goddess but you’re not necessarily interest in any sexual intimacy, shibari is perfect for you and there’s a growing market of people interested in experiencing it.
It’s a very meditative practice. There’s plenty of ways to learn, be it YouTube tutorials or in-person workshops.
Foot Worship
Were you born just knowing that you were a cut above the rest and deserve to be treated like the goddess you really are?
Foot worship might be for you. Foot fetish is the most popular fetish in the world (fr) and I kid you not, there are many many people out there willing to pay to worship your crusty ass feet.
Jokes aside, the feet are one of the most sensual parts of the body, and this skill is for all the lazy sensualists out there.
You don’t have to learn much, other than how to talk to your adoring slaves and acting as the sensual goddess you were born to be.
If you want a distanced affair, once you enter the world of foot fetishists, it’s pretty easy to sell your dirty socks and shoes: (footwear fetish is also massive).
Tantra
The buzz word of the last few years- if you don’t know tantra, get to know it. Tantra literally means ‘woven together’ – pretty beautiful right?
Tantra comes in many forms. Again, it doesn’t have to involve any actual sexual intimacy. It can come in the form of a sensual massage, yoga, eye gazing. If you’re a natural sensualist, the sense of tantra will already be in your bones, but learning about it and consciously trying it will take you to another level.
It’s about transcendence, healing, divinity. Tantra has changed many a’ life so rest assured that when you profit monetarily from this, you are also going to profit by learning a lot about yourself.
