Isabella Valentine

You exist and I exist in this hypnotic world, and we have now officially met. That means we’re connected. Whose existence do you think brought you here? Yours or mine? Maybe both. Life is interesting, isn’t it? The fact that you’re here reading this, for me, is validation that erotic hypnosis not only works, but it’s been a catalyst in building my career around the very concept of bringing arousal and relief on a global scale! Perhaps you thought about fantasy in the future tense and magically manifested me in the flesh. Here I am. What would you like to know?  Should you decide to ask yourself, “Who is Isabella Valentine?” I answer, “Whoever I think I am, I am so much more than that. And so are you.” Philosophy plays an integral role in my thinking process, so “who I am” will and does vary from one moment to the next. I believe everything and everyone is one, and the opposite, which makes one big whole; and that the whole universe is connected.

I suppose it would be logical for me to assume you want to know who I am, since you are here reading an “about me” page. Have you ever tried to summarize your whole life in a few sentences to someone who is meeting you for the first time? For me, it’s often like trying to describe the birds and the bees to an alien. Have you ever had someone ask you, “What do you do,” and you answered by telling the person your job? Usually, from my experience, people are not their occupations. People are far more than that! If you were to ask me what I do as my career, I might tell you that I am a “sexual audio artist with years of hypnosis training and experience who makes recordings for a living.” However, the more you get to know me, you’ll see that’s just a fraction of “who I am.”

In order for me to share who I am, it might be good to share with you my core belief system. My childhood and teen years consisted of Pentecostal brainwashing. Still working on that. When I moved to California in 2003, I swore off religion and spirituality and went all out atheist. In the winter of 2007 while in a resort in Kona, Hawaii, listening to the sound of the sprinklers outside and the ocean washing up against the shore, I had my very own spiritual awakening. I asked the air in the room if it could hear me, and if so, I wanted to hear. I listened. The sprinklers outside instantly came on. I said I wanted to hear louder and the sprinklers outside got louder. The sprinklers, in essence, were my interpretation of “god” appearing to me. It was at that moment I felt a presence relax me to a euphoric sexual place of incredible surrender and happiness. Call it meditation, if you will.  Call it a coincidence. Luck, maybe. Some of my friends suggest the spiritual awakening occurred because the hotel was built on sacred ground and that knowledge may have prompted me to tap into it.

Regardless of how or why I had the awakening, it is clear that something out there led to the spawning of my inner Goddess. Since then, I have worked on rebuilding my belief system. My core. Something that feels good and right for my body. Keep in mind that I use the word “god” loosely. I don’t believe a man with a penis is guiding my life. I believe “god” is an interpersonal matrix – the cosmos, that guides and randomizes this mathematical equation called life. I believe in free-will, and I believe in destiny. Anything we think we are, we are so much more than that! Through meditation and various methods, I have learned how to tap into my inner Goddess (or if you prefer, you can substitute the word Goddess for “higher self” or “best self”). With concentrate and focus, it’s easier to find clarity on a deep, sexual level.

I’m a fan of skepticism and faith. I put science first, opinion second. Six celebrities I admire: Carl Sagan, James Randi, Jesus, Rumi, Bill Mahr, and Angelina Jolie; all for different reasons and all because they are the best for what they are/were known for doing. Carl Sagan is one of the most brilliant men that ever existed, and he popularized science – has a smooth vocabulary and a steadfast belief system that I admire. James Randi is the world’s most famous skeptic who, like Sagan, searches for truth rather than claims. Jesus is cool in the sense that he inspired people to have faith and to seek love and forgiveness of self an others. Rumi is my beloved; his poetry is my source. Bill Mahr is my modern day hero for not being afraid to question religious institutions and offering comedy around spiritual philosophy. Angelina Jolie – a humanitarian, beautiful Goddess, mother, entrepreneur, international role model, and a woman who knows how to control her public image – so much to love!

awakening

My recordings are a combination of pre-awakening AND post-awakening! My previous work may not be available much longer! It’s important to understand that most of my recordings on my site were created pre-awakening. Some previous work involved me talking to listener as if he or she were a potential (submissive) romantic partner; this justified my need to suggest being “addicted” to be as a dominant – and as a partner. Approximately 90 recordings and videos have been permanently removed from the site because they no longer serve the image I wish to present. I never knew 2 years could change a person, but for me it has. What’s different now? I have peace, a soul mate, a child, security, a belief system. Tracy Morgan once said in his book The New Black, “I have a reason to live longer than today. Tomorrow. I have a reason to live longer than when my bills are due. I have a reason to be alive next month.” And friends who will be there till the end. I am mindful of the words Angelina Jolie said to Barbara Walters when asked if she would do anything differently if she could go back into the past, “I would have been a little less self-destructive.”

The beautiful way my husband treats me inspires me to treat listeners with the same courtesy and respect I want for myself. My definition of Goddess implies that everyone else are equally Gods and Goddesses too. I don’t feel I’m better than other people (regardless of any humiliation fetish recordings you may have heard from me – they are fantasy only, which require a suspension of disbelief). Any references to “worshipping me” is purely for sexual fetish purposes for those who like female domination. I define the word “worship” as being verbal or nonverbal adoration.

Listeners are not obligated to fantasize about me as a romantic partner. My voice can represent ANY woman whom you’d like to speak to you. Whenever I refer to “I or me” on a recording, feel free to imagine (or channel) another person speaking.

ladies

My favorite erotic recordings are for women. I LOVE women and have the highest respect for women. Ladies, if you’re reading this, thanks for being here! I plan on increasing the amount of recordings for women in 2010. At the time of this writing, over 90% of my work was created for the single, unattached transgender/male listener. I understand that my role may lead to possible confusion – especially for married folks, so let me rest assured that my goal is to strengthen fantasy and arousal; I want no part of “stealing” anyone. Some couples have open poly relationships with multiple partners. Others choose to be exclusively monogamous. My natural role is to be a fantasy and a muse, not a man-stealer (or a woman-stealer for that matter). If you are in a relationship in which there is either jealousy or resentment with my role as a fantasy hypnotist, I urge you to follow your instincts. You know your partner better than I do. Talk to one another calmly and openly. Be honest about your feelings. It might be good to come up with some relationship agreements between you so you can feel GOOD and RIGHT about your decisions regarding your fantasy time. If you are a married man, feel free to invite your wife to the site to hear “Euphoria” or “Lucid Matrix” so she can feel good too (and maybe even learn a few new ways to surprise you)! All in all, I just want the world to feel good.

allissex

You may ask yourself, “How can a person tap into sex without a partner?” or “How can I have a fantasy Mistress so that no one knows?” This is why I have chosen to do erotic hypnosis – it can be experienced within the privacy of our personal homes. It’s my way of contributing something I’m naturally good at – with the world. And I’ll do this as long as I am alive and have a voice. This is my calling. My highest form of fulfillment comes from the satisfaction I get offering people sexual relief through means of mind+body+spirit relaxation. Soon, my site will offer a new category of recordings and videos for couples to enjoy together.

Thinking back over my life, I can honestly say that sex has been the forefront and backbone of my thinking process since I’ve been alive. As a kid, I found myself thinking about sex and eroticism even at times when it wasn’t something proper to think such things. For me, everything is sex. The tree outside my window is sex. The paint on the wall is sex. The wrinkles on the back of a pair of jeans on a sexy girl… is sex. It is for this reason that I have always self-identified as a sex Goddess.

Erotic hypnosis comes as naturally to me as breathing or eating. Sex is everywhere. I tend to turn everything into sex. And, I like to talk. There, I said it. For me, it’s easier to remove myself from a bad mood, a dangerous trip, or a traumatic memory by thinking of erotic, hypnotic sex. The wonderful thing about sex is that it is not limited to conventional heterosexual intercourse. What I mean by sex is surrender. It is everything and everywhere, just like energy. If you dig quantum physics and subjects about alternate realities, you may already grok my “all is sex” concept.

I am who I say I am. I am about as real as it gets. My reputation relies on me being honest and truthful about who I am and how I present myself. The voice you hear is mine. I have photos and videos available on the site in case you want to match my face with my voice if you need verification that I am who I am. The name Isabella Valentine was created for privacy reasons. Ironically, I’ve been called Isabella for so long now that I respond more naturally to it than my given name. Everything shared about me on this site is real. In some ways, the creation of my Isabella persona, has sculpted who I have become. Who I am now… is who I wanted to be years ago.

intimacy

In the summer of 06, one of my online recordings (“Love Spell”) helped me snag the man of my dreams. You could say it was love at first hearing. Years later, Maurice and I got married with a private ceremony wearing pajamas and our vows ended with “You may now hypnotize your husband.” And in August of 2009, we gave birth to a healthy baby boy. You may know Maurice online (he often answers tech questions and works on web design and the development of this site) as being the creator of Inraptured. One thing people love about him is that he completely supports and encourages my desire to do erotic hypnosis as long as I want – with him and with others. We have an open relationship and excellent communication, which means I may have other lovers (with the understanding we discuss it first). This, of course, allows me to openly flirt with my customers without fear of a jealous response from him.

symbolism

A few other things about me. I’m a Halloween baby (born October 31, 1980 at 8:45 pm) so that makes me a Scorpio. It’s been suggested that Scorpios are intense, profound, sexual, passionate, powerful, and loyal beings. I was literally born on the day of the dead, All-Hallows-Eve. I’ve spent my whole life embracing dress-up, costuming, characterization, superheroes, and magic (trick-treat). My role as a hypnotic, sexual Goddess is a lifelong striving of inner-growth and a need to understand science and the cosmos.

While I’m aware that astrology is a controversial subject (especially since it’s ambiguous, vague, and random), I love embracing Scorpio’s water element. Those associated with water signs are often described as: intuitive, emotional, imaginative, nurturing, secretive, dreamy; characteristics that I’d say accurately describe me.

It is such an awesome feeling to have so many good, intelligent repeat clients. Since March 2003, I’ve been doing erotic hypnosis professionally. This is more than just a job. It’s my life. I LOVE inspiring people to open their minds with the goal of sexual relief. I look FORWARD to making erotic hypnosis recordings, especially if they’re designed for transgenders. It’s common for me to be watching tv or listening to a song on a radio, and a lightbulb shows up above my head and I think, “Ohh I should put my own spin on that in my recording!” From morning to night, I’m almost always doing something for the purpose of improving the way I make recordings.

gender

That gets me to another thing called gender. Bear with me on this. I believe that every human being is a combination of male and female. I’m not referring to animals. I’m referring to us humans, we who have evolved past beastliness and savagery. I believe all human beings are capable of strengthening their personality traits. This is what separates man from animal. If men are supposed to be strong and women are supposed to be graceful, why not tap into both? I could argue that a graceful, quiet, obedient man could be as equally sexy as a strong, dominant, assertive woman. Every gender has strengths and weaknesses, positives, and negatives. Those who embrace the male and female energies may find it hard to label themselves. Some people like to be called transgenders, pansexual, multisexual, metrosexual, etc. It has nothing to do with being homosexual, bisexual, or heterosexual. All transgender really means is that the individual embraces a blend of genders. I was born a woman with a vagina, but I consider myself a transgender. I can bench press more than most guys can, AND I use power tools. Imitates man: *Rawf Rawf Rawf.*

Funny how gender leads conversations towards sexual preference. I’m an Italian-English, caucasian lesbian transgender married to an African-American male transgender, and our love cultivated a gorgeous biracial baby. How’s that for unconventional? I prefer to be romantically intimate with people who are graceful, soft spoken, curvy, seductive, and strong. I believe sexuality is fluid, it’s a spectrum and it changes from moment to moment – and that’s not even taking into consideration the human response to alcohol! If I had a nickel for every time I went home with… that’s another story! The point is, I think humans can be homosexual, heterosexual, and bisexual at the same time, simultaneously, and with no regret or guilt. I believe people should have the freedom to be sexually active (in fantasy) with whatever or whoever brings the tingles. Penises and vaginas, they come and go. But horniness? That’s forever, baby. Just go with it. I have learned that it is OK to have bisexual fantasies. It is OK to have homosexual fetish fantasies. It is OK to have heterosexual fantasies. It’s ok to mix them up too, in the same fantasy upside down and in your mouth. Whatever wets you.

I follow the RACK motto:

R. (Risk) – All individuals participating in erotic play are aware of risk either through disclaimer or description. Individuals makes choices.
A. (Aware) – Individuals may choose to discontinue participation at any time. Hypnosis is not sleep, it is awareness.
C. (Consensual) – Free will allows individuals who purchase my recordings have the option to sit-through to a recording first before “being hypnotized” by it.
K. (Kink) – All individuals participating in erotic play use “suspension of disbelief” and something called an imagination. This is only fantasy.

sexuality

I doubt anyone is really 100% straight. My opinion is that in order for a man (or woman for that matter) to self-identify as straight, he would have to deeply consider having a romantic interlude with “the perfect man” in order to reject such experience. By definition alone, in order to deeply consider having romantic feelings for the same sex, the person would have to tap into parts of himself that may enjoy it. If a person is or has considered it, that means it’s impossible to be 100% straight.

It goes without saying that I doubt anyone is really completely gay either, for the same reasons listed above. However, I DO think people can swing all the way to 99.9999% one way or the other. Sexuality is fluid with a spectrum. People who ride the stream are more likely to find out where they flow from one day to the next, increasing their own sexual awareness. I don’t think intercourse, oral sex, or masturbation are sufficient enough to pin us in a box as far as determining our sexual preferences. Desire, thought patterns, and repeat fantasies ought to be taken into consideration. I’ll write a book on it one day. Promise.

erotichypnosis

So, you may ask, “Why erotic hypnosis?” And that, my friends, is the million dollar question. To me, it is the highest form of surrender; consequently, it’s the ultimate form of trust. It goes both ways for me, both as a hypnotist and a subject. Before I was an erotic hypnotist, I was a journalist for a newspaper, a magazine editor, and a graphic artist/layout person for various publications in the southeast. My articles, poetry, essays, and stories have been published in over 300 magazines, books, and various publications (online and in print) – and I’ve published my very first book at the age of 20 (under another name). Combine that with my love for creative writing (I was the editor-in-chief of our literary magazine in Creative Writing class and Opinion Editor of the school paper), and my on-the-job experience as a teenager publishing an international quarterly poetry magazine with my father, I’ve surrounded my life with writing creative art using poetic linguistics on an international canvas. I wanted a career where I could write for a living – and talk about sex. I had grown up watching cartoons and tv shows that showcased both male and female hypnotists in dominant roles and found them absolufuckinglutely fascinating!

I had been told by several people that I had a natural ability to relax and soothe people using the sound of my voice, especially when I slow down and get into a rhythm. My love of writing + my relaxing voice + creative art + sex + orgasm = Erotic Hypnosis. This is where I discovered I could really write beautiful erotic hypnosis scripts and then record them out loud. First I had to know what people really wanted, so I spent 2 years as a professional phone sex operator. It was there I gained a deeper understanding of why people sought out sexual fantasy from a stranger in the first place. The answer? Intimacy. Surrender. Being understood. An escape from life. A direction. The more people I talked to, the more I discovered for myself what subjects I most preferred to discuss (transgenderism, quantum physics, sensual domination). Almost all of my recordings are written beforehand, because I LOVE writing. In many ways, expressing language through words is very grounding. If my likeness were sculpted into a statue, I would have a crystal pendant around my neck, a journal in my dress pocket, and a cloud underneath my feet. The correlation between sex and hypnosis, for me, is trust and surrender. Trust is required to be hypnotized; surrender is required to like it. Trust + surrender = Fulfillment on the deepest, most awesome level of sexual love, lust, passion, and intimacy.

What I love the most about hypnotizing others is knowing that, even if only in a small way, I have been a part of opening a higher awareness to sexual fantasy. Plus, when I’m given the opportunity, I love being able to craft a fantasy where both parties can think what they want, regardless of my (or their) body image. It’s just that. A fantasy. And it just happens to have a few fancy triggers in there to enhance the overall experience.

It’s been said that in order to be a great hypnotist, you also have to be a great subject. In order to be a great dominant, you also have to be a great submissive.

What I love the most about being hypnotized, is surrender. I love closing my eyes, listening to a voice of someone I trust, and letting my subconscious mind do all the listening. I have the option to not think at all, just obey and listen, which prevents over-analyzation. It’s hard for me to describe in words. It’s like I see everything and nothing at the same time. Colors become more vibrant. I see moving psychedelic patterns. And in that moment, I find myself. It is there where I feel nurtured, wanted, needed, accepted, fulfilled, satisfied…. RELAXED. Once I’m relaxed, I find I can have stronger, hotter orgasms because I’m lending the reaction of my body to my inner voice. Think about that one for a while ;)

hobbies

Ok, let’s talk hobbies. I’m a follow-through type of girl because it just feels good. Isn’t it a great feeling to finish something? Just recently, my husband and I built a custom stereo for my iPod using a saw, recycled wood, art, paint, tile, glue, fabric, and hardware. Took us 4 or 5 days (his idea, my design), working on it 8 hours a day. Two words that accurately describe me are: creative and strong. Arts and crafts are sooo fun!

Digial photography is one of my all-time favorite hobbies. You may have seen some of my pin-up photos throughout the net and even in Maxim (Belgium edition). I’ve snapped photos of some of the most beautiful and well-known models in the world (Isabella’s Photography) and silly things like the inside of a spray can. Since I was 4 years old, I’ve been handy with a needle, so I often have a sewing project in the works. I like scrapbooking, blogging, collaging, and cutting up magazines for eccentric pictures and blending them with other pictures. Hand me a blow torch and I’ll show you how to make glass dreadlock beads. My walls are painted with murals my husband and I designed and painted. The tabletop in the living room is a giant piece of wood with Goddess artwork I’ve put together with clear varnish so it’s easy to clean. Creating art with mixed media is the foundation of my creative streak. I’d like to think I’m a wizard with a set of lead pencils – just give me a photo and I can pretty much draw it. My whole life is art. My work. My home. The inside of my brain has purple fireworks.

I’m a gamer. There I said it. That’s the boy inside me. Those who play World of Warcraft online may appreciate that my primary character is a dual-spec Night Elf Priest Healer (For the Alliance!). I love rpg games like Sacred 1 and 2, Balders Gate 1 and 2, D&D Heroes, and Diablo 2. I also like Civilization, Tower Bloxx, Bioshock, Fable 1 and 2, and for a while, I was a Sims fanatic. Some video games I have but haven’t completed such as Lost Odyssey, Oblivion, Assassin’s Creed, and well… too many to list. Gotta get some extra time! I’m into board games like the Catan stuff, Talisman, Scrabble, chess, Yahtzee, Monopoly, complicated jigaw puzzles and if I ever get a free weekend, it would be cool to play Axis and Allies from start to finish.

I’m also a computer geek of sorts. Like many of you, I’ve been into computers since MS-DOS. I was 9 years old typing my first short story (about the Holocaust) in c slash wordperfect. Loved Pong. Loved Super Mario Bros. on Nintendo when it first came out.

booksmart

Oh how I love to read! My personal home library consists of a wide range of books with topics ranging from hypnosis to web design to fantasy art to comic books. I love reading psychology, gender studies, science, and sexuality textbooks. There is so much to learn – the various qualities of crystals and gems, the properties of stones and resin, and the innate qualities of humans and animals (things like healthy boundaries, social dispersion, and key personality factors). My favorite poet of all time is Rumi, who is well known to this day for his beliefs on mysticism, love, passion, spirituality, and death. I can never have enough of his books. (Little known fact: I had my spiritual awakening just 3 hours after a friend read Rumi aloud to me for the first time.) My favorite author is Carl Sagan. The collection of science, pseudoscience, quantum physics, and philosophy books in my home just keeps growing.

I prefer non-fiction to fiction. I prefer science to science-fiction. I prefer science over pseudoscience. I prefer a how-to magazine to a gossip column.

musicappreciation

As far as music goes, I strive to appreciate many varieties, because – in essence, music is an act of creation; a manifestation of love. If you were to look on my iPod, you would find it painstakingly categorized with excellent music to stimulate the pink parts. Most of the time when at home, I prefer to listen to slow and relaxing independent music. The slower the music, the more I tend to listen to it over and over. I love new age music, slow melodies, romantic instrumentals. Soft indie rock, indie alternative music, electronica, worldly music (ranging from Bulgaria to China to Japan to South Africa), Indian massage music, Hawaiian lullabies, Italian serenades, jazz (old to modern), rave and acid music, musical scores from soundtracks, female folk songs, you probably don’t wanna hear me go on and on… On the road, I tend to listen to loud hip hop, dance music, or a quiet classic symphony. When writing erotic hypnosis scripts, I almost always listen to the same playlist of music containing soft violin solos with nylon-string guitar accompaniment.

When I’m not listening to my iPod, I’m listening to XM radio (on tv and in my car). My favorite stations are Spa Radio, Coffee House/Acoustic, Electronica, NPR, and CNN Headline News. I’m often most happy when I’m listening to soft, relaxing music. It warms the body, calms the mind. Even when I take a bath or fall asleep, music is playing.

photos

Should you decide to browse my photo gallery, you may notice how drastically different I look from one photo to the next. Part of this is because of my extensive wig collection. The other part of this is because my weight fluctuates, and I just had a baby. American culture tends to expect women in entertaining positions to be physically fit and strikingly beautiful. I may not fit the prom queen stereotype, but I was mentioned in my high school yearbook more than any other student.

Physical beauty only goes so far, in my opinion. I am not a model. I’ve heard it said that I’m far more talented than I am beautiful, and I’m ok with that. I think, by definition, everyone is perfect. Like most humans, I’ve spent a lifetime learning how to wholely accept self; trusting, growing, forgiving, loving unconditionally. The mirror and I like each other, are comfortable with each other, and we get excited looking at each other – and frankly, that’s all that matters at the end of the day.

thoughtscape

My reason for sharing so much about myself with you is so that we can connect even more when you listen to my erotic hypnosis recordings. I am a firm believer that if you feel emotionally invested in me or the work I create, it will strengthen the bond you have to the surrender you’ll experience when you listen to one of my mp3s. It is important that I convey myself truthfully and responsibly. I have 2-3 years of college under my belt (studied psychology, sexology, and sociology) from accredited universities. And I’ve got 12 certifications in hypnosis, NLP, and Time Line Therapy. I’ve got two PhDs (one in Hypnotherapy and one in Spiritual Holistic Health) – but I don’t call myself a doctor by any means – it’s mostly for the paper for those who like credentials. One little thing you may not know about me is that I’m also an ordained minister which means I can legally marry people in any state that allows marriage by clergy. I support gay marriage, or at the very least, equal rights and civil unions. I’m an advocate for many human and animal rights groups.

Creating erotic hypnosis recordings has allowed me to purchase land and my own home. This is my day job, this is my night job. This is all I do. I live for this! Thousands of dollars worth of proceeds received from this site are used to sponsor 8 young children from Children International. I do hope you and I will have a relationship together where my recordings will inspire, arouse, and enchant you. Thank you for reading and enjoy the site!

Love
Isabella
