EMBODIED ESCAPISM Posted by Mistress Stone of London, United Kingdom |
|
There are many different elements and drivers that can lead one to explore the beautiful world of bdsm and to visit a Dominatrix.
For some of us it is innate desire or perhaps even a need, that has been with us for as long as we can remember, like a hypotonic whisper that transmutes into the most powerful poetry once we are finally able to find a space to truly hear the words.
For others the path can be a slightly more deliberate one, a deep inner knowing of their need of and their desire for a space for freedom from the mind. A welcome escape from the overwhelmingly intense pressures of life and societal expectations; a world of constant choice, decision, demand, solutions, plans, action and responsibility. A non stop merry-go-round rota of cerebral responsibility that can leave it's rider gasping for breath!
Yet! Fret not, dear rider! The valiant Dominatrix, riding atop their black horse of bdsm, is here to rescue you from your dizzy peril!
The spaces created within the realms of bdsm and kink exploration and through the dynamic and exchange of dominance and submission are, what I believe to be, a form of EMBODIED ESCAPISM.
The true essence of submission is in itself an escape of sorts, in this act of 'handing over', of giving your mind, body and soul to another in deep vulnerability and trust, for them to hold and control can create a deep space of relief and liberation for many.
Escapism can often be labelled as a villain, and in many cases it can, of course, be a dangerous path of avoidance and sometimes destruction ( my own journey through the challenging pathways of addiction illustrated this only too clearly for me ).
The difference in the case of bdsm and kink exploration (when explored with responsibility, consciousness and morality) is that it is not at all to do with avoidance or numbing. Rather, in fact, an absorbing and embodying of ones desires, needs, pains and sometimes traumas. Which, when held safely and with trust and care, can lead to some of the most deeply healing and transformative experiences.
The transference of responsibility and decision making creates a space of liberation from the overactive and over pressured mind, and the physical and sensory experiences ground the body in the somatic realm to keep it an embodied experience throughout.
Overall one can experience feelings of deep relief, pleasure, excitement, healing, embodiment and the final but key element CONNECTION.
So what are you waiting for, go see a Dominatrix today! It's good for your health after all....
