Hello! (Smiles and waves congenially)
As the title eludes, BDSM is not a cure all.
Just like chocolate does not cure all. Or sex.
But let's be honest, they sure can help!
Amethyst can attest to this journey for her being one of soul-stripping, uncomfortable, exposing, vulnerable hell at times.
Without which she would not have found her voice,
Or her purpose.
Or her path.
Or her self.
Or her strength.
See, muscles don't grow in the absence of working out, rather because of the strain.
So, while I am not even close to desiring to take responsibility for her journey, (it is after all her muscles to build), I DO take desperately serious my responsibility to her (her spotter, to continue the work out analogy).
To encourage her to be the best version of herself. To become all that she can be that serves her. I absolutely want to support her highest good, and when she falls down from the conditioning, traumas and triggers that raise up for her it is my honor to be allowed to hold a safe space for her as she navigates the mud puddle she finds herself in.
Am I healing her?
GOODNESS NO!!!
I am applying grace, love, patience, kindness, gentleness and sometimes a good swift kick in the arse! Those may not heal her, but let's be honest ........they sure don't hurt.
Healing comes from within. We are responsible for our own selves. Our journey is ours. And how we navigate our fears, doubts, abandonment wounds, traumas is for us to decide.
BDSM is a tool.
Grace is oil on a wound to comfort.
Just as a flogger is a tool......what it can do however, is nurture connection.
Isn't that what so many of us are seeking?
Hoping your day is filled with light, beauty and care.
Namaste
Drago and Amethyst
