Claustrophobia During BDSM Training

August 15, 2009

It’s happened to many a slave. They’ve been in a bondage scene, a mummification scene – or some other intense scene – and they’ve suddenly felt like they couldn’t breathe. The slave may have simply panicked with things being a bit too intense, while others feel claustrophobic and as though they might have died or been hurt. These are not good feelings to have when you are trying to focus on pleasing your Dom/me or when you are trying to focus on doing the things your Dom/md asked you to do. This sensation of claustrophobia isn’t uncommon, and it probably happens to every slave at least once. But there are many cures and ways to help you soothe your nerves, no matter what your Dom/me decides to do.

****************************
Trusting Your Dominant
****************************

One of the biggest things to ask yourself when you are encountering feelings of claustrophobia is to ask yourself what you are afraid will happen. If you are afraid that your Dom/me will hurt you or that you are in a dangerous position, you need to address these feelings first. You can not simply think your Dom/me can read your mind. You need to talk to your Dom/me about what you are feeling, using your safe word, if necessary, when things get too intense. A good Dom/me who understands boundaries and your agreement will stop as soon as you state your safe word, so there should be no problems with communication or with feeling unsafe. In the event that you can not talk during a scene, always set up another method of communication – dropping a bell toy from your hand, for example, will alert a Dom/me that their gagged slave is having troubles.

**************************
Revealing Your History
**************************

Most slaves become afraid of being smothered or hurt during a scene when they have had a bad experience in the past. You will want to make sure you disclose this past experience to your Dom/me so they are aware of what you might be feeling during certain scenes. Be clear about what has bothered you in the past and what has helped you in the past as well. In doing so, you and your Dom/me can work out ways to keep everyone comfortable and safe. Sometimes, just telling your Master about these past experiences will allow you to relax.

********************************
Relaxation Techniques to Try
********************************

Once you have created trust with your Dom/me and they know about your past, you might still have some troubles with feeling claustrophobic. Assuming you have a safe word or a safe signal, it’s time to find other ways to settle your brain. Breathing is the one thing that needs to be done as the body panics when it does not get enough oxygen. Make sure you are breathing deeply throughout your scene so your brain remains clear and your muscles remain relaxed. You might also want to focus on other things happening in the scene which will take your mind off the feelings you are having. Think about your Dom/me and what they are doing, as that’s probably what they want you to be doing anyway.

Claustrophobia does happen, so when scenes arise which might trigger this feeling, it’s best for the slave and the Master to do things slowly. Bondage should be applied in tighter and tighter fashions when the slave becomes comfortable with certain positions. Gradually working in more gags, hoods, etc. will also help to prevent claustrophobia. But when all fails, the slave needs to feel comfortable to use their safe word to feel safer. That’s what it’s for, after all.

How To Set The Mood

August 5, 2009

Whether you’re a submissive or a Dominant, the mood of the scene
you will be in matters. How you take the time to setup your scene
and how much thought you put into creating just the right mood for
that particular session will help to enhance your time together.
There are many simple ways to create the sort of scene you want -
dark, romantic, sensual, intense, etc. All you need to do is to
keep in mind the different senses: sight, smell, sound, touch, and
taste. Try to involve as many of these as possible and you will be
sure to make tonight’s session the best ever.

***************************
Choose the Best Location
***************************

The best scenes use the best locations. Even if you’re simply
using your everyday bedroom, choosing a place where you can feel
safe and sensual is the best starting point. This room should also
be private and it should be somewhere you can move around easily,
as needed. Some people prefer to take their subs to clubs if they
want to practice humiliation techniques and control techniques.
Others prefer the privacy of their own homes when no one else is
around to let the energy build as much as they can. Find a place
where you and your partner can be comfortable and then you can
begin to further create the mood.

***************************
Lighting and Music Ideas
***************************

It’s almost become clichéd that BDSM scenes have hard gothic rock
music or something that’s more of a New Age tone. These songs tend
to be quite intense, which mirrors the energy of the scene. Look
for music that has the tempo you feel will be created in the course
of the scene – some favorites are Enigma, Portishead, Type O
Negative, Tool, etc.

For lighting, you need to keep in mind that there should be enough
light to see what you’re doing and experiencing, but not so much
light that it seems too bright. But again, different scenes call
for different lighting needs. The soft glow of candlelight can be
perfect for a more romantic mood, while brighter lights and
spotlights might work well for role playing scenes.

**************************
Upping the Anticipation
**************************

In addition to setting the mood before the scene by laying out the
potential toys and devices beforehand, you can also help a sub
really get into the mood by using these techniques:

=============
Blindfolds
=============

When you use blindfolds, you can cause the sub to not
know exactly what’s going on, which can heighten their
anticipation. They can hear everything that’s happening, but they
don’t know exactly what to expect or when to expect it.

===================================
Letting the sub see what’s there
===================================

As mentioned before, laying out the different sex toys and paddles
(for example) you might use during a scene can make a sub wonder
what exactly might happen during the session. Even more powerful
for building the mood? Give the sub a list of things to lay out for
them to use and then ask them to clean them as needed as well.
This will make the sub’s mind race and will cause them to be ready
to serve when the scene starts.

=====================================================
Binding the sub and then slowly building the scene
=====================================================

If blindfolds aren’t as effective in your relationship, using
bondage can often help to keep the sub from moving around or away
from what you intend to do to them. To learn how to create intense
bondage scenes go to ===> Rope Bondage Tutorial

Other ways to enhance the mood of a scene is to light incense,
include foods and other sensory items like ice, wax, etc. You
might also want to include certain words and phrases that might
help to set the mood for the sub as well as get you into the
mindset as the Dominant.
