BDSM BENEFITS<\/strong><\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Recent science has started to support claims that BDSM<\/a> may have anti-anxiety effects, as well as other mental health benefits.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Submissives (Subs) describe entering an altered state of consciousness in which one feels totally released from stress and present in the moment<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Studies show that Subs consistently had lower levels of cortisol, a stress hormone, after engaging in their BDSM play than before their session… and that even when their physical stress was high, subs reported low psychological stress<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A number of strengths may be derived from BDSM participation including ability to plan and focus on details; patience and the ability to delay gratification; communication, negotiation and an ability to trust and feel safe; an ability to seek adventure and “aliveness”; an ability to strive to reach one’s potential; and an ability to take safe risks…<\/p>\n
