Chaos reigns in our shadow selves; the more we know and integrate this part of us, the more personal power we have to choose our responses in every aspect of our life.

BDSM Shadow Play is a fancy label for the “play” in which kinky folks engage. It is a way to understand our play in a way that allows us to find peace with ourselves, get dormant needs met, and find joy in the darkness of our minds.
We all have urges and desires that our thoughtful or “ego” self disapproves of. The more these parts are acknowledged, explored, and accepted as part of our complete life experience, the more control we have over our choices. As we engage with ourselves and shed our shame and judgment about our “darker” desires, we integrate, and our subconscious choices do not sabotage our thinking selves to the same degree.
BDSM is the space where you explore your shadow, those suppressed urges. You let them out. You rejoice and love yourself for the kinky, perverse being that you are. You play in the “what if” games and accept that there is a side of you that revels in being a victim, being small and cherished, being feminized & forced, or being overwhelmed by a goddess. None of us is ever all one thing; ignoring the less desirable parts of you gives those parts more control. Learn to love and feel your whole life experience with your conscious mind and live without fear and shame. Explore your repressed desires through healing BDSM.
