Summary

Ep. 034: Today we’re exploring a realm I have yet to hear on a mindfulness show, but I really think there are so many benefits to being opening your mind to things outside of your comfort zone and when I go over some of these stats in a minute, you’ll see why. We’re talking about BDSM with a professional dominatrix. BDSM stands for bondage, discipline, sadism and masochism. Recent psychological studies have actually shown that people who partake in BDSM might actually be happier, and healthier. Today we are lifting the veil and our guest is actually a professional dominatrix named Collette Pervette. She has been practicing the art of intimacy and power exchange for the past 13 years. She holds a PhD in Human Development and Education from UC Berkeley. She thinks our fantasies and suffering and have the potential to lead us to our higher purpose. We will learn: How becoming vulnerable can deepen intimacy How to get the balls to speak your own hidden desires How to be more open and accepting toward people and situations in your life Show Notes: mindlove.com/034 Sign up for The Morning Mind Love for short daily notes from your highest self.
