EA154 - Giving Thanks

dananddawn@eroticawakening.com (Dan and dawn) — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 06:00:00 +0000

This month, Lee Harrington spends some time giving thanks- to his tribe and more, and asks in turn what you are giving thanks to in your sexual and spiritual journeys, and beyond. Thanks becomes an awareness of capacity, stories of identity, and how our identity is often wrapped up in what we think we "should" want. Perception becomes thanks once more, and a bit of sacred sensual poetry is thrown in for good measure!

Lee, however, wishes to apologize for getting *totally* ahead of himself. In the podcast he references that when the podcast goes live it will be just after thanksgiving and it will also be on his birthday. He realized a few hours after recording that this is not the case, and that there is an extra week between... so happy Thanks Giving everyone :)

Sex, Stories, and Power Exchange - Like some other couples, Dan and dawn whispered naughty stories to each other while in the bedroom and sometimes actually took the step to write them down, sharing them with each other for the erotic aspect of it. But one day, they decided 'Is this really something we want to do…and if so, will we still be ok?' This book is the adventures of a loving and erotic power exchange couple who decided to make their fantasies come true. It tells the stories of what they did (in story format!) as well as the lessons they learned on the way regarding love, jealousy, healthy group sex, mindfulness in lust, and more. Between each story they share the path they took to make sure they continued to be lovers, friends, and a healthy couple - while booming the sluts they fantasied about.

D&d explore the idea of sending your submissive off to training with someone else - be it a training place, a group or an individual. They explore the pros and cons of this for single submissives, slaves that are already in relationships, and people new to the lifestyle. This leads to an exploration of what Masters prefer (do we want to train you ourselves or do we prefer pre-training of some sort?). As well as a bunch of related discussion.

We also talk about our upcoming half day intensive, going live and broadcasting, and a furry based card game we are trying to learn!
