The BDSM community seems to have a fetish and a fantasy for everyone and couples find a lot of sexual pleasure and satisfaction while diving into such sexual practices. While BDSM sex scenes are known for bringing a high level of sexual intensity and excitement, they also have other benefits that no one seems to talk about. And they are not all about reaching an orgasm, but as a matter of fact, some of the BDSM practices are even therapeutic for individuals and relationships equally. Most couples don’t picture ropes, tapes and armbinders when they are thinking of their relaxation time after a long day. But maybe they should! And not just to spice things up in the bedroom but also to give themselves a great chilling time. Let’s see what other benefits BDSM practices bring into your life and your relationship, besides the obvious ones.
1. Great way to reduce stress
BDSM practices are a great way to reduce stress that you accumulated during a long day at work and it can have the same impact on your partner. Since all BDSM scenes tend to be extremely intense, your mind will not be left free to wonder about all the worries and concerns that don’t allow you to relax. You can add as many sex toys and accessories as you want such as paddles or whips, and try to reach new levels of sexual pleasure and satisfaction as you discover new fetishes and fantasies along with your partner. Usually, BDSM scenes tend to be complex and take longer than a regular sex scene so that will have a positive impact on your mind and will help you to detach from all your daily stressful aspects. Over time, you and your partner will understand the fascination and relaxation that comes with ropes and tapes and will most likely prefer it to any other form of relaxation.
2. Increases intimacy between you and your partner
Intimacy is a very important aspect in a relationship and it should never be neglected or underestimated. Chances are that if your intimacy level is right, you will find yourself in a happy and healthy relationship for the long run. And BDSM tends to increase the level of intimacy that you need for your relationship because couples who dive into BDSM practices tend to be more close to each other and even trust each other more. When one partner is the dominant and the other one is the submissive, there is an exchange of control and power that needs to be made in order for the BDSM scene to be successful. This exchange of control stimulates the level of intimacy of a relationship and increases the chances of a healthy emotional balance between the two partners. So, even if this might not be an obvious benefit of BDSM practices, keep it in mind next time you get your sexual arsenal out and get ready for an intense sexual encounter with your lover.
3. Has the same effects of Yoga on your body
Yoga is healthy for your mind, body and soul and any Yoga instructor will tell you this. What they will not tell you is that BDSM practices might have similar benefits for your body, mind and soul, especially when you practice them according to your personal and intimate desires and necessities. There are BDSM scenes that require a great control over your body or that will need you to restrain the urge to have an orgasm for as long as your partner tells you to, in case you are the submissive type. These situations are very common when it comes to orgasm control games and also very popular among the BDSM community. And they require a lot of self-control and power to perform them the right way and reach the intense and exciting orgasm that you are aiming for.
