If you're intrigued by the idea of bondage but find yourself alone, there's still no need to miss out on the fun. Self-bondage can be just as satisfying as playing with another person, and it lets you explore your more dangerous fantasies without worrying about whether your partner is up to the task. These tips on self-bondage will help you enjoy the sensation of being bound even when there's no one else in the room.
Have Some Real Quality Alone Time
When I’m feeling like I need some quality alone time, my go-to is self-bondage and solo play. There are times when all I want to do is get home, settle in and know that there’s absolutely no chance of anyone else joining me. There’s nothing quite like knowing that you’re under your own control and completely independent—there's a freedom in it, especially if you have self-doubts or trust issues with others. Also known as bound by yourself, self-bondage is when you tie yourself up so you can't escape or move without help from a key holder or someone else who has one.
Self-Bondage Essentials
Okay, so what are some essentials that every self-bondage enthusiast should have? A good way to start is with basic bondage gear like cuffs and rope. These can be used to tie yourself up. Having these on hand opens up lots of possibilities. The next thing you’ll want to consider is how much time you have set aside for play—different bondage restraints take different amounts of time to get in place and/or require special preparation beforehand.
Self-Bondage Techniques
When it comes to having fun all by yourself, you have a few options. One popular option is to play around with BDSM toys and restraints, though sometimes it’s nice just to let your imagination run wild and explore scenarios.
To really enjoy self-bondage, you should also think about some techniques that you can use. Self-bondage involves tying your wrists and ankles together with rope. Use a technique called a lark's head knot in order to tie your hands together, but make sure to leave enough slack in your hands so that you'll be able to get free again after playing. If you want more information on self-bondage techniques, there are many books available and there are also video instructions that can help as well. In general, always play safe when it comes to self-bondage!
