Hello community, this time I want to tell you about something that I have been trying for a while and I never had the courage to reveal it, but this time it is different, I am talking about shibari, before doing this type of practices my view of them was totally negative, I saw exclusively oppression, it seemed unusual to me that there were people who volunteered to be subjected without further ado to the rigor of the ropes. I could not understand or accept it, so I had to resort to my greatest resource: the exploration, first investigating the origins of the practice, they were just what I believed, a method of torture for captured enemies, becoming In sexual practice, I know that the history of shibari is more than interesting and I like to go deeper by sharing it, but the post would take forever.

Each shibarite prepares their ropes with great care and sandalwood oil, they soften and tighten them, taking great care and affection, it is something adorable to see

After this first approach from the mental plane, of rationalizing what I learned and making friends with the idea that it is now a consensual practice, talking about the subject with a friend, she tells me that she is a shibarite apprentice (that's how they are referred to). people who tie) and if I wanted to try she offered to tie me, it was also good for her to practice. I fully trust her hands since in addition to being a friend, I also took courses with her on stress management, organic cyclicity, and so on.

Shibari is, after all, such an intimate practice that I had never written about it other than some lost poem. Because each session is a unique experience in itself and touches intimate fibers of consciousness, proprioception, what we allow ourselves and what we are willing to allow others, I am even learning to set limits, very borderline, I needed to reach that my finger almost fell asleep to say that a tie was bothering me, imagine the imaginary edges of the borders of contact between ties that I have crossed so as not to make others uncomfortable, how many emotional fingers I will have lost.

What makes me want to share the experience today is that this Saturday was my first suspension, and the feeling I highly recommend to everyone, if they have the opportunity to offer themselves as ukete (this is how people who are tied) and do a practice in a place of trust, do not waste the opportunity, I was playing tangled in the ropes for a long time, suspended from a metal ring that allows you to spin and the sensation of floating in the air while feeling completely supported by the knots.

I cannot tell you about the experiences because it is something wonderfully unique for each one, but be encouraged, and I tell you, I was totally against these practices. I not only recommend shibari, but also taking the worthy task of testing your preconceptions about any situation, and putting yourself in the shoes of what we are not able to elucidate with the naked eye, to learn to appreciate the diversity that we constitutes humans.

I want to learn the art of shibarite to Being able to generate that feeling of fullness for someone else, I was completely aware of what was happening in my body, like a first instance of a tantric, Zen state.
A friend saw this photo and told me that the only thing she was thinking about was cutting all the ropes to get me out of there 😆 She never tried shibari, if I were her I would have thought the same

Thanks a lot for reading, really means a lot for me!
