What exactly is mindfulness, and how does it relate to kink and BDSM play? The practice of bringing intentional awareness and nonjudgmental acceptance to the present moment can enrich the BDSM experience for everyone. In this workshop, Melody Anne will outline the basics of mindfulness, geek out over scientific research on the interplay of mindfulness and kink, such as how BDSM-induced mindful states differ between tops and bottoms, explore how to bring mindful attention into the dungeon (or the bedroom!), and guide participants through some kinky mindfulness exercises.
