This podcast is only suitable for adults. Please rate our podcast! It really helps. In this episode we join Michael and Indy as they discuss Archetypes. This term has been used endlessly and is still a little confusing for many to understand - including Indy as you will see. The subject however is relevant especially in the BDSM context and this is lens is what we will be looking in this episode. We begin with Indy describing a common exchange between her and her submissives. Here we can easily see how our projections can become eclipsed by archetypal figures (Warrior, Sadist, King, Magician, Bully, Weakling, ect..) and subsequently how our exchanges become incredibly charged. In its height we see how behind two people in a BDSM play, there can actually be seating archetypes holding the strings. Are we just puppets to deeper familiar patterns playing out again and again over time? Do we know why we seek the opposite shadow form to our own?  Contact us on Instagram: B_D_S_M_Reimagined Music from Uppbeat (free for Creators!): License code: GNHL82KTDKW6KBTH License code: UZ3QGMJGYWGTEZYZ

As everyday people, we were still trying to find the best equipment to use. This does improve over the episodes. In this episode we join Michael and Indy as they confess to their biggest crushes from the past. Indy liked a younger man in her office when she was a very busy executive. Michael was blown away by a blonde haired blue-eyed God one night at a pub. What was it about these crushes that felt so addictive? Indy discusses the phenomenon of limerence, which she encounters in her clinical practice as a psychologist. Limerence is typically experienced as a strong desire for another person who you are compelled to think about, and who you hope likes you too. Limerence also holds a mirror up and asks us, what does this attraction tell me about myself?   In BDSM, limerence is heightened by mystery and limited contact. When Indy plays the dominant, she is only a particular part of herself in role. There is massive scope for limerence to kick in. We amplify the qualities of dominance or submission through the tone of our voice, language we use, what we wear - touching on archetypal forms. This leads to amplified limerence. At first we are captivated by the mystery but then we uncover more and can experience disappointment. Limerence is an acceptable part of being human, which can be enjoyed and understood. When you are in this obsessive state of yearning for someone, it can be helpful ask: Why am I so attracted to this person, and what does this tell me about my own life?  Links: The Beautiful (BBC Radio: In Our Time):  https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p003k9hf   Contact us via email: bdsmreimagined@gmail.com Music from Uppbeat (free for Creators!): License code: GNHL82KTDKW6KBTH License code: UZ3QGMJGYWGTEZYZ

As everyday people, we were still trying to find the best equipment to use. This does improve over the episodes. Join Michael and Indy in this, our last episode of Season 1. Today we discuss the question: can we ever go back to just vanilla relationships? Indy discusses discovering her kinky side this past year, otherwise having been very vanilla in her sex life. Michael has been activated by power dynamics from a young age and has been exploring kink for several years. Together, they ponder what it means to engage in kink and yet be drawn to vanilla relationships - particularly in current times where kink is so much more accessible. Michael is increasingly drawn to vanilla relationships whilst Indy is increasingly disillusioned, having been through a recent separation. She is more interested in consensual non-monogamy. Is a relationship a false refuge? We ultimately decide where we stand on this question of whether we can ever go back to just vanilla...

As everyday people, we were still trying to find the best equipment to use. This does improve over the episodes. Join us in this week's episode when we discuss what it is that really attracts a Dom and sub together. We delve into Michael's fantasy of a most attractive Dom. The Dom who knows what they want, knows what it important and can express this in an assured way. The Dom is unconflicted, and draws Michael in when he experiences deep inner conflicts. Being around the orbit of the Dom is a reprieve from life's problems and contradictions. There is a greater purpose, and the submissive becomes a symbol in the star constellation of the Dominant's power. Indy talks about what is really going for her as the Dom, and the fears she has around intimacy. Life is filled with uncertainty, both the sub and the Dom are seeking ways to resolve that conflict and feel certainty. Subs may believe the Dom to be the answer. The Dom tries to manipulate their reality into something which is unconditional. We are on the precipice of the end at any moment, so how much of a relief it is when we experience the certainty that D/s can bring.
