Why People Enjoy Playing with Dom/Sub Power Dynamics

Here is why so many people enjoy playing with Dom/Sub power dynamics:

🧠 Transient Hypofrontality (the focused thinking part of our brain has decreased neural activity) is induced, especially through submission. In a capitalistic society where productivity culture is the norm/expectation, allowing your mind and body to rest and be fully present is an act of defiance against the systems that keep us distracted or stuck.

 ⛓️ This is also why BDSM can be considered a healing modality when it's coming from a place of love, care, and awareness (which is the only way it should be, anyway). BDSM and various kinks are powerful tools to release shame and drop societal and self-imposed limitations.
