Embracing Feminine Beauty: Self-Care, Perfectionism, and Abundance in DS Dynamics
Free gift: 7 Tips for a rock-solid D/s Dynamic - visit https://infinitedevotion.com/7-tips
In this episode of the Dom Sub Devotion podcast, we explore the intricate relationship between feminine beauty, self-care, and the dominant-submissive dynamic within our 24/7 DS marriage.
Inspired by an email Dawn received from a list that sheā€™s on, we tackle modern beauty standards, the pressure of perfectionism exacerbated by social media, and the 'crunchy' community's approach to self-care.
This conversation explores overcoming anxieties around beauty routines to achieving self-acceptance and celebrating personal beauty. We highlight the balance between health and beauty, the meditative and ritualistic aspects of self-care, and the significance of presence and authenticity.
Practical advice for both men and women is shared, emphasizing self-acceptance, reducing social media influence, and creating space for joy in beauty practices. The episode provides a comprehensive look at how empathy, mutual respect, and intentional actions foster beauty and abundance within our D/s relationship.
