Flogging is the absolute best stress reliever! When I am stressed, a flogging can reduce me to tears and even to a total break down into sobbing. When it’s over and Sir is holding me, I feel totally relaxed, all my muscles devoid of tension. When I’m not stressed, the world just disappears and I can just feel, just enjoy the sensations, just feel floaty too sometimes. It’s wonderful!
@CelestialSilence Good luck in finding a partner to deliver the flogging you need!

Once we found the right tool for the job (More like a dust brush instead of something like a cat toy on a stick), and now that I have the technique that my wife seems to enjoy quite a bit: I have found it to be a great way for me to decompress. Her reaction when I get it right is something I enjoy (as does she) quite a bit!

Any kind of session is good for stress as it creates a more immediate stress. Being flogged puts stress on you as in pain, possibly embarrassment (depending on the condition), discomfort. This stress overrides all other stresses going on. When this stress stops, and the endorphins are flowing, all other stresses go away as well.

This is why I love this. I do and teach meditation, and it is good for stress, and keeping stress away. But if one is stressed, it is hard to get down and meditate.

Flogging immediately takes your attention away from your problems by giving you new, immediate problems. Once it is over, the other problems while not going away permanently, weigh a lot less on you.
