WORKSHOP Dossie Easton 6PM to 7:45PM
ABOUT FLYING ON THE WINGS OF PAIN
Dossie Easton, author of Radical Ecstasy: SM Journeys to Transcendence, will teach a variety of methods of exploring ecstatic states of consciousness through intense sensation and pain.
Some bottoms can ride pain as if it were a wave, full of joy, laughing and giggling, flying on a magic journey with their tops, possibly screaming and writhing but obviously loving it. Ever wonder how they do it? This workshop will demonstrate that there is as much skill and art in bottoming as there is in topping. We will look at breathing, body tension, ways of receiving pain, ways of delivering it, timing, pacing, rhythm and all the other tools that tops and bottoms employ to travel with pain to amazing destinations. Participants will get the chance to explore a shared breath and some painful sensations, giving and receiving, with due regards for consent and boundaries.
All exercises will be suitable for any level of experience and any pain tolerance - no one will be asked to do anything beyond what they want to do.
Please wear loose, comfortable clothing and bring a pad, a blanket, a zafu, a pillow - whatever will make you comfortable, we will be working on the floor. For those who are uncomfortable working on the floor, all exercises can also be enjoyed in chairs. Please also bring a blindfold.
This will be fun - trust me. Crazy, but fun.
ABOUT DOSSIE EASTON
Dossie Easton, a long time player on the San Francisco S/M scene and well-known killer bottom, is co-author with Janet Hardy of The Ethical Slut, The New Bottoming Book and The New Topping Book, When Someone You Love Is Kinky, a book designed to give to outsiders to inform them about our lifestyle, and Radical Ecstasy: SM Journeys to Transcendence. The second edition of The Ethical Slut was released in April of 2009, bigger and better and all round sluttier.
Dossie is a licensed psychotherapist working with individuals, couples and more in her private practice, with a particular interest in how SM journeys into Shadow can bring old wounds into the healing light of consciousness and give them a shot of life force in the form of good hot sex.
An active sex radical since 1961, Dossie was a member of the first Board of Directors of the Society of Janus in San Francisco in 1974. In the eighties under the name of Hidebound Leatherware, she had a business crafting whips and restraints. Currently she makes her home in the mountains north of San Francisco, travels around to teach at conferences all over the world, and spends her nonexistent free time hiking the hills declaiming filthy poetry to the vultures and hosting outrageous pajama parties. You can check out her website at www.dossieeaston.com.
