Care and Nurture for the Submissive - A Must Read for Any Woman in a BDSM Relationship
Submission can be described by a lot of words but “easy” isn’t one of them. Discovering and honoring your desire to submit takes courage, strength and passion. Learning to follow the lead and rhythm set by another, and stretching your limits to accommodate training and service can challenge and exhaust you.
The discipline to hold your tongue, retrieve your paddle, or wait around endlessly while knot after knot is being tied as part of a bondage ritual drains your energy. Submission stretches, taxes, pushes, and exposes your body and soul to the whim and desire of another. Submissive women need support, care and nurture to continue on this journey in a healthy fashion.
"Care and Nurture for the Submissive" offers tips, understandings, and pathways to tend the fragile and beautiful souls of submissive women. Self-care is not selfish; it is essential. Only when you are taking care of yourself as a healthy, whole being can you give that self to another with a full heart and free joy.

Can only agree with Review by Aliree in Amazon 11 August 2013:
Great Guide for the Submissive Woman
I learned a lot from this book. My husband and I have experimented with BDSM and I prefer being the submissive. This book helped me to understand why communication with your partner is so important. I learned that by sharing my past with my partner it can help our relationship grow and improve our trust in each other. It tells you specific ways to communicate with your partner so that you both understand your limits, wants and needs. There was also great information on keeping your self safe if you may be looking for a partner. I also learned that I need to seek out other submissive women because it's important to have friends who can understand this part of my life and they won't judge me when I share my thoughts and feelings. I am going to have my husband read this book so that he can learn more about communicating with me.
