Join Goddess Roze this week as she talks about Sensory Deprivation. Full of erotic potential, Sensory Deprivation can be an intense experience, and is a personal favorite of mine. Don’t miss this presentation, which is sure to be engaging and informative!
Silent, restrained and suspended in time. Head swathed in black leather, ears deaf to all but their heartbeat—throbbing with anticipation! What’s next? I can’t hear it! The lash lands. I can’t see it! The prick of a needle. Where did that come from? Flames lick the flesh. Oh my God! Sensory deprivation is the limiting or completely depriving a subject of the use of one or more of their senses. By doing so, you can increase sensitivity to physical stimulation. Goddess Roze will delve into this delectable topic showing and demonstrating a variety of devices and methods to create intense play and tap into the heart of darkness.
