REGENT (BALLROOM III) · In person
<p>Most of us have heard the phrase “sit with your feelings,” a vague instruction often used in the mental health field. However, we are not always taught how to do that, or the tools are too normative and inaccessible. In this workshop, Stabbie aims to combine their lived experience and mental health training to explore ways to utilize kink as a conduit for sitting with our feelings. We will look at the different mindsets we create in play, the tools we already have, and how they are applicable to understanding and navigating our emotions. The experiences shared throughout this workshop are from a bottoming and right side of the slash perspective.</p>
