Can pain become prayer? Can spanking be a spiritual practice? In this episode of The Erotic Realm, M speaks with Iya (MousyMistress) — a mystic Domme, minister, and self-described sacred spanko — about the healing, transcendent, and psychological dimensions of erotic pain. We discuss: • How erotic discipline and spanking became a path to self-knowledge. • Why Jung’s shadow work applies to kink and erotic healing. • What research says about pain as emotional release and transcendence. • Iya’s live guided meditation for entering your Dominant self. • How kink bridges spirituality, psychology, and power. • The difference between cruelty and care in sacred sadism. • A message for anyone seeking to integrate their desire and divinity.
