Sometimes visual things as simple as these help get us into the mood a lot quicker, although of course the mental side of it is an issue that you'll need to try and work with too. And well, they say practice makes perfect :-) They also say nobody's perfect so don't worry about that either haha!
I suppose I already do this. All jewelry is removed... earrings, necklace, bracelets. Also, there is a specific lotion I use prior to a session. Other things that are always done is I shave, use a pummice stone and parafin wax on my feet, and I always paint my toe nails. The day prior to a scene I actually prepare a lot. I want to always be at my best for Him. It never fails though, that once He locks my collar on, all rebellion is gone. That is was the number one thing is that makes me scarlet. So, maybe in time just doing the little things will automatically throw me into scarlet mode. I suppose you can call it my preparation process.

In the beginning, he was giving me tasks to accomplish through the week and now that I think about it, that actually always kept me partially in the slave mindset. I think maybe its time to restart that process.

I really feel that I'm doing better with all of it now than I was a couple months ago. I tend to lose patience and grow frustrated.

Oh! Our play sessions were fabulous We had a hard play session on Saturday and a softer session on Sunday. As always, we were both left smiling.
