Roll back many weeks — my friend MindnBody approached me about doing an Energy Pull. I was excited about the prospect and accepted without any hesitation.
Our variation was simple: two needles in each back, tied off at a central point. We would pull back-to-back and improvise from there. Neither of us are small men, but I had visions of MindnBody dragging me around the scene area like a little man-doll.
We got the hooks, needles and required supplies. The date was set. SLCKink kindly agreed to handle the piercings and safety the scene while DarlingEvil was ready with the camera.
8 gauge hooks, pulling
“The Men in Kilts Herculean feats of Man Strength Energy Pull” was born and set for a Saturday play party in February.
I’ll say this…the actual piercing was the most painful part, but was not particularly bad. As with most situations where needles are involved, it’s much easier to imagine the worst. The feeling was a definite rush…seeing the hooks sticking out of my own back made me laugh. As a test I had a few people tug on them.
The twinge was definitely there. I wondered how it would feel to have the pull of two bodies stretching my skin.
Oddly? It felt like a pull-string to focus. The further in I leaned, the deeper into a calm center I went. Pain was minimal and distant. Muscles flexed and strained as I fought to keep my position. I leaned against the pull of MindnBody’s body. Feet anchored, arms outstretched, I leaned forward — trusting and letting go.
Down deep and centered, the world frayed away as two points in my back became all that defined the passing moments. There was no pain. There was no panic or worry. There was energy passing through four hooks, straining cord and two individuals. Nothing else mattered as I floated, leaning forward in a static fall.
This is an experience I recommend to anyone. Amazing and surprisingly powerful…spiritually intense and incredibly personal. The words I’ve placed here do little to describe it.
