Essentially Slave Training means to adjust the slave’s core attitudes and behaviors to be more in tune with the Master’s attitude and way of living. The process of Slave Training needs to be consensual and negotiated. The type of mental training within BDSM has to do with the practice of changing the way the individual thinks, perceives, or behaves, consciously, and subconsciously based on the will of another for the pleasure of both the submissive, and the Dominant.
