New page

A slave journal is a tool used in [[slave training]] and [[power exchange]] dynamics that is a place to record thoughts and feelings of the [[s-type]], especially those thoughts and feelings that are in concerns to their [[submissive]] nature, actions, protocols and other aspects of power exchange dynamics.

Generally this tool is designed to bring about new levels of self awareness as well as to share that awareness with the [[d-type]].

Depending on the negotiated dynamics, a [[d-type]] may or may not have access to the journal. If access is [[negotiated]] then the [[d-type]] will often make use of the tool to help better direct the [[s-type]] in the future.

== [[Best Practices]] ==

There is a commonly understood rule that the journal is a tool for insight to the [[s-type]] and their [[slave mentality]] thus to ensure continued full disclosure the [[d-type]] must ensure the [[s-type]] can feel safe communicating through this medium. In that spirit there is a general best practices rule never to punish anything that is written in the journal, and more appropriately, that the [[d-type]] must review the information presented in a responsible fashion.

=== Emotional Journal Entries ===

During periods of distress, angst, anger, frustration, insolence and other emotional difficulties on the part of the [[s-type]] it is often considered beneficial for the [[s-type]] to write their feelings out until they run out of feelings within their journal, then organize their thoughts in a presentable fashion and return to discuss the situation with the [[d-type]] they serve. This might be at the order of the [[d-type]] or at the [[s-type]]'s recognition that their emotions are proving to be a challenge.

=== Daily Journal Entries ===

In many cases it may be beneficial to have a structured daily or weekly report to be written into the journal. The exact specifications will vary based on the needs of the [[relationship]] dynamic, however some generally useful things you may wish to record in the journal are:

*1+ dislikes about the day.
*3+ likes about the day.
*1+ recognitions of the [[d-type]]'s efforts and work in the relationship, potentially the favorite one.
*1+ recognitions of the [[s-type]]'s efforts and services in the relationship, potentially the favorite one.
*Any resentments that occurred inside or outside of the relationship dynamic.
*1+ things to be proud about.
*1+ ways in which the [[s-type]] improve and/or maintain itself that day.
*A statement of renewal and devotion to the relationship
*Any ways in which the [[s-type]] failed to complete an obligation.
*Any obligations for the next day that are planned to be achieved by the [[s-type]].
*Any special information that needs to be relayed based upon the specific needs of the [[power exchange]] dynamic.
