The self-applied paddle
The self-applied paddle may be the single most important concept on this website. It is by far the best way to spank yourself. I had been pursuing self-spanking as a discipline for over seven years, when a group of high-school kids on a municipal bus became psychically aware of what I was doing, and checked it and me out, as kid groups are wont to do with their members, and communicated, "Uh, why don't you try it this way? Wouldn't that work better?"
"Okay, I will, " I said, and went home and made one. When I first used it, I said immediately, "Whoa! I have not felt that since early childhood."
Being able to replicate that part of early childhood formation powerfully equips you for self-formation, shaping yourself into the way you want to be.
These are good dimensions of a self-applied paddle for normal sized persons: the wood should be hardwood (oak, mahogany, birch). A good thickness is thirteen sixteenths of an inch. The width is 7¾ inches. The length is 6 3/32 inches. From the middle of one of the 7 3/4-inch sides rises a handle an inch and an eighth wide, and 5 5/8 inches long. So the shape is generally that of an oblong breadboard with a handle. If you stood it up on end with the handle stuck up into the air, and sawed it off in the middle, horizontally, it would look like the picture above.
Paddling as punishment is applied usually to the bare bent bottom, and the experience is best if you are resting over something, not simply bent over. Here the object of choice is the Japanese meditation seat.
The Meditation Seat
Okay, here’s how to get a good one. Place yourself behind the meditation seat so that the high side is toward you. Pull down your pants at least halfway down your thighs, and get over the seat so that your bottom is conveniently placed, and positioned so that it cannot squirm out of the way. If you are male, you will find there is plenty of room for the male equipment in the hollow frame of the seat.
The actual punishment is applied without pants or underwear.
Technique
A proper spanking requires that the hips be draped over something -- the arm of a stuffed armchair for example -- so that the skin of the buns is stretched taut, the skin pores held submissively open until the spanking is finished. An order such as “hold your skin pores open until I’ve finished,” establishes spanking authority, whether you’re doing it to yourself or another.
Assuming you are right-handed, rest the back part of the left upper arm from the shoulder to the elbow on the floor, twist around slightly and grip the self-applied paddle with the right hand. Grasp the back of the meditation seat with your left hand. Place the paddle on the bottom, right where the spank will land. Now raise the paddle in the air and give the buns an arm-swing, wrist-action smack!, right on the sweet spot. Then give them another. Around five units should bring you to the punishment point, but this is subjective. That it is actually at that point should be a matter of honor. So also with each punishment unit. There should never be more than seven units in total. Remember that the paddle does more damage than you think -- you will become aware of that later in the day and week. One of the ways that spanking discipline works is that we remember it when we sit down. There is a natural tendency to repress punishment, and these constant reminders are really very corrective.
