Coming Home to the Feminine
Finding the gold in life comes through the deep inner connections with ourselves. It is our ability to treasure all we are and hold ourselves with reverence and respect. We do this so we can fully bring that richness of connection to the world around us.
A woman’s full connection and love for her body as an extension of her brilliance changes the way she moves throughout the world and the power she can claim and hold by fully embodying and trusting all she is.
Finding the power in full body connection.
Deep connection starts with the self.
Women’s connection to their bodies has been so manipulated and controlled over the ages. From women historically being valued mainly for their bodies and their baby-birthing abilities, with little to no care for their minds. Yet even though women were mostly valued for their bodies, their bodies were not considered their own. Both women’s bodies and minds were largely forsaken by society, and women were not encouraged to connect with either of them.
All the bounty of the person that makes a woman who she is, such as wisdom, intelligence, personality, knowledge, feelings, etc.
​
Although women have made huge headway in being recognized for our brilliant minds, and have been able to deeply connect with ourselves on their level, one of the key aspects toward the empowerment of women, fully developing the body, mind connection has been missing.
​
I have seen in my family, friends, in the women around me, and most importantly in myself, that so many women are disconnected from their bodies, not even allowing themselves to feel the power coursing through it, trying to intellectualize all that are and not embody it.
​
Claiming all you are.
For societal powers (which were and still largely are, controlled by men) to stay in control, they need to keep the power out of the hands of the people. How? By making us feel disconnected from ourselves and our own sources of power. This particularly came across through the control of women and their bodies and minds. One of the main ways that this happened is how much women's connections to their bodies have been abused and manipulated for the sake of taking control and that person's own sense of power out of their hands.
​
And we have made progress. Our bodies are our choice. Our mothers, sisters, daughters, and friends fought hard for the world to understand this. They are still fighting hard for this today.
​
​
Our bodies are so much more than our choice. They are our connection to our power. The portal to the magic we bring to the world.
Are you ready?
Women are finally being accepted into society for our brilliant minds. But we bring so much more to the picture than that. To be accepted for our minds, we have had to become more and more masculine, to be accepted into the masculinized world of work and business (see this blog post to know what I mean by masculine vs feminine). In this world, the values come from structure, determination, and logic, free from the deeper flow, understanding, and connection that the feminine brings. It is about their determination to sit in your desk chair from 9-5, no matter what your body feels. Our body's feelings and experiences have taken a back seat in the world of information we are presented with each day that our mind has to sort through. But the time for change and re-claiming all we are is now. By starting to recognize all the little parts and expressions of yourself, you allow yourself to more fully grow into all you are and can be. Are you ready to start listening to the knowledge that wants to come through to you so you can fully claim all you are? Are you ready to start practicing?
