Balancing Your Feminine and Masculine Energies
How soft, surrendered and relaxed do you feel today? Not very? I hear you.
For women trying to "do it all", whether you're a mother, a wife, starting your own at-home business, trying to get yourself to the gym, working at getting over depression, forcing yourself to make better relationship choices or some combination of these life options...all of this DOING depletes women of their power, creativity and juiciness.
And then the odd Catch 22 is, the one way of "being" that really does rejuvenate women, feminine energy, is what most women are scared will make them weak or not able to accomplish as much.
Another interesting twist on women's views towards femininity is that, as a life & success coach, I find that even women who light up at the notion of the empowered feminine, still have masculine energy as their automatic default mode when they are stressed.
There is a crucial concept in defining women's success that I believe often goes unspoken, and that is: balancing your own feminine AND masculine energy.
In short, your feminine energy is your where your creativity, your intuition, your feelings and your desires live. And your masculine energy is the concrete, logical, linear, task-oriented, structured way of being in the the world.
Maintaining a good balance between both energies is what will ultimately help you in creating your wealth and your life's purpose.
So often I see women do the pendulum swing: either they invest too much into their masculine energy and they, in some sense, "become a man," or they stay in the abstract, focus everything on the feminine side of themselves, and never accomplish their desires.
1 Way to Help You Develop Your Femininity is to:
State clearly, "here is what I want--AND...I will hold this vision, feeling and desire in my body until the next step becomes clear."
Versus...
Stating, "here is what I want--BUT...I have no idea how my desire could manifest, so why bother."
There is a huge difference between the two. The first statement opens you up to a world of possibility. It's an unknown possibility, and the real power here is trusting in the unknown.
The second statement halts your progress before you even try.
I can't say it enough! The #1 reason why most women fail is they get an idea and they pause when they realize they don't know how to proceed.
The way will appear, your way will appear, and it will take a very gentle process of unleashing your true self to find your path. There will be doubt, but that's part of becoming great. Let yourself have your learning curve and know that your desires will continue to sustain and fulfill you.
The foundation for you to succeed is your femininity and you can let that flourish by:
Staying rooted in your body. Be aware of your feelings.
Breathing--going slower and trusting your intuition.
Let your starting place be this place of desire, and then move into using your masculine energy to accomplish your desires, to make them tangible and manifested in our world. We NEED the masculine structure to take care of and to protect our feminine energy, creativity and musings.
A great example of how to coordinate your feminine and masculine energy is the visual of water in a vase filled with beautiful flowers. Your feminine energy is fluid and soft like water. It does, however, need the vase as a container. The vase is representative of your masculine energy, in that it is tangible and concrete and provides structure.
For the flowers to flourish and be nourished and to radiate their fragrances and colors and beauty, they need both the water (the feminine) to nourish them and the vase (the masculine) to contain and support and protect them.
Remember to stay in this balanced place of possibility and potential combined with the concrete and the tangible.
You'll find a great sense of freedom once you embrace the notion that you CAN accomplish your desires from a feminine, soft, yet powerful, Queen-like space.
