There is a big shift happening. Can you feel it?
In the past, we approached life from a masculine perspective of trying to control our world … our resources, our circumstances and the people around us, in hopes of having more wealth and more power.
Have you noticed it's just not working as well anymore? Banks and businesses have tumbled, people are out of work, many have lost their homes and are exhausted, scared and confused.
It's time for a change.
It's time to let go of the old paradigm of domination and embrace a new, co-creative feminine power.
Below are 10 components of feminine power:
1. It's a power that comes from within. Instead of attempting to force, manipulate or control the people or circumstances around you, you tap into your energetic power inside, including your beliefs, emotions, thoughts and intuition.
2. Respecting the power of your emotions, you know they attract the circumstances of your life. You are comfortable dropping out of your head and into your body at any time, "authentically" feeling in that moment. You're aware of the impact of your "false" emotions, such as self-pity, jealousy and blame, and how they create and keep you stuck in drama.
3. Recognize you are a spiritual being, having a physical experience. You are willing to tap into this presence through meditation, time in nature, solitude, enchantment and other avenues of inner connection.
4. Embrace and engage your imagination and creativity, because it's fun and it feels good. You do this by inviting your free inner child to show you the way.
5. Surrender to gratitude, no matter what may be going on around you. This doesn't mean to ignore other emotions such as sadness or anger, but be willing to see and receive the "gift" in any situation and embrace the "learning" from any person in your life.
6. Face and feel the fear, the grief, the anger and the resistance that confronts you (we all have it), with love and acceptance, allowing it to move through you.
7. Nurture and heal yourself and your wounds in ways you have hoped and wanted others to do for you in the past.
8. Rather than compete, prove or win in the desire of earning more self-esteem, recognition and power, choose to co-create and support others in an effort to serve more people, knowing there is plenty to go around.
9. Before speaking, acting or reacting, insert a pause and connect with the authentic reasons of WHY you are making this choice in the first place. One way to do this is to ask, "Is this choice coming from my head (ego) or my heart (Self).
10. Create your life through intention. Like Martin Luther King, Jr. so brilliantly modeled, dream of a powerful future rather than only setting goals and creating action plans. This is not to say that action is unnecessary. Of course, taking action is vital to getting most things done in life. Yet, the feminine way is done from the inside out. First, get clear with where you are going and why as you set the intention. Next, let go of limiting beliefs and fears, and trust in "This or something better, with harm to none." As you follow the path of least resistance, notice what and who shows up around you. Notice the messages or "whispers" around you. What is the Universe trying to tell you? As things become clearer, you take inspired action, asking for help along the way and receiving with ease and grace.
When we abandon the above, we are giving in to the wounded ego's lie of fear and isolation, no pain, no gain. The wounded ego says, "You better get to work, now! If we don't take it, someone else will. Don't waste your time on such airy-fairy, frivolous behavior."
But actually, the feminine way is what we need, especially today. If we are going to survive, even thrive in difficult times, it's important to work together, to co-create a world of peace, abundance, hope, possibilities, opportunities and love. We really are all connected.
Isn't it time to ask, "How can I help?" rather than, "How can I win?"
