You don’t have to dig deep to read of the new unfolding of the feminine in all of us. Balanced feminine, not femme fatale, weak and helpless.

For me? I got so tired of pushing myself to work, work, work, to exceed my own expectations, and to get things done that I spun out in exhaustion, finally realizing this way of pushing, this way of forcing and this way of trying to control my own outcome is outdated and unsustainable.

So I decided to walk my own talk and sink into the feminine.

Powerful feminine – as in doing what we need to do, but then letting go and letting things flow to us. Letting life birth through us.

Ever try to catch a bug in a swimming pool? The more we push forward chasing after it, the faster it moves away from us, right?

Well, life works the same way and this old paradigm masculine pushing just isn’t sustainable anymore.

Just look at our world.
Aren’t you tired?
Aren’t you exhausted from trying to figure it all out?

I’m not saying we give up, stay in bed all day and do nothing…I’m suggesting we do what we need to do, but just let go a little and stop caring so damn much on how it all unfolds for us (dare I say trust a little more?)

Take that walk. Take that nap. Let your kids go to school in unmatched clothes if you’re short on time, save the dishes until tonight…..stop caring SOOO much that you care yourself into a control freak environment like our world has become.

Sit in nature. Contemplate. Don’t return that text or that call, oh so fast.

The hyper-vigilant, immediate response, perfection, driven, make it happen sort of world will be there when you come back to it.

And when you do dip your toe back into it for a bit.
You’ll know better.
You’ll be wiser.
And, you’ll look younger.
