Surrendering into the Feminine

The balancing act between feminine and masculine energy has been on my heart a lot lately. You may be wondering what this has to do with periods or menstrual cycles...trust me it has a lot to do with them. Understanding our menstrual cycles and beginning to live life in flow with them is one of the best expressions of feminine energy. Since the majority of us haven’t ever learned how our cycles work and how to support them, or even our anatomy below the belt we are so disconnected from this source! 

We also live in a world that was designed for men by men

The intention with speaking about feminine and masculine energy is to bring awareness to the difference between the two, but to not lose sight of that even as a woman we want to have a healthy relationship with both.

Let’s think about it...the moment we wake up and begin our day it becomes a series of tasks to complete, accomplishments that need to be done, and then we rest and do it all over again in the same manner the next day for … well forever unless you begin to connect with your feminine. As a woman who has lived in that masculine dominated world, I was exhausted and felt disconnected from my life. 

The more time I have taken to slow down and connect to my femininity I have found greater ease in all areas of my life. I get that it seems crazy that by doing less and tuning into our intuitions we can actually be more successful and powerful than ever...we feel like we should have to grind all day every day to get to where we want to be but I promise you that isn’t true.

Take a look at some characteristics that fall into masculine vs feminine.

Here is what masculine energy looks like:

  • Logical thought
  • Mind
  • Decisive action
  • Risk-taking
  • Achieving
  • Controlling
  • Competitive
  • Intellectual
  • Giving

Here is what feminine energy looks like:

  • Intuitive feeling
  • Senses
  • Creativity
  • Nurturing
  • Experiencing
  • Being
  • Collaborative
  • Expressive
  • Receiving

If you are feeling disconnected from your body and the power that lies within it then I encourage you to take some time to start connecting to your feminine side and lean into that energy. 

How you can tap into your feminine energy:

  • Dancing
  • Taking a bath (throw in some salts and essential oils, light some candles)
  • Sensual touch
  • Being open to receiving
  • Playing
  • Feeling emotions that come up
  • Experience pleasure

Lastly, I want to mention how I believe there is space for all humans to nurture their relationship with the balance between feminine and masculine, and by learning to appreciate the feminine that the world would be greatly changed for the better. Recently I have seen multiple women in my life skip past this in handling difficult situations in their lives. How you choose to heal and show up is your own responsibility and I do not judge anyone for what they feel as right. 

What I have noticed is this cultural condition that we are so scared to slow down, to slow down and feel and heal. It’s easier if we just keep busy, we just keep going, focus on something external in our lives we can fix instead. Ladies, our bodies and our minds need us and part of that is slowing down, disconnecting from distractions, and tuning into what our soul is asking for. I know this process isn’t easy, I know it comes with so many feelings that will cause emotions to rush over you like a waterfall. But I encourage you to find a way in which you can start to open up to this part of your life and take care of your energy in this way. I think you’ll be amazed at how things unravel for you. 

Sending you lots of love on your journey.

With love, intention, and happy periods,

Madalyn
