Good Afternoon - Lynn here.
Popping in to say hi and a Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there! It’s a beautiful day to soak up some well-deserved love and attention.
As we celebrate all the moms today, I feel it's important to acknowledge all the women who nurture, advocate, and believe in us. Our mothers, grandmothers, sisters, daughters, and friends who naturally embody unconditional love.
Unconditional love reflects the profound energy of the divine feminine.
This week's energy tip: honoring and nurturing your divine feminine
The term "divine feminine" refers to a sacred and nurturing energy often associated with the feminine qualities in all of us. Intuition, compassion, and creativity are a few that come to mind.
It's a powerful and loving energy force that can be accessed by anyone, regardless of gender, and can help individuals connect with their emotions, inner strength, and wisdom.
Both masculine and feminine energies exist within all individuals. If you're familiar with acupuncture, Chinese medicine, or yoga, you might have heard the terms Yin and Yang. Yin represents the feminine energies in life, while Yang represents the masculine energies.
Achieving harmony requires balancing both energies, a task that may be simple but not always easy.
At times we may find ourselves resisting and suppressing our healthy and strong divine feminine nature.
Society has overly praised the masculine culture. We’ve gotten used to loudly applauding our productivity, ambition, leadership, and competition, while the subtle strength of our feminine side can easily be shadowed or overlooked.
Embracing our divine feminine energy doesn’t mean you need to start burning incense, practice yoga, and charge up your crystals? Although I love to do all those things!
Embracing our feminine side simply means acknowledging the qualities that make us great listeners, empaths, and creators.
When we nurture our feminine nature, we tap into a well of strength and creativity that helps us navigate life's challenges with more ease and grace.
Here are 5 ways to tap into more of your divine feminine nature within:
Unconditional Love
Love is not rare. Unconditional love is. - Amy Shock
Love is the most powerful force in the Universe. When we love, we give and receive simultaneously. Unconditional love is a type of love that is not based on any conditions or requirements. It’s love freely given with no expectations or demands in return.
This form of love is accepting, forgiving, and compassionate, and acknowledges the worth and value of the person or thing being loved.
Create Art
A creative life is an amplified life. It's a bigger life, a happier life, an expanded life, and a hell of a lot more interesting life” - Elizabeth Gilbert
Life gets hectic. It’s easy to lose touch with our creative side amidst all the chaos. However, taking the time to engage in artistic activities such as dancing, painting, singing, or exploring other talents can rejuvenate our gratitude for life. Tapping into our creativity gives our daily routines some inspiration to stay energized. So, unleash your inner artist and let the positive vibes flow!
Connect with Nature
"I took a walk in the woods and came out taller than the trees.” -Henry David Thoreau
Being with nature is a powerful way to tap into the divine. Walking barefoot in the park, gazing at the moon, taking a dip in the ocean, or working in the garden lets us recharge and find inner balance. The next time you’re feeling stressed or disconnected, take a few moments to ground yourself with Mother Earth - she will appreciate it.
Share a Meal
“A recipe has no soul. You as the cook must bring soul to the recipe.” - Thomas Keller
Preparing a meal with love and sharing it is an act of service. You are nourishing your own mind and body as you cook for others. Whether it’s for your family, friends, neighbors, or the homeless, providing another person with something to eat will strengthen your feminine energy.
Serve a Cause
“It is not enough to be compassionate; you must act.” -Dalai Lama
Moms are the ultimate givers – they show us what it means to put others first expecting nothing in return. We can all tap into our inner caregiver by treating the world as our symbolic child.
By engaging in acts of kindness such as volunteering at shelters, tutoring at libraries, or donating blood, we provide love and support to those in need and create a positive environment for growth. By nurturing others, we also nurture ourselves.
….. until next time many many sweet blessings.
Love + Wellness to you!!
