The moon is full and so is my heart. Wow, I was absolutely not expecting this femininity journey to take root the way it did. And this full moon is bringing up so many beautiful thoughts and emotions for me to sift through and learn from. I’m not quite ready to share all my thoughtsContinue reading “Empowered by Femininity”

Appreciation
“The most important thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother.” -Theodore Hesburgh Creating a home where a woman is free to become the best version of herself is one of the most important things you can show your children. This journey to my best self is solitary and veryContinue reading “Appreciation”
Basket Full of Us
On this journey, I’ve learned to love in ways I have always wished to be loved. It was much easier when I was young before all the betrayals and heartbreaks. But I’m happy to feel myself returning to a place where I can love whether I’m intimately close and from a distance. It has beenContinue reading “Basket Full of Us”
Femininity, I Remember You
Femininity, I remember you. Now that I’m learning more about my cycle, I’m realizing that everything should be more of a weekly rotation. It’s not about going hard in the am 3-5 times a week and resting on the weekend, like we’ve all been taught. While men have daily phases (morning, noon, and night), womenContinue reading “Femininity, I Remember You”
Intentional Gentleness
“In my 40th year, I feel like I’ve only just mastered the art of not being too hard on myself regarding what I feel I ‘should’ be doing.” -Casey Powney Taken from Louise Haywood-Schiefer’s artcle “I Accept Myself for Who I Am’: People at 40 on What Life has Taught Them so Far.” This fall,Continue reading “Intentional Gentleness”
Our Inner Mindset
“The most life-shaping choices we can make are those of our mindset — we can choose the best orientation toward the world, we can choose the best orientation toward each other, but where we seem to struggle the most is orienting with clarity and compassion toward our own lives, toward the choice we have inContinue reading “Our Inner Mindset”
Last Day of April
I am totally easing my way through this last day of April. Will that slow down time? Probably not, but it increases my well-being. Rushing around isn’t good for your heart or your brain (especially during this upcoming finals week). This week, as we transition into a new month, I’ll be taking walks, sipping butterflyContinue reading “Last Day of April”
Easing My Way Through Spring
Affirmation: “I welcome my emerging visions without rushing them into action.” With a million things to do to prep for summer and other transitions coming up in my life, my goal this week is to take things slow and stay in the present. Some things I had to remind myself this evening: I have everythingContinue reading “Easing My Way Through Spring”
Jung on Feminine
“Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.” -Carl Jung I’ve been listening to Carl Jung videos on YouTube to explore his idea of femininity. He theorized the Anima and Animus. He says the Anima is the divine feminine in aContinue reading “Jung on Feminine”
When A Woman Stands Up For Herself
“Each time a woman stands up for herself, she stands up for all women.” –Maya Angelou I don’t think women should be pressured to stand up, but I do think that the women who do choose to stand up should recognize the liberation of their choice, no matter how big or small. I like toContinue reading “When A Woman Stands Up For Herself”
