The Divine Feminine

“She unleashed her inner goddess and became the woman her soul knew she could be.” ― Michelle Schafer     

We live in a world that often values ‘masculine energy’ over feminine, it is the driving force for so much of our day to day lives, and what we deem as ‘success’. The truth is one cannot exist without the other and we cannot know true happiness without embracing both our feminine and masculine energies. 

So what is our feminine energy, or our Divine Feminine? She is sometimes known as Yin energy, Shakti, Kali, or Gaia. She is the nurturing energy that connects us to nature and heals our body, mind and soul.

You feel her when you express your creativity, she is present in your song, your dance and your art. These are pleasures that are often set aside as we strive to move forward and conquer the many hurdles that life throws at us. 

Our Divine Feminine is also our connection to compassion and empathy, and I think we can all agree that the world could stand to gain a little more of both. She reminds us that not all actions must be ‘success’ driven, that we can partake in a task simply to revel in the joy that it brings us. 

Masculine energy is in no way inherently bad, as we said at the start they cannot exist without the other and they balance each other wonderfully. Without our masculine energy we can become needy, co-dependent, and stuck in one place. It helps to drive us forward, but if we are always pushing onwards we forget to make time to enjoy where we are and what we have achieved.  

When was the last time you did something just because it brought you joy, no deadlines, or monetary value, it just sparked happiness? As we move into the festive season and the new year we challenge you to make more time for those moments of joy. 

Women’s Vital Health Retreat

The most profound healing is done together, and this is certainly true for the awe inspiring power of sisterhood. When brought together our Divine Feminine energy is amplified, creating a wonderfully safe and nurturing space to rest, recharge and heal. 

Join us for our annual Women’s Vital Health Retreat. Set amongst mother nature herself, we will reconnect with our feminine energy, take pleasure in activities that nurture the soul, rejuvenate for the year ahead and together lift our sisters.
