- 0:46It's about how safe your nervous system feels.
- 0:49And in this video we're gonna be sharing feminine embodiment practices to help you regulate your nervous system.

- 1:43Thank you.
- 1:44Because it's gonna talk more about, uh, nervous system regulation and how to get your mind and your body on board with what it is that you actually desire.
- 1:52So I will leave the link for that, uh, below because once you understand that, then you can start manifesting things pretty quickly.
- 1:58You will shock yourself, uh, how quickly you can manifest things because I went from single for 15 years, burned out from a business, um, not living my dream of living in other countries.
- 2:10To meeting my husband in four months, moving to Mexico, starting two new businesses, one of which is this one that brings a lot of passive income into the household in a way that honors my feminine energy.
- 2:22So if I could get that done right, then um, you can get things done too.
- 2:27But the key is.
- 2:29Regulating that nervous system and that hustle to harmony Masterclass is gonna be much it.
- 2:35It's gonna go deeper into a lot of the stuff that I'm talking about today and explain the neuroscience and the brain and how it works.
- 2:41So.
- 2:41I will leave that below.
- 2:43So here's why.
- 2:43Nervous system regulation is the key, uh, to feminine energy in women, but I would just say the key to just chilling the F out period, because most people these days need to do this.
- 2:54Most people are running around the world with totally dysregulated nervous systems because there's constantly an assault on our nervous systems going on, whether it's the news or social media, or people in our lives or us just not taking care of ourselves.
- 3:07So.
- 3:08The thing about the feminine, right?
- 3:09Because we, we talk to women mostly on this channel.
- 3:13People who, uh, consider themselves more feminine energy.
- 3:17She cannot thrive when she is in fight or flight.
- 3:20Ask me how I know that, right?
- 3:22Because I was, the last time I was really in fight or flight, and I mean like in a big, big way, I lost everything, right?
- 3:28And I had to start all over again because my body did not feel safe.
- 3:32So when your body doesn't feel safe, and in that case it didn't feel safe earning.
- 3:37An f ton of money that I was earning at the time, it's nearly impossible to receive.
- 3:42'cause you're gonna find ways to shut it down, uh, in order for your body to feel safe again, this is typically when you see people sabotaging.
- 3:49Usually it's because something in their nervous system does not feel safe, right?
- 3:53It's like everything's going good, you're making good money.
- 3:56And then.
- 3:57Fence pops up or everything's good and you're making good money, and you find ways to spend the money because you feel so uncomfortable having the money in the bank or your relationship is going good, but maybe it's going too good and now you go pick a fight.
- 4:10Right?
- 4:10That's kind of what we're talking about here.
- 4:12In terms of nervous system regulation, and what we wanna do is we wanna start teaching our nervous system that it feels safe to receive the things that we want in life.
- 4:20Because you'd be surprised, like most people are totally okay with a mediocre life.
- 4:25Most people are okay with baseline safety.
- 4:28But they never get past the baseline safety because they don't understand this about their nervous systems.
- 4:35And regulation isn't just about reducing stress, although obviously it really helps with that.
- 4:41And when we reduce stress, we make better decisions.
- 4:44It's also about activating your feminine essence, because when you're more grounded, you are more attractive.
- 4:50And I've done other videos about that.
- 4:52So let's get into some of these feminine embodiment practices that regulate the nervous system.
- 4:57This is about three to five practices that you can start using.
- 5:01So number one is ground.
- 5:04Grounding is my fve, uh, because I have a lot of, like, I tend to live up here a lot because I was raised by people, uh, a woman who was in fight or flight, and my grandmother also was.
- 5:15And like I said, most people are, and they don't know about this stuff.
- 5:18So if I'm not careful, I would spend a whole lot of time up in the clouds and in my head and, um, thinking of worst case scenarios and all kinds of stuff, right?
- 5:27So I have to be very.
- 5:29Intentional about getting back grounded and into the present moment.
- 5:34I have to be super intentional about this stuff.
- 5:38Otherwise, I am liable to just.
- 5:40Woo.
- 5:41Right.
- 5:41And then get triggered and get set off like most people, right?
- 5:45So one of the things that I like to do is I like to ground myself.
- 5:48And one of the ways that you can do this is by bringing in your senses.
- 5:51So maybe you touch soft fabric, right?
- 5:53Maybe you smell essential oils.
- 5:55Um, I typically have a candle going, it went out, but I usually have a candle going here when I'm working and things like that.
- 6:02Uh, this one is.
- 6:04Rose, geranium, one of my faves.
- 6:07I got that at Walmart in Ahhee.
- 6:09Uh, but basically, um, you know, sometimes it's like changing a temperature, right?
- 6:13Like maybe this is cold, and I'm like feeling really heated, so let me touch something cold.
- 6:18That could be a way of doing it.
- 6:20Um, as well.
- 6:21It could be when you're sipping tea, to just do it very slowly and really take it in when you're eating, doing the same thing.
- 6:28I mean, how many of you are going out, out here working so much and doing so much that you forget to eat?
- 6:33Let's be real because that used to be me.
- 6:37Uh, so I get it.
- 6:38So it's things like that, right?
- 6:40It's being slower and softer and more intentional.
- 6:43I also like to visualize myself grounding.
- 6:45So I will visualize, uh, first an anchor depending on how.
- 6:50Up in the clouds I'm feeling, or how much in my head I'm feeling, it's like whoosh, right straight down to the corner of the earth.
- 6:56I will then envision tree root roots and then depending if I'm really needing some grounding that day, then I might also envision a sort of like pyramid coming out of me of obsidian or tourmaline or smokey quartz or some very grounding stone.
- 7:10This is like the big guns when I'm really feeling ungrounded and that tends, uh, to work.
- 7:17The second thing is breath work, right?
- 7:19So one of the great things about our breath is we can regulate our nervous systems with our breath.
- 7:23So did you know that when you just exhale longer than you inhale, you already start to calm down your body?
- 7:30Well, now, you know.
- 7:33So one of the things that you wanna do is you could do, um, it's called different things.
- 7:37It could be called box breathing, circular breathing, but you inhale for four, pause for four, exhale for four.
- 7:45Pause for four and do it again over and over and over again.
- 7:48And within a couple minutes you will start to calm down.
- 7:52Now what you wanna make sure that you're doing is when you are inhaling.
- 7:57Your belly's coming out when you're exhaling your belly's, uh, going in.
- 8:01Those of you who've done yoga, you know what I'm talking about.
- 8:03But you know how many of us go throughout the day forgetting this and we're not actually breathing right?
- 8:08And that can really bring you into the present moment.
- 8:11Next thing you can do is somatic shaking.
- 8:13So you can shake your hands, your arms, your legs, your hips, uh, to release stuck energy.
- 8:18You might see animals do this sometimes, like our dog will do this.
- 8:21She'll just like randomly do a little shake sometimes and you realize it's too, um.
- 8:26Let go of energy.
- 8:27Or sometimes if you see animals like puppies or something getting a scrap, you know, they get a little scrappy there and they get a little, they'd start roughhousing a little bit, then they'll like shake afterward, right?
- 8:38To let go of that energy.
- 8:39And you'll see a lot of animals do that.
- 8:41Well, you can do something different because, uh, when you shake and you do a somatic change, it's actually how animals.
- 8:49Uh, discharge stress after some sort of danger.
- 8:53Although with our golden retriever, it's not danger.
- 8:55Sometimes she's just itchy'cause she's been outside.
- 8:59I don't know.
- 9:00Right.
- 9:01Um, but she'll do it every once in a while.
- 9:03Um, so will the cat, she'll do it every once in a while.
- 9:07But usually right, you will see it out in the wild when they've gotten into a scrap.
- 9:10Right?
- 9:10And then once the danger's done, then they'll do a shake kind of a thing.
- 9:14Uh, next thing you can do is sensual movement.
- 9:18You can put on music, you can move intuitively, uh, not choreography, just expression.
- 9:23And it basically rewire safety and pleasure into the body.
- 9:27So with the feminine specifically, maybe you wanna do hip circles or you wanna do finger eights, uh, with your hips, because that's really where we live.
- 9:34We live like.
- 9:36You know, hips, belly, heart, that's kind of where we are.
- 9:39So we wanna make sure we move, um, all of that, even if you feel silly, it really does not matter.
- 9:44Start moving.
- 9:46And then finally, if you might wanna do some self-soothing touch, you can hug yourself.
- 9:50Some people do that.
- 9:51You could put one hand on your heart.
- 9:53Another on your womb.
- 9:55And again, do that very intentional breathing and that'll already start to regulate you and bring you down.
- 10:02There's a bunch of other tools that you can use to regulate your nervous system.
- 10:05So if you want me to do more videos on those, just leave a comment below.
- 10:10Uh, but in terms of journaling practices and going deeper into this and how it affects the brain and other techniques you can use.
- 10:16Make sure to check out that Hustle to Harmony masterclass that a lot of you have been purchasing.
- 10:21I will leave that below for you.
- 10:23So here's um, how I use this, right?
- 10:26So I just went through a move recently.
- 10:29I moved from the second largest city in Mexico, which is Guadalajara, out to the lake chip area, which is magical.
- 10:35There is magic out here in the Lake Chapala area.
- 10:38The energy is so nice out here and so good.
- 10:41But as you can imagine.
- 10:43Um, moving is stressful, right?
- 10:45And I've moved from one country to another country.
- 10:48My husband runs a business where he helps people move to other countries.
- 10:51So I, I deal with this moving thing a lot, right?
- 10:55So one of the things that, um, I do right is I, in particular, I will use breathing exercises and that grounding exercise when I'm feeling like frazzled or stressed out or something, and that will immediately downregulate me.
- 11:09And I will be good, uh, to go basically, or when something happens, even if it's good that I wasn't expecting.
- 11:15And I feel myself a little anxious, like, you know, I saw sales starting to come in through this channel, and I was like, yes, right?
- 11:21But then another part of me was like, too good to be true, you know?
- 11:23So immediately when that story comes in, I will use.
- 11:26Those tools to start downregulating and receive better and receive more.
- 11:32So thank you so much for giving me your time today.
