- 2:22So you don't have to wait until I have a course or a program or any of that that'll help you start, uh, with the basics.
- 2:29So.
- 2:31Let's get into slow living lifestyle, right?
- 2:34Slow living lifestyle is actually something that I've been fascinated with for a very long time.
- 2:39Uh, but I never did it.
- 2:40And the reason why I never did it is because I always lived in cities, right?
- 2:44I grew up in a big city.
- 2:45Uh, I've lived in big cities.
- 2:47My husband also spent most of his time living in big cities.
- 2:50The last two years we were actually living in the second largest city.
- 2:54In Mexico for the last couple years.
- 2:57In addition to that, we're both entrepreneurs.
- 2:59We both like business.
- 3:01We both have a lot of energy.
- 3:03Uh, so we, we like to move right?
- 3:07And at least in my twenties, I'll speak for myself in my twenties because I was always in this hustle mode because I was taught that in order for me to be successful in life, then I had to always be grinding and hustling and money and success were the most important things.
- 3:21Turns out that was wrong, right?
- 3:24Uh, and I had to learn that the hard way.
- 3:26But because that's what I was taught.
- 3:29I spent most of my twenties moving at a very, very fast pace, and up until recently I always thought that I would end up in a city.
- 3:37So my husband and I now live in Mexico.
- 3:39We travel a lot for our main business.
- 3:42The main business is we run a relocation company where we help successful entrepreneurs and investors moving and invest overseas.
- 3:48It's why we're spending a lot of time in Mexico right now because Mexico is one of the top que uh, countries we get asked about.
- 3:55So we're, we're on the go a lot.
- 3:57Like, we like to travel, we like to explore new things, but what we've been feeling recently, um, and I'd been feeling it probably longer than my husband, but when I met him, he was already kind of moving in this direction and I was as well, is that we needed a slower pace.
- 4:13We needed a slower living lifestyle.
- 4:16When I met my husband, he basically told my mother, like, if it were up to me, I would be living in a farm in the middle of nowhere.
- 4:23And I was like, you're crazy.
- 4:25But now I'm like, okay, I think I can kind of, I can get the gist of it.
- 4:28I can get.
- 4:29Why?
- 4:29Because a few years ago when I had my dark night of the soul and I basically lost everything and had to start over and I had to learn to regulate my nervous system, one of the things I had to learn how to do was really slow down.
- 4:40Now, I wasn't ready to move outta the cities yet.
- 4:43Uh, that's more of a recent thing.
- 4:45But for example, I went from the United States to Mexico.
- 4:48Mexico is a slower pace.
- 4:50Than the United States period, culturally, which is why I tell a lot of women, and I know that this sounds kind of extreme, if you're a woman living in the United States, in Canada and parts of, uh, Western Europe and you're like, oh my God, I want a soft life, just move to another country where they value more soft life things.
- 5:06Mexico is one of them.
- 5:08So I already made a huge move, uh, with that and then.
- 5:13In addition to that, but we were living in the city, right?
- 5:15Because to go like moving to another country, for me, my husband was used to it.
- 5:20He'd been doing it for 10 years.
- 5:21But moving to another country for me was already a big enough adjustment and a big enough shift.
- 5:27And I was going through major life changes.
- 5:29This was a couple years ago.
- 5:31Um, so to go from like major cities my whole life to like more of a country lifestyle in Mexico.
- 5:38I, I don't think I could have done it right.
- 5:39So we ended up, uh, settling at least for a little while in the second largest city in Mexico, which is Guadalajara.
- 5:48Mexico City is the largest.
- 5:49And then you have Guadalajara.
- 5:51So we were there the last couple years and it was becoming pretty and we studied a lot of stuff there.
- 5:56Like we got the other business going, uh, with marketing and things like that.
- 6:00We actually studied to become holistic health practitioners.
- 6:04You can actually see our training materials.
- 6:06Down there from when we got certified.
- 6:09Um, you know, we've been taking meditation classes in the city and building a lot of community around that, uh, which was really helpful to us transitioning into a whole other country, uh, for me, and also gave me a lot of grounding, but it was becoming very apparent to us that we were kind of ready to get outta the city.
- 6:27Um.
- 6:28And we ended up manifesting moving to a lake house by Lake Chapala, which is the largest lake in Mexico.
- 6:35And this place is a dream'cause there's, um, it looks like Hawaii right now'cause it's rainy season.
- 6:41So that's number one.
- 6:42Number two, waking up to that lake view every morning is everything.
- 6:48We're also surrounded by mountains, so it feels a lot more grounding here.
- 6:53Then in the city we get our food from local farms.
- 6:56It's amazing.
- 6:57And I literally, we were out to breakfast the other day and they were just like cows roaming the street.
- 7:02It was great, and I never in a million years thought that I would enjoy that type of a lifestyle, but I'm realizing that the more in tune I get with my feminine energy, the more I want.
- 7:16A slower lifestyle.
- 7:18Right.
- 7:18And the more I want to embark on a seasonal living and cyclical living, which is a lot of what our ancestors did, they lived by the seasons.
- 7:26Even the farmers here, you can't see it, but across the lake there's a bunch of berry farms.
- 7:30Uh, they gotta go by the seasons in terms of, of harvest and, and all those kinds of things.
- 7:36Like one of the things that's interesting about Mexico, that's different from the united.
- 7:40States.
- 7:40It's like in the United States, you can find whatever kind of fruit or vegetable you want at whatever time of the year because they probably just imported it from somewhere else.
- 7:49Small towns in Mexico are not like that.
- 7:51Things are either in season or they're not right, and you have to, uh, adjust accordingly in that regard.
- 7:58So why?
- 8:00Are a lot of people, not just women.
- 8:02Right.
- 8:03But why are a lot of people in general more interested now in more of this slow living, uh, kind of lifestyle?
- 8:10Because we also hear this a lot in the main business when we're helping people move to other countries.
- 8:15Like they're just done with.
- 8:16The pace of the United States is one of the things that we hear a lot, so.
- 8:22There's a problem with hustle culture and there's a problem with hustle mode.
- 8:26And the main problem is that it's unsustainable.
- 8:29And those of us who come from Western countries, uh, we live in a world that glorifies productivity.
- 8:36Efficiency and getting things done right.
- 8:40You'll notice that a lot of the personal development stuff in the United States, which is where I'm from, is about getting more done, getting things done, uh, moving faster, moving better.
- 8:50It's very competitive, right?
- 8:52There's other countries that are not.
- 8:54So much like that.
- 8:55Again, Mexico being one of them, but there's several, uh, all around the world where the lifestyle is not really like that.
- 9:01Um, now there's nothing wrong with productivity and efficiency.
- 9:04There's a time and a place for them.
- 9:06Like, I sometimes wish Mexico was more efficient, uh, with some things, but I also appreciate that it's not right.
- 9:13So it's about finding that nice little, uh, balance in between.
- 9:17And what happens is those of us who come from more, uh, the United, traditionally Western countries like the.
- 9:24United States, Canada, and again, parts of Western Europe, I believe more in the north.
- 9:28There's like an over, um, over, uh, adoration, I guess over admiration.
- 9:37Um, over glorification of those things, which tend to be a lot more masculine.
- 9:45And not only is it more masculine, it just eventually, like I said, it's unsustainable.
- 9:50I had a nearly seven figure business a few years ago and I burned out so bad and my nervous system basically collapsed because it was all built on this hustle mode, hustle culture kind of thing.
- 10:03And again.
- 10:04There's nothing wrong with ambition.
- 10:06I'm very ambitious.
- 10:07I started this as a creative project because I was bored on the side of the other business.
- 10:12My husband is also very ambitious.
- 10:14Um, you know, the problem, like I said, is when we have an imbalance of those things, and most people are living in an imbalance way, particularly when we look at the United States and Canada, which again, because of the, the main business that we have, we mostly work with Americans and Canadians.
- 10:32Um, they're all in survival mode.
- 10:34Uh, even people who are doing well in those countries are in survival mode and their nervous systems are just wrecked because that's, that's what life is like, uh, in those countries right now.
- 10:45So this constant motion, this constant stimulation, this constant.
- 10:50Output, right?
- 10:51That is masculine energy and overdrive.
- 10:54And by the way, even men need to rest because they're human, right?
- 10:58So you might, uh, I know that there's examples of men that are like, go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
- 11:03And granted, right?
- 11:04They can do that and sustain it a lot longer than us women can because of how their hormones are actually set up, right?
- 11:11They have a 24 hour cycle.
- 11:13We have a 28 day cycle.
- 11:15It's totally different.
- 11:16Men can do the same thing day in and day out and be fine.
- 11:19Us women, we're like a different person from one week to the next, which kind of drives men crazy until they understand what is going on there.
- 11:28I mean, hell, it drives us women crazy until we understand.
- 11:32Um.
- 11:33What is going on there?
- 11:34But even men need to rest.
- 11:36Or if you go to the gym, right, if you, if you lift weights, if you go to the gym, if you're a gym rat, like what do you have to, uh, put into your gym protocol?
- 11:45You need a rest day.
- 11:47You need to rest.
- 11:48We are human right?
- 11:50We're not robots, we're not machines.
- 11:52Um, you know, back when I did a lot more business coaching and I was getting more into like automations and funnels and all that kind of stuff, one thing I, my husband and I would joke about, we'd be like, let the machines be machines and then you go be a human, right?
- 12:05So it, it's not just like a feminine energy thing, it's just a human thing.
- 12:09Um, in a lot of ways.
- 12:10And the thing is, when we humans live like that, but especially women, we slowly disconnect from.
- 12:19Our intuition, we start disconnecting from our softness, our creativity, our sensuality, our receiving power.
- 12:26And again, this is specifically women.
- 12:28It affects men in a bit of a different way.
- 12:30And in addition to that, and I've seen this with a lot of women, it completely disconnects us from our bodies, right?
- 12:35So this is when you have women who are literally living from the head up.
- 12:39'cause there's so much masculine energy.
- 12:41So.
- 12:43Now that we've established what's going on for a lot of people, let's talk about what is feminine energy, right?
- 12:48And then we'll get into how slow living and seasonal living is kind of like the perfect feminine reset as someone who's living it right now.
- 12:56So as I've mentioned several times, feminine energy is not about being passive, it's not about doing nothing, right?
- 13:01It's not, it's more about being present.
- 13:05I will give you an example.
- 13:07Uh, this past week we did not have, uh, help.
- 13:11Normally we have like a housekeeper who comes to help us once a week, but, uh, she wasn't able to come next week'cause her family member's sick.
- 13:17So I had to, when that happens, usually I have to pick up the slack, which is fine, right?
- 13:21But I was cleaning the kitchen, making us some food a couple days ago, and I had the, and I had this moment where I was like, you know what?
- 13:27Let me play like really beautiful music and just make this a very beautiful.
- 13:31Experience, and I had this moment while I was doing this where even something so mundane, like cleaning the kitchen and making vegetables suddenly because I was so present in that moment, seemed so beautiful to me in its simplicity.
- 13:45So that would be an example of feminine energies being very present, uh, in the moment.
- 13:51Now, in that case, I also made it feminine energy by making it pretty, by playing really nice, like.
- 13:56Summer cottage music playlist, um, on YouTube with like piano and all these beautiful waltz's and things.
- 14:05So that would be an example of how to incorporate feminine energy into something so mundane and then being very present in that moment.
- 14:14A lot of women are out here living in their heads and living in the past and living in the future, but not really in the present.
- 14:21The feminine is also about doing, uh, less.
- 14:24Right.
- 14:25It's about doing what nourishes you.
- 14:28So what do we mean by doing less?
- 14:30Here are some examples on how we can do it.
- 14:32According to seasonal living, it's summer.
- 14:34Right now it's the height of summer.
- 14:37It's when you have more energy, it's when there's more stuff going on.
- 14:40It's maybe when you're feeling more social and outgoing than you do for, than you would during winter months, for example.
- 14:48Mm-hmm.
- 14:48Um, another example might be with your own hormonal cycle, and I'll do a whole other video on, on cycle sinking according to your hormones.
- 14:56Because I've said it several times, it's life changing.
- 14:58I'll do another video, but I'll use myself as an example.
- 15:00Right.
- 15:00This might be TMI, but it is what it is.
- 15:03Right.
- 15:03I'm doing extra videos and extra work because I'm in a part of my hormonal cycle where I have extra energy to do it right.
- 15:11In a week.
- 15:12I'm not gonna have the energy to do it, and a week after that, I'm probably just gonna wanna sleep extra now because I know that.
- 15:19About my cycle.
- 15:20What does that mean?
- 15:21It means I'm planning my own productivity and my own schedule around the seasons of my body, right?
- 15:29So you could do it around the seasons of literally life, you know, and nature.
- 15:34And you could also do it according to the seasons.
- 15:38Of your cycle, right?
- 15:40So it's not, it's about doing less, right?
- 15:42It's about knowing when it's appropriate to do certain things instead of trying to do everything all at the same time.
- 15:49And what a lot of women in Western Worlds are trying to do right now is trying to do everything all at the same time, and then they just end up burned out and exhausted.
- 15:56Another way to do it is to actually ask for help.
- 15:59Um, you know, if you're feeling overwhelmed, ask.
- 16:02For help.
- 16:03Right?
- 16:03And you'd be surprised at how many women just don't do that because they feel so uncomfortable receiving.
- 16:09And I've done another video, which you can check out on the many reasons as to why women, uh, struggle with receiving.
- 16:15Because it's not like an accident and it's not like random.
- 16:18There's reasons for it.
- 16:20And once you understand those reasons, and you're better able to heal that part of yourself so you can start receiving more, and in receiving more, you start doing less and running yourself less into the ground.
- 16:32Right.
- 16:33The other thing is a part of the you that's intuitive.
- 16:36It's cyclical in nature.
- 16:37I just gave an example of that.
- 16:39It's magnetic and it's also emotionally attuned.
- 16:42And here's the truth, right?
- 16:44Your feminine essence and your feminine energy, the thing that makes you most attractive, the thing that helps you manifest, the thing that attracts provider men to you.
- 16:51Uh, the help thing that helps you manifest your desires, whatever they might be.
- 16:56It doesn't thrive in a chaotic, always on environment.
- 17:00It just doesn't, right?
- 17:02We're literally not built that way physically or psychologically.
- 17:06We're not built that way, and it's not how we thrive, um, as women.
- 17:13The reality is that our feminine energy, and we as women, we need space, right?
- 17:19I've said that to my husband a lot.
- 17:20I'm like, I get my best ideas when I'm doing nothing.
- 17:23I get my best ideas when I give myself the space to rest, right?
- 18:28It's not an accident.
- 18:29It's because that's how the feminine really works.
- 18:32So let's get into how slow living and the slow living lifestyle, which I know is trending all over social media.
- 18:39It's kind of, in my opinion, one of the ultimate.
- 18:42Feminine resets, right?
- 18:44So slow living, like I said, is a trend, right?
- 18:46You see it all over YouTube, you see it on TikTok, you see it on Instagram.
- 18:49It's not an aesthetic, right?
- 18:51I know there's an aesthetic that goes with it that's really cute, like cottage core and all that kind of stuff.
- 18:56It's more of a nervous system, reset.
- 19:00And one of the things that we really need to learn how to do is we need to learn how to regulate our nervous systems.
- 19:06'cause a lot of us are running out here with totally dysregulated nervous systems and it's part of what's causing a lot of sabotaging behavior, bad decisions and anxiety and health issues.
- 19:15And it just, it's interesting because when we were studying and becoming certified holistic healers here in Mexico, I remember day one of the class, uh, our teacher was basically a shaman.
- 19:27I remember day one.
- 19:29We went into the nervous system and he said something I will never forget, which is everything starts in the nervous system.
- 19:35Every ailment, every issue, everything you can think of starts in the nervous system.
- 19:40And guess what?
- 19:41Every ancient civilization knew it.
- 19:44They may not have had the words or the science or the terminology or the instruments to track these things like we do now, but they knew that everything started in the nervous system, and I never forgot that.
- 19:56That's one of the reasons why nervous system regulation is so important, right?
- 20:01So when we go into the slow living lifestyle, which could look like being more present in the moment, it could look like living more by the seasons.
- 20:09It could look like going more according to your hormones and your cyclical nature as a woman.
- 20:14It could mean going by the moon cycles, right?
- 20:16It could mean meditating more, but basically slowing down in whatever way it helps you to slow down.
- 20:22It's a way of being that says, I trust enough.
- 20:26To slow down.
- 20:27A lot of the reason why people don't slow down is because they don't trust that they're safe and they're gonna be okay and taken care of, right?
- 20:32So it's that I trust enough to slow down.
- 20:35I know that when I had my own massive nervous system dysregulation and everything collapsed around me, I had a hard time slowing down because I didn't feel safe slowing down.
- 20:45I thought, you know, my, my security was like at stake.
- 20:48If I slowed down, which might, uh, might seem familiar to some of you.
- 20:53It means I honor my body's rhythms.
- 20:55Right.
- 20:56Huge.
- 20:57Most people out here are not out here honoring their body's rhythms, and that's why they have a bunch of ailments that they're dealing with.
- 21:02Right.
- 21:03It means I value presence over pressure.
- 21:07Okay.
- 21:08Now, for those of us, it's interesting because I used to, I used to perform very well under pressure and I kind of liked.
- 21:15Right.
- 21:16This was in my twenties.
- 21:18Uh, I was going after the goals and I'm still very ambitious.
- 21:21I just have a different relationship to ambition and goals now than I used to have.
- 21:25It's a lot more holistic now and a lot more sustainable, but I remember that I used to perform very well under pressure, and if I was under pressure, that was like the thing I needed, right?
- 21:36Like my back needed to be up against a wall in order for me to really perform.
- 21:40I know a lot of entrepreneurs and high performing people that are like that.
- 21:44And I had, and now that I've gotten more into this slow living and I've gotten really good results from it holistically and sustainably, pressure doesn't do anything for me anymore.
- 21:55It does not motivate me.
- 21:57It doesn't do anything for me because I know ultimately that it's unsustainable, especially as a feminine energy woman.
- 22:03And the slow living lifestyle allows your feminine energy to come back online naturally.
- 22:10Okay.
- 22:10Completely.
- 22:12Naturally what's going on out here is a lot of women either, you know, sometimes hormonal birth control has something to do with it.
- 22:19I could do a whole other video on that.
- 22:21Um, or things that, or medications that we're taking for whatever other ailment, uh, that we may have sometimes causes some issues here.
- 22:28But mostly it's just our lifestyle, like what we're eating and how we're living, and how we're relating to time and our relationships and our bodies and everything around us basically.
- 22:38When it happens, right, is our feminine energy.
- 22:39It's almost like it goes off online, it goes offline.
- 22:42And I see this a lot in women who live from the neck up.
- 22:45When I see a woman that all her energy is up here in her head, neck up, I know she's gone offline.
- 22:51So when you start practicing more of the slow living lifestyle.
- 22:55That feminine energy can start coming back online now.
- 22:58It's not gonna be like this.
- 22:59It's not gonna be from one day to the next.
- 23:02The reality of what's probably gonna happen is you're gonna start slowing down and your nervous system's gonna freak out.
- 23:07Your brain's gonna freak out because again, all that safety stuff, it's gonna start coming up like, I'm not safe.
- 23:11I'm not safe.
- 23:12Uh, if I'm not in control, I'm not safe.
- 23:15Uh, and that those are moments for you to work through those things.
- 23:20The slow living lifestyle can help you do that in a way that's not so jarring.
- 23:23So when your feminine energy starts to come back online, and I can say this from experience as well, you start to feel grounded again.
- 23:30One of the things that I really love about living out here more in the country is that I feel grounded because I'm so much closer to nature.
- 23:39So grounded, right?
- 23:41Uh, this again might be too much TMI, but I got off of, um, hormonal contraceptive and one of, and you know, within two months of getting off of it, and I had prepared for six months prior before I got off of it, I was preparing my body for six months.
- 23:55So getting off of it would be an easier transition, but one of the things that I noticed was how much more grounded I felt in my body.
- 24:05And that was something that I just, I cannot feel that.
- 24:08When I'm on hormonal contraceptives, maybe you can, but I cannot.
- 24:12Right?
- 24:12So I was like, I need to get off of this stuff because I feel so disconnected and so ungrounded and I have so much, um.
- 24:20Anxiety.
- 24:21Right.
- 24:21So the, and again, right when I was able to get off of it, I was able to start living in a slow living type of lifestyle because I started, I was able to read what was going on with my body and listening to my body's rhythms and knowing things like, okay, I can film extra stuff now, but I'm not gonna be able to in two weeks.
- 24:39Better get it done now, and then I'm gonna rest in two weeks.
- 24:41Right.
- 24:42But again, I feel more grounded since making those changes and doing more of a slow living lifestyle.
- 24:49The other thing is that your magnetism increases, it increases in business, it increases in relationships, it increases in everything because you know what is more attractive than a person who's very grounded in themselves.
- 25:01It's super attractive when you find a person who's grounded in themselves, who's sure of themselves, who's not living in their heads.
- 25:08Super attractive, right?
- 25:09Man or woman.
- 25:10It's very attractive.
- 25:12And the other thing that happens is that you stop, uh, you stop operating in.
- 25:17Survival mode, and you start going into soul mode, you start being led more by your soul and not your survival.
- 25:26And guess what happens?
- 25:27When you're led more by your soul?
- 25:29You're more authentic.
- 25:30You make better decisions, you become more successful in whatever way that means to you.
- 25:34And whatever success looks like to you, you become more intentional about how you live your life.
- 25:39You become healthier.
- 25:40It just benefits you in every way possible.
- 25:43When you get outta survival and more into soul.
- 25:47So here are some of the ways that you can start to embody a slow living lifestyle, um, and then incorporating more feminine energy into it and increasing your feminine energy.
- 25:58As a result, right?
- 25:59So here are five ways that you can start living slower and reacting your femini, reactivating your feminine energy today.
- 26:06And again, I have a free guide that I put together for you guys so you can download that below.
- 26:11And it has a lot of these practices and some more in there, right?
- 26:14So number one, this is huge for me.
- 26:16Start your mornings without your phone.
- 26:18Okay?
- 26:19I don't even have my phone in my bedroom.
- 26:20I don't want it.
- 26:22You know, my bedroom, I don't wanna look at it.
- 26:25I don't want it near me while I'm sleeping.
- 26:28Because what happens is you get into the bad habit of looking at your phone.
- 26:31Here are all the notifications.
- 26:33Here's the news from the world.
- 26:34Here's the chaos.
- 26:35This person needs this from you.
- 26:36This person needs that from you.
- 26:37This crappy email came in, this good email came in, and basically it's an assault on your nervous system first.
- 26:44Thing in the morning.
- 26:46So I don't look at my phone, I don't have it in the bedroom.
- 26:49I do have my iPad next to me because I use that for, uh, meditation, but I don't have anything related to work or messages or any of that stuff on my iPad, right?
- 26:59Um, and what you want, what that helps you do is that it helps you create a soft space for presence right before the world starts.
- 27:07Pulling you in different directions.
- 27:09It's like you take control of the day before the world takes control of you, right?
- 27:15The next thing is you wanna embrace rituals, not routines.
- 27:18Like I don't have a problem with the word routine.
- 27:20I love routines, I love them.
- 27:23Um, but I will admit.
- 27:25There is something very nice about the word rituals and that some people have an easier time with the word ritual.
- 27:31It's similar to how people have a problem with the word budget, but they have no problem with saying spending plan.
- 27:37It's kind of like that, right?
- 27:39So embrace rituals, not routines, you know, light a candle, light some incenses, gruesome tea.
- 27:45Um, every time I'm having a tea or a coffee, I set it with intentions.
- 27:49For example, I have, uh, candles and altars for things that I'm trying to manifest into this life.
- 27:55You, you can turn daily moments into sacred pauses.
- 27:57Similar to that example I gave when I was cooking a couple days ago, and I started playing music and I was like, oh my God, this is so beautiful.
- 28:04Even the most mundane, simple, basic, everyday thing can be so beautiful in the present moment when you ritualize it.
- 28:13The second thing you want, the next thing right, is you want to move your body intuitively.
- 28:18Uh, feminine energy flows when you do.
- 28:21You can dance, you can stretch, you can walk.
- 28:23I hike up and down the mountain that we live on now, it doesn't look like much, but, oh man, it's deceiving.
- 28:30Uh, there's a pool that we can go to.
- 28:32To swim.
- 28:33I can do yoga out on the patio.
- 28:35Sometimes I just wanna dance and move my body in different ways and sometimes I wanna rest.
- 28:39Right?
- 28:40So it's not necessarily be about reps.
- 28:42And when you get into cycle, sinking as a woman and let me know in the comments if you want me to do a video specifically on cycle sinking and like biohacking according to your hormones or your hormonal cycle, right?
- 28:53You know what exercises to do when.
- 28:56That's the other thing.
- 28:56It's like, it's not just like when you're most productive, it's also like, what, what exercise makes the most sense for my body right now and how I'm feeling?
- 29:05Right?
- 29:06Uh, you also wanna create clear space on your calendar.
- 29:09This is so counterintuitive to what a lot of like business people and productivity gurus will tell you.
- 29:15But again, most of those are either men or masculinized women.
- 29:19Right?
- 29:20Uh, most women don't.
- 29:23Do very well with those things because the feminine needs space.
- 29:28She needs space to think.
- 29:29She needs space to rest.
- 29:31She needs space to create.
- 29:32She needs space to do nothing.
- 29:34She needs space to let her mind wander.
- 29:36She needs space, uh, to ground, and that's when her magic is able to turn on.
- 29:41You can also reconnect with beauty.
- 29:43You can surround yourself with art, with nature.
- 29:47I'm really getting into like music and stuff lately, while I'm cooking or cleaning and just playing really beautiful music.
- 29:54You know, feminine energy ultimately at the end of the day is beauty embodied.
- 29:58It was always goddesses that were were related or associated with a beauty not god's.
- 30:07All right, and then right finally.
- 30:09We're gonna go into is what happens when you start to do this, right?
- 30:13So when you start to shift into more of a slow living lifestyle, there's magic that starts to happen.
- 30:18Maybe not right away, right?
- 30:20But with time, you're gonna start noticing some things, right?
- 30:22Number one, you stop chasing.
- 30:24You stop chasing, period.
- 30:26Things become a lot more attracted to you.
- 30:29You become a lot more magnetic.
- 30:30Things become easier.
- 30:31One example, would it be like this move that we just went through, like it wasn't even something that we planned.
- 30:37It wasn't something that we grinded for.
- 30:39It wasn't something that we hustled for.
- 30:41It kind of just happened and it flowed in a really magical way, and we attracted the property.
- 30:48We're on, um, right now, and I've done other videos on how, um, when couples come together and I have a theory that when couples come together and a man that's very much in his masculine energy and a woman is very much in her feminine energy, they manifest like freaking crazy.
- 31:05So I will leave that below for you as well, because this move is definitely an example of that.
- 31:11You also become more magnetic, uh, more creative.
- 31:14I've never been so like.
- 31:15After many years of feeling like my creativity had just shut down because I was just in survival mode for so long, it started to come back online and I started being able to express myself again.
- 31:26I wasn't as afraid to express myself.
- 31:28I became a lot more creative and, and I wanted to embark in more creative pursuits.
- 31:34And also you start to become more emotionally tuned in because you're more emotionally regulated instead of, you know, having your, your nervous system be completely shot and um, having your emotions totally run the show and you're not even really sure what's going on with your emotions.
- 31:49Instead, you become a lot more regulated.
- 31:51And from that space, everything truly starts to align.
- 31:56You know, your relationships shift.
- 31:58You get more polarity.
- 31:59In your relationships, business shifts.
- 32:02You start getting these ideas that start making money.
- 32:05You start being connected to this person who can connect you to that person.
- 32:08The perfect book falls off the shelf, which is the exact thing that you needed in that moment.
- 32:13Synchronicity become more common and more importantly, you start to feel more like you.
- 32:20You start to feel more like yourself.
- 32:23You start to feel more free, so.
- 32:26If this resonates with you, you're not alone.
- 32:29You know, we're living in a time when more women are waking up to feminine energy work and they're saying, you know, I want to live differently.
- 32:38Especially Western women.
- 32:40They're saying, I want to live.
- 32:42Differently.
- 32:43This is not working for me.
- 32:45So you're definitely not alone, and that's exactly what we can help you do in our programs, in our private coaching.
