Many have learned to be strong in
your “Masculine” Essence to succeed in this world
which, although may be empowering and beneficial while doing
business and completing tasks, can be at the expense of your
Feminine expression.
In my practice, I incorporate a unique
combination of tools and techniques derived from the practices
of Counseling, Coaching, Tantra, and optional Hands-on Healing.
This enables a woman to understand and experience her True
“Feminine” Essence which can enrich her relationships
by breaking through barriers to intimacy and sensuality.
At various times, throughout our
history, women were often revered for their wisdom and became
the leaders of our communities. Their natural Feminine essence
of intuition, love and harmony were guidelines for how we,
as a society, lived our lives.
Sadly, over time women were forced into
a secondary role in society. Men have come to dominate all
aspects of religion, business and politics as a means to maintain
control and therefore power, the result of which has been
that the Divine Feminine guidance was all but quashed or limited
to the role of home and childcare.
Both men and women have Masculine (Yang) and Feminine (Yin)
characteristics. Yang characteristics are active states which
incorporate implementing plans, defending territory and doing
business while the Yin characteristics embody intuition, nurturing
and love. It is the Feminine side that enables us to “go
with the flow” and “surrender to the now”.
Only in the last couple of generations
have women started to regain their rightful place in society,
a place of equality, dignity and respect. This has been particularly
apparent during the Feminist Movement of the 1960’s
when major injustices were brought to our attention.
Slowly, changes began to be implemented
which resulted in women returning to positions of power in
the community and the work environment. However, since men
had held positions of control for so long, in order to be
effective, women found that they needed to bring forth their
natural Yang abilities in order to succeed in what had become
"a man’s world". The results of this strategy
are that women, who may be strong in their Yin energy, have
become strong in their Yang.
At the same time, men who have long exercised
their strong Masculine are now being influenced by society
that this is no longer acceptable. They are taught that they
should be a "sensitive new-age guy", soft and sensitive,
loving and nurturing. This is fine and wonderful in and of
itself, but the balance has been lost. Men can now appear
weak in their Masculine and, since the Feminine side is new
to them, they can also be weak in their Feminine. As a consequence
women now take control of the relationships and all aspects
of life simply because they seem to be better qualified.
How do these role reversals affect the
dynamics of relationship? Both men and women have a need and
desire to fully experience all aspects of their Feminine and
Masculine, but in order for a woman to experience her Feminine
she needs to be able to fully surrender into a spontaneous,
natural flow of the moment. One way way for her to do this
is to relinquish control, which is only possible if she feels
that it is safe enough to do so and part of this safety is
based in a knowing trust that her partner will take care of
immediate circumstances. Is she able to do this if the man
is not assertive, clear and strong? Probably not.
There is also another requirement in surrendering
to the moment which is that she must feel her partner's love,
and then trust that his intuition will guide him. Can this
occur if he is weak in his Feminine? Not likely.
A woman cannot surrender to her Divine
Feminine unless she is in the presence of a man who is strong
in his Feminine AND strong in his Masculine.
In my Practice, I intuitively create a safe, respectful environment
for a woman to experience herself in the presence of a man.
I can also assist in breaking through barriers which have
blocked her intimacy and sensuality which will ultimately
lead to a deeper understanding and a more joyful experience
of self and relationships.
Through this new awareness of Self, I will
teach a woman how to access her Feminine radiance and how
to guide her partner, or potential partner, to "show
up" in a way to fully satisfy all aspects of both herself
and her relationships.
A great deal can be achieved with an ongoing
coaching relationship with me. I can gently and clearly help
you to identify the belief systems which you have adopted
in your life that prevent you from fully living your Truth.
This will result in greater clarity from within so that you
can show your self as the radiant, sensual and powerful woman
that you are.
While this is an important part of the
process there is another step that may be taken, if you choose,
with which you can fully embody and integrate all aspects
of your feminine. As a Certified Tantra Instructor, I can teach practices that will fully awaken your feminine. In Tantra, we set the intention
to allow your natural sexual energy to rise and, with some
simple practices involving breath and intention, it is possible
to experience profound feelings of love.
Unfortunately, there is a wide spread
belief in the west that Tantra is just about sexuality but
in truth, this is just one aspect. In simple terms I think
of Tantra as a combining of Sexuality and Spirituality but
this ancient and beautiful practice incorporates the entire
Art of Life. It is also about, diet, meditation, environment,
relationship with ourselves and others. It is about making
choices for our highest good, which automatically is for the
highest good of all.
