I never knew how to be with the intensity of emotion and empathy that I felt. I had no role models and my sensitivity was seen as a weakness, an immaturity and over caring.
The culture I grew up in was one of stiffness, control and rules. My sisters and I walked on egg shells so the land mines would not be set off. I feared these land mines. I tried to walk as carefully as possible but it did not matter how carefully I tried to walk somehow I would set them off.
Anger was something I perceived that only caused harm and so I pushed my feelings of anger away as much as possible. I did not want to cause harm to anyone like I felt harm was placed on me.
There are many emotion’s that women do not feel safe with. Some women don’t feel safe expressing joy, passion, their sexual desire, their creative fire and bringing it into life.
In the West I find the more creative, empathic, feminine and sensitive a woman is the more often she has pushed her feelings away from her self. And this is the most painful of wounds. To push her own true self out because she does not fit into what she sees, feels and is cultured to believe as appropriate.
And it’s not just in conventional education, healthcare, the corporate world, government, religion and familiar dynamics it’s also in new age spirituality and I watch how it's continuing as we move into the Aquarian Age. What it all has in common is the over riding of the will, the feminine aspect of self. We can not be whole individuals if we deny her.
I wish I knew this work when I was a teen or my parents had this information and I grew up with kindness to the feeling body, emotions and the feminine but the prize is that I get to now share it with others.
The last email I sent was about Guilt and how it takes up the space of love. It may have triggered you and if it did then its a good sign. Guilt is a major obstacle to healing. It sits in the way of feeling. And the more we let ourselves become aware of the guilt we carry the more opportunity we have to move it out of the way. You can read about guilt here ....
Transformation through Healing Emotion has no hype to it. It is not going to make you a bad ass woman that media like to portray these days. It’s not going to make you a 6 figure income. I don’t have cool or hip words to get you psyched. Because that is not what this is about. It is about true healing of the split between the masculine and the feminine, mother and father. I don’t think there are any greater riches personally but I’m a little bias.
These courses I share are about grounding into your unique system. Coming into yourself. Healing in ways you have not been able to reach before. To understand yourself better and stop being invisible to yourself.
My resonant people are creative beings, those who don’t fit into the box, who walk the heart way and are sensitive’s. Who have a fire of life that wants to live new ways on Earth. They feel a sincere deep yearning to heal and understand who they are better. They feel an imbalance in the workings of the current world systems and they love the Earth and deeply care for the future generations wellbeing.
If you feel a resonance to this course Transformation through Healing Emotion, to come and sit with The Mother of All and me as guide and teacher then I welcome you to join a like hearted group of women for 6 weeks to discover and trust in your own healing process that will transform the way you move through life.
