Six Steps to Cultivate Your Femininity During Divorce
If you are a woman facing divorce, I’m guessing you have said something like this to yourself:
“I have to be tough and protect myself. Don’t show weakness or vulnerability”.
But, if you have ever seen a momma bear protecting her cubs, you know that the feminine force is in no way weak.
Natalie Peace Contributor at Forbes Magazine alludes to this metaphor in her article entitled, “The Awesome Power of Femininity…” and goes on to say:
Things to Consider in Cultivating Your Authentic Feminine Self to Counter Being Tough During Divorce:
(These concepts, in great part, are inspired by my mentor and coach extraordinaire, Stacey Martino)
You don’t have to be taught HOW to be feminine. The truth is, you know how instinctually. The learning process comes into play in learning how to drop your protective barrier that keeps you from being the natural you.
Femininity isn’t about how you look. It’s not about your clothing, hairstyle, make-up or jewelry. Instead, it’s about you are ‘being’, which emanates from the inside.
The core quality of femininity is openness. Feminine energy takes it all in, is vulnerable, nurturing, welcoming, energetic, seeks pleasure, able to feel everything and enjoys the ebb and flow of a wide range of emotions.
It is a woman’s ultimate power; femininity is NOT a weakness. Just ask Super Woman! She is full of power, yet incredibly feminine.
Consider cultivating your femininity in your personal life through dancing, taking bubble baths, listening to music, laughing, burning candles, using potpourri, incense and/or perfume, or putting on your favorite soft or silky outfit.
Ask yourself questions like: How open am I on a regular basis on a scale of 1 to 10? In what ways do I shut down to protect myself? How do I pull away, care less and distance myself?
