Awaken Your Feminine Energy

This Month We Celebrate Women's Day, A Celebration Of The Fairer Sex And All We Contribute To This World. What Better Time Than Now To Learn About Feminine Energy, And How To Awaken Yours?

- PRIYANKA ACHARYA

Feminine energy and masculine energy are present in both genders, and as the yin-yang symbol beautifully illustrates, balancing both energies leads to harmony. You may think that being a woman means you are already chockfull of feminine energy, as a default setting. But living in a world that is biased towards masculine traits means that you may have downplayed or repressed many of your naturally feminine qualities without realising it.

How do we define these energies?

Masculine energy is all about action. It is very present, logical, focused, achievement-driven, and it wants to build and protect. Feminine energy on the other hand is nurturing, soft, receptive, creative, and in touch with intuition. If masculine energy is characterised by doing, feminine energy is characterised by being.

Now can you see why it is easy to lose touch with the feminine side? As women strived to be treated as equals in the workplace, they were encouraged to lean in by emulating their male counterparts.
