What Spirituality & Feminism Mean To Me…

May 29, 2020

As my hair dances with the wind, the weaving of the world takes my breath away, once again

‘Leneth, not so loud please’, is a sentence I used to hear at least once a day when I was younger. Ever since I could speak, I have had a loud voice – from a screeching, high-pitch to (now, I’d like to think) strong and out-there. And from a young age, I have learnt that that was a bad thing.

I wasn’t the only one – my dad’s side of the family was known for their volume. And what my 10-year-old self didn’t understand, was why this was a bad thing for me but ‘ something he just has’-shrug-with-the-shoulder for the male side of the family. 

I now see this as such a clear example of the difference in society’s expectations of both genders. This is not to blame my family or any one else specifically for what happened there – it actually lays bare a problem I have since been subconsciously aware of: my outspoken voice has no place in society. It is unsafe for me to speak up. It makes me less desirable when I speak my truth and speak it with passion – and it should my main aim in life to become and stay desirable.

A number of years ago I found myself in a position – of which in hindsight, I’m not sure I’ve ever been in before: outside of the male gaze. I ended my relationship on rather abrupt terms (read: intuitive, so inexplicable and intangible), moved out of our shared apartment into a small studio, and was completely by myself, for the first time in years. Or maybe ever.  

My grounds were shaking. My head was rattling. I slept for days and scrolled mindlessly for nights. Until I found myself breathing in and out, first on my couch, then on a cheap yoga mat, then just simply, with my bare shoulders and legs lying sprawled on the floor. I twisted my body in yoga poses and pressed my nose and eyes in women’s memoirs and spiritual handbooks. I quite literally found myself.   

And only years later, I see why that period felt so liberating. It wasn’t just because I ended a draining relationship. It was more: I created a space to explore, to become – or rather, to unbecome everything I felt I needed to be, do and think to be classified as a ‘woman’.   

I realised that through my newfound love for yoga, meditation, crystals, card pulling and incense I was finding ways to feel into my body and contemplate what it meant to be a woman. I discovered new spiritual practices, which connected me deeper to my true sense of self. I uncovered layers of myself I had long been told to cover up. I laid on the floor, connecting to the earth. I basked in the sun, letting my hair dance with the wind. In hindsight, I started my process of rewilding*.  

Outside of the male gaze, I started to reclaim my sensitivity and spirituality. It was there I realised how interwoven my deeper understanding of life was with my reconnection to womanhood. The cycles within and around me showed me the wisdoms of my female body. Trusting crystals as supporters of energy connected me to Mother Earth. The pulling of a card loudened my intuitive voice.  

It was there, on the floor, that I started to tell my younger self, who got silenced for being a passionate soul in a girl’s body: it’s time to clear your throat. It’s time to reclaim all parts you were before the silencing. I see you, I embrace you, and I am taking your hand to rise up together. 

How do your spiritual practices enforce your womanhood? And how does your perception of feminism invite in spirituality?   

* Rewilding carries different meanings in different contexts. In my own spiritual process, I refer to it as returning home to my inner wild woman – the liberated, free, powerful and strong spiritual woman I am deep down. This woman is connected to energies within and around her, connected to nature and sees herself as part of the bigger picture of Mother Nature/the Universe/Source.

I didn't know life could feel like this... ⁠
⁠
In the past few months, an internal shift has taken place. ⁠
✨ I feel abundant, regardless of how much money is in the bank. ⁠
✨ I feel spacious, even though I literally moved into a tiny house together with my partner. ⁠
✨ I feel connected to our community, even though all the offerings inside my heart aren't out into the world yet (coming soon!) and I've been more offline than ever. ⁠
⁠
Somethings clicked into place, and I thank all the inner work of the past 6+ years for it. ⁠
⁠
It's not so much the external changes that have provided this shift. I could still be knee deep into self doubt or scarcity, no matter the situation. It's not that. ⁠
⁠
It's that I'm finally embodying where my mindset was - or wanted to be -  all along. My nervous system can relax within all the change and open-mindedness of my current work & life situation. I feel confident about where I'm headed. I feel safe, secure and loved from within. ⁠
⁠
Whew, I am so grateful for that. ⁠
And I wish the exact same for you. 🙏🏼⁠
⁠
Is your heart craving this embodied and empowered change this year? Is 2023 the year you're going to put yourself first, dive deep into your inner world and come out the other side trusting your intuition, feeling happy and confident? ⁠
⁠
Allow me to support you on this journey. Check the link in bio or my stories for the link to book your 30 minute discovery call - I'm opening up two spaces to work with me 1:1 for the next 6 or 12 months. So, if the idea of having an intuitive mentor cheering you on and supporting you through the highs and lows of your journey, get yourself a discovery call with me *no strings attached* and let's see how I can support you this year! ⁠
⁠
It would be an honour to hold space for you x 🧡⁠

2022 - you've been so good to me! 🧡⁠
⁠
With the first ever retreat, the move to the tiny house, and all of its lessons and blessings in between, I've absolutely loved this year. ⁠
⁠
And I can feel that it's time to integrate these experiences even deeper in the time to come. ⁠
I'll be taking a bit of a break in posting regularly and creating, because I feel like there is so much that wants to be shared and offered that I need to sit with that first. ⁠
⁠
From January onwards you can check out all the details for the July retreat I'll be hosting with @drsarahcoxon & when I'll be back it'll be with an incredible community-based virtual experience too. I can feel it brewing. It just needs beautiful, luscious and indulgent time, patience and tending. ⁠
⁠
I'll see you very soon & for now, have a wonderful end to 2022 and a magical start to 2023. ✨ So much love for you, sister x

A word of the year can be a great anchor to reinspire your intentions through the 12 months. ⁠
⁠
But that can also feel like a lot of pressure on just 1 simple word! ⁠
⁠
So what if the process has less to do with 'choosing' the 'perfect' one and more about calling in what feels most supportive for the direction you'd like to take this year? ⁠
⁠
I always get a lot of questions about choosing a word of the year around this time, especially because I've made it our tradition to record a yearly podcast on it (which is now up!). But I can hardly ever give you a good answer on the process of choosing it because to me, it's not really a choice. The word comes to me, usually a few weeks or even months before the previous year closes, and I dance with it for a bit before my heart will anchor on it. ⁠
⁠
It's an intuitive process in collaboration with the Universe. ⁠
So my invitation for you if you're craving to settle on a word for the new year, is to plant a seed with the energy around you to show you some options. Stay open to words, sentences, and energy flowing your way after you've done that. And see what feels exciting, expansive, supportive and maybe a little terrifying to anchor down your new year! ⁠
⁠
Check out the latest episode of the Spiritual Feminist podcast to hear me talk about my process with last year's word and my new 2023 addition. I also include journal prompts and a card pull to help you feel supported during this ritualistic time! ⁠
⁠
What's your 2023 word? (or tell me your 2022 word and how it served you!)

Let's make a self care list together...! 🙏🏼⁠
⁠
In a mentoring call the other week my client expressed how sometimes she felt overwhelmed when she had time to herself. Even in her down time, she felt the pressure to be productive and 'make the most of it'. ⁠
⁠
Gah... can't we all relate?! 😞⁠
⁠
During the session, I invited her to create a list of 5 things that made her heart feel good. Things such as journaling, reading, and guided meditations. And then we created a practice around how she could enjoy these things without feeling like there was a right or wrong way to do so, and instead, invited her to focus on what felt good & what expanded her heart in that moment. ⁠
We journeyed back to what felt pretty damn good, without there needing to be expectation or pressure. 👏🏼⁠
⁠
This is hard work. Deep work. Healing work. 🧡⁠
It sounds so simple, but sometimes reading a book without being distracted or creating a nr.-of-pages-goal is the most rebellious thing you can do for your empowerment journey. 🔥⁠
⁠
If you have a list (or would like to create one), let me know what nourishes your heart! And if you'd like to receive tools and space to release the pressure around your self care and empowerment journey, maybe 1:1 mentorship is the one for you. DM me for more details ! x
