Hi there,
Liz Doyle,
The Positive Change Coach here.
Before patriarchal times,
Friday was considered the day to honour feminine energy.
It was revered as a day to celebrate the Divine Feminine,
To honour the Goddess that lives in us all,
And respect the powerful cycles of creation,
Death and rebirth.
So finding a quiet space where you won't be disturbed,
You may like to light a candle if you wish to symbolise the Divine Flame within you.
Let's begin by taking a few deep breaths as you settle in.
Inhale slowly,
Feeling your breath filling your lungs.
Now breathe out,
Releasing any tension in the body.
As you close your eyes,
Continue to focus on your breath.
Feel the rise and fall of your chest.
Let each breath wash all over you,
Calming your mind and your body.
Imagine now a soft,
Warm light enveloping you.
This light is the energy of the Divine Feminine.
Maybe this light is a deep red,
Or a vibrant orange.
Or maybe it's a softer colour,
Like the pale pink of a rose quartz crystal,
Or maybe it's lavender.
What colour is your light that surrounds you?
Allow it to penetrate your being,
Soothing your soul.
Visualise or imagine yourself standing in a lush,
Vibrant forest.
The trees,
Tall and majestic,
Represent the strength and resilience of the Divine Feminine.
The flowers blooming in the forest glades,
With such vibrancy,
Symbolise beauty and creativity.
Pure and radiant.
It is time to awaken the Divine Feminine energy within you,
And to connect with your inner Divine Mother.
As you sit by the pond,
Observe the natural world around you.
Notice the beauty and abundance of life.
Connect with the Earth as a nurturing Mother,
Providing for all living beings.
Feel the grounding energy of Mother Earth beneath your feet,
And her gentle touch of the wind on your skin.
Now repeat these affirmations after me.
I am loved and supported.
I am worthy of love and compassion.
I trust in the Divine flow of life.
Now,
I'd like you to imagine a small group of women who are standing before you in the forest.
These women are your ancestors.
Your grandmothers,
Great-grandmothers,
And great-great-grandmothers.
Take a moment to observe each woman.
Notice their expressions,
Their body language,
And if they are showing any emotions.
If you are aware of any wounds or pain any of these women seem to be carrying,
Approach them with compassion and understanding.
Ask these women about their experiences,
And listen to their stories without judgment.
As you listen,
You may feel a sense of sadness or anger or frustration.
Allow yourself to feel these emotions without holding them back.
Once you have fully acknowledged their pain,
Send your ancestors love and healing energy,
And thank them for making your life so much easier than theirs.
Tell them that you see them,
You acknowledge them,
You understand them,
And that you also forgive them for any pain they may have caused you or others.
As you send them love and healing energy,
You may feel a sense of release and peace.
It is safe for you to be aware of your emotions.
Sit quietly with them,
And continue to feel the grounding and supportive energy of Mother Earth loving you and protecting you.
Now I'd like you to turn your attention to the sky above you.
Imagine or visualize the vastness of the universe,
And the endless possibilities that exist beyond your current reality.
Feel the divine feminine energy flowing and surging through you.
This energy is a source of wisdom,
Intuition,
And creativity.
Allow yourself to receive this energy.
Open your heart and your mind to the guidance of the divine feminine.
Trust your intuition.
This is the voice of the divine feminine.
Listen to your intuition now.
What messages are being conveyed to you?
There is a gentle breeze blowing through the forest.
You don't feel cold,
But you want to lie down now and rest a while.
So you can continue to connect with your divine feminine.
As you lay down,
I'd like you to think of a feminine figure who inspires you.
This could be a woman in history,
A fictional character,
Or someone you know.
Someone who embodies qualities you admire,
Such as strength,
Compassion,
Creativity,
Or passion.
See her clearly in your mind's eye.
Her face,
Her posture,
Her expression.
Imagine her in a moment of quiet strength or empowerment.
Feel the warmth of her presence.
Imagine her now sitting beside you,
Offering you a gentle smile and kind,
Inspiring words.
As you listen to these words,
Allow yourself to absorb her qualities.
Imagine her strength flowing into you so that you feel empowered and confident.
Her compassion filling your heart with kindness and love.
Her creativity sparking your imagination and vision.
Her courage bolstering your spirit.
Feel her energy and inspiration.
Be aware of this for a little while longer.
I would like you to imagine a young version of yourself.
Your inner child.
See her clearly.
Their features,
Their expression,
Their vulnerability.
This child is a part of you,
Carrying the hopes,
The dreams,
And the wounds of your past.
With the light of the Divine Feminine,
Approach your inner child with tenderness and understanding.
Offer them a gentle smile,
A knowing look that says,
I see you.
I understand.
Speak with your inner child with love and reassurance.
Remind them they are safe.
And they are worthy of happiness.
Acknowledge your inner child's pain.
Their fears.
Their unmet needs.
As you speak with your inner little one,
Imagine the light of the Divine Feminine enveloping your inner child.
Soothing their wounds and filling them with warmth and love.
Allow the image of your inner child to soften.
Their expression to relax.
Just feel the tension melting away.
Replaced by a sense of peace and security.
Continue to hold your inner child in the light of the Divine Feminine.
Offering them unconditional love and support.
Know that you are always there for them.
Always ready to comfort and heal.
You have powerfully and energetically connected with the Divine Feminine within you during this practice.
You have connected with your inner Divine Mother.
Healed any wounds with your Feminine Ancestry.
You have allowed yourself to tune into your emotions.
And to cultivate and connect with your intuition.
You have imagined a Feminine figure you admire and who inspires you.
And finally,
You have taken time to love and cherish your sweet inner child.
You start to sit up in the forest as you watch the moon rising above the trees.
Feel its gentle,
Nurturing energy.
Connect with the lunar cycles,
The ebb and flow of life.
As you stand beneath the moonlight,
You feel such a sense of peace and serenity.
You are safe.
You are loved.
You are enough.
Let's take a moment now to express gratitude for the Divine Feminine within you.
Thank her for her guidance,
Her strength and her love.
When you feel ready,
Slowly bring your awareness back to your breath.
And back to the sensations within your body.
Gently open your eyes.
Carrying the love and compassion of the Divine Feminine with you into your day or evening.
As you stay aligned to the energy of the Divine Feminine,
Remember.
You are powerful.
You are beautiful.
And you are divine.
Thank you for listening.
And I send you much love.
