DAWhy is it that we get our best ideas as we’re falling asleep or during meditation or breathwork?
If you’re anything like me, I have to keep my notes app within reach any time I slow down enough for true stillness. These times are when I get my most inspired downloads because I’m shifting out of the noise and distractions and getting into receiving mode.
They say you’re in your masculine when you’re working, hustling, going, going, going and you’re in your feminine when you slow down to rest and just BE.
One key attribute of the feminine energy - and, yes, we all have both masculine and feminine within us and we should all strive to have balance and harmony between the two - is that it brings us into receiving mode.
What that looks like is:
✨having that ah-hah moment
✨making a huge connection that brings much clarity
✨coming up with the new genius idea out of nowhere
✨getting that thought that resonates so deeply and yet you have no clue where it came from (aka, a “download” or concept of it coming from your Higher Self or Source bc it’s far too profound to have come from little ol’ me)
It’s taken a lot of work to release the limiting belief that “productivity” is to be worn as a badge of honor, but I’m intentionally making it a priority to allow myself to just BE from time to time.
If you’re like me and struggle to allow yourself time to really REST, please know that you are worthy simply by existing. You are unconditionally loved exactly as you are. You are more than enough even if you never check another item off your to-do list.
As I say on @theperfectlybrokenpodcast “we are all perfectly broken together” and you aren’t alone in this. But you’re probably exhausted. You’ve been living in a constant stress response and it’s time to shift your perspective to accepting that rest is just as important and beneficial as striving and pushing yourself.
Hell, I bet you’ll even find yourself solving life’s greatest dilemmas in those times of stillness 😉
