Happy International Woman's Day

Happy International Women's Day Women of the World Network™!

On this beautiful spring day, I want to talk about femininity. Google talks about femininity as being "being verbal and communicative, emotive or effusive, being nurturing and having an appreciation for beautiful or aesthetically pleasing things". Tatiana Dudyez says: "some of the most successful women are most feminine". Aren't these such beautiful definitions?

Last year we had an amazing Retreat at Canyon Lake in Hill Country, TX. We had a great get away and 2-days of time for ourselves, away from the daily business and to-do’s. When our Retreat has ended, what I realized is we, business and professional women absolutely need time like this on consistent basis, time to get away, re-charge, but most of all wake up our feminine energy. As business and professional women, we can operate in a masculine energy in the busyness of daily routine: sales, action taking, wealth acquisition, doing something to pursue our ambition. Although, it is important to find time to get back to our femininity and women energy that is more nurturing, inspiring, it desires love, it's supportive. It grounds us and helps us increase our creativity.

To me, being feminine is also being who I truly am, in my daily life, in my business life, being a mother, a daughter, and wife. I definitely see changes happen when I operate from my feminine self and when I am not trying to be anyone else. I notice the flow of my business and my life have this amazing energy about them.

Here are couple of exercises that can help you explore your femininity:
- Find a creative exercise that you love and do it on consistent basis, it could be drawing, dancing or music
- Breathing is always great but now we deep breathe to get grounded and quiet our minds so we can listen to our body and what desires it will like to explore
- Self-healing thoughts - start thinking how amazing, beautiful, sexy, young, healthy, smart, feminine, kind you are (or whatever definition works for you)
