Masculine energy creates the safety and carves out the time our feminine energy needs in order to breathe into our art.

When people aren't making progress in their business, we can say they're stuck and don't know what to try next, they're overwhelmed by all the jobs on their list, they have a subconscious block that's causing them to self-sabotage, they're exhausted from all the effort (burnt out) or the classic: I just don't have time.

This can all be true.

But you know what else might be true?

They might be excellent at feminine flow and terrible at masculine container.

Or the other way around.

The feminine flow is the unfolding of the work, the flow. It's you being you. It's you enjoying being alive. It's the intuition on what to do. It's the very act of creating in pure joy. For me, it's the silence of the day.

The masculine container is the goal, the allocated time, the deadline and the security. It says: "You're safe, go ahead". For me, it's time in my diary, allocated to work on something I care about.

When you realise both are needed to be successful you can start to look at what you're good at and where you need to put a little more focus.

For example, setting the alarm and getting up with purpose is your masculine energy. Enjoying a slow breakfast, walking the dog in peace (listening to the birds and enjoying nature), then sitting down to create without pressure is your feminine energy.

Likewise, making a to do list is masculine energy. Journalling to clear your thoughts is feminine energy.
Putting allocated time in your diary is masculine energy. Enjoying your spontaneity in that time is your feminine energy.

If you're overwhelmed by all the things on your list, you never have time to create your art or or you're afraid you won't make it through the month, you need to learn how to master your masculine energy to give yourself security, to provide focus, to ring fence time for your important art.

If you're lost in mindless tasks, your nervous system feels totally overstimulated, you feel angry and irritable and burnt out by the end of the day, you need to learn how to give room to your feminine energy to offload the deadlines, to sit in your own energy and to make time for you, to make your art, to soak up the healing vibes of nature.
This is the topic of today's episode. It's actually taken from last month's membership content on how to balance masculine and feminine energies to bring your work to the world.

Watching this, you will understand how masculine and feminine energy combine to help you bring your art to the world, you'll get original new ideas for experiencing both energies and you'll have also get a chance to see what this Be The Person membership is all about.

I really hope you enjoy today's episode. If you do, drop me a little message to let me know.
