Hi love! Welcome back to the Spiritually Empowered Podcast! This podcast is for mystics, seekers, empaths, healers, and highly sensitive souls who are here to wake up spiritually, heal deeply, and embody their sacred purpose on this planet. RECLAIM CONFIDENCE & POWER: A Shamanic Energy Healing Practice for Women | ✨Mystic Monday 9/21 🎥 Watch the full video version on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvYqlnJlB3s&t=445s Learn why the instruction to transcend your ego was built for a masculine nervous system, not most women's, why your power lives in your womb and your root and not in the upper chakras you may already live in, and receive a full guided shamanic grounding meditation to bring you home to your body. This week I want to talk about why so many spiritual teachings tell us to transcend the ego, rise up, elevate the kundalini, get beyond the self, and why that instruction was never built for most women's energy. Most women are already living in the upper chakras of psychic attunement, empathy, and oneness. Telling that woman to transcend further doesn't free her, it disembodies her. Her path to power isn't up and out. It's down, into the root, into the womb, into the body, into Mother Earth herself. If you have ever felt: ~ Like you have deep spiritual awareness and empathy, but no idea how to hold a boundary or stay rooted in your body ~ Like every teacher tells you to transcend your ego, rise higher, dissolve the self, and it leaves you scattered instead of powerful ~ Like you have gone so far into spiritual or psychic realms that you lost your sense of who you actually are ~ Confused why spirituality and religion center a Father God in the sky but rarely honor the sacred feminine, the body, or the earth ~ Chaotic or ungrounded, like your energy is shooting out in every direction instead of staying contained in you ~ Ready to reclaim your energy, your boundaries, and your body as sacred This episode is for you. In this teaching we explore: ~ Why the chakra system and most spiritual teachings are built around a masculine, root centered path, transcendence, rising up the spine, and why that is not a universal instruction for women ~ The difference between the masculine path to power, moving up and out of the body, and the feminine path to power, spiraling down into the womb, the root, and the earth ~ Why embracing the ego, not transcending it, is often the more empowering path for women, and why having a strong container and a separate self is not the opposite of spirituality ~ A full guided shamanic energy healing practice from the high Andes of Peru to call your energy back to you, root down into Mother Earth, and reset your nervous system out of fight or flight ~ Why the planet has overemphasized the transcendent Father God while suppressing the grounded, embodied Holy Mother, and what it means to reclaim both ~ How to use verbal commands, like "I call all of my energy back to me now" and "I belong here," to consciously rebuild your energetic boundaries REFLECTION AND PRACTICE FOR THE WEEK This week, notice where your energy goes when you feel stressed, overwhelmed, or overgiving. Does it shoot upward and outward, or does it stay rooted in your body? Practice the grounding meditation from this episode, even for two minutes a day. Place one hand on your womb and one on your heart, breathe your energy down through your base, and say out loud, "I call all of my energy back to me now." Notice one place this week where you are more identified with transcending, being agreeable, being "spiritual," than you are with simply being present in your body. Choose one moment to stay grounded instead of floating up and out. Say out loud, "I belong here." Let your own ears hear it. Notice what shifts in your body. 🔥 Free gift: The Energy Protection Bundle (verbal commands PDF + morning & evening meditations), the foundational practice of the empath and mystic.
