Restoring balance and nurturing empowerment

Beauty, creativity, and collaboration are all expressions of the divine feminine, which has been devastatingly devalued in recent times. So, while on the surface, it may seem frivolous to think about aesthetics and artistry when our world faces so much tragedy, I believe that reconnecting with the feminine essence, including empathy, intuition, and receptivity, is part of the sacred medicine that we all need right now.

It’s important to acknowledge our anger and our grief—they are powerful teachers. But we can then consider what role we play in restoring energetic equilibrium that nurtures empowerment, happiness, peace, and love.

When we bring the divine feminine into balance with the divine masculine, we heal the suffering of this world.

So let us rediscover the beauty within ourselves and in others. And let’s mend those relationships that have been frayed or neglected over time. It’s never too late to return to a state of wholeness, which is the essence of wellness.

Our capacity to destroy one another is matched by our capacity to heal one another. Restoring relationships and community is central to restoring well-being.
