How to Awaken Your Divine Feminine When You Have Lost Yourself
You will need to awaken your Divine Feminine if you have lost yourself.
Losing yourself can happen in various ways. One big way is when you have lost yourself in your multiple roles – as a wife, mother, lover, friend, leader and so on. At the root, you could have beliefs that stop you from connecting with your female energy and shining your core brilliance.
Born female, you could have been taught that you are of the inferior sex to males. You were told that you are to play more of a supporting role. And that you have little or less right to be heard. Invariably, you give your power away.
Thus, your Divine Feminine gets hidden, forgotten and suppressed. Over time, you become increasingly disconnected with her. When you diminish yourself as a female, you feel less attractive and if I guess right, will have difficulties with loving and accepting yourself unconditionally. Aligning with your highest potential becomes challenging. You are unable to hold your own even when you need to show up confidently.
Should this be true, you are not alone.
Throughout history, women have had difficulties with awakening their Divine Feminine even though it is an innate part of who they are. Limiting beliefs are being a woman were conditioned since young. They are pervasive and commonly held. Beliefs such as…
I am just not good enough as compared to the males in my family.
It’s not safe to be heard.
Marrying a man is my meal ticket.
As a wife, my job is to play a subservient role.
For years, you could have been brought up to conform to society’s expectations or to adopt other people’s opinions about what or how females should behave or be like.
What body shape you should have.
What size clothes you should wear.
That as female, you need to do all the household chores. Or that you need to pick up after the boys.
That all females should learn how to cook and sew.
etc.
The list goes on.
As I have pointed out, the consequences are negative. Not only will you be unable to celebrate yourself as a vibrant, significant, and beautiful being that you are, many areas of your life gets negatively impacted as a result.
1. With low confidence, you may become dependent on the man in your life to make decisions for you.
2. You will find it difficult to perform at your best.
3. Your manifesting ability with your dreams gets eroded.
Your Divine Feminine – the Creator, Manifestor, Healer, Intuitive, Sage, Earth Mother – all the qualities that make you a Goddesss – gets shut down 🙁
Claim Your Divine Feminine
Well, I believe that every woman SHINES best when they Awaken their Divine Feminine.
Your Divine Feminine seeks expression. She needs to have a voice that leads from the truth of her being. Suppressing her in a cage for too long can lead to depression and suicidal thoughts. It’s unhealthy.
What you will need to do is to give yourself the permission to find her. To nurture her. To let her know that it is safe for her to speak and to be listened to. She needs to know it is okay for her to step into leadership and that she has every right to shine!
For the longest time, I have had the pain or ache of “not knowing myself” well. When I was a child, I had concluded that I should be invisible and that it was not safe for me to be heard. The conclusions resulted in my inability to express myself well or to articulate what I really felt. I would freeze up when situations that require me to speak up arise.
It was only after I started to work on myself that I experienced a turnaround.
As I gave my Divine Feminine the permission to express herself, she healed. I felt a lot more at ease, alive and connected with the truth of my being. Once shut down, I discovered that I have a voice. Can you imagine how embarrassing it was previously when no words would come out from my mouth when it was my turn to speak?
Even though I still get nervous before a public speaking event, I found out that with practice, I have the ability to present myself – and with clarity and coherence too! It’s been a major transformation for me. Well, I’d like to share 3 Powerful Ways that you can help you toAwaken your Divine Feminine.
How to Awaken Your Divine Feminine
1. Release Limiting Beliefs
Of critical importance, is to bring awareness to the beliefs and emotions that hold you back. As they are usually a result of the past, I recommend that you consider doing inner child healing.
Inner child healing is for addressing your unmet needs and suppressed negative emotions when you were a child. With little resources and tools to cope with the world, you learned to ignore them. In the process, you gave up your childlike innocence, creativity and curiosity to go on new adventures.
The problem is that repressed emotions are still there even after all the years. Covering them up DO NOT make them go away. In fact, they are bound to explode into the open, if you don’t find healthy ways to release them. You’d find yourself reacting disproportionately to the triggers at hand.
Limiting beliefs formed during childhood can affect you as an adult. Just imagine growing up with beliefs about being of an inferior sex because you are born female! You can help yourself by getting inner child healing done, so that you can address some of the beliefs that hold you back from connecting with your Divine Feminine. Release these beliefs, unleash your power in other words!

2. Connect with Mother Nature
Go to the park, seaside or forest. Walk bare feet and lift your arms to the sky. Hug a tree. Meditate in the surroundings. Awaken your senses.
As you meditate, express your gratitude and talk to Mother Nature. Ask her for help to connect with your Divine Feminine.
3. Goddess Journaling
Journaling is a way that can help you retrace memories and connect with true desires. It certainly did for me. Along pathways, I was connected to childhood dreams, forgotten ideas and secret fantasies. The more I wrote, the more I discovered a inner world that was rich, engaging and expansive where my Divine Feminine stands powerful.
I hope that it can be the same for you too.
If you have not tried journaling, I recommend giving it a go! At a low price, you can get started immediately. Get started by first reading my book Self-Discovery Journal for Women: 250 Questions and Writing Prompts to Find Yourself and to Awaken Your Divine Feminine.
Light some candles! Put on the diffuser. Inhale essential oils. Read my book and begin writing. Journaling is low-cost therapy that works!
Stand in the Power of Your Divine Feminine
My world expanded to who I am today. I have been able to reclaim myself. The results: I now write books, conduct classes and respond to calls for stepping up more quickly. Because of how much I had benefitted from the tools I have used, I am now on mission to share more about them. Women I have worked with report to feeling a lightness of being, greater confidence and improved clarity from knowing themselves a lot better.
When you stand in the power of Divine Feminine, you are connected with your intuition, creativity, sensuality, beauty and nurturing spirit. You are able to draw on your sacred feminine gifts and be the amazing Goddess that you are.

Hi Suzie, I agree. What’s in the subconscious can elude us. It’s the reason why it may help if someone else facilitates the inner help. Our shadow self is very good at hiding. It takes skill to draw her out. I get assistance myself whenever I feel stuck. And yes, I agree that when we release into the light, we become stronger in standing in our own divine power. With much love, Evelyn
