Awakening the Divine Feminine

Welcome to the WHOLISTIC LIVING PODCAST: Episode 24
Aligning Body, Mind, and Soul with Elena Bensonoff

Hi there. Welcome to the podcast. My name is Elena Bensonoff – Quantum Energy Practitioner, clinical pharmacist, and Health Expert. Today, we will be discussing the topic of discovering the divine feminine within. I will help you identify this energy within yourself and teach you how to express the divine feminine in your own life.

What exactly do I mean by the divine feminine?

For the sake of understanding this concept, embrace the fact that “feminine” is expressed as an energy rather than a gender. The feminine essence is the darkness unknown from which everything comes. At the most basic level, we are all born from a womb of darkness into the light of the world. Then, we transition to the womb of the world where we develop and are “reborn” again and again – as we evolve spiritually, mentally, even cellularly.

This “darkness” can sound scary or intimidating, but it’s a beautiful pause – the place for listening, creating, feeling, and allowing emotions to flow through you… to observe instead of act, to connect with your intuition for guidance instead of needing cold hard facts. It’s love, grace, and trust. The Divine feminine is a universal force, liberating and restoring knowledge that has been lost.

The Divine feminine is the embodiment of heart-centered living – to really live as opposed to just existing and going through the motions. It’s an awareness of the unseen forces at work around us, like: symbolism, inspiration, and emotion. It’s an acceptance that things come and go in cycles, like the moon in the sky. Feminine awareness is not linear or time/space limited. It’s an expansive and multifaceted Divine intelligence that will touch each of our lives at some point.

A few years ago, I met with some of my dearest friends in Paris, where the Divine feminine was divided long ago. I have always felt a deep spiritual connection to Mary Magdalene in my personal journey and the work I do. If you don’t know much about her sacred legacy, I highly recommend reading The O Manuscript by Lars Muhl. I was encouraged by the feminine revolution happening there.

The rise of the Divine feminine is upon us.

We’re seeing this shift of Divine feminine rising happening in many social and governmental structures around the globe. Truths are progressively being brought to the surface to receive healing on a global level. This change is happening on the macro and the micro level – from humans healing their psychological wounds, to governments changing destructive policies, to companies making strides to reduce environmental strain on the planet.

Though the Divine feminine will find each of us in unique ways, there are ways you can begin honoring this energy to nurture the powerful presence in your personal life now. No matter what method you choose, know that love is the most influential force for this movement.

Something very important to understand when discussing the rise of the Divine feminine is that it’s not an attack or a smear campaign on the Divine masculine energy. The rise of the Divine feminine is a shift in awareness to help realign the two energies. Think of it as a spiritual rebalancing. We can balance the masculine energy in life to serve the heart-centered path of the feminine in a Divine dance of yin and yang energy. The masculine needs the feminine for grounding, creativity, and heart-centeredness and the feminine needs the masculine for logic, action, and lightness of spirit. They depend on each other.

Here are some ways that I help my clients tap into the divine feminine energy:

• Imagine the warm sensation of a mother’s unconditional love and let that love flow to every part of your being.
• Allow yourself to slow down and infuse more stillness and self-care, more unscheduled time for exploring creativity in the waking world.
• Do not fear your emotions - feel them.
• Be unafraid to walk away from spaces that aren’t loving and supportive.
• Be patient with yourself. Realize that you do not need to be accomplishing and achieving to be worthy.
• Inner work is an ongoing process. Remember to seek balance in all aspects of your being to truly live life to the fullest.
