Think Like a Warrior, Feel Like a Poet!

Iโ€™m on a mission to help awaken and heal the feminine within ourselves and the world.

From the Vedic tradition, the feminine is our source of nourishment and vitality. If this aspect is repressed or disempowered within ourselves, you can bet that a lot of shit happens. Our life path becomes unfulfilling and unclear, it particular affects our relationships, or lack thereof. Weโ€™re likely to get bullied by others and be amidst toxic situations and people. Ultimately we are disconnected from our sense of self โ€“ the home of innateย power.


We know however that the feminine is awakening from centuries old oppression. As the imbalanced masculine force expressed as patriarchy โ€“ย the shadow, rises,ย Shakti, our feminine life force energy fights back.

She is everything that moves, our emotional and mental waves, our breath. Archetypes include the moon, earth and water; she is creator and destroyer; she is the warrior and the healer, for everything in this universe is animated by her energy.

Are you awake and alive to this potent and vibrant energy within? Do you create your world consciously or does life just happen and pass you by?

Disconnection from our divine feminine power leads to so many consequences. Here are a few:

  • Unconscious emotional reactions to external circumstances
  • Intense emotional pain and suffering
  • Lack of clarity and feeling stuck on how to move forward
  • Experience of self-doubt, fear, anxiety and other draining emotions
  • Lack of nourishment and support from others
  • Chaos and disharmony in relationships and personal situations
  • Lack of motivation to step into our power and true purpose

ย 

This disconnection from Shakti, our goddess power, is also a disconnection from ourย mental body. Yet, weย can use our minds to enter our emotional body, our source of power.

How? Through writing or journaling! Through directing our thoughts on to paper to see what is actually going on internally.


The mind is like the cosmic moon, its nature is to move in cycles, influencingย the emotional waves. Our mind can be a great nourisher, like the ocean, if we keep it in syncย with our inner waters (the feeling body).ย The mindย however, is not grounded in the real and the now.ย 

Watch, therefore, your mind, but trust only your feelings!


We need to anchor the mind to the body, which exists in the present moment.

To create a bridge between our mind and body, we need toย think like a warrior and feel like a poet!ย Train the mind by having a daily journaling practiceโ€”ideally in the morningsโ€”this is sometimes called โ€˜morning pagesโ€™ย or a โ€˜stream of consciousnessย writingโ€™. This practice relieves stress, chaos, confusion and releases our repressed or pent up emotions. Confronting our thoughts takes courage. We need the energy of the warrior!

ย 

Martial artists naturally embody the warrior archetype; we work on training our minds regularly to succeed in sparring matches and in general when training.ย In my kung fu practice we are always moving towards a goal, always gleaning the inner layers to find a balance between stillness and movement. Even Bruce Lee honoured the feeling body, โ€œDonโ€™t think, feeeel!โ€ he says in Enter the Dragon. Master how the mind operates, awaken to the feminine, the feeling body โ€“this is where power resides.ย Self-discipline and repetition is key for this self-mastery.


Learn toย feel like a poet,ย keep the pen moving, writing down anything and everything that comes to mind. This may be your daily fears; express your pain! Whatever comes through. As you write, youโ€™ll notice that youโ€™ll naturally move from the level of mind to the level ofย feeling. Be playful if you wish. Doodle. Scribble. Draw. Colour. Or just write. This clears stagnant energy from theย mental bodyย and also moves stuck energy from the other โ€˜Koshasโ€™, or layers of our being, including theย emotional, physical and spiritual.

Writing is an embodiment practice. Pen and paper become an extension of our physical body.ย Ink becomes Shakti.ย Our feelings, however raw or poetic, become expressed and anchored visually. This is a way to awaken and pin point the matter that is dormant or unconsciously whirling around our energy field, triggering unpleasant emotions.

Once you have filled out a page, notice how a sense of nourishment arrives as youโ€™ve now created a space to receive! This is the receptive aspect of the feminine. There is a clearing and a depth of clarity created through this โ€™emptying outโ€™ย process.

A daily journaling practice helps us develop our โ€˜voiceโ€™ and evaluate our needs better, it gives us a container in which we can clearly express ourselves. This leads to being better able to communicate our needs to other people and to reacting more calmly to external triggers.
ย 
Deepen the relationship with yourself. Allow nourishment to arrive by clearing space. Gain control over your unconscious reactions. Connect to your emotional body now!

I have a quest coming up to help you with this process! โ€˜Enter the Dragonโ€™s Caveโ€™ an 11 Day Writing Challenge to Awaken the Shero Within.โ€™ Join now!ย Take the quest with other sensitive souls and awaken your warrior spirit! Join my private Facebook group: Warrior Training for the Sensitive Soul.ย It starts soon!

Daily journaling practice leads to deep wisdom gained as Shakti, the divine feminine is your inner intelligence. Find the stillness within the chaos, find the right action within the stillness.

ย The stillness in stillness is not the real stillness; only when there is stillness in movement does the universal rhythm manifest.ย โ€“ Bruce Lee

Think like a warrior, feel like a poet! Experience this transformation and heal your Self!

Marriage of Convenience or True Love? 8 Signs Youโ€™re Just Settling

Marriage of Convenience or True Love? Signs Youโ€™re Settling

If you think you are in a marriage of convenience, you will know that it doesn’t feel like a fairy tale, rather it’s about maintaining the status quo. Maybe you are staying in this marriage because everything is “okay” and “stable”.

All the bills are getting paid on time, the house is comfortable, and the kids are happy to have both their parents under the same roof. Moreover, you don’t want to deal with the hassle that comes with filing for a divorce, so you just…stay.

Does this sound familiar? The unfortunate truth is that many married couples stay in a loveless marriage because dealing with the alternate option is scary. Theyโ€™re together, but theyโ€™re not really together. They function more like roommates, business partners, or co-parents rather than lovers.

So, if you have ever thought, “A

The 2025 Mercury Retrogrades Will Test Your Zodiac: Hereโ€™s Whatโ€™s Coming!

Mercury Retrogrades in Here is What You NEED to Know !

Have you ever noticed things suddenly going haywire in your lifeโ€”like messages getting lost, gadgets breaking down, or travel plans falling apart? Chances are, Mercury might be in retrograde! Here are the key dates for mercury retrogrades in 2025 and how it will affect each zodiac sign!

When Mercury retrogrades, it looks like itโ€™s moving backward in the sky from Earthโ€™s point of view. This happens three or four times a year, and while itโ€™s not actually moving backward, it sure can make life feel upside down. Mercury rules communication, travel, and technology, so when it “reverses,” expect disruptions in these areas. Think delayed flights, misunderstood texts, missing packages, or even running into an ex unexpectedly. Yikes!

However, on the brighter side, Mercury retrograde isnโ€™t just about chaos. Itโ€™s also a time for s
