Fear of being “too-woo”? Me too. Let’s talk…
I started meditating almost two decades ago, but I didn’t talk about it openly because I was afraid of being “too woo.”
Eventually, I openly practiced, discussed, and offered mindfulness programs through my work at an academic institution - before it was cool.
A lot has changed since then and meditation and mindfulness is everywhere as the growing body of scientific research shows the physical, mental, emotional, relational, and spiritual benefits.
This pattern continued through many of the integrative health and healing practices that have been so beneficial to my life, including art and inner child work. A period of secrecy and silence followed by slowly integrating it and shyly sharing it out into the open.
That’s how I thought I’d feel about the Akashic Records, a field of unconditional love of the collective consciousness - an ancient, sacred practice to access soul-level wisdom and divine intelligence.
A fear of being seen as “too woo” sprang up again. However, I saw the pattern this time.
The fear of perceptions holding back something that is profound and powerful.
I recognized the pattern, and followed my own intuition and divine intelligence saying this isn’t something to tip-toe in. Jump in, there’s no time to waste. You’re already ready.
In fact, through my exploration into my Akashic Records, I’ve learned that I’ve been choosing this path in many lifetimes. Accessing and sharing intuitive gifts, even at great cost and great loss. I’ve come to find that it wasn’t just the fear of being seen as ‘too woo’ but a deep and real fear based on times when openly sharing these gifts meant persecution. Some call this the “Witch Wound” where women who have shared healing gifts are hunted.
This year the words, Divine Feminism, kept coming up. This is different from but related to Divine Feminine, embracing the soft, sensual side as strength. I didn’t know what Divine Feminism meant at the time. Now I do.
In many religious and spiritual traditions, women’s contributions have been erased from the pages of texts and teachings.
Men have been celebrated while women have been burned.
Divine Feminism is about women reclaiming powerful spiritual gifts and living Empowered. Embodied. Enchanted.
This time, I’m not waiting to share until science tries to catch up to what our souls already know.
If you feel the fear of being ‘too woo’ and have gifts that you’re afraid to show, let’s talk. I'm here with you on the bridge between the Western Culture and the Woo as I reclaim and share my intuitive gifts.
The world needs what we have - now more than ever.
