Have you ever really stopped to think about how capable you are of feeling your feelings (the good ones and the bad ones)? I once read that in order to feel your good feelings you must also know how to feel you’re not so good feelings. So a better questions is – Do you know how to feel your bad/negative/dark feelings?

On this blog, I often talk about the concept of leaning back (aka standing still) in a relationship. It is a concept that was developed by Relationship Coach, Rori Raye. It does not matter if you are just dating or married. It is a vital concept in “The Art of Loving a Man” because it is all about staying in your feminine energy and “Being” instead of “Doing.” Women have been taught to be masculine and fix problems and manage and control things in relationships. We have lost the art of allowing. To just allow things to be, is so foreign it feels unnatural to us. Yet, as a woman it is the most natural thing we can do. It is a mans job to cherish your feelings, help fix relationship problems, and direct his energy toward you.  So why would you want to stay in your feminine energy? So your man will move into his masculine energy. Once he does this, you and your man can experience balance, polarity attraction and romance. The key to leaning back is that you also stay warm and inviting at the same time. It is an art you learn. Whenever you and your man are experiencing a little friction or he seems to be withdrawing or you are dating a new man, there will come a time you will need to lean back and stand still (being instead of doing). Doing this will create space between you and your man and he will be able to direct his energy toward you when he is ready.

According to Relationship expert, Dr. Pat Allen, the success of a romantic relationship rests on two principles when you utilize the magic of feminine and masculine energy:

1. A man’s greatest psychic craving is that his thoughts be respected.

“When you are just as comfortable in discomfort as you are in comfort, you are FREE” I read this the other day and it reminded me of the core foundation to a good relationship with a man – When you are okay and feel good with whatever he does. Maybe he does something magical and romantic that lights up your heart and you feel peace or maybe he is inconsiderate or thoughtless and you still feel peace. This is the key! Of course you can be upset and should voice your feelings to him (trick is to do it with no blame, or criticism) but peace should be the undercurrent beneath your emotion of anger or sadness. I know this sounds complicated and strange yet, this is what allows a woman to stay centered in her goddess energy when her man is not meeting her expectations. Staying centered (aka standing still)  with an open heart is what triggers his passion and attraction for you.  A man absolutely goes crazy over a woman who has control over her emotions. It is not easy work. It all begins with your inner world and once you have your inner world under your control you will sparkle and shine and will mesmerize any man.

Hello Beautiful Goddess,  It’s been awhile since I’ve posted a blog. I have felt a bit uninspired lately. I feel like I keep talking about the same relationship topics and their getting old. I wanted to bring you something different, something new, some magical formula that will help fix everything and transform all your bad relationships and negative patterns. So I sat with myself a few weeks to see what came to me.

My bible this month is still David Deida’s book, “It’s a Guy Thing.” His in depth understanding of intimacy and the psychology of love is sooo good. Whenever I read his stuff every other coach seems so amature. I try to be very particular about what I post and when I read this page I knew I had to share it. As women how many times have we felt unloved by the man in our life? In some cases it is real, but in most cases it is not. Check out David’s perspective on feeling loved below. 🙂

So El Guapo got called away for work for the year. He will be back 1x per month or I will fly to see him 1x per month. This happened last year also and we made it through by seeing each other 2x a month. The new plan to see each other only 1x per month makes me feel like my organs are going to fall out of my body. He has been gone 3 weeks and it feels like I have a raging fire in my heart. Sorry for the dramatic description of my feelings.

In my last blog I talked about the stand off between my observer mind (higher mind) and my ego ( crazy negative thoughts) in regards to my relationship. Update…. I am winning! Over the last few weeks I have done an amazing job keeping up with the Goddess way of life. I have been triggered, noticed the old story in my mind, stared it down and it has dissolved. With all this work I have been able to stay clear in my energy and soft and sweet with El Guapo (husband). It’s crazy to think about how much drama I have avoided by taking responsibility and transforming my negative thoughts patterns. My reward? El Guapo is as romantic, attentive and cherishing as ever. In celebration (lol) I want to share one of my FAVORITE books. It is entitled “It’s a Guy Thing” by David Deida. It really explains the whole masculine and feminine thing beautifully. See excerpt below!

Love Love Love!!! I found this article that perfectly describes what to DO and NOT DO when a man pulls away. This is a very big topic in the relationship coaching world and one of the most difficult things for women to learn. Truthfully this is the thing that I find most challenging in my relationship. Even though “El Guapo” consistently showers me with love and affection there are times when his business causes him so much stress he withdraws. When this happens I feel like my heart is being torn from my chest and my crazy thoughts take off. Yet, now I know how to reverse all the craziness and handle it like a Goddess-Boss! This is because I have done lots of healing of my fearful mind (developed observer mind) and accept the fact that men withdraw under stress. Yet, being able to handle your man’s withdrawal takes an immense about of willpower. You need willpower in order to not react dramatically or engage in irrational behaviors. This goddess willpower must be developed if you are to relax into your feminine essence while a man pulls away. Relaxing into your feminine essence means letting go of control and allowing your man to do what he needs to do, while trusting he will emotionally and physically return when he is ready. Now please always remember there are situations where men are pulling away because they are not that into you and you are not a priority to them. That is a different situation. Read below article from Mirabelle Summers that I enjoyed so much. I found it on this website – https://commitmentconnection.com/

So this split mind thing is funny, once you get a hang of it . There is the you that is constantly struggling with sh*# and then there is the part of your mind that is watching you struggle. WTF! Let me update you on my letting go process with El Guapo (husband). As I mentioned in an earlier post, there is something El Guapo is doing that is driving me crazy. It is not a deal breaker by any means. It’s just an issue he has. His behavior is setting off emotional triggers in me like crazy. It feels like fireworks on the 4th of July in my stomach. My inability to control the situation is making me neurotic on a good day. So literally for a week I have been having a standoff with the 2 parts of my mind ( awareness/observer and ego/drama). It’s like the old western movies with the cowboys and the guns.
