Feminine Power Time with Christine Arylo

Every year in January I wait to do this special Feminine Power Time session until the timing feels just right. This year, it was exactly on the crescent moon, a moon about accessing deeper our deeper intuitive knowing from a place of stillness. It's also the "wolf moon" - the wolf being a symbol of free untamed feminine power, the teacher who guides through action, and the need for our packs and time to play. I've been thinking of you all for two weeks and what would emerge to be shared on the yearly "Feminine Wisdom for The Year Ahead" episode. This year I added... with Grace & Gumption (because we will need both!) After weeks of being in my own reflection and visioning process, watching what's happening in the world, deepening in my own practice and listening for guidance from Wisdom with a capital W, once again, a series of 'wisdom bytes' flowed out. Tune in for this year's Feminine Wisdom for the Year Ahead, - 2021, a yearly occurrence here at Feminine Power Time. It's not about fortune telling, it's about reading the signs all around us, feeling the knowings within us, and then being WISE about what is happening in the world and how we desire and choose to show up. Feminine wisdom teaches us to prepare for the intensity, uncertainty, transformation and change that is just part of how the world is operating right now. Not to brace yourself for it, but to embrace it, pace yourself through it and cultivate the vitality, resilience and wisdom you'll need to stay elevated above the fray and the chaos. Tune in with me, Christine Arylo, feminine leadership advisor and women's leadership and empowerment teacher, as we dive in. See you there!

There are big misunderstandings in our culture about visioning, goal setting & achieving that stem from a "go, go , go, work hard, stay busy" mindset that many of us have been trained to operate from.... which honestly set us up for more pressure, overwhelm and self-criticism vs. true, sustainable success. Even in teachings you hear about manifestation, the law of attraction and vision board - there's significant distortions that can lead you to creating realities, careers, businesses, lifestyles that are unsustainable... keeping you working hard & so busy, but not feeling sustained or successful. There is a different way to dream + succeed. That's what we'll explore & share together in the next three episodes, focused on supporting you to see the unsupportive ways you've been taught to approach goal setting and the start of the year... and reveal some other ways to think about and approach this year, so you really do FEEL successful and sustained at the end of the year. In this first of the three part Feminine Power Time series - #144: A Different Way to Start Your Year & Set Your Goals we'll dive into: Why Jan 1st is really truly the natural start of the new year - and how shifting your relationship to this can create both healthy time pressure AND spaciousness Why setting resolutions and goals are set ups for stress, pressure and not feeling like you are ever doing enough or where you want to be Elevating your language and metaphors around how to achieve The power of "Co-Creation" - which feels empowering -- vs the law of attraction and basic manifestation which often creates self criticism, self induced pressure, and fantasy based or external based goals Esoteric teachings that were used thousands of years ago to create and work in ways that created more ease than hard struggle. Feminine Wisdom Principle for Visioning and Intention Setting #3 and #5 - you will love these! I love sharing this deep and practical wisdom every year at this time as a different way to vision, succeed and reach out goals. Tune in. See you there, and for more check out below. Christine p.s. I will also share about where I've been the last two weeks - exhale. Which is part of how I stay sustained, out of overwhelm and get what matters done. *** Upcoming Programs - Learn more 1.

Would you like to start the new year feeling clear - mentally & emotionally? Like your physical space to feel clear and coherent? Like to be free of some of the relationship drama or distress in your personal or professional relationships? And how would it feel to have more space in the last few weeks of this year and the first few weeks of next year? Of course our answers to this are YES! Starting the new year clear is not just a nice to have - it's what any wise person would do. But how do you 'do' that? You put into place simple but mighty practices that empower to you make choices that lead to you working and living and feeling in the f.l.o.w. (Focusing Lifeforce On What matters. The practice we'll dive into today is called a Power Pause and uses the wisdom tool of 'intuitive thinking inquiries' that reveal insights you miss if you only operate from your mental mind. In this episode of Feminine Power Time: a Power Pause: 3 Inquiries to Help You Complete the Year Feeling Clear, I will share the FLOW practice I use myself every year at this time, and we do as part of living and working the feminine wisdom way. It includes 3 questions that will help you Complete and put energy toward what you really desire to get done and take care of - in relation to your body needs, your money management, your home space and your mental space Bring 'twiggly danglers' in your relationships into coherency in a healthy way - parts of relationships professionally or personally in where something it out of whack or alignment, that you know deep down if you don't deal with will come back next year in a more dramatic way. Reflow projects and things you'd like to do but you know there's not really space to do until next year - which will create space for you to savor these next few weeks and the first weeks of the new year. I will also share some very specific examples of what I do to create space, relief and release this way - including just releasing 3800 emails in one hour! Do this power pause with me now and then come to the full Year End Reflection Ritual and Power Pause on Dec 20th www.ReflectionRitual.com So grateful we are connected!

What would I love to let go? (Emotional or physical twiggly dangelers you choose to leave behind in 2020) 3. What would feel good and aligned to re-flow (move this into next year)?

Wisdom teaches us that how you end a year influences how you start the next. Which is why every year at this time, I pause to tap into feminine wisdom to ask what do we need to see, what do we need to hear, and what do we need to consider as we walk through these weeks ahead. So that you and I can complete this year in a way that enables and empowers us to be as replenished, radiant, rested, centered and clear as possible. Not to hit the ground running in Jan, but to be wise and centered enough to allow ourselves the space we will still need and desire. Even if you feel like you have had plenty of 'space' this year, there is wisdom to share. Join me for this episode of Feminine Power Time: Feminine Wisdom for Completing an Intense and Wild Year where I invited the wisdom for what we needed to hear to flow through. In addition to the wisdom that flowed, I'll share: A simple year end Harmonizing Practice I do every year that helps me make sustaining vs. sabotaging choices Another practice for getting clear on how you want to feel as you start the year so the choices you make reflect that. Inquiries to ask yourself to get clear on what you really want to do vs. what is obligation or habit to do. Perspective about how to think about the last weeks of this year and first weeks of next year, so you can powerfully use the time to receive what you need and focus on what matters I look forward to the conversation. And a few surprises that showed up for me, in my own process, that I'll share. So grateful we are connected!

It is human nature to have grief - when we lose things, things change, or we look around at the state of our lives and world and don't know what to do. It's also natural to feel grumpy and frustrated about things not working out the way we want, to have anger. What's not natural - or healthy, healing or empowering - is how we have been taught as human to be with and release the grief or grumpiness. I believe we NEED to re-learn how to be with these very natural feelings, in our personal lives and relationships and in our collective society, it's part of the key to our own personal wholeness and wellbeing AND to us healing the collective societal separations. But how do you do that? Well, join me, Christine Arylo, for this Feminine Power Time: Grief, Grumpy and Gratitude: How to be with all 3 to tap into deeper wisdom and personal freedom. Where I will walk us through a process that helps you tap into each of these 3 feelings that your human heart and human body is no doubt feeling. Wisdom: Only once we can acknowledge what is or what has been, can we heal and release the pain, so we can elevate into new ways of being, in which we make our choices and create our cultures from wholeness. I taped this originally on the day after American Thanksgiving intentionally. I will share about: Why this day of thanksgiving and gratitude in itself has deeper roots that need to be acknowledged and grieved so we can create a world that honors all people and planet. The power of "HOLDING SPACE" ... what it is, why you and I both need this, and how to make sure it's present in your life. Where grief and anger gets stored within us, and how & why you may want to embrace a annual process for being with it and releasing it. I will also walk you through this 4 step process - the 4Gs for releasing grief and grumpiness, so you can tap into authentic gratitude and grounded wisdom. The result: You are lighter because you are not carrying all the grief and anger within you. Your heart opens and heals. And you gain more personal freedom, which empowers you to be a brighter light and a more harmonic instrument for others. So much to share!

Welcome to our first Wise Woman Tea episode, where I invite you into a conversation with one of my dear wise woman soul sisters - women who have attained a level of adeptness in a specific area that I believe can support each of us to tap into our own intuitive knowing, co-creative power, and higher intelligence. Often these areas are poo-poo'd or woo' woo'd away - discounting their significance to the 'real world' or to our practical needs or to what is relevant to topics like business, leadership and activism. When the truth is, these wise woman skills, arts, knowings and practices empower us to see and find what's real beyond the screen the mainstream overculture would like us to tune into. In my experience, the distrust or skepticism we have, or the lack of focus we put in these areas, is part of where we leak and diminish our power. When we embrace these wisdom teachings, skills, practices and arts and explore them with curiosity, we often are invited into a wealth of wisdom and new possibility we were previously blind to. For this Feminine Power Time: Perspective for Thriving in Intense Times, I invited Astrologer Leslie McGuirk who is also a writer and creativity expert who is known for "pioneering an intersection between medicine and astrology, revealing the fastest pathway for mental and spiritual growth" to join us. Leslie, is also really a dear friend, a woman I trust, who has helped me and the women leaders I've sent to her, to gain a better understanding of ourselves and how we are designed - to find more courage, compassion and confidence. We'll dive into three areas with the intention of giving us all PERSPECTIVE SHIFT for meeting these intense times as we step into this new year. 1. What is astrology, really? What isn't it? How come it gets woo woo'd and poo poo'd? How can we use it powerfully? 2. Perspective on what we are going through collectively in 2020 - what is happening? why is it happening? how can we be with it? 3. Perspective on how to walk into the months ahead, in a way that feels both empowering and present to what is, and open to what can be. See you there!

The choices we make in our every day for how we direct and give our energy, our resources, our time and money all add up to having a significant impact on you ... but most of us don't really see how these simple decisions are the drivers underneath us feeling stretched too thin, or not being focused on what matters, or just getting swirled up in the world. Which is why we are doing this podcast series! So your can be more aware of what's going on within you and with your choices ... so you can be empowered to make choices that are creating the reality you desire for yourself, those you love and lead and this world. Join me for #3 of 3 in our series called Embracing Our Power. This episode of Feminine Power Time focused on "Making Choices that are Right for you Now". I'll pull back the veil on how this is showing up in my life now, to hopefully help you see what is in alignment and not in alignment for you right now. Then we'll look at how you might be feeling and filling a need out there in your work or relationships or families that is causing you to not receive the support or space you need. And lastly, we'll dive into what choices your deeper wisdom is calling you to make ... things to let go of ... and ways it is time to step into the unknown Tune in. Dive in.

Within you is the courage and the clarity to make choices that are right for you - that cut through the chaos - that come from the deep feminine wisdom within you willing to shake up the status quo to stay true to yourself ... choices that may seem crazy to others but that will keep YOU sustained, on your path, supported with what you need. I call this the Feminine Super Power of Crazy Wisdom. And every year at this time, I bring it back up for us to work with. Because as it turns out Crazy Wisdom is Crazy Powerful. It gives you the courage and clarity to make different choices, that may defy logic. It's not reckless, it is rooted in the deep intuitive place within you that knows what is right, real and aligned for you. And now more than ever we need this super power. I'll share the full definition of Crazy Wisdom in this episode of Feminine Power Time #2 of 3 in our Embracing Our Power series... And I'll share more about how your intellect and intuition work together to access your deeper wisdom... how to know and feel how this deeper wisdom feels and works for you... And we'll use this super power to tune you into what your deeper, soul-led, Crazy Wisdom is whispering to you... so you can hear this deeper guidance through the swirl out there. I'll end with a series of 6 inquiries I use myself, and with the women in the Feminine Wisdom Way and the retreats I do at this time. Chew on them. Consider them. Go beyond what you've know to reveal the possibility and truth of you and the path ahead. Also - I do a reading from Overwhelmed and Over It (starting on page 35).

We have become so resilient that we have become too tolerant. We have said yes to keep doing more with less. Piling more on to already too full plates. Assimilating into ways of working and managing our lives that frankly haven't been working for a long time. Now is the time, to give voice to what is no longer sustainable for you... in your work, in your relationships, in your life design, in your health and wealth. And then look around, and realize this : It's not your fault. You are not alone. And together, we do have the power to change this. There are MANY many women and beings who feel the same way - overwhelmed, overworked and over it. Tired of over stretching themselves to make it work, make ends meet, get things done. We've been talking about this for years at Feminine Power Time. And we are at the breakthrough or breakdown point ... which will you choose? I invite you in to this three part series of Feminine Power Time : Embracing Our Power... where we will tap into the wisdom in the new Overwhelmed and Over It Book to explore and activate the ways we collectively and you individually can embrace and embody our power to STOP what's not working, SUSTAIN ourselves and those we love and lead, and RE-IMAGINE and RE-DESIGN the new. The first episode in our series invites you to activate your power of taking a stand to say NO MORE... i have used this many times to make a change, call in the Universe's support and start making small but significant shifts that lead to the bigger shifts that have set me free. Tune in. See show notes below for some of the inquiries and steps I shared. And the page numbers I referred to from Overwhelmed and Over It - and get your copy of the new book! www.overwhelmedandoverit.com See you there.

Did you ever consider there are ways that you are putting pressure on yourself which are stressing you out that you actually have the power to change? And as a result free yourself from some of the stress, anxiety, frustration, uncertainty, overworking, etc. that you might be feeling? There's plenty of stressors out there in the world that you can't change. And there are many ways you can create some space and ease for yourself, if you can reveal the 'self induced' pressure that most of us are blind to. Which is why for our #3 of 3 Feminine Power Time episode in the Lighten Your Load series: "Release Yourself from the Unrealistic Expectations Stressing You Out" we will dive into 3 areas where we most often create toxic, unnecessary pressure which we have the power to release. The world has changed. Our worlds have changed. Which we need to change our expectations for how we work, how much we can get done, and what we need to be supported and sustained. Instead of just doing the same or more with less, instead of embracing the unrealistic time frames for achieving things or growing, instead of expecting people to be different than they are ... embrace your power to stay centered and sustained by releasing unnecessary expectations. Then exhale :) As you tune in, with me, Christine Arylo, consider: 1. Where am I holding myself to unrealistic expectations about how much I should be able to do, or how much I can do, in a day/week/month/rest of this year? 2. How am I holding myself to unrealistic expectations for how fast I should be able to achieve a goal or make something happen? 3. How am I holding others to unrealistic expectations to be or act or show up a certain way, that if I was being honest about who they really are, would free ME of the pain/struggle/frustration I feel?

It's time to activate and utilize one of the most powerful tools we have to stay centered, sustained and focused on what matters - the Power Pause. This one, gets us focused the last 3 months / 4 moon cycles of the year. There are many things you could do these last 3 months of the year, but what is really most important to you? What will bring you the best returns ? And what shifts in your habits, patterns, and structures are needed to support you in this last cycle? Wise women know how to use the natural cycles of the earth and universe to support them to grow their work, wealth and relationships, to support their health, and to keep them focused on what matters. The September Equinox offers you insight to illuminate where the imbalances currently exist in your life & how to reset yourself and refocus your life force - especially the ways in which you are over giving and under receiving, the habits that may have worked in the summer but won't support you now, and the ways in which making changes to your home, health and wealth can support you to end your year strong, sane and supported. In this Feminine Power Time : POWER PAUSE: Reflect, Rebalance and Reset Your Focus at Equinox ... and exhale! 3 Inquiries to Get Focused on What Matters Most the Last Part of this Year & Feel Good About What You've Already Done... Women's leadership and empowerment advisor and teacher, Christine Arylo, marries her MBA business background with 15+ years of wisdom and spiritual study in practical ways that can support you to elevate out of overhwelm, stay focused on what matters, shift sabotaging habits and take care of small things that make a big difference. Tune into this Power Pause and: Learn the wisdom behind taking power pauses 4 times a year - and how this practice can yield big returns in your business, career, relationships and health/wealth/home Experience the feminine way of growing our work and impact vs tackling projects, driving like a torpedo, or pressuring ourselves to make things happen too fast Be led through a visualization and meditation to: Feel good about what you have already done this year. Reveal the imbalances - work, relationships, health, wealth or home - that need attention. Consider what you need to bring the imbalances into harmony, so you have what you need Gain clarity on how to best focus your attention the last part of this year - what will bring you the most meaningful and abundant harvest?

Being able to stay centered within uncertainty in normal times is challenging, but pile on all of the intensity happening right now that is igniting fear and chaos within and around us, and even the most seasoned yogini would fret, freeze, flail or fragment. Turn off the chatter outside and inside, and come to this session of Feminine Power Time, to exhale, BREATHE, and tune into a deeper wisdom, thought shifting perspectives and practical practices to put into place to meet the uncertainty and step powerfully into the unknown. In part 2 of our Lighten Your Load Series "Handling the Uncertainty and the Unknown" we will dive into: Getting clear on how much training you've actually had for dealing with the current levels of uncertainty How we strengthen our 'super power for being with and stepping into the unknown" - like re-imprinting Basic Trust, re-leasing Primal Fear, and Seeing Different Levels of Reality (yes, we are going to put our wise woman / being glasses on) How to create structure within the chaos that don't have you holding your breath ... you can't hold your breath til XYZ is over or some event passes And More. Tune in. It is very intense right now. And this intensity as been building for years, maybe thousands. We'll talk about time and where we are as a culture as we start this session. I'm here. We are in the midst of a massive transformation. How we walk through this is what matters. Sacred transformation - we are devoted to the change, awake and aware at a collective and individual level, not spiritually bypassing or staying stuck in the mass consciouness of the material world. There is wisdom. There are tools. Together, we can and will heal, stabilize and lead the way to the new. See you there. Much love, Christine *** More resources and ways to connect and go deeper 1.

The amplified energy, chaos, fear and angst in what is called the "collective field" affects each one of us, and in today's intense times is short circuiting us, and stirring up anxiety, anger and ache within us that 1. Isn't serving us 2. Doesn't help anyone 3. Will make us mentally foggy and physically and emotionally unwell and 4. Keeps us in reactivity mode vs. in response mode, where our power is. We just don't SEE the negative affects of the collective field until it's gotten to be TOO MUCH, and we are in overwhelm or worse, reacting from anger, anxiety and grief. So, what do we do? We get wise. We get aware - of both the field (what it is) and our own internal triggers and warning signals of when we are being affected. We put practices into place proactively to strenghten our magnetic field. To release the anger, anxiety and grief. To reset our systems. And we embrace that while we do need to be AWARE of what is happening, ACKNOWLEDGE what is not okay with us, we cannot take it all on. I am creating this three part series of Feminine Power Time for you so you can "Lighten Your Load"... be with what is in a conscious connected way without getting flooded, sick, triggered, overwhelmed or overwraught. We really do need deeper and elevated perspectives, and super powered practices to move through this time. That's what we do here! Join for this episode #133 where we focus on dealing with the anger, anxiety and ache caused by the UNIVERSAL COLLECTIVE FIELD ... all the things in the culture, society, natural disasters, pandemics, environment, media, politics that are affecting us in BIG WAYS energetically, emotionally and physically and psychically, and mentally. Then next week we will dive into dealing with the anger, anxiety and ache that comes from so much UNCERTAINTY and UNKNOWN. and the next week from the UNREALISTIC EXPECTATIONS of what we should be able to get done, do, produce, etc. during this time. See below for a list of the Stay Harmonized practices I share in the episode. As well as happenings, trainings and more coming up. Wherever you are, know you are held and guided.

Fierce Grace. If you asked me to describe embodied Feminine Power in two words i would say "Fierce Grace." When we are truly rooted in our unique expression of fierce grace we have access to our full power, presence, purpose and wisdom. Which is why I'm finally, after two years of dreaming about it, starting this series of Fierce Grace Talks now for us. These will take place throughout the year, inviting you into a conversation with me and a being who I have witnessed embodying fierce grace in the devotion to their sacred work and in the presence publicly and privately. Since we just literally sent my fourth book off to the printer this week, I was inspired for us to dive into how we can share our words and writing with the world. Whether you are a writer, or want to be, or you want to write a book, or a blog, or just show up more powerfully in your authentic presence in your communications -- or just start writing for JOIY because you have something to say or you just want to! COME to this conversation. I invited Kristine Carlson, NY Times Best Selling Author of Don't Sweat the Small Stuff for Women, founder of the Book Doula incubator and community, and a woman who has been like a big sister to me in my writing and book career to join us for Fierce Grace Talk #1: Sharing Your Words & Writing with the World" It seems like the perfect time to pull the veil back and have a heart to heart about what writing a book is like ... how it catalyzes your personal growth ... and what support and structure is really needed. And HOW to just get started. And to also explore at this time when so many voices are speaking out there -- how do YOU want to show up, speak up and share ? In a way that matters to you? Feels good to you? And is adding to the world you desire to create for yourself and others? This is the power of Fierce Grace. Take us with you for a walk.. pour some tea and settle in... take us out in the sun to do some earthing, heck pour a bath or snuggle up in bed ... it's a heart to heart ... supporting us each to share our words and writing in the world in ways that light YOU up and light up those you touch. Wherever this finds you... the words you share and the presence you share them through - in your voice, your energy, your purpose - matters. Nothing is too small, we start where we are. You matter. Believe it.

If you were to ask me what is one of things that has been the most supportive to helping me bring my sacred work into form, grow in my career and stay true to my path, make bold changes in my life, move past my own doubt and fear to find clarity and courage I would tell you - Sisterhood. Not networking. Not professional trainings where everyone shows up and pretends they have it all together. Not the number of followers on my social media. Sisterhood that is rooted in straight up love. Now before you go getting images of some sappy hallmark card or some kumbaya circle of women holding hands, let me invite you into a conversation that I hope will open your eyes and heart to what sisterhood is and how it relates to the real, whole life success we desire. Because if you and I are going to make it through this transformational time, we need to elevate our understanding and our tactics for how we go about creating the supportive sisterhoods I believe we need to show up for ourselves and what matters to us... to bring our purpose and potential into form... and to stay, harmonized, healthy and happy along the way! If you and I want to create the world we desire - for ourselves and what matters to us, we need sisterhood. And I mean need. For the last in our 3 part series on The Power of Love, I invited a woman who has dedicated her life's work to sharing and teaching people the science, art and heart of relationship in the realm of friendship - not just in the nice see you on Saturday kind of way, but in the way that stamps out loneliness, isolation, doing it all on your own, and even burnout. Her name is Shasta Nelson, she and I have been friends for over 10 years, and through that time have grown that friendship that stemmed from our common missions and work in the world, into a true sisterhood. And we are both birthing our new books together this year - Shasta's The Business of Friendship, focused on developing more meaningful connection within the workplace and in our careers. This is the first of a series of Catalyzing conversations I will be hosting on Feminine Power Time, where I want invite you into a conversation with me and another powerful, soul centered catalyst for change that can take us all to another level of consciousness and empowerment. Tune in. Pour some tea. I myself had a catalyst breakthrough - more on the podcast: The Power of Sisterhood to Create the World You D: And make sure to check out Shasta's new book: The Business of Friendship: Making the Most of Our Relationships Where We Spend the Most Time.

You know the saying that our relationships are some of our biggest teachers? Truth. And today, as we go through this major time of transformation and change, we can either embrace our relationships as ways to heal, so we can create realities based in wholeness instead of woundedness... or we can keep re-creating the same wounded patterns, acting them out over and over. I vote for embracing our power, and taking a look at what is going on in our relationships right now. To shine the light on what is going on in your heart right now when it comes to your closest relationships - the ones you struggle with, the ones from the past that are still lingering on, the ones that bring you support and joy and want to grow and the ones that you desire to create that don't exist yet. If we want a world, a society, systems and ways of thinking, that are rooted in respect, love, kindness, compassion we have to look within and at our own relationships too. All lasting systemic and social change must be rooted in personal transformation and healing. Which is one of the reasons we have not broken through as a society, yet, through what is clearly so not working. What would be possible if the relationships you had currently came from wholeness vs. your wounds? What if your relationships didn't have to be things you worked on or worked out or figured out? What if you could learn and evolve through love, vs pain and drama? What would be freed up for you if you could let go of any of the lingering resentment or righteousness between you and others? What would be opened up within you if the relationships or kinds of relationships that typically are challenging and painful for you, became sources of learning through joy vs. struggle? You would have a lot more energy, time, clarity, support, and connection. I know this to be true because for 20 years I have embraced relationships as a teacher for me. In this episode of Feminine Power Time, #2 of 3 in the Power of Love Series, we focus on the power of relationship. I invited one of my "teachers" to join us - the man who has taught me how to learn through love vs. pain in my primary partnership. He is my life partner Noah Martin, who is also an amazing relationship adviser and a human that just gets relationship and how to be in it powerfully. In The Power of Sacred Relationship to Heal & Free Yourself and the World we'll dive into: The triangle of transformation - how to think about and see what's happening in your relationships and find the power to both heal what is and has been, and create what you desire. What real partnership is, why you don't want a romantic relationship, and how the mainstream imprints have create unhealthy mindset about relationship How to identify where you might have plugged people into your love cracks, keeping you stuck in cycles of relationships that aren't healthy or happy How to identify your relationship teachers and transform them into vessels for your elevation and liberation How to release energetic ties of blame, shame, anger, resentment without condoning others behaviors (so you are freer). We'll dive deeper into the healing and freeing part of the triangle of transformation today because if we don't go there and get real about what it takes to truly return to hearts that are WHOLE vs full of HOLES, we will just keep recapitulating the same wounds in our lives, that then creates the society and systems we know are not working. Lets use the power of love to do things differently! See you there.

We talk a lot about the power of the mind, how thoughts create our realities, personally and collectively. And while that is true, here's the deeper truth: our heart is our true power center. It's the heart and it's wholeness or it's woundedness, coupled with the cellular imprints within our bodies that inform our thoughts, which drive our actions, which create the realties all around us. Right now at this time on the planet, our hearts and our bodies are being triggered to react from the wound and deeply embedded imprints rooted in fear, shame, blame. Even for those who have been 'doing their inner work' for years, decades... even for people who are educated and trained in mental health, emotional wellness, and spiritual development... WE ARE ALL BEING TRIGGERED, or like i like to say, BEING INVITED TO HEAL our WOUNDED HEARTS SO WE CAN BE FREE TO LEAD AND LIVE FROM OUR WHOLE HEARTS, rooted in wholeness, wellness, aka LOVE. Choosing to embrace and dive into your own healing is an act of sacred activism ... being the change, the healing, you desire to see in the world. Which is why I am creating this next three-part series for us at Feminine Power Time all about tapping into and working with THE POWER OF LOVE ... not in some kind of mamby pamby, meme, fluff, greeting card kind of way, but in the straight up, deep dive, get to the root of what is real and true kind of way, so we can create lives, relationships, families, systems, economies, governments, healthcare, and more rooted in wholeness vs. recapitulating wounds. When we return to wholeness within our own hearts, we will finally begin creating family systems, organizational systems and society systems that cultivate wholeness and wellness by design. There is a beautiful wisdom teaching that says: Put Love at the Center of All of Your Choices. What would be true if you did put love at the center of all of your choices? Not the self sacrificing love, where you don't get what you need. Not the romantic kind of love we see in the movie screens. I mean real LOVE. Pure love? What would become possible of we put LOVE at the center of how we designed our systems and societies and organizations? Not in some fluffy pink cloud kind of way, but real true love, compassion, care, gratitude, courage, passion, heart wisdom, trust? These are big questions that have the power to bring us all through this. But we have to break this down to work with it practically. If you want to change something on the outside - in your life, in the world, in any situation - there is only one place to begin, if you want lasting transformation vs. just another lesson from the Universe you keep getting again and again. Self-love. Tune into this episode of Feminine Power Time, #1 of 3 in the Power of Love Series: The Power of Self Love to Heal & Free Yourself and This World. This will not be fluff or ear candy. Or spiritual platitudes. Trust me. We will dive into, get real and open to wisdom about: What self love really is and why it is relevant to every choice we make big or small What's happening for all of our hearts and bodies, even those who have done lots of inner work, and what's needed now. What you want to know about how your heart works so you can discern between whether you are making choices and thinking thoughts rooted in woundedness or wholeness You'll Gain Self Awareness of what's wanting to heal in your heart now so you can be free to lead yourself, those you love and this world. Be led through 3 Inquiries that will help you create more clarity and self-trust Receive a big dose of love - medicine of self love - so you'll just feel good after! The opportunity is to use the power of self-love to heal the wound, return to wholeness, and then free, we lead & rise. Tune into this session on the power of self love. May it serve to support you to create the life and world you desire. Love is that powerful. with heart Christine **** Go Deeper. Learn More. Summer Programs 1.

There is SO much you could do the rest of the year, so much and so many you could give to, but what really matters to you?? Given the current level of intensity and uncertainty, how can you create stability and sustainability for yourself and those you love and lead financially, emotionally, mentally, physically? How can you work with the transformational energy happening to create more of the reality you desire for yourself and this world? These are some of what we will explore together in this power pause, so you can gain clarity and focus for the next part of this year. One of the smartest things we can do at the mid year point is to pause, reflect, realign and redesign what we are going to focus our life force, resources and time on. This is true for how you run your work life - business, team, organization, career, classroom, etc. And how you run your personal life - wealth, health, home, relationships. For SO many reasons. This is what I call taking a Power Pause. It's a feminine wisdom way practice and a feminine leadership sustainable success principle. It's how we make sure we create realities that are both successful in what we desire to create and cause AND that are sustainable. It's also a best practice for getting out of overwhelm and the feelings that you are never doing enough or have enough. I've been doing Power Pauses myself for a decade and every year at this time I teach mid year power pauses, which I call FLOW for focus your life force on what matters, in many different forms. A virtual program/retreat, in person retreats and for women's leadership groups and teams within organizations. For you beloved Feminine Power Time listener, 4x a year I do these special Power Pause episodes that include a series of inquiries that are like a Power Pause appetizer. They give you a taste of the full process, and enough of a taste to give you some wisdom bytes about what you truly desire this coming year. In this episode, "POWER PAUSE: It's Mid-Year, Time to Reflect & Redirect: 6 Inquiries to Get Focused On What Really Matters to You the Rest of the Year" I will share with you Why especially this year we are personally feeling so much pressure and how to make sure you don't react in ways that distract and drain you. The 3 realms of focus we are being called to consciously work with now in these intense times - focusing on the past to HEAL, the now to SUSTAIN, and the future to CREATE. Why our productivity, health and impact increases when we work with the natural flow of the earth In the Feminine Power Time, I'll take you through 6 inquiries focused in 3 realms of past, present and future - which I also listed below. I invite you to journal on them. Invite a friend or your partner to share about them. And then if you want to really receive the benefit of the mid year Power Pause, take the online version, you can do at your own pace. INQUIRIES: 1. HEAL: What inside of you is calling for a deeper healing and wholeness, so you can be more free to create the reality and world you desire? 2. HEAL: What in your relationships is calling to be released or redesigned, to free up emotional and mental space and open up your capacity to receive the support, connection you desire? 3. SUSTAIN: What do you need in place for your physical body to be strong, sustained and healthy? What practices / rituals are in place you preserve, keep doing? What new ones do you need? 4. SUSTAIN. In your work, what is already in place that you can maintain and preserve, and in doing so will create more stability and sustainability for you? You can receive from the energy you've already created? 5. SUSTAIN: In your relationships, what and who could you give life force and energy to this next half of the year, that would support, nurture and sustain you? 6. CREATE: What are you being called to create - bring into form, call, cause - for yourself or the world? How and on what do you choose to use your co-creative power this second half of the year.

We often hear things like choose love over fear. Or that love is the only thing that is real. Or that we have the power within us to transform fear into love. But what does that really mean? And how does that apply to the massive transformation we are in collectively and personally right now, in a way that is practical? Knowing how fear and love work within you, and how they can be used and show up within our collective social situations is essential at this time. Fear can be used to manipulate, trigger, create fields of more fear in ways we don't even see... unless we know what to look for. We can react to fear, vs. respond from love because of the primal imprints rooted in scarcity and fear that we don't even know are within us... unless we know what to look for. Most of us didn't get a Fear and Love 101, 201, 301 class in school. And with the amount of fear that is being activated, we could all use an uplevel of our consciousness to see the fear being triggered within us, and the fear being used to control, distract, and disconnect us from truth, love and freedom. Within each of us lies the super power we need at this time to use the transformation happening to do what is called "alchemize and transmute" lower vibrations, to elevate and create higher vibrations, that have the power to lead us to healing, freeing and wholeness. That's what we will do in today's session #3 of 3 in the Sacred Transformation Series: Let's Talk About the Power of Fear and Love, and How to Work with Both, Wisely. We can use this energy to heal, free, and create new realities - for ourselves, others and this world - but not if we aren't wise about the energies within us, and around us, and what we are consciously or unconsciously contributing too. Here are some wisdom bytes to chew on and some ways to make what I shared in the podcast real, as awareness practices: 1. Where there is no fear, there is no anger, no anxiety, and no absoluteness. 2. Become more aware of the root primal fears that have been imprinted into your body/mind/heart/spirit - through experiences you have had, and through the collective imprinting of this overculture. Fear of death, not feeling safe, not having enough, not being enough, etc. 3. Your body is like a broadcasting station that can emit and run frequency fear or love. Know the signs of both.Become more aware of when you respond from anger, anxiety and absolutes - that is fear. 4. Fear has many shades as does Love, but in the English language we only have one word for love. Expand your understanding of Love = compassion, tenderness, patience, understanding, affection, fierce truth from the heart, kindness, connection and more. 5. Become more aware of the interactions, situations, and 'fields' you are in, that cause you or others to react in anger, anxiety or absoluteness (it has to be this way, you have to do it this way). 6. Be conscious how you participate - don't engage in activity that adds to the frenzy, froth, fragmentation or reactivity. See it, even have compassion for it, just don't waste your chi on it. 7. To participate - ELEVATE and CREATE a deeper, expansive, love-centered conversation that seeks understanding and a higher consciousness. Or to participate ILLUMINATE the HATE, speaking from your fierce heart. 8. Take care of your heart - feed it love, so it can be stronger in it's frequency, so you like a Phoenix Rising you can transmute and alchemize denser emotions through love into a higher reality for yourself and others. I'll share some ways in the podcast. 9. Open your WISE EYES to see how people and systems may be using fear to create a swirl or field of mass consciousness that feeds on fear and keeps people stuck in their lower minds. Say NO to letting that kind of energy be okay with you, for you, or for those you love and lead. So much to share, which is why in addition to this podcast series on Feminine Power Time, on July 5th, I am taking part in the Truth and Reconciliation Weekend, offering a Sacred Transformation: Creating a Path of Stability and Sustainability As We Shift.

The second in a 3 part series I titled SACRED TRANSFORMATION to guide us through these intense, changing, disruptive, heart-opening, consciousness awakening times ... so we can walk through this threshold of transformation in a way that leads us to a new way of living, leading, relating, succeeding that truly has the best interests of all life at the core... and so we have the energy and keep the momentum moving to stand what's no longer working, heal what needs healing, and have the energy to create the new way. Sacred transformation (which I defined deeply in part 1) is: being devoted and dedicated to change (no turning back), secured against violation and violence, regarded in reverance and respect, rooted in the intention of creating wholeness. Sacred transformation is challenging, and it's blessed, held by grace as we move through. In part 2 of this Feminine Power Time we dive into how we create significant and sustainable change so we don't burn out, numb out or let fear win. A few highlights: We'll use the four stages of personal and social transformation to guide us to see where we are, where we've been, where we are going and what's needed. The four stages of transformation. Awareness, Reflection, Change in the Moment and Integration, which leads us to elevation. The power of NO MORE! and #notonmywatch to stand individually and collectively for what we will no longer tolerate or accept in the 4 realms we are experiencing change: societial, systemic, generational and self. The second step we cannot bypass - Reflection. Why we must pause to reflect, listen and look around - not seek information but find and feel true compassion. If we don't acknowledge what is, and accept it, we cant be free of it ... even if our brains know it's not okay. The power of fierce compassion and how to be with the suffering of others and this world, to break open the power and wisdom in your heart, in a way that doesn't short circuit you or cause you to feel like you have to take it all on. The dangers we need to be aware of that can disrupt the power of sacred transformation - What keeps us from being able to eradicate or change these things that we know are not okay - and how to stay awake to the forces that want to create separation and polarization and fear and confusion. How to keep yourself emotionally sustained and in your heart - I'll share the two parts of our human and soul heart, and how to take care of both of yours. Pace yourself to sustain yourself. The waves of changes and catalysts are not stopping. There are a LOT of NO MORES! we need to change in this world. I'll share a way to think about this in cycles, and a wake up call to notice how the systems will try to get you riled up and full of rage to burn you out. Stay focused on your part, without guilt or pressure to 'do more' - We each have a personal transformation that's being required of us now. And we each have a part to play in the elevation of this world. We need to call BullS**T on the storyline we are not doing enough... where we create toxic unsustainable pressure... and instead stay PRESENT and listening for what our part is to take action on. We start this conversation this week. And dive into more next week. I will end us with a blessing, from the tree of life, the tree of wisdom, which was written by my dear soul sister Shiloh Sophia McCloud whose birthday is today. Tune in. May this ignite your fierce heart to see and embrace the power you have AND give you permission to do what you need to stay sustained through this shift. We NEED your light and love. Don't burn out that light. It's going to be a journey over years, not months, to destruct, preserve and create. with great heart Christine

We are in the midst of major transformation and change that is causing chaos, disruption, fear, rage and all kinds of emotions and situations that are hard to be with and hard to know what to do with ... AND we are also experiencing a time of great awakening, voices speaking up and out, people standing together, and the possibility of maybe, finally, breaking through to a different way to be and live in this world.. change that has been a long time coming. But...transformation can be a very dangerous journey... like a fire out of control, like a windstorm that takes a fire from a needed burn to a reckless fire that burns up everything in its path. Which is why we need some wisdom, perspective and practices for how to go through this massive transformation in a way that doesn't burn us out, create harming destruction, or cause us to get swirled up in all the chaos and lose our way. So... here's what we are going to do - create stability and sanity within the chaos and change for you by : First, get some perspective on the 4 levels of transformation that are happening - social, systemic, generational and self. So we can work with them, vs. be overwhelmed by them. Including how to see how generational and systemic transformation may be happening within you. Second, consider what it would be like to approach and embrace what we are experiencing personally and collectively as "Sacred Transformation"... Sacred means: devoted or dedicated to, secured against violence and violation, regarded with reverence and respect. Sacred transformation leads to wholeness. In sacred transformation, while the journey may be intense, challenging, and will certainly break apart and through the illusions, imprints and systems that bind vs. free us ... sacred transformation is blessed. So we move through the fire of transformation with grace. Third, we'll invoke some super power wisdom using the teachings of the 4 elements to see how to work with rage, blame, judgement, guilt, shame, fear, over-responsibility, paralysis in a way that fosters sacred transformation... So you can feel stable and clear minded and emotionally balanced (sane) on the inside ... and be an instrument for loving truth, right action and stay centered within. Lastly, we'll take this directly into 2 specific structures I think we all need right now ... Decompressing daily and weekly (the daily downshift and weekly system reset). Self awareness of your mind/body/heart/spirit - what's transforming for you and triggering you personally... what do you need to care for your core ... what are you letting into to your field, that is adding to the fire in destructive ways? Exhale. This transformation is a long time coming. We were born for this time. There is wisdom and tools to support us through. Be aware of the input you are letting in to your field. Ground. Root. Decompress your system. Look around for evidence of human-KIND and divine support. Remember you have the power of sacred transformation within you. There is a path, and we are on it. We are the ones. This is the first in a 3 part series on Sacred Transformation in Feminine Power Time. Come back next week for the next part.

How Do We Go From Here? Permission to Replenish, Reset and Receive. Hello dear ones... I sat down this morning to tune into what we really needed these next few weeks because whew! it has been a very intense several weeks. And I wanted to set us all up for the reset I am feeling our bodies, hearts, minds and spirits really need. Not to disconnect. Not to go back to normal. But to just take a BREATH. Our nervous systems have been at defcon 5. We need a downshift that gives us some space. So consider this a permission slip to reset, tend to your weary heart ... and also look ahead to how to approach these next few weeks and months. After an intense and powerful day in sisterhood and circle with women who are choosing to show up for co creating the new world, but are also tired and need a break, I taped this for you this evening before I head into my weekly Sabbath practice. Where I just tune into being present with my surrounding as is - no media or electronics. Tune in. It's deep and practical. See you there. With great heart, Christine *** Coming up - RSVP to get the invitation to 1.

What's Your Life Really About? Choosing What to Center Your Life Around Next. #4 of 4 in the Harmonize to Rise Series on Feminine Power Time with Christine Arylo. Hello dear ones... I have an inquiry for you that I don't want you to answer, but I want you to consider, to chew on, to explore, to open your eyes to.... What have you been constellating your life around? What do you desire to constellate your life around going forward? This is what we call a wisdom inquiry that has the power to break you through to expanded levels of self awareness and possibility. It gets you tuned into what is really true and right for you now ... it taps you into your power to be a co-creator in your life design and reality ... it empowers you to see how the choices you are making are creating the reality that you've been stuck in or living ... it catalyzes you out of where you are stuck and what no longer serves so you can be free to create what it is you truly need, desire and are here to experience. As we walk through this global catalyst.... we don't want to go back to normal or keep assimilating into ways of working, living and relating that are not working for us. Wake up your wise woman eyes. Reopen your eyes that see wonder and possibility beyond the mind. Let your wild woman whose not bound by limitations or rules free. Feel your power. Expand your consciousness. This week we explore the power of being conscious about what is at the center of your life - and how you can use this inquiry and the framework I share to see what's not working for you any longer and find your power to create something different. This framework works for the self, for our family/relationships, and our society. What you choose consciously or unconsciously as the centerpoint of your life is what drives your choices, decisions about home, money, career, relationships, everything. When you are the leader of your life - you consciously choose to shift this over the course of your life time. And when you do, you are so much more empowered to create a reality that supports and sustains you. And that creates the reality that gives you peace, harmony inside. It's deep and practical. See you there. With great heart, Christine *** Coming up - RSVP to get the invitation to 1. FLOW the Mid Year Power Pause - www.flowpowerpause.com Starts June 14th - space to really tune into what is right and true for you moving forward. To create a path for the year ahead. 2.

What's Not Sustainable Any Longer? Finding Our Power to Create the World We Want to Live in. #3 of 4 in the Harmonize to Rise Series on Feminine Power Time with Christine Arylo. Hello dear ones... I have been deep in book edits but was SOOO looking forward to this conversation with you that I could not wait one more week to have it! So my notes this week are short. Basically, tune in. As we move into this next phase of our global wake up catalyst shift there's an inquiry essential for us to be in - so we don't miss the possibility and gift of this experience, so we do step into our power to do things differently and create the world we want to live in. I'm sending you much love from the Puget Sound where the eagles and crows were swooping through the skies after I completed this session. Interesting given the crow is the symbol of the wise woman, and the eagle a symbol for the power of the current power systems (although it means much more than that!) I think they were dancing.... as we are all finding a new way.... Don't go back to normal. Wake up your wise woman eyes. Feel your power. Expand your consciousness. Next week, we explore more. This week i have an inquiry to bring into all parts of your life.. "What is no longer sustainable? For yourself. in relationship. In work. in wealth and health? And for the planet? for your family? for the communities you are in? See you there. With great heart, Christine *** p.s Remember since you are here with me and we are connected, you receive access to the Stay Harmonized Sessions, a love offering for my community .... www.StayHarmonized.com p.p.s I extended the 40 Day Burnout to Balance Practice through May - www.burnouttobalance.com More to come on the summer including the June Flow Power Pause.

Hello Dear One ... Every May I love to re-listen to and re-share this episode on MOTHER LOVE (which is so much more than we think it is.) So many of us are feeling stretched - being called to make changes, expansions, trust. In times like you need more "mother love" - it's so powerful! MOTHER LOVE does not just come from your birth mother. And since most of us aren't taught what that is or how to source it, I am replaying this Feminine Power Time. If you've never heard it, tune in. If you have, re-listen this is medicine and a message that will bring clarity, confidence and courage to you at this time.... Next week we will resume our Harmonize and Rise Series with session #3, where we dive into the ways of working and living in our world that are no longer working for you... so instead of falling back into normal, you rise in a reality that supports, and sustains you. For now, soak in the Mother Love. Much love to you xoxo Christine "THERE IS A GREAT MOTHER LOVE AVAILABLE THAT CAN ACT AS THE SAFE AND SOFT HARBOR YOU NEED TO STAND STRONG + FEEL SUPPORTED. IT WILL HOLD YOU, SOOTHE YOU, AND GIVE YOU UNSTOPPABLE COURAGE." When you read the words 'mother love' you likely go right to thinking about the mother who gave birth to you or the mother who raised you. And while that mother definitely has a role to play in our lives, she cannot be our only source of "mother love." Mother love is... a specific kind of love that every human being needs – we don't outgrow the need for it, although we sadly forget how much we do need it. Mother love is… the deep, all-embracing, all-accepting, nourishing, nurturing, warm, safe, supportive love that soothes the places inside our hearts that feel scared and lonely. Mother love is… the strong love that we can fall into when we are stressed, stretched, uncertain, and feeling like we just can't handle what's happening in our life. Sourcing Mother Love is not something most of us were taught how to do. In this Feminine Power Time with Christine Arylo: Mother Love: The Feminine Love That Will Hold You Through Transition: Reveal why one mother cannot be our only source of love – and how embracing this can wipe out all kinds of baggage and free you to receive the support, nurturing, courage, acceptance, patience, understanding and compassion Define Mother Love – this is SO much more than the story or situation between you and your birth mother. Even if you had the greatest mother growing up, your need for more Mother Love doesn't end. See how the lack of Mother Love is often at the root of things like loneliness, feeling like you don't belong, fear, not feeling like you have enough, are enough, not being cared for, not feeling supported – these patterns will keep showing up if you don't get to the root Explore the powerful 3 Sources of Mother Love that are here for all of us - there is SO much of this support here for us beyond what we have been taught exists. Learn simple practices you can do to invite this powerful, potent, feminine love into your heart and life – including the Great Mother Bath To dive deeper into the feminine connection with Christine Arylo, attend one of her virtual or in person Feminine Wisdom Sessions or Retreats - go here for more details www.ChristineArylo.com Or join Christine for The Feminine Wisdom Way - it opens again in June with the mid year power pause - go to - www.FeminineWisdomWay.com

Have you been feeling any of the emotional waves? In yourself, where emotions like anxiety flutter or flow through your heart? Or emotions like frustration and anger come welling and firing up and out? How about in others? Noticed or picked up other people's fear, frustration or feelings and not known what to do with it? Or found yourself feeling deep grief where you just have to sit down and cry or go to sleep - that's you falling into the waves of the collective emotions. In the reality that we are moving through you should expect your emotions to rise up ... you just don't want to let them run you. You should expect other people's energy to try to stir up and muck up your own .... but you don't want to bite at the invitation, or get your emotional field meshed up with theirs. And you should expect you are going to have days, hours where it's all just too much, and you need to release the energy of the collective your feeling. But how to you BE with your emotions, without being run by them? How do you be present with others without taking on their stuff? How do you stay informed without being infected, by the ENERGY of fear that is the bigger danger that can take hold? How can you work with this energy to support your personal transformation and elevation? That's what we will dive into in this episode of Feminine Power Time, 122: Riding the Emotional Waves: How to Work with Your Feeling to Reveal Wisdom, Power and Healing, #2 of 4 in our Harmonize to Rise Series. This global catalyst that is affecting every human on the planet isn't something to get over, or wait out ... it is a powerful force you and I can work with, if you wake up to where your power is, where your fear is (YOUR HEART)... and then take the steps to be with what's within you... so you can heal it, release what you no longer need (harmonize) ... and then rise up and through the possibility at catalyst of this magnitude offers us. During intense times in which are emotions can get stirred up like big wave, you want to have the self awareness and skills to stay on your surfboard, know when to stand and when to just lay down, and what to do when you fall off your center and into the emotional swirl so you can get back on. Some of what we'll dive into today: What love cracks and overculture imprints may be unconsciously driving your emotions and thoughts Is your mind or your heart your power center? Which do you know better and trust? Discern between YOUR emotions and the emotions of others or the collective - so you only work with yours Don't miss this opportunity to release and heal the heart and soul parts within yourself that have kept you small, striving, driving, trying to succeed in the overculture, martrying yourself or too busy to realize you aren't living in alignment And then embrace your power GO DEEPER and find the wisdom your heart and body have for you. Then instead of setting up camp in a new normal that is only 5% better or running back to all the ways your life wasn't working in harmony before... you will have insight and super power to expand beyond what your mind can see, to step into the reality your heart and soul knows is possible. See you there! Note the fierce feminine came flowing through at the end ... so make sure to listen all the way through. With great heart, Christine **** To Go Deeper ... 1.

Harmonize. To get yourself aligned on the inside so that the choices you make and the way you show up in your day to day come from the deeper truth and knowing within you. Harmonize. To choose to connect with your higher Self - your Wise Woman/Man/Being" - who knows how to walk through any threshold (change) because it is deeply attuned to Grace, the Divine, Expanded Possibility. I've been thinking of you all! Waiting for the words to come about what is needed to support us all to stay awake, aware, wise and clear. As we walk through what is called a "threshold crossing", a catalyst, a challenge beckoning us to change, as individuals and a society, culture and world, with lots of uncertainty ... what is needed is for each of us to stay awake, be wise, stay harmonized ... so together we can rise. This Feminine Power Time, 121: Harmonize to Rise: Wake Up to Your Wise Self and Let Her Lead, is #1 of 4 in the series on Crossing Over to a New World, not a New Normal. What we are experiencing in the world right now is like one of those major catalysts that happen in a life that gives you both the challenge and the grace to make significant shifts, quantum leaps ... The kind that can propel us into a world personally and collectively that can create more harmony, connection and wholeness vs. so much of what we've been tolerating or assimilating into for a long time. It is a challenging intense time... we need to be aware and with it, and we also don't want to miss the expansion and possibility here for us by running to find a new normal. Today, we start by diving into our own inner worlds - connecting to that deep wisdom within you ... to support you to get harmonized on the inside, so as you walk through this catalyst you can work with the energy and reality to expand and rise into what your heart and soul is oh so ready for. Tune in .... let's talk about how to stay present to what is... how to RESET your rhythm and patterns to support and sustain you through this threshold... how to get clear and real about what is calling for you to RELEASE so you can RISE... and tap deep into your wisdom self to reveal what you need to REMEMBER to help you walk through this threshold crossing to trust the process, walk step by step and rise into what is next. Wherever this finds you today, I am sending you much LOVE! Stay awake. Be wise. Stay harmonized. Together we rise. Christine **** For More Practices for Staying Harmonized, Centered and Clear 1.

Every year at the start of the year and as the quarter turns I do a special Feminine Power Time focused on spiritual insight and feminine wisdom for the intensity we are facing personally and globally at the time. This year, the intensity I think we can agree just wratched up about 25 or 2500 degrees. We are in midst of a global, social, and personal catalyst. Our minds want to make sense, make sure we are safe, know what will happen, and search for information. Our minds are not the tool we need at this time. Because this isn't about figuring stuff out - it's about being with what is... pulling our heads above the chaos to see a greater truth and pattern ... while also creating stability for our human hearts. This isn't the time to react and pivot ... it's the time to plant and ground and get clear about what you need to stabilize yourself and what and who you care for. To set the structures so you can stay harmonized or get re-harmonized when you get tweaked out, twisted up, or turned around (which you will). What's needed now is the deeper spiritual wisdom and mystical wisdom that we can use practically at this time to support us to strengthen our capacity to meet the intensity... and instead of holding on to the old or giving away our power to the systems or running back to try and establish normal we RISE UP and connect to a deeper purer wisdom that seeks to create new realities. But first we stabilize and harmonize ourselves so we can rise. And that is not just about our mind and immune systems. Hearts, nervous systems and magnetic fields too. I've been waiting to do this Feminine Power Time until I was clear on what spiritual wisdom and insight wanted to come through... I've been listening to what is real, what it needed and what our human hearts need. I sat Saturday morning with coffee in my A CUP OF LOVE mug, beeswax candle lit, and this is what came streaming through. May this serve to support you as we walk through this threshold. See you there. Much love, Christine Wisdom Inquiries 1. How can I stabilize myself, and who and what I care for? (Consider this for the next one or two months). 2. What are the practices that I do as my bookend practice to harmonize my mind, body, heart and magnetic field? What practices do I have to re-harmonize myself when I get tweaked out, turned around or twisted up? 3. What places do I have to connect that support my energy and harmonize me? What places am I connecting that drain me? 4. What is Wisdom trying to show me? What inquiries are arising with a new set of eyes tuned into the mystical and material?

In the midst of intensity and uncertainty it can seem crazy to 'pause' ... but it's exactly what wise, sane, empowered people do. It is what gives us the power to see what is real. what is needed. and how to best focus our life force and resources so we are sustained on all levels. Today, I share with you and walk you through a POWER PAUSE - a practice I do and take others through every quarter turn of the year, specifically on the Equinoxes and the Solstices. I will tell you more about why in the podcast. A Power Pause in normal times is a leadership best practice - for leading your life, your organization, your business, your team, your health and wealth, everything. It's time to pause and REFLECT to see all that you have already done and acknowledge it, so you can SEE and feel that you are making a difference and things are happening. Otherwise you always feel like you aren't doing enough. RE-HARMONIZE & RESET - to reset where things feel out of whack or imbalanced, so you can stop any energy or resource leaks, to make sure you have what you need to be Sustained emotionally, physicallly, financially and relationally. REFOCUS - like we talked about last week, in times of uncertainty you want to invoke your power to create and move into creative action. A power pause helps you do that in a shorter time span that feels manageable vs overwhelming. In Intense times, I don't know how to stay focused, centered and sustained without them. Good thing we don't have to. Join me for this episode of Feminine Power Time: POWER PAUSE: Re-set,& Refocus - #3 of 3 of practices for staying centered in chaotic times. I'll share more about this practice and how to use it to support yourself. Also we'll talk about the bigger Power Pause that's happening globally and a perspective on how to be with what is happening, in a way you are prepared and wise vs. panicked. And how to break down and work with 'time spans' to help you focus in more manageable spans so you can focus on what matters. I'll lead you through a set of Power Pause inquiries we use specifically during the Equinoxes that will help you re-set and re-focus between now and May 1st or June 21st - Solstice - depending on what you choose. I included the inquiries below. Wherever this finds you today love, know that these structures and practices are what hold, center and guide you through any storm. Slow down. Press pause. Let's tune into your deeper knowing and the Universe's guidance. with heart Christine p.s. If you missed the Grace Under Pressure Feminine Wisdom Session: Staying Clear, Calm and Centered in Chaotic Times, you can still listen or watch it - www.FeminineWisdomSession.com Wisdom Inquiries Choose your time span - between now and May 1st (about 7 weeks, 40 days, or the super power day of Beltane), or June 21st Solstice (half way point of the year). Set the space and get clear these, and then focus here: 1. What do I need to be sustained - physically, emotionally, relationally? 2. What is imbalanced or out of harmony in my life? Or desiring more attention now? Physical foundation of home, health, wealth, practice? Relationships professional or personal? In career or work? 3. To reset and re-harmonize these imbalances or desires, what needs to be released? or re-designed? 4. Where is my life force being called to focus and flow between now and the time span I chose ? In my physical foundation of home/health/wealth/practice? In my relationships? In my work/career? Action: Focus giving your life force where the flow guides you (give here) Choose 3 imbalances and re-harmonize them between now and the end of this time span (re-set here) Claim what you need to be sustained and take the action needed to receive it (recieve here)

There is no question that there is a lot of fear flying around out there... that is causing even the most wise and centered of us to question what is real? What should I do? What the heck is going on in the world? How do I stay safe and well? But also not fall victim to the fear machine that stirs up panic? In this episode of Feminine Power Time we will dive into the question - What do you do with the fear? How do you clear the fear so you can see what is real? What information do you trust? What are the wise actions to respond to whatever is happening in the world. Today it's a virus. A few months ago it was any number of natural disasters. And there will be more. These are the times we are living in. And ... while fear will rise up. We do not have to react from fear. We do not have to make our decisions around fear. We do need to be awake, aware, wise and safe ... able to discern. This Feminine Power Time is #2 of 3 in our Grace Under Pressure series: Superpowers for staying centered, calm and clear in a chaotic world. Join me as we dive into what I call Fear-shifting... including What not to do ... so you don't feed the fear, your own or the worlds How to look at fear differently, so you know what to do with it... yours, other peoples or the worlds, so you gain the power to calm yourself and ground yourself to stay centered, and as result empower others to do the same. Three powerful wisdom inquiries you can use in the moment to find the truth and your truth .. the practice of wisdom inquiries is So powerful. A grounding and rooting meditation practice that is about 3 minutes only, you can do it in the morning, or whenever the fear swirls up How to tell if the fear of everything going on in the world is confusing your judgement or amplifying your own internal fears - and what to do with the fear, to shift yourself into wisdom and truth. Fear-shifting is a practice. There are tools. Come and learn them. Plus I'll invite you to open up your eyes to SEE what you might not be seeing about what is happening in the world today. Question everything is what the elders say at this time. Let's make sure you have the right questions and practices to lead to wisdom. See you there xo Christine p.s.

The yogic wisdom is clear -how you end your day is how you start your next day. Yet we make choices in the last few hours before we go to sleep that sabotage our ability to replenish. We can blame work, other people, money, etc.for our stress but the truth is you and I have a lot of power to reduce our stress and increase our clarity and feelings of calm by the choices we make in the last two hours of our day. This is the practice of DOWNSHIFTING - the rhythm and routines and actions you take from the hours of 4pm to you go to sleep. My question for you is .... what choices are you making that are draining you? what choices are sustaining you? Especially in the last two hours of your evening which is where we will focus our conversation at in this Feminine Power Time: Downshifting: Superpower Practice for Staying Centered in Chaotic Times, the first in our 3 part Grace Under Pressure Series where we dive into: How do you stay centered, calm and clear in a chaotic world?? The practice of BOOKENDING your days. - Where your power lies to stay outside the swirl by how you start and end The practice of DOWNSHIFTING The sabotaging ways you may be downshifting including the 'second shift' and 'the wine down' Simple shifts you can make in the last hour before you go to bed that will have a significant impact on your calm, clarity and centeredness We'll get real and practical about how to use downshifting to get the replenishment you need, and replace sabotaging evening habits with new ones that support you. What you put into your body, mind, psychic field goes to bed with you - how about that! When you mimic mother natures rhythm, your rhythm comes into harmony Downshifting is not something additional you do, it is how you do what you are already doing I LOVE this practice and every year before the equinoxes, i up my commitment and awareness of it.

Take care of your heart. I just had to do this Feminine Power Time for us - I know it sounds soft, or oh yeah of course. But what I have to share is so much more than some nice self care message. So tune in. Our hearts are our power centers. Your heart much more than your mind drives your actions, thoughts and choices. You mind responds to the feelings and needs in your heart, but how many of us know how to truly communicate, connect and stay true to our hearts. Even if you do, the world is crazy, so we need access to practices and structures that keep our hearts stable and sustained, so we can stay clear, confident, calm and courageous. In this Feminine Power Time #116: Take Care of Your Heart - Self Love Practices for Staying Centered, Calm and Connected, I'll take you on a exploration of these three realms : Self Love Sisterhood Self Sustainability Including a practice for each you can put into your life for each one. These three things - self love, sisterhood, self sustainability are at the core of our capacity to stay clear, calm and centered within a chaotic world. Come. Lets get that heart of yours harmonized! xo Christine p.s. I made a request, from that place of sisterhood to Share Feminine Power Time, Rate and Review it. Would super appreciate!

During the week of Self Love Day Feb 13th I taped the 3rd of our 3 part series on Powerful Questions to ask ourselves as we make choices for the year ahead ... so we can stay centered, calm and clear in these intense times. This final episode poses an inquiry that will take you into the heart of what YOU need to be sustained - physically, mentally, emotionally and materially ... a question that if we don't pause to consider we inevitably will end up stretching ourselves way too thin, giving too much, without receiving what we need. The word sustained is a powerful word I invite you to take into your heart and life ... the root means 'to hold'... when you are SUSTAINED, you feel HELD... so you are so much more able to actualize your dreams, desires, projects, purpose ... when you are SUSTAINED, the strong foundation under and around and within you fuels the courage you need to stay clear and centered. When are not SUSTAINED ... not receiving the financial flow you need... not having the home you need... not having the supportive relationships you need... when you feel you are giving so much more than you are receiving in return... your body, mind and heart get wobbly, tired, exhausted and eventually burned out or sick. SO LETS NOT DO THIS YEAR in a way you sacrifice yourself.

It is way too easy to overgive and overcompensate in our work and relationships and then get overwhelmed and distracted, and diminish our impact, and worse, deplete ourselves. Especially in these intense and changing times. Which is why we are doing this series in Feminine Power Time on powerful inquiries to ask yourself for 2020 beyond, so you can stay centered, calm and clear... focused on what matters. This specific inquiry is at the root of feminine leadership - it's all about taking a stand for your self-sustainability and for giving and receiving in harmony in our work and relationships. It's also about feminine power and making a greater impact in your work and within the lives of those you love and lead. When you know your part in your work you not only become more effective, you affect greater, lasting change. When you know your part in your relationships, you stop over giving and feeling like you have to do it all or you are failing at doing it all. You embrace that you are one person in a constellation of people and support that collectively cares for others. WOW the spaciousness and lack of guilt that happens when you really embrace this. This is also about purpose - when you can name your part to play in this bigger world, you too stop feeling like you are not enough or not doing enough because you see how you are making a difference in what is yours to do. #StayFocusedOnYourPart - that's the self-sustainability stand. As leaders, we apply this stand to three realms of our lives - our work, our relationships and our physical foundation of health/wealth/home In this session, I'll share more about what staying focused on your part means - and how it's essential to doing meaningful work, growing your work or business, not taking on too much, and gaining the power to say NO I can't without guilt why we have such a hard time not taking it all on whether it's at work or in our relationships how to get an upgrade in who you work for so you can stop feeling so pressured and start receiving the support you need... and trust that others will too honing in on your super powers so you can get clear on your part in the world, in your work and in your relationships. At the end of the session, I'll walk you through a personal meditation and visualization to help you get clear on what your part is and what you part is not in the 3 realms of your whole life .... and then take a stand to stay focused on your part this year This is preventative burnout and overwhelm care. It's self empowerment. It's feminine leadership. It's wise. I look forward to diving in with you! If you missed Powerful Inquiry #1 - What is Holding Me? from last episode, make sure to tune in. And stay tuned next week for #3 inquiry. big heart Christine ****** Mark Your Calendars - Save the Date - and Upcoming Programs Self Love Day Circle - Feb 13th - Beyond Self Care: Taking a Stand for Self Sustainability A Year of Self Love - Embodying Self Love - Opens Feb 13th.

Today I invite you to consider this powerful inquiry - one you have not likely asked yourself before: What is Holding Me? I know it sound esoteric, vast, vague, maybe even irrelevant to your day to day reality. But trust me, if you want to stay centered, calm, clear in this chaotic world, you want to know. Feeling held is the tap root of your courage to step out, make changes, and speak up. When you feel held fear cannot derail you. When you feel held you are so clear within yourself that confusion, doubt, and anxiety melt away. But what does feeling held mean? And what is holding you, really, as you step into 2020 and beyond? And what do you need to know to make sure that just as a tree is held by its roots in the ground, and the network of other trees, that you have what you need to weather the storms that are surely ahead? One of my super powers is creating powerful inquiries that open up portals to deeper wisdom within us, questions that expand what's possibility and that shift our perspective so we can do things differently. As we face 2020 and beyond, and I've been in my EMERGE Visioning and Intention Setting process, powerful inquiries that have been blowing my mind and opening up my imagination and intuition have been popping up like popcorn! I've been having deep conversations with friends about these and it's been altering how I choose to focus my life force in 2020. Giving me clarity. So... In this Feminine Power Time: What is Holding You? #1 of 3 in a series I'm calling Powerful Questions to Ask Yourself for 2020 and Beyond to Stay Centered, Calm, and Clear in Intense Changing Times we will dive into this inquiry together. Making powerful inquiries is one of the feminine wisdom way tools we use to gain access to our own intuition and to the imaginal field of possibility, and to Divine guidance. So no bullet points for you to read here. Just tune in. I promise it will be practical and relevant, and perhaps shape your choices and focuses in ways that are not only enlightening but truly empowering. Just as a tree must be held to grow strong, so you must be too. For you who likely holds so much for others, what is holding you? How do you cultivate the inner knowing that you are held? And how does that change everything? With great heart, Christine ******* Invitation Feminine Wisdom Way 2020 - Live, Lead and Succeed the Way Women Work Best. Circle closes on Jan 19th. Join us.

Every year in January I wait to do this special Feminine Power Time session until the timing feels just right. This year, it was exactly on the first full moon of the year, a wolf moon, eclipse just as the sun was setting on the Puget Sound across from my studio window. I've been thinking of you all for weeks and what would emerge to be shared on the yearly "Feminine Wisdom for The Year Ahead" episode. After weeks of being in my own reflection and visioning process, watching what's happening in the world, deepening in my own practice and listening for guidance from Wisdom with a capital W, once again, a series of 'wisdom bytes' flowed out. Tune in for this year's Feminine Wisdom for the Year Ahead - 202-, a yearly occurrence here at Feminine Power Time. It's not about fortune telling, it's about reading the signs all around us, feeling the knowings within us, and then being WISE about what is happening in the world and how we desire and choose to show up. Feminine wisdom teaches us to prepare for the intensity, uncertainty, transformation and change that is just part of how the world is operating right now. Not to brace yourself for it, but to embrace it, pace yourself through it and cultivate the vitality, resilience and wisdom you'll need to stay elevated above the fray and the chaos. Tune in with me, Christine Arylo, feminine leadership advisor and women's leadership and empowerment teacher, as we dive in. See you there! Christine Wisdom Inquiries 1. Where are you not showing up in your full presence? Where are you? 2 What is your soul stretch in 2020? 3. Where are you separating or isolating instead of connecting and including? 4. What support do you need to 'do' what you desire, need to, or are being asked to in 2020? 5. How are you cultivating sisterhood? What else do you need? 6. What are your practices for staying centered and slowing down? Daily? Weekly? Monthly? Yearly? Programs and Classes 1. Different Way to Dream - www.femininewisdomsession.com 2. Feminine Wisdom Way - Vision, Plan, Focus and Grow the Way Women Work Best - www.femininewisdomway.com

There is a misunderstanding in our culture about visioning, dreaming and goals setting. The mainstream approach is rooted in the go, go , go, work hard, stay busy culture we've been trained to operate in. So we try to do too much, push too hard, and exhaust ourselves. The more spiritual approach is also laden with big misunderstandings about manifesting, the law of attraction, and vision boards that lead to self criticism & stress later in the year. There is a different way. One that gives you access to deeper Wisdom that fuels & focuses your desires personally & professionally. A way that gives you.... Space. Releasing the pressure to have your year figured out by Jan 15th. Insight. Into how to achieve in your work, without sacrificing your relationships or personal wellness. Focus + Fluidity. So you operate in the flow vs. pushing, striving, and stretching yourself past capacity. Clarity. On where to focus life force and resources in ways that sustain you - so you put the right amount of energy and time to projects, people and dreams vs. trying to do it all right now. This is the way we naturally work best as women and humans... when we stop following the models of success and productivity set up for us, and start following our deep innate feminine wisdom. In this special SALON episode: A Different Way to Dream and Achieve, I'll share with you a different approach for how to vision, focus and plan your year. So you have the wisdom, the practices, the processes for creating realities that sustain you and that are in alignment for who you are and what you truly desire. It's taken me over a decade of living this way, after studying the mainstream business world and success models and then the more spiritual and personal growth models, to find this path. Tune in! Big heart Christine p.s. The Salon episodes are taken from the live Feminine Wisdom Sessions I do live throughout the year. I share the with you on the podcast so you can receive the wisdom. And you can also receive the video version. p.p.s If you would like to see and receive the video version of this session, go to www.FeminineWisdomSession.com Also ... if you'd love support, structure and sisterhood to work, lead and live from your feminine wisdom and power, including our EMERGE 2020 Visioning and Intention Setting process, learn more at www.FeminineWisdomWay.com

What does it mean to be connected to Spirit? How do you trust that the Universe really has your back? How do you create a real, embodied relationship with the Divine, one that you can feel and work with in your daily life? Whatever you call this force or don't, in these intense times, if we want to stay clear, calm, on our soul's path, able to meet the challenges and expand in the possibilities, we need a personal, embodied relationship with the Divine. But what does mean, and how do you do establish and keep this relationship strong, as an empowered human? So you can create the realities for yourself, others and this world you can feel in your heart are possible? Taking a step beyond religion constructs or estoreric spiritual concepts, join me for this Feminine Power Time: Plug into Your Divine Downline: 3 Ways to Create a Stronger Connection with the Universe, #3 of 3 in our Trinity of Connection Series. Whatever your beliefs and path are you are welcome in this conversation which is meant to be a way to expand and strengthen this very personal connection to the Divine/Universe/God/Force - whatever you call it. I will call it the Divine for simplicity. You choose whatever language works for you. Some of what we'll dive into: What does it mean to have a "RELATIONSHIP" to the Divine? As a co-creative partner? Going beyond law of attraction to the practice of co-creation to elevate our practice of how we vision, create our lives, manifest our dreams, do our work What is Grace? Really? How do you work with grace to make better choices? Struggle less? Spend your life force in more sustainable ways? Practices to strengthen your relationship and connection to this 'force' and presence Elevated way to approach visioning, intention setting, achieving and manifesting desires I felt so strongly we needed this series at this time to elevate our awareness about connection. You and I need connection - but what is it really? We just dove into the three points of connection we need in our lives - Self (heart desires and soul path)... Others (intimate and collective community)... Divine. As you step into this next cycle and set intentions, make changes, go for you dreams, take these points of connection into deep consideration. Make sure they are part of the practices and support you cultivate consciously. Connection is the net , the web that will hold you true to your soul's path and heart's desires... give you the courage and clarity you need to step forward into the unknown... and provide you with the guidance you need to create realities that go beyond what you've known before or what you see in the mainstream consciousness.

Most of us crave more meaningful, real connection, yet we also don't know how to cultivate it. Nor do we understand how we are holding ourselves back from the relationships we desire, individually and in community, professional and personally. As humans we need connection with other people to feel strong, safe, and loved. As leaders, we need connection with others to bring our sacred work into the world in ways that sustain us vs. deplete us. Which is why we dive deep into the second realm of the Trinity of Connection: Connection to Others in this episode of Feminine Power Time: #110: Have Stronger Connection with People & Community. Join me Christine Arylo, as we dive into: What is false connection or the kind of connection that doesn't really satisfy you - leaves you hungry What is holding you back from opening up to receive the connection you desire? How to reveal emotional and energetic entanglements from past relationships that make it hard or impossible to create new healthy relationships. How to release past emotional and energetic entanglements in a good and powerful way. I will also guide you to: Reveal which connections you currently have that could be grown or deepened in the coming year Make invitations to others to deepen connections in a way that's not weird or needy Put out into the Universe the kinds of individual connections and community connections you desire to seed and grow over the next 1-3 years to support you in your sacred work and life design. Give and Receive! I'll share some of my process as I am going through this exploration again myself, as I often do every year at this time. Connection is something you cultivate consciously. Working with what you desire AND allowing the Universe to guide you to connect like a divine switchboard operator. So much better than distorted networking ... our super power comes from meaningful and authentic connection. Tune in. This is ripe and ready for you to put into practice in your life now. We all need connection. In fact, the wealthiest people are the ones who truly have meaningful connection. See you there! xo Christine ***** Wisdom Inquiries from Feminine Power Time 1.

PAST: What emotional or energetic entanglments are cutting off the flow from the connections you truly desire? 4. PRESENT: What kinds of connections are missing in your life now?

Without a strong connection to your Self, your true self, not your ego self or personality self or emotional self, it is way too easy to create a life, choose a career, start a business, stay in a relationship or job that will never nourish or fulfill you, no matter how hare you try. Without consistent check ins with your Self, it's way too easy to end up 10 degrees off your soul's path. Too easy to get lost in doing too many things that actually don't matter to you. We hear lots about body/mind/spirit connection. But where's the heart? Where's the soul? We make lots of decisions from our logical minds, but is your life design really constellated and set up in a way that you LOVE YOUR LIFE, that you feel fulfilled and nourished and sustained? How successful are you feeling these days? Where are you giving your life force? Are you living your soul's path or someone else's version of success? These are the kinds of inquiries we dive into in today's Feminine Power Time with me, Christine Arylo, feminine leadership advisor and MBA... #1 of 3 in our TRINTY OF CONNECTION Series: Get Connected to Your Heart Desires and Soul Design. The first is Connection to Your Self, the true self - HEART, SOUL and body and then mind. Then we will dive into connection to your intimate circle and your connection to Spirit.Universe.Divine. What does it really mean to be connected to your Self? How do you know if you are or are not? How we fool ourselves to think we are connected to ourselves and making good choices, but are not. 4 Foundational promises you want to make with yourself to make sure you stay connected to your true desires and path? Why we make choices that are not right and true for our Self, and how to gain the courage to stay true to yourself. I'll lead you through a series of inquiries based on self awareness, self acceptance and self empowerment that will get you feeling and thinking inside about how you want to design your life, work and relationships in the coming cycle. Are you designing a life you love, in which you generously to yourself? In what ways is this true? In what ways not? Are you living your soul design? In what ways are you in alignment with your soul's path? And in what ways are you not? What is your body telling you about the health of your entire system? What your poop, periods and skin are alerting you to? And lastly as I share these, you'll start to open up to what you are intending and visioning for the new year .... from a deeper place than your mind. So you create a reality that sustains you, on all levels. Sustainable success. I am excited to share these inquiries and stories with you in this Connection series, going through what I call the Trinity of Love - connection to Self, connection to Others, connection to the Divine. May this support you to create a reality in which you can give your gifts, make a difference, savor your life, and receive what you need. Big heart, Christine Arylo p.s.

One of our most powerful sources of courage, clarity and wisdom comes from listening to the stories and experience and insight of women who have walked the path before us ... comes from asking inquiries that seek to take us deeper into the heart and expand us into new possibility. Our power as women comes in being in heartfull honest no b.s. conversation with each other, where there is exchange, sisterhood and truth. The Fierce Grace talks are meant to be that for us here at Feminine Power Time. I've wanted to do these for awhile now ... and while ones to come will likely have women talking live...I've now had the honor of being in conversation with Gloria Steinem twice. Once seven years ago 1:1 at a bistro in San Fran, and last night in a room of 2000 in Seattle. Both times she delivered wisdom bytes which have opened up awareness and given me confirmation of what we need as women, as humans, to stay centered, keep the hope, stand for peace and love and be agents of elevation and connection. In this episode of Feminine Power Time #108: Fierce Grace Talk: What Ive Learned from Gloria Steinem, I synthesized three potent pieces of wisdom, 'wisdom bytes', for you and I to chew on and apply to our lives now. Coupled with some of my own stories and an ending meditation to take this all within yourself. And inquiries to make this practical now to meet the intensity of the world in your own place of fierce grace. Tune in. See you there. Christine Here's a picture of Gloria and I in 2012 when she gave me the first piece of wisdom that opened me up to create the body of work that will be in Overwhelmed and Over It! p.p.s If you have any thoughts on how to best connect again with Gloria to share the wisdom she shared with me that I wrote up in the new book, email me at [email protected] WISDOM BYTES * Women can't have it all if that means doing it all * Our power as people comes from being linked * Gather yourselves * Imagine your future self walking the path ahead of you. Let her lead you. * Growth comes from saying yes to the unknown - From The Truth will Set You Free, But First it Will Piss You Off

When you pause in November to get clear about how you COULD spend your energy, time and resources and then mindfully choose where to focus in your work, relationships, and personal health ... you are so much more likely to end the year feeling good about your choices, and so start the year ready and regenerated for what is to come. This practice is called POWER PAUSING. Wise women do it 4-8 times a year at key points that harmonize us with the natural cycles. Specifically we do it in November so we don't get caught up in the swirl of the holiday madness and consumption, but instead make space for what matters. So many people fall into patterns during the holidays that drain and over stretch then - in how they spend their time, money, connection and what they consume. The holidays turn us into human consumption machines when what we are craving is human connection. In this Feminine Power Time power pause, "4 Inquiries to Support You to Create Space for What Truly Matters & What You Want to Get Done by Year End." Christine Arylo, women's leadership advisor, in which I'll share wisdom and walk you through a guided power pause: Teaches you about power pauses - why they work and how they support us as leaders, esp during intense times Gives you 4 inquiries to ask yourself at the end of the year to complete what really matters and stay sane, sustained and strong - you can apply these to your work, relationships and personal health to create the space to complete what matters most to you by the end of the year Shares how to stop the holiday time patterns and rituals that drain you and create new ones that sustain you - you will leave empowered to say NO to the obligatory holiday to do's that don't support you any longer Shares how to use these feminine wisdom inquiries to create deeper connection with your partner, team, friends and yourself. Sending you wisdom and love that how you give yourself permission to stay focused on what matters and what sustains YOU as you complete this year. Big heart, Christine EVENTS & PROGRAMS 1.

For Women Leaders and Change Makers - The 2020 Elevate Feminine Leadership Immersion and Incubator Starts Jan 2020 - to get the invitation go here. *** Wisdom Inquiries from Today: 1. What do you desire to be true about your sacred work in the world come spring next year? What do you need to focus on the last part of this year? 2. What will you complete by the end of this year? Choose only what feels empowering and sustaining ... 1-3 things for each realm at most: * Your Work * Your Body/Health * Your Home * Your Financial Flow and Wealth 3. Look at your holiday rituals through the end of the year -what drains you? what sustains you?

While the holiday marketing and messages promise us tidings of peace and joy the reality is that the consciousness of overculture is set to get you and I to buy more, consume more, and do more. And while we all want more meaningful connection, and the last two months of the year can be full of invitations... it's way too easy to say yes to things because of obligation, habit or fear of missing out. Every year as we go into November, I take a stand for us all here at Feminine Power Time to do things differently - in how we make our choices for how we spend our time, money and energy so that come the new year YOU FEEL SUSTAINED and REPLENISHED - emotionally, physically, spiritually, financially and mentally. The next few Feminine Podcasts will support you to do this - full of wisdom, practices and permission. And I also host three Feminine Wisdom Sessions, one in Nov, one in Dec, one in Jan that go even deeper and give you the structure to make choices that support you to achieve and do what matters (more on those below). For today's Feminine Power Time: "Doing Your Hoildays Differently: Choose What Sustains You vs. Drains You" I'll take you through: The 3 C's for Doing Your Holidays in Ways that Sustain You: Consumer. Connect. Conserve. Consuming: How to wake up and see which choices for what you buy and what you put in your body sustain you (and the planet), and which don't. Connect: Say NO to gatherings/invitations that drain you and Say YES to what sustains you, without feeling guilt Conserve: How to monitor your life force and resources so you don't deplete them, but instead start the new year full. 2 Wisdom inquiries you can use when making choices to keep you true to yourself 1 Harmonizing Practice that will keep you out of overhelm and burnout, and keep you giving in harmony vs overgiving. Tune in. I will be here every week, giving you the structure -the questions, the practices, the permission - so you don't fall into the over culture swirl, or the obligations or fear of missing out choices, or your own self sabotage to over indulge, over spend, over extend. We need you to be healthy, on all levels. This world needs your heart and wisdom. I'm here to make sure you have it to give xo Christine p.s.

Within you lies a great power that you are likely only using a very small part of - your Feminine Super Power of Intuition. In ancient times it was called "The Sight" and women, and men, were killed for having and using it. Women were called witches, whores, evil sorceress just because they could tap into what scientests now call 'the quantum field' to access insight, direct knowing. What does this have to do with you? One of the biggest reasons we don't trust ourselves, doubt ourselves, don't speak up, don't feel confident, don't take the leap, or take a risk, or we stay stuck is because we don't have embodied access to our intuitive power nor do we know how to use it. And for thousands of years if you had it or showed it, you were a goner. Witch was just an easy way to shut women, and men up. You need access to, and ways to strengthen your intuitive power to meet these intense times ... to SEE what is real... to SEE what is B.S. fed to you by the over-culture or other people... to SEE what your soul is trying to wake you up to. So... I created this episode of Feminine Power Time: Get Witchy: Reclaim Your Feminine Super Power of Intuition for you. I literally taped it on the crescent moon, on Halloween, candles lit... let's dive in: What is a Witch really? Why is it connected to how empowered you feel now? Why do we have 'feminine fear' -the fear to speak up and stand out or do things differently? The 5 access points of intuitive power - which are weak and strong within you? Two practices for accessing deeper wisdom - try them, i think you will love them! Why you resist opening your ability to 'see' and access this wisdom What this has to do with the current reality of power-over systems, and how people try to control the images, stories, realities we live in. How to expand your Intuitive Sight and use it to empower yourself and guide your work and life in good ways. Tune in. See you there. Under the crescent moon. with special thank you to Lisa Lister author of the book "Witch: Unleashed, Untamed, Unapologetic" for the definition of what witch really is. You may never use this word in how you describe yourself, but you want to understand what it means and see how it's been used to disempower women and men for far too long. with great Heart, Christine p.s RSVP for the Feminine Wisdom Session on Nov 11th: Crazy Wisdom: Practices for Conjuring Up Clarity, Courage & Calm in Intense Times ... www.femininewisdomsession.com p.p.s. LOVE for you to SHARE this with a friend or two who you think could benefit from a sacred pause in her life and open up to her own deep feminine wisdom within. SISTERHOOD POWER!

You have goals, dreams, desires, yes? Things you want to achieve, change, manifest, see happen? Ever feel like they are not happening fast enough or happening to the level you wanted or expected or see other people achieving? Ever judged yourself for not being where you think you should be now? Or put pressure on yourself with deadlines and timelines that you needed to do things by that stressed you out? Welcome to being a woman in the 21st century influenced by an overculture whose expectations for growth and success are completely distorted! And tune into this Feminine Power Time so we can support you to do it differently. I've been working on my next book Overwhelmed and Over It! and thinking a lot about all of you and me and all of the women and courageous conscious men who have a big heart desire to make a difference in the world AND who desire to achieve their personal dreams and desires AND who want to be sustained materially and spiritually, and not have to sell their soul for money or have no money to keep their soul. What I see so often is that we have not been taught how to work and grow our work, careers, and wealth in ways that really work, for how women or really humans work. So we exhaust ourselves, or our resources. Or we never feel like we are doing enough. Or we try and do too much. So I took a pause from writing, to pop my head out and share this Feminine Power Time with you: Achieve Succeed Receive: How Women Grow Their Work, Careers and Wealth best. A few thing we dive into: How our personal expectations on ourselves for growth are influenced, not in a supportive way, by the over culture The Self Induced Pressure Cookers - the different ways you can put unnecessary pressure on yourself, your team, your organization based on timelines that are so not in rhythm.

I would love more time! I wish I had more time! Oh, if I only had more time. I feel like I don't have enough time to do it all. Most of us feel the pressure of not enough time a lot. Our society thrives on time pressure, although you and I do not. While there are lots of ways timelines and deadlines get imposed on us that we don't have control over. There are many ways that you are creating your own stress and lack of time - which you can change and control. Obligation. Guilt. Worry. Over Efforting. That's where we dive in! My mission in this Feminine Power Time podcast: Time Sucks & Time Stealers: 3 Ways to Stop Wasting Your Time SO You Have the Space for What Matters is to give you three very specific things to watch out for in the way you are making your choices that could be robbing time from you. Making you feel like you don't have enough time ... and filling up your time so you are busy doing too much... stealing time from what matters to you. My intention is that you'll be able to identify these 3 time stealers and then use the practices and wisdom inquiries I share to make different choices ... to do the last part of this year differently, including the holidays, how you focus in your career/business, how you make sure there is space for what really matters to you. Here's what we will dive into: The 3 Time Suckers - Obligation, Guilt, Worry (and over efforting). How to tell when you are wasting time or letting your time get sucked away from you Why guilt is an inappropriate emotion for almost all the ways in which you feel guilty - and what to do about it How to stop acting from obligation and get clear on what you want to do and give How to give the right amount of time, energy and effort to a project or person And more.. Here are the Wisdom Inquiries from the show: OBLIGATION - What do I want to give? What is in alignment to give? GUILT - What am I afraid of? - What don't I want to deal with? - What do I want? WORRY & OVER EFFORTING - What is needed now? Here is one thing you can do to support this show and the women you love and influence: SHARE * RATE * REVIEW thank you!

I decided to extend our Power Pause into a 2-part series because I felt like we could use it! Lots of people feeling pressure, as we go into the last 3 months of the year. But that doesn't mean the pressure is healthy, needed or productive! I'm going to take you through a mini version of a Feminine Wisdom Way practice I do once a year at this time to ferret out the "SELF INDUCED PRESSURE" - the pressure you put yourself that adds to your stress load, triggers your self sabotaging habits, drains your life force and sucks the joy out of whatever you are doing. Self induced pressure is pressure you have the power to release. You may not be able to change all the systemic pressure coming at you from $$ to deadlines to taxes or whatever. But you can change the self induced pressure. Which is what we will do together in this Feminine Power Time with me, Christine Arylo, feminine leadership advisor, "Pressure Release Power Pause: 3 Ways to Release the Self-Induced Stress & Create Space and Sanity for the Rest of the Year. Here's some of what we will dive into: The difference between healthy and helpful pressure, and toxic sabotaging pressure How to tell when you are feeling pressured - the mental, physical and emotional signs One simple practice for what to do when you feel pressured so you can discern what is really needed and what is just a bunch of b.s. man made or self made pressure A set of 4 inquiries you can ask yourself How to reset timelines in a way that feels good and in the flow We will dive into your life now, and ferret out the self induced pressure you can release because of Timelines, deadlines, and time frames - yours and others Pushing - yourself, others, projects Unrealistic and misaligned Expectations This is such a supportive power power to do that will impact your career/work/business and your relationships AND your own sense of spaciousness, health and even money. Wise women leaders pause before they move swiftly into the last 3 months of the year - this is the feminine wisdom way. Try this short practice and see what happens. WISDOM INQUIRIES 1. What is real? 2. What is needed? 3. What is enough? 4. What is in the flow? ****** ALSO - SHARING SURVEY RESULTS Thank you so much for those of you who responded to the survey this summer.

There are many things you could do these last 3 months of the year, but what is really most important to you? What will bring you the best returns? And what shifts in your habits, patterns, and structures are needed to support you in this last cycle? Wise women know how to use the natural cycles of the earth and universe to support them to grow their work, wealth and relationships, to support their health, and to keep them focused on what matters. The September Equinox offers you insight to illuminate where the imbalances currently exist in your life & how to reset yourself and refocus your life force - especially the ways in which you are over giving and under receiving, the habits that may have worked in the summer but won't support you now, and the ways in which making changes to your home, health and wealth can support you to end your year strong, sane and supported. In this Feminine Power Time with women's leadership and empowerment advisor and teacher, Christine Arylo, marries her MBA business background with 15+ years of wisdom and spiritual study in practical ways that can support you to elevate out of overhwelm, stay focused on what matters, shift sabotaging habits and take care of small things that make a big difference. Tune into this Power Pause and: Learn the wisdom behind taking power pauses 4 times a year - and how this practice can yield big returns in your business, career, relationships and health/wealth/home Experience the feminine way of growing our work and impact vs tackling projects, driving like a torpedo, or pressuring ourselves to make things happen too fast Be led through a visualization and meditation to: Feel good about what you have already done this year. Reveal the imbalances - work, relationships, health, wealth or home - that need attention. Consider what you need to bring the imbalances into harmony, so you have what you need Gain clarity on how to best focus your attention the last part of this year - what will bring you the most meaningful and abundant harvest? Power Pauses are a form of feminine leadership which teaches us to work in harmony with the natural cycles of how the material and mystical world both work. Part of her Feminine Wisdom School, Arylo teaches how to use this ancient wisdom and way of working to apply to creating a life and work that creates an impact and is sustainable.

I've been talking with so many people who have been feeling the affects of the intensity of the state of the world, the intense weather, their own intense changing lives... and there is a lot of anxiety bubbling up that leads to doubt, confusion, burnout, overwhelm. So I thought we needed to have a honest heart to heart about: Anxiety & Doubt: How to Release and Reduce the Confusion & Swirl Within You * How do you know if anxiety and doubt is driving you? Some of you know because you can feel it in your body. But others of you are masking over it. Stuffing your anxiety and doubt with food, drink, tv, shopping, work? Neither way is good for us. * What is causing the anxiety and doubt at amplified levels that you might not know are affecting you? It is normal to have fear. Normal to feel worry or anxiety at times. But the levels we are dealing with right now, adding to the overwhelm, are being caused in large part by events, technology and other people. * What is underneath the anxiety that you may be having trouble accessing, so it keeps you in overwhelm, worry, doubt, confusion? I'll share a story of mine that reflects the deep grief many women feel at a heart level for what is happening to the planet, to the children, to the people that they don't know how to be with or release. * How do you release this anxiety and doubt? So you can access clarity and calm and wisdom? I'll share some simple but mighty practices you can use in your daily life to release the anxiety and breakthrough to clarity and calm. I use these myself. I've been feeling so passionate about sharing this story with you and some of the practices I use myself. We live in intense times. If you are not practicing actively protecting your energy field, releasing the deeper grief or fear, it's like not taking a shower for weeks. Eventually your mind and subconscious will stink and your will be an emotional or physical mess. This is yogic wisdom for our modern world. My role is to continue to help us be awake to what is happening around and within us. And to share the practices that can keep us centered, clear, in our hearts and higher intelligence to be agents for change, love, elevation and harmony in this world. In sustainable ways. I hope this episode of Feminine Power Time - Ep #102: Anxiety & Doubt: How to Release and Reduce the Confusion & Swirl Within You - supports you wherever this finds you today. with great heart, Christine p.s....
