The Art of Self Compassion & How to Cultivate It

The Vital Goddess ·

2025/05/23

Compassion is a beautiful human quality. It opens us into deeper experiences of love, intimacy and gratitude. Receiving compassion from others can be just the medicine we need when things get tough. Compassion feels good in the body and like a balm to the soul. To give it and to receive it elevates us into the realm of human spirit. When compassion enters the room it's like a deep exhale. And a candle in the dark. When someone offers us true compassion we feel seen. Like we matter. We feel co...

Why We Go Numb and What to Do About It

The Vital Goddess ·

2025/05/16

We all know that feeling... Uncomfortably numb. We're so good at showing up and functioning in the most stressful and chaotic circumstances. Most women I know are masters at it. While this strategy of overriding our feelings and our bodies to do what needs to be done helps us adapt and survive, it's not a long term solution. When we go numb, we can't selectively numb. And there's a cost. A significant cost. To live our lives to the fullest, we need ways of breaking the cycle. We need pl...

Happy Mother’s Day weekend! On the one hand, it’s a beautiful celebration of motherhood and on the other… well, it can bring up a lot. It’s layered. It’s complex. What I’ve found to be incredibly healing and empowering on my own journey as a woman, as a daughter and as a mother is to connect with the true power of mother. The Creatrix The Great Mother within. The womb. The womb is not just about fertility. This goes far beyond the biomedical definition of Uterus. The womb is our chalice...

The Vital Goddess ·

2025/05/02

Drama. It's everywhere. It's expensive. It's exhausting. It's more addictive than caffeine. And the crash is worse too. Society runs on drama more than it runs on Dunkin. And it can run us into the ground. While drama is a part of life, it can be less so in yours. We can take the reins. Want my favorite way to pattern disrupt this madness? I've got you! Let's dive in!

The Vital Goddess ·

2025/04/25

Oy! The voice of the Inner Critic. We can so easily get duped into believing the bs, can't we? Nothing kills our joy and pleasure more quickly than unsolicited feedback from the Saboteur within.

How Your Sensuality Ignites Your Intuition

The Vital Goddess ·

2025/04/18

Your intuition is gold. And it's so unique to you and you alone. Without a reliable connect to your inner wisdom you can easily lose the plot on your precious life. Why you're here. What you came here to express and create. What the next step is for you on this spiraling journey. We live in exciting times And incredibly noisy times. It can be challenging to cut through the din and tune into the muse within. Even more challenging to trust that inner knowing when we need it most. Having a clear...

Sacred Beauty/ How to Claim Your Radical Radiance

The Vital Goddess ·

2025/04/04

Beauty is a loaded topic isn't it? Brings up a lot. Which is why we need to explore it. Beauty has been hijacked and distorted. Almost beyond recognition. And what we see now (pretty much everywhere in society) is the toxic mimic. True beauty is sacred. It’s is a reveal, not a cover up. Your essence dancing in your cells. It has everything to do with embracing your sensuality and pleasure. And nothing to do with "fixing yourself" or trying to achieve some kind of manufactured ideal of p...

The Feminine Face of Tantra

The Vital Goddess ·

2025/03/28

If feeling irritated, wired and tired is your normal, you're not alone. If accessing your sensual pleasure and feminine flow state has been a struggle, again, you're in good company. We live in a world that makes feeling good in your skin a major challenge. Many women feel depleted, exhausted and done by the time they hit midlife. (Men too btw). Things are massively out of balance and it shows in our bodies, in our emotional state and in all of our relationships, especially in our most intima...

How Perfectionism Kills Our Pleasure & How to Turn it...

The Vital Goddess ·

2025/03/21

Perfectionism is sneaky thing. It's usually creeps in during childhood as an attempt to feel safer in a world that didn't actually feel that safe. In response to a confusing and overwhelming world (even if our parents did a great job), our young selves can easily feel uneasy and take on a belief that if we do things perfectly, we'll get our needs met. We'll feel safe. We'll feel accepted. We'll prove ourselves worthy. We'll earn the love we crave. We'll be ok. It's a trauma respon...

Midlife, Menopause & Beyond/ The Call of the Wild

The Vital Goddess ·

2025/02/28

I'm sure you've noticed: We're bombarded daily with toxic, disempowering narratives on what it means to age as a woman. Constant attacks designed to leave us feeling invisible and "put out to pasture.” Fear mongering and "it's the beginning of the end" story? It can really mess with you. On a bad day, you may even start to believe all the bs. We've been trained to seek outside of ourselves for pretty much everything. It's a huge distraction. Truth is, everything we seek, we already have...

The Taoist Jade Egg practice is one of the most curative and empowering practices on the planet for the female libido. So many women (of all ages) are struggling with low libido, unfulfilling sex lives; feeling numb, bored, exhausted or experiencing pain in their intimate lives. Some women give up on sex entirely. Some grin and bear it and get really good at faking. Many end up blaming themselves and feeling exasperated with what's on offer in the realm of modern medicine. There's a better wa...

Happy Valentine's Day! 🌹🎉💘 A day when many people celebrate love. All kinds of love, but especially romantic love. Romantic love is a powerhouse isn't it? And so layered. It's one of the most compelling experiences a human can have. I think most people would agree; to swoon is divine. We see the world differently in that rose-colored state. Our mood soars.

The Vital Goddess ·

2025/02/08

The evidence on the impact our emotions have on our quality of life is impossible to refute. Our emotions play a huge role on how we feel in our bodies. Our health and vitality are greatly effected by our emotional state. Not to mention our pleasure, sensuality and intimacy. Emotions are a part of our human experience but how we process them (or not) is intrinsic to our wellbeing. We focus a lot on emotional release and alchemy in my work and today I want to introduce you to a woman who...

Sometimes our biggest obstacles are hiding in plain sight.If you’ve ever felt stuck or stalled in manifesting the life of your dreams you’re in good company.And it’s not your fault.We’re always manifesting.And we all carry unconscious & semi-conscious blocks that keep us in cycles of drawing in what we don’t actually want.
