How To Radiate Goddess Energy
Written by Michelle Manis
This one is for the ladies
(or anyone who needs a little “goddess” in their lives)
I hope this Halloween you dressed up as the goddess that you are, always showing up in life as your best self. I hope everyday you embody that, whatever it means to you. What do you think of when you hear the word “goddess”? Perhaps a painting of a Greek divine figure, a specific goddess like Aphrodite, or maybe it’s your mother or another powerful female figure you’re inspired by. Maybe you took the spiritual approach and see goddess as an embodiment of “divine feminine” energy (more on that later), or maybe goddess to you is your higher self and your greatest potential. Goddess can mean all of this and more- it’s all about how you view what a goddess truly is and how you can implement their attributes to cultivate confidence, strength, and self care into your life.
Before we can tap into this energy we need to understand what “goddess energy” is all about. Ashlina Kaposta from the Blissfully Ambitious podcast defines goddess or divine feminine energy as, “a concept that transcends cultural and religious boundaries, offering women a profound source of empowerment, connection, and self-discovery.” She speaks of how it helps one lean into their intuition, empathy, compassion, creativity, and receptivity- all attributes of divine feminine or goddess energy that have the power of healing and empowering. In a nutshell, exploring the divine feminine is a powerful healing tool and can deepen one’s understanding of themself, all while learning how to go with the flow, allow opportunities to fall in your path, and become a magnet to your desires.
The Art of Allowing
Goddesses don’t run themselves ragged, overextend themself, or allow others to take advantage of their energy. Instead, they operate on the opposite: taking care of themselves, believing in their greatness, and allowing the good to flow to them by letting go of any judgements or doubts. Sound familiar? That’s because goddess energy mirrors the mindset you must get comfortable with practicing when you manifest, like the “I don’t chase I attract,” “I allow in what is meant for me” “I protect my energy and peace” and “I’m capable of achieving my goals and biggest desires.” Goddess energy can be a tool to aid your manifestations and works hand in hand to strengthen your self concept and confidence! Remember, to flow, you must allow. Trying to swim upstream overwhelming and burning yourself out is NOT what a goddess would do. She would prioritize her wellbeing.
Make Yourself a Priority, See The Shift
Start treating yourself like a goddess, protecting your body, mind, soul, and peace and see how the world shifts. Oftentimes, how we treat ourselves and how we view what we deserve shapes how others view us. We seem alluring and confident when we slow down, we look better from putting in the time to care about how we show up in the world, and in return we command respect from others when we enforce our boundaries and give ourselves what we need. It all starts from within and BELIEVING that 1) you ARE a goddess, and 2) you DESERVE to be treated as such.
If you Believe It, You Can Achieve It
Showing up in the world with goddess energy is NOT inflating your ego, putting others down, believing you’re better than others, or being entitled. It IS about believing you deserve what you work hard for: success, true love, and an easy, enjoyable, fulfilling life with plenty of rest and self care. It’s someone who understands that they have unlimited capacity to make their life anything they want. Someone who is inspired to give to those around them and possesses gratitude for their abundance will allow for more abundance to come to them.
I’ll leave you with a few concrete ways you can tap into your goddess energy:
Find what feels sensual and practice it
Read about femininity and the spirituality attached to it
Appreciate and celebrate beauty
Do more of what brings peace
Create something, garden, connect with the earth
Rest!
Wear clothes that empower you
Lastly, remember that you are a goddess and you deserve all the abundance and rest in your life!
Be Well,
Michelle
