You are so busy doing, doing that suddenly the hour, day, month, year is gone and everything seems like a blur? Have you ever wondered. "Why am I here There must be more to life than this"
I asked these questions. In the hope of some answers, I read books, took classes, meditate, and also became certified in several healing methods. No matter what I did was something missing! Some pieces of the puzzle of life I've played. I've heard, whatever the missing pieceIt was all pulling together, let me see the whole picture. In the midst of my confusion, I met Monica Garaycochea, l ', creator and founder teacher dedicated to the goddess of inspiration, a seminar to help women discover their true nature.
I asked Monica: "How did the trip?" Monica took a deep breath and began .. "It 'started about fifteen years ago, in Spain, my home was a successful physician with a clinic, a successful man I was married, had a beautifulHouse, a beautiful, healthy baby, and was well respected in society. Retrieved from "outside" all appeared happy, but the truth was that there was something missing "inside." I was deeply dissatisfied. I tried to keep you occupied, tut tut, take part in my clinic, my home, the child, her husband, her friends, but no amount or distractions could keep my world from falling apart. For my family and close relations were extremely important to me and these were the first to reveal. My close relationshipit was absolutely painful. I felt like a wounded animal trapped without an escape, alone and vulnerable. To survive, I said the only way I knew, I was shocked the outside world and kept creating more and arguments that led to serious problems.
When I look back on this period of my life, I realize that it was completely empty. I had nothing to give "real". I did my void, demanding that they cover. It 'been a hell for me, just like everyone in my area.
This time in my lifeunfortunately ended in divorce. But through the pain of divorce, I felt compelled to look inside myself. Fortunately, I found the courage and support for my life and my face. This is. When I jumped on my personal labyrinth to heal my wounds, and forgive me, "Monica has a quiet moment of reflection before continuing." During this period I discovered many things about me. Being the most important discovery, I realized that I did not know and honor of my femininity. What does "being female", ieme? That was a huge problem. Honestly for me, which meant that I was a human female to be second class, irrational, emotional distress, manipulative, seductive and painful. Therefore, I deny my femininity. To adapt and be comfortable in this world, I developed my mind and was very intelligent, capable, practical, rational, successful ...
Then one day, during a quiet moment, my heart, presented these questions. Because God has created men and women? Why am I a woman? And whatdoes this mean for me? Today I know that these questions at the end I have connected with my passion for life. Once I accepted that my body was not an accident, a woman's body in a divine and sacred gift. This beautiful trail led me to recognize the divine goddess -. A gift that is in every woman "
I asked Monica, "I can also experience my inner goddess?" Without hesitation, Monica responded enthusiastically: "Yes!"
I immediately asked: "How?" Monicalaughed and said: "The first step is to recognize and celebrate the wonder of the female body Have you ever thought about the difference between the male and female body, male sexual organs on the outside easily, are clearly visible, the object.? to outside. To me, this gives me an understanding of the male energy as the more outgoing, more action-oriented and goal-oriented. In contrast, the female reproductive organs are internal, showsEnergy, the more invisible oriented, more introspective, is mysterious. The wisdom that we can experience through the ceremony and the feeling of the womb of our mother, is very powerful. "Understanding" of our tours, we can also "embrace" the wisdom of conception, pregnancy and the birth of creation. I refer not only children, although she was a child was the greatest miracle I have ever seen in my life, but I'm talking about every kind of creation, a project, desire, thoughts, etc.. If we are aware that for inner wisdom,we can more easily embrace the cycle of life: birth and death, day and night, new moon and full moon, light and darkness ... To understand this, from the bottom, it means that life is an experience and every moment is magical. You will no longer afraid to live, but feel your connection with the power of life and experience of course the flow of life. "
I was confused and asked Monica to explain what he means with the help of your womb, the life experience. Monica knew it was a newConcept for me, so he kept gently and with love. "This is not something that can be explained logically. It can only be experienced, but I will do my best to give you an idea.
I see the female body as an instrument of divine communication that helps us learn from this physical world. This gift is wrapped in the form of a beautiful female body and has the ability, the Universal Spirit in us and through us to awaken to enable women to expand their experience and divinityand holiness in a concrete way. What a concept! If we know more and be intimate with our bodies, we learn a new language. This new language is the essence of femininity, it is awakened and developed during the workshop Goddess inspired by various methods such as the playful dance, graphics, exercises, body language and ceremonies. I see the female organs as a representative of the Universal Womb, where all creation begins. Our body and the miracle of the menstrual cycle, allowingWomen at a level of openness that goes beyond thoughts of mental experience, because it is magic, is unpredictable, there are patients, it is accepted, it's quiet, it is unconditional and absolute pure potentiality. "
I was curious and wanted to know more. "What is your vision for inspiration Goddess?" Monica said: "My vision for Goddess Inspiration is to encourage all women on earth to recognize and honor their holiness and experience their divinity, the image of Sir Edward Burnes-Jones."The Mirror of Venus" (the title), exemplifies my vision for the workshop. The workshop is for women only and offers the possibility, in our true inner self to seek the safety of the sisters of other women. "
I was fascinated! So I asked Monica to tell me more about the philosophy of the goddess of inspiration. Monica said: "Goddess of inspiration, the way in which wounds heal, offering the belief that our spirituality, our divinity is created separately from our matter, ourBody, our physical world. It is not separate! Doubting Your direct line to "Deity" prevents truly know and feel the love, because this perception of separateness will be immortalized in your world. With this idea of separation, we can find peace. We may be afraid to fight, compete with each other or judge. We can keep the world from our holiness and piety, or fear, judgments and thoughts of separation. The choice is ours! However, if we have the courage to findOur roots are in this physical body and physical world works like this, it is possible to argue that the light illuminate the world.
The goddess of inspiration, you can see everyone enjoys the benefits of both male and female aspects in their being-ness. Goddess Inspiration recognizes these two aspects, but focuses on the female. The manly virtues are well developed, while the feminine virtues need to be revived anddeveloped so that we can see more of a balance or harmony in our personality. Imagine a world with an action that honors the heart, the soul and the mysteries of life. "
I asked: "How do you bring these gifts of the feminine into our consciousness?" Monica said: "I use the myths of ancient gods, hence the name of the goddess of inspiration I decided to go for the ancient goddesses because of the similarities between the values of our society is a patriarchal culture, because I use myths ..?Mythological tales have a powerful tool to explain the use of parables, life experiences. Each goddess, we will explore an aspect of our exemplary personality. As we identify with the different goddesses and their unique personalities, we begin to understand and embrace who we are. We celebrate our uniqueness, while understanding and embracing the similarities.
The archetypes and personalities of the ancient goddesses are universal. We all experience different GoddessArchetypes in different stages of our lives. An archetype is an inner strength that a set of behaviors that we act in a certain concrete. An archetype, once activated, is very powerful. If you do not do anything original, then it is likely that you have become a victim of this archetype.
The good news is that through this seminar, you may be aware of the different archetypes. So instead of a victim, you can experience and learn to call the archetypesand how to support, if necessary. "
I asked Monica if you help the understanding of the various goddess archetypes we have only ourselves to better understand, or if it helps us relate better to other women in our lives. Monica said. "Of course, knowledge of the archetypes will help you learn and understand more and definitely help to understand and relate to other women with this secular understanding, you will be able to honor and respect all women in their model. They are not morehave a tendency to judge other women, rather than accept, recognize, encourage and celebrate their own way. "
I asked Monica to show me how this could be similar, said: "Ok, let's play!"
With our imagination, led me to Monica, a great trip for a wedding. In a flash, changing our environment and to my surprise we are sitting on the balcony of a beautiful church. From this point of view we see the whole church full of guests. All eyes are on how the bride and groomthey exchange their wedding vows. We focus our attention on the bride. It 'absolutely radiant as she says, "I do". Soon the couple kiss, sealing their vows. The bride looks into the eyes of her new husband, and we feel his deep connection and commitment to him. Smile, the couple will announce their guests and the minister, "It 'my great pleasure to introduce Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Maker". The bride slips from her husband's arm and felt very proud, almost beyond the unmarriedFriends should be like a queen slowly down the hall. This observation is Monica points out, this wife Hera, the goddess of marriage and commitment. For Hera, that a woman is the most important role in their lives.
We follow the couple to the reception which was held in a garden. Monica chooses a seat in one of the trees, where we see the goddess too cozy. It 'amazing! The flowers were in bloom and the breeze carries the scent of summer. The trees provide shadeand cool in the summer afternoon. It 'a very festive. Our goal is to host a women to serve food to attract more children. She is warm and affectionate, always looking for, check to see if someone needs something. She smiles and has fun, supporting others. Monica said it was a good example of Demeter, the goddess mother is abundant. Demeter life experience as a "caretaker", mother and nurse of general, as the most important role in theirLife.
Discover the branch of the tree, we have a woman who desperately seeking. Slowly, she approached a younger woman. She is dressed in a flowing dress pastel blue floral pattern with flowers in their hair. It seems so innocent, almost naive. We feel we can feel the pain of this troubled woman. He looks around the room, until it comes into visual contact with an older woman, the mother. Find a nod of appreciation, before speaking to this desperate woman. With his motherOkay, sits beside the young woman and the woman starts a conversation, offer comfort and a reassuring hug. Monica smiles and says: "This young woman is Persephone, goddess of a very sensitive and intuitive, is the experience of life beyond the physical world ..
We heard a noise and look around. There is a confusion from the area near the fountain. We see many guests are thrilled and leave the area. This is when we see two dogs fighting. The group will move a womanquickly and decisively to separate the dogs. It has a touch of confidence to interact with animals and animals for their sweetness and balance. While petting the dog and relaxing, controlling the dogs to injury. Soon the two dogs that are fighting a few minutes, he played beautifully and go merrily on their way. We really love this woman, so let's take a closer look. It seems a little 'out of place for a wedding. He has a style all their own. Her dress is very casual andcomfortable. She is not wearing any make-up and even though his hair is gray, do nothing to hide. When he returned to his friends to finish their conversation, a man approaches, but leaves soon. The emotional debate on women's rights and protection of children has caused discomfort. Monica tells of Artemis. Artemis is passionate about protecting the rights of women and sisterhood of women, children and all the creatures of the earth.
TheThe reception area is alive with joy, laughter and music. Many guests dancing. Our attention to it, a group that is deliberately detach themselves from the party has moved. A woman at the center of this group captures our attention. He was a tall woman in a classic style, cream-colored suit skirt. Her hair is cut to fashion. It seems indeed to be "perfect", as if they had left the cover of some magazine. It seems very confident and is involved in a lively discussion. And 'the onlyWoman among several men and seems very comfortable in this situation. Our focus is on conversation, and we are surprised by their know-how, business mixed with pleasure. It 'explained by multiple strategies and tips, how to be successful in business, as they climbed the corporate ladder to become VP. We are so immersed in conversation that we almost fall from the tree. Monica smiles and says: ". It 'obvious that Athena is in her element and enjoying" GoddessAthena is an intellectual who is very driven and career success.
Since our balance back into the tree, we see a new couple has just arrived. The man is well dressed and his wife has a dress that coordinates. They look great together. They draped over his arm, no doubt are a couple. Leaves her husband to drink and a plate of food to serve, before she receives the food. The table food, begins to someone who looks like a big man to speak.Under the man's arm, leads him to her husband and engage them in conversation. Monica calls this behavior is typical of Hera, the support of her husband, be powerful and important. Mid-sentence men to go quietly. Hera's behavior changes suddenly, the eyes move in the direction of the charm of her husband. He noticed a woman dancing provocative and sensual. It adds the arm below the elbow and her husband moved in close, almost in a protective attitude. She is jealous.Monica cries: "I know that feeling!"
Could not miss this woman, wearing a wrap-around red dress, and she, of course, with great care with her makeup and hair. She exudes confidence, both in how you look and movement of his body. Flowing with the rhythm of music. And 'more than beautiful, is in love with her experience and to view each course taken. She is aware of people looking for her, but does not interfere with or distractinnocence is the pure experience. She is the embodiment of passion and the man who is with the dance, is excited about this display as we do. We are on this screen, you lose track of time enraptured. I need to shake Monica from her trance. "Hey, who is this goddess?" Monica says that Aphrodite, goddess of love and sensuality. It 'very easy to lose track of time with this goddess. Do you like beauty for beauty, Aphrodite is only now we can inspireto be "A" as "IN LOVE" with ourselves, the mind, another person, project, or life in general.
Monica asked me: "How do you want to experience and enjoy all these goddesses?" My response was: "It 'really possible?" Monica smiled and said. "Yes, the gift that every woman in it"
I responded with enthusiasm ... "Where do I sign for me?"
