Driving, striving, grinding is not the only way to succeed, achieve and live. Pushing to deadlines - ours and others - that make us sick and stressed out is not the only way to be productive and get stuff done. It’s just how we’ve be trained to work, nose to the grindstone, climbing mountains, giving it our all until there’s nothing left.

But what if there was a different way? A wise way? One that created realties in which what really mattered got done … where we had space to breathe and savor our efforts and every day lives … where people were treated as human beings not machines ... and we motivated ourselves by energized inspiration instead of toxic pressure?

This reality is not a fairy tale. It is a possibility. It is a perspective shift on productivity that empowers you to redefine success.

And it is a practice - one that if you are brave enough to implement it in your work, career, projects, relationships and expectations will lead you to a lot more freedom, fulfillment and impact, because you are focused on the right things in the right timing … aka you are working in the flow vs. pushing forward ignoring the signs.

In this episode of Feminine Power Time with feminine leadership advisor Christine Arylo, #147 Pace Don’t Push: A Wiser Way to Achieve & Succeed, take an exhale and prepare to release the unnecessary pressure you’ve been feeling from others, or putting on yourself.

And then go into your life and start putting PACE DON'T PUSH into practice in your every day choices. Expect resistance. Expect fear. Move forward anyway, in the flow, vs forcing your way through.

Here’s some of what we’ll dive in

• How do you tell the difference between pushing that tears and pulling that stretches
• What pushing feels like when you are wasting energy, time and money or trying to do things too fast
• Why do we push instead of pausing ?
• Why are we scared and resistant to resetting deadlines? Or moving delivery dates?

And at the end of the podcast I will lead you through a visualization to:

• Reveal where you might be pushing and wasting your life force and resources.
• Give you a practice that will help you stop the push, find the pace of grace and work in the flow     

I am so looking forward to having this conversation with you.

See you there.

With great heart,

Christine

p.p.s. Stay tuned for announcement for the Spring Overwhelmed and Over It experience. 

It  may not sound sexy - the Four Parts of Self - but that doesn't mean it's not super powered.  In traditional schooling and training, we learn to over focus on the mind. In our society, we talk about mental wellness and physical wellness, but what about emotional and soul wellness? We read and hear about body, mind and spirit ... but what about the heart? Did you ever wonder why the heart gets left out? 

The models we use for understanding our selves, which drive how connected we feel and which ultimately create the perspectives and reality we live are lacking the full circle of what makes us whole humans - body, mind, heart and soul. 

The foundation of leadership and creating the world we wish to see starts with the relationship we have with our selves.  

So today in #1 of 3 of a Feminine Power Series: Redefining Our Relationships: The Four Parts of Self, Knowing How Your Whole Self Works, we dive into re-defining our understanding the Self...through these four parts and the relationship they have with each other:

Know your mind.

Know your heart.

Know your soul.

Know your body.

When you really know how these four parts work individually and together, within you, you gain so much more awareness - of yourself and everything around you - which leads to so much more compassion, empowerment and ALIGNMENT.

I poured some coffee and lit a candle, so we can have a deeper conversation, and exploration on each of these 4 realms.

For each, I'll share with you a simple wisdom-led model that will help you get curious about how you operate, and give you more wisdom and insight to creating a whole life, that really does align and support all parts of you. From there, your capacity to influence what matters to you most expands, and the world on the outside shifts. That is feminine power, from the inside out.

See you there!

Christine

Join me and one of my beloved mentors and teachers, Pele Rouge, for a "wise woman tea," where we bring the teachings of Earth Wisdom forward to give us a perspective on how to be and move through these intense times so we can thrive, heal, expand and elevate.

Some of what we'll dive into in this session of Feminine Power Time is what earth wisdom is how can these teachings and it tools can help us now.

Some inquiries that emerged and we'll explore through the eyes of earth wisdom is:

• What does it mean to be human? What are the basic rights of humans that honor people and planet?
• And how does that relate to what is really going on now on the planet? And the structures needed to lead us forward?
• How do we BE in relationship with Self, Each Other and Earth?
• What Divine Laws exist to guide us to follow and create a better life? 
• What is the earth trying to show us? What would be wise to pay attention to? 
• What is the path to getting into alignment with yourself?
• How do we get in right relationship with ourselves, with each other and the world? 

Some of the earth wisdom tools we'll share:

• The Medicine Wheel of Restructuring - for uncovering and re-leasing and re-patterning beliefs.
• The Relationship between the Feminine and Masculine energies within us and in the world
• The Medicine Wheel of the Human Parts
• The Wisdom Council  

Wisdom Bytes that came through

• Difference is a great gift. Difference expands.
• To the extent we can make room for difference, we have a much larger palette to create.
• Irritation is a sign you are either being guided a different way or there is something in you that is seeking to be healed.
• Pay attention to what irritates you on the outside world, and seek to understand how it lives within you.

• This is a time of remembering how to be human.

About Wise Woman Teas: These are invitations to join me and a special guest who has spent a lifetime studying and teaching a specific wisdom tradition or realm of experience that can offer us insight, wisdom, perspective, tools to understand ourselves, others and these times... so we can rise to be better more conscious leaders in our lives, relationships, community, organizations, teams and world. 

We always start with the inquiry of how can this wisdom teachings, tradition or experience see a perspective and find wisdom to guide us during this time. We never know exactly where the conversation will go. But by using the power of inquiry, wisdom we can use always emerge. Pour some tea, vino or pelligrino and join us
