You've been fooled

You’ve been fooled. We all have. You’ve been convinced your dreams can’t possibly be yours.

“Why do women find it honorable to dismiss ourselves? Why do we decided that denying our longing is the responsible thing to do? Why do we believe that what will thrill and fulfill us will hurt other people? Why do we mistrust ourselves so completely? Here’s why: because our culture was built upon and benefits from the control of women.” - Untamed, Glennon Doyle

It has literally been a survival tactic to not go after our dreams. Our womxn ancestors were burnt at the stake for showing their power, for expressing themselves fully. It’s no wonder why we stay in formation. We were trained to. Our amygdala’s were trained to. Our bodies took the cues, to shut down anytime anything gets “too good” that we can’t hold it all energetically.

Anytime we can connect with our bodies, it is a reclamation. That’s why embodiment work is so important. If you feel disconnected from your body, from feeling, from sensation. Let’s get you plugged back into the matrix of pleasure, not this patriarchal matrix numbing you out and lying to you, telling you you can’t have what you want.
