Femininity is a skill. A skill that can go away if repressed enough. Women are more badass than ever these days, but also more masculine than ever. We have to be, to keep up in these competitive spaces and essentially succeed. However, when we take off our matching pantsuits at the end of the day, for some there is a slight longing for that soft life and energy we have neglected all day. There is a time to be the alpha and a time to simply be feminine. This guide will help you when it’s time to embrace that feminine side.
Embrace Authenticity And Self-Awareness
Explore your authentic self, celebrating your passions, strengths, and quirks. Embrace your femininity by expressing yourself freely, whether it’s through fashion, art, or your chosen field. By nurturing this connection with your true essence, you’ll unlock and tune into a feminine power that is uniquely yours. The more you embrace your passions, the more secure and confident you will be and therefore appear to others. Confidence is key.
Embody Sensuality
Revel in your sensuality, embracing your feminine allure. Explore your personal style, experiment with scents, makeup, and fashion. Prioritize self-care rituals that make you feel and look your best. Don’t be afraid to dress up, wear heels, and rock a soft glam. Maybe let a man hold the door for you or accept help from others. Change your body language to move about in a mysterious and soft manner. You don’t always have to be the loudest in the room or fight for a place. Women have to be so strong and put together most of the time, it’s okay to tap into your softness and welcome the benefits that brings.
Be Receptive And Giving
Let yourself receive. Whether it’s physical gifts, compliments, or simply energy from the universe. You are deserving and should behave like you are aware of that. Not only that, but you are also giving to others. You give compliments, you are helpful in many ways, and are extremely kind. Make others feel good, and they will do the same for you.
Embrace Vulnerability: Strength in Softness
Contrary to popular belief, vulnerability is not a weakness but a testament to your strength and authenticity. Embrace your vulnerability and soft side. Women are often in autopilot and protection mode so it is rare to simply allow yourself to be vulnerable, to break down, or even to ask for help. Allowing yourself to be open, honest, and raw allows you to shed those societal expectations and stereotypes that are placed upon so many women. Deciding to embrace your emotions regardless will help you tap into your feminine energy.
All in all, being a woman and being feminine means different things to everyone. As long as you are showing up as your best self and are happy with the result, keep doing you. Good luck!
