Water self love ritual

What does self love mean?

A water self love ritual promotes holistic well being to cleanse and reset your energy.

It starts with the question,  what does self love mean to me?

And reflecting on when and where in the past few days, weeks or even months I have forgotten about myself, giving more to those around me. Taking myself  out of balance?

Theoretically, I love myself no matter what – and I always take whatever time and space is necessary to be fully aware of my body and my senses.

Embracing impermanence is being present and accepting things as they come and go. Yet we have the tendency to cling to some emotions, be they good or bad. Often, we don’t even realise.

Taking the time to just wash off the energy of the past and is the best you can do.

A Water Self Love Ritual

Listen to the wisdom within. Because only you know what you need.

Feel into your body and ask yourself: what do I need right now?

One of my favourite rituals is having a hot bath – a water self love ritual promotes holistic well being.

First, I put some high frequency music to charge the water and I also speak my intention to it.

Second, I add roses, different flowers and different teas (like camomile, lavender, yarrow, rue)

Third, I set the space with candles and light

Fourth, I bring some of my favourite crystals and put them all around and sometimes even in the water

Crystals and water

But be careful, not all crystals are water proof.  For example selenite can dissolve if put in the water. Make sure you read about each crystal you want to have a bath with – check if it’s ok to be placed in the water or just on an altar next to you.

Once I get into the water, I focus on my breath scanning with my attention from the top of my head to my feet and relaxing every part of me that feels tense.

Then I might start singing 🎵 🎶
Let it flow with whatever it comes to you.

Trust only yourself

I’m always asked in my travels, how do you know who to trust?

And the truth is, I trust no one.
I trust myself.

I trust my intuition and my inner world as that’s what’s gonna be reflected outside.

I expect the best out of every interaction and I make sure there is clarity on intention and boundaries.

Like a conscious energetic exchange.

I take no negotiation and stop engaging with people  that want to treat me less well than I deserve. I only want the best.

And the truth is, it’s not about them and I don’t care who gets offended.

This is about how I’m creating my reality through my own relationship with myself.

I’ve got only one rule: How it makes me feel?

I trust my body will communicate with me in case something is off and direct my mind to pay attention.

Going up and forward is the only destination.

Me and my mother

Adina Nicola with Ana NicolaAfter years of disputes and disagreements my mother told me she is proud of me.

I have not heard her say that since I rejected society’s norms and decided to hit the road in the search for my own independent lifestyle.

She was worried that I won’t be safe or not succeed in life and was trying her best to keep me home and find me a husband.

Society places enormous responsibility at the feet of the mother and is quick to blame her for all of her child’s successes or failures in life.

And growing up in a male defined culture that devalues feminine qualities caused me feelings of inadequacy, confusion and inferiority while trying to fit in.

On a cultural level, the established order is one of deeply entrenched patriarchal values, those of dominance and control by the stronger and more powerful male population.

I felt that in order to find my freedom, independence and individuality I had to reject all feminine qualities that were perceived as inferior – thing like being soft, passive, dependent, vulnerable or seductive.

The restrictive context of gender roles and the deep seated sense of female inferiority made it seem that being a mother would always mean to be imprisoned and give up on your own aspirations or goals.

It took me years to realise that my mother was not to blame for the confusion and low self esteem I was experiencing in a culture that glorifies the masculine.

It never occurred to me at the time I was growing up that her frustration and need to control had its roots in the way society treats women.

I closed off large areas of myself and started to compete for mens’ attention while ignoring everything that gave me pleasure so as not to be seen as weak.

But this way, I didn’t learn how to relax, how to nurture myself or how to enjoy life so I was getting burned out.

I’d been sacrificing my relationship with my mother and my sisters and myself to be heroic in a man’s world. It’s time to get back to what’s really important.

That’s why I started The Goddess Calling, a movement that empowers women to embrace their feminine qualities – and it also helps men to understand, protect and value what a woman’s sensibility can bring into society.

Feelings and emotions

Feelings, emotions – what’s the difference?

My feelings are my ascension. There is a difference between emotions and feelings and we have to go through our emotions to get the real taste of our feelings.

I scream, I manifest.

I jump, I teleport.

I let go and I remember.

Nothing can stop me.

Enough resistance – it’s time to take the roller-coaster ride.

Let the emotions take over.

At first will feel hard, it will feel like ‘wtf am I doing? This makes no sense.’

Your emotions are the unprocessed feelings that got stuck in your body because you didn’t allow them to come out at the right time.

Now you’ve let more than enough, days, weeks, months and even years pass by – and you still feel nothing.

You avoid feeling or expressing emotions like it’s the mouth of the lion and still don’t understand that’s just a portal.

I get it, you don’t know what’s gonna happen. It’s scary, you don’t want to negotiate with your inner demons – can they just go away?

I don’t want you to think that I’m being hard on yourself but truth is you have to face them. They won’t go away of their own accord.

But the resistance is still there, maybe even stronger…

What are you resisting ?

Oh well, let me tell you the answer:

A world of unlimited possibilities!

A world of magic!

A world of ecstatic pleasure!

I’m opening three  spots to work with me personally, to help you express your emotions, and break down your resistance.
