Showing them I have boundaries and that I honour myself by explaining that I need to sit down and have a proper meal before I bring them anything else.

Whether you’re ready to receive your partner or to receive the partner you already have more deeply, this is the space where we make it happen.

By taking a moment to be grateful, feel grateful and express this gratitude, she buys herself a moment to really take in and receive what he gave her.

I’m also becoming acutely aware of the ways in which I do or don’t express my gratitude - or even feel it for that matter.

What if you started noticing what they are doing even half as much as you pay attention to what they are not?

The healthy expression of the masculine wants to give and provide, this is what it is designed to do. It’s the essence of the masculine.

Remember on your journey to receivership, not to tip the scale all towards complacency and inaction.

And while some moments ask for my surrender, and to find the joy in the chaos, the bigger theme of my life is that my needs matter.

To expand your capacity to receive requires you to notice how your body responds when someone wants to give and do, for you.

We all want to receive, heck we may even think we’re doing so. But when we stop and get still, we start to notice all the ways we close ourselves to receiving.

If giving is a more masculine energy, and receiving is a feminine one - taking feels quite masculine, too. It implies an action, a reaching out, a grasping, an almost desperate act.

Women are in their truest power, for themselves and really for the world, when they are in the position of receiving.
