The Transformative Effect of Balancing Your Masculine and Feminine Energy

Some time ago, I discussed the idea that one of the reasons why we are now experiencing so much strife in the world is because the balance between masculine and feminine is seriously off.

Before I knew how masculine and feminine energy impacted the body, I would often question why when I got ailments or niggles in my body, it was often on my left-hand side.

Through my research and yoga teacher training, I came to understand that one of the main reasons was due to the fact I had an imbalance within my masculine and feminine energy. Predominantly my feminine energy.

However, not only was my body impacted by my own feminine energy imbalance, but also the imbalance within the rest of the world.

Just as a quick heads up: The left side of the brain is masculine, but the left side of the body represents the feminine. The right-side of the brain is feminine but the right side of the body represents male.

As you know, everything is connected. When there is any type of imbalance in the world, there will also be an imbalance within humans. Especially the Sensitive ones.

Empaths pick up, and are affected by, all kinds of energy. We pick up on the mass energy around us.

As you’ll already have seen for yourself, the feminine energy in the world has been askew, in a massive way, for many years.

What Does This Imbalance Look Like?

One sign that the feminine energies are out of alignment in the world are the heightened erratic emotions and anxiety that we have seen for several years in both men and women. When experienced regularly, these types of emotions are incredibly harmful to both body and mind.

Balancing feminine energy is not purely about finding fairness and equality of the sexes. We are all made up of masculine and feminine energy, it is about everyone balancing the two. The Ying and the Yang.

Noticing Feminine Energy Imbalances

One of the first symptoms of a feminine energy imbalance within yourself, is the left nostril being blocked or stuffy. However, having general pains or physical problems through the left side of the body is also a clue.

If you are an Empath, chances are your feminine energy will be a bit skewwhiff through emotional contagion. When there is an energetic imbalance, in any area of the populace, that energy ricochets out and is taken on by us Empaths.

Some signs that you have a feminine energy imbalance are:

Erratic Emotions
Low Energy
Bad Relationships
Zero Motivation
Inability to Focus
Feeling Constantly Insecure and Nervous

However, you could also be experiencing a dominant masculine energy. We are all impacted differently by energy. An excess of masculine energy is often seen in aggression and being confrontational, remaining overly critical or egotistical, and even working more robotically than normal.

Determine Your Energetic Dominance

A quick way to determine whether your masculine and feminine is more dominant, is to block your right nostril with your thumb and breathe through the left, now swap over and block the left nostril and breathe through the right.

Which side was the dominant?

If your left nostril was dominant, it means the right feminine hemisphere of your brain is more active.

If it was the right nostril, that was dominant, then your male left brain is more active.

These can change throughout the day. So, try the above exercise a few times to confirm.

If you find your nostrils are often blocked or painful, without any apparent cause (i.e., cold, allergies or other irritants), it could be a sign that both your masculine and feminine energy are off-balance.

Transformation Through Balance

Now, before we look at two easy ways to find energetic balance, let’s take a quick look at the benefits of balancing feminine energy.

Emotions Stabilise
Focus Improves
Energy Increases
More Motivation
Boosted Confidence
Attracting the Right People

Let’s take a closer look at what this entails …

Balanced Emotions

By balancing your feminine energy, you will find your emotions become less erratic and wayward. You will become calmer and more peaceful.

Better Focus

If you might describe yourself as being scatter-brained, when your energy is back in alignment your focus naturally improves.

Increased Energy

Energetic imbalances, in an Empath, often means you become like a sponge for other people’s emotions. This in itself is incredibly draining. When you realign, your physical energy improves and vitality returns.

More Motivation

When your feminine energy is balanced, you automatically find that you are more motivated to get things done. Especially all those things you had previously put on the backburner.

Increased Confidence

Increased confidence is something that comes as part and parcel of the rebalancing process. Basically, your self-belief increases, you are less self-critical, and you feel happier within your own skin.

You Attract the Right People

Like attracts like. When you are out of alignment, you attract people whose energy match this frequency. Get rebalanced, and the right people will appear into your life.

Ok, so now you know what the benefits are, let’s take a look at two easy ways to realign.

The first one is to start daily Earthing, also known as grounding. If you don’t already practice Earthing, there is no better time to start. I have a video and an article explaining the benefits for an Empath. If really is one of those things you have to try for yourself.

The next one to try is Nadi Shohana. Also, known as alternate nostril breathing. This is a simple relaxing breathing technique that is excellent for calming anxiety and soothing the emotions. In fact, it has many benefits, but it is mostly used to rebalance your masculine and feminine energy.

Here’s how it is done.

Balancing Masculine and Feminine Energy

Sit comfortably with your back straight and eyes closed
Place the tip of the right thumb on the edge of the right nostril and the right, ring finger hovering over the left nostril.
Close off the right nostril, with your thumb, & inhale through the left nostril for 3 counts
Close the left nostril, with your ring finger, & exhale for 3 counts
Keep the left finger in place & Inhale through the right nostril for 3 counts.
Close the right nostril, with your thumb & and exhale through the left nostril…
This was one round of Nadi Shodhana. Do 9 more
Build up to at least 20 to help balance you masculine & feminine energy

Transformation

After a lifetime of research into self-care and healing, I have come to the conclusion that, when it comes to healing and/or rebalancing, it is always best to try the simple natural options before anything else. Both of the above cost you nothing, and they don’t take much time to do. Yet they come with incredible benefits for the body and mind. And that makes them priceless.

Hope all is keeping well in your corner.

Until next time.
