MOTHER-DAUGHTER CONNECTION
What are you
nurturing, creating, birthing?
WORDS JULIE ELLSON
Y
ou’re either from a certain generation or you’re the daughter of it. The mothers, grandmothers, aunts – all daughters – the women who have passed on their influence down through the genetic line to you via your upbringing – this has been shaped by what’s gone before. Subconscious programming becomes your beliefs and how you view and interact with life. Generations of women experiencing life have lived them so differently, haven’t they? It’s meant different directions, choices, compromises, either with or without a sense of empowerment. You might be able to view the women that have gone before you with appreciation. It seems the world is ready – to defy the old conventions, the clichés are being thrown aside, the ‘glass ceilings’, accepted norms – the experience of women is becoming more empowered to express themselves, to go for what they want. There are no ‘permissions’ needed anymore. Think of the archetypal roles we
women go through in life: birth ~ nurturing ~ growth ~ creation ~ intuition. Whatever that means for you and your life, you may be using the same energies. What are you nurturing, creating, birthing? Are you creating your experience? Do you feel connected to your path in life? These are the questions that hopefully you’ve been taught to ask of yourself. It’s about nurturing yourself to unfold. We have all experienced the same – albeit different versions – of subconscious programming. The stereotypes from a society at the time that didn’t ‘allow’ a woman to do what she wanted to do. Opportunities never given. All those suppressed visions of life potentially never fulfilled! I think when you can view yourself on your individual path, you can then appreciate the perspective of what past generations have gone through. So with what’s been passed down to you, subconsciously or consciously – you’ve either been taught to settle for what comes to you, or break the
mould! I was lucky to have a mother who encouraged me to be whatever I wanted to be! But unless you have no subconscious limitations causing conflicts within, it’s not an automatic thing. To be empowered, is to learn to trust yourself and develop your individuality. Creating yourself is a continual exercise – to connect to your power, to discover your uniqueness. It’s clearing the programming of gender roles, the freedom to ‘be’, embodying a strong sense of self. This is why I particularly work with women; to bring about more balance, not only to women, but to the shared experience of women; how we support each other through our shared journeys, to acknowledge we are all connected. Paths are rarely individual – they intersect and influence all around us. Evolve the stereotypes passed on! Connect to your empowered self. And thank the women that have gone before you. www.healingkinesiology.com.au
