Welcome back to the Feminine Power Podcast. And
today I want to share something really, really
special, something that is so simple, something
that is so transformative that I truly believe
this one thing has been the main contribution
to my own success, to my own fulfillment and
to the success of most people out there who are
happy and content and are creating impactful
things for the world. And today my aim is to
share it with you, to share why it works so well,
why it can change your life, why anyone can do
it, why it's so important for anyone who wants
to manifest, to connect to their body, to be
a better lover, to be a better partner, to be
a better business person, to live a life that
is full of connection and meaning. You are listening
to the Feminine Power Podcast, your portal into
embodiment, feminine awakening, and the true
power of your life force, sexual energy. I'm
your host Maria Grenina, founder of FUEL, a global
platform for feminine embodiment, and a coach
for women ready to live with magnetism, love,
and full aliveness. If you're ready to rise,
you're in the right place. Follow the show and
let's begin. In this episode, you're going to
learn about a daily practice, what it is, how
to create it, what kind of daily practices are
out there, what works and how to make sure that
you can commit to it and how it actually changes
everything. Perhaps you already have a daily
practice and in this case, I am so proud of you.
You can stay and listen to this episode to learn
about various daily practices that are out there.
Maybe you want to up your practice. Maybe you
want to change it. Maybe you want to stay fluid
and flexible with it and just learn what is out
there and what works. This episode builds upon
the previous episode where I've shared tantric
principles that are truly life -changing and
that help us live fulfilling lives. and always
find meaning and connection. Feel free to go
back to that episode and listen to that one first
if you would like to receive a bit more background
of what is it that we are talking about here
or just stay here if you're keen to learn about
a daily practice and start your daily practice
with the tools that I'm going to share here.
Perhaps if you're listening to this podcast you're
already interested in embodiment, in sexual energy,
in feminine energy, in inner balance and fulfillment,
how to walk through life with safety within,
with feeling comfortable in your skin, with being
magnetic, with being sexy. With all of these
things, again, it is a daily practice that makes
a difference. Quite often in this modern world,
we like quick fixes. We like straightforward,
effective solutions. And even in the self -development
journey, we may choose to go to and search for
one experience that is going to give us exactly
what we want. For example, in situations when
people can't afford certain things like big retreats
or big workshops or very expensive trainings
and courses, whether it be because they can't
afford it financially or because they can't afford
it time -wise. We can be like, oh, well, I'm
not there yet to allow myself this next level
in my self -development. And we create a story
that, okay, one day when I will be ready, when
I will have enough money, when I will have enough
time, I'm going to do that one thing. I'm going
to buy that expensive coaching package or I'm
going to go to that expensive retreat or get
that one training. And that is when I'm going
to start changing my life deeper. And for now,
I'm just going to get that, work hard to get
that. And this way, we are really sabotaging
our own growth. We are telling ourselves that
it has to be difficult. It has to be hard. There
is one fix that we need to get to and we need
to work hard for. And this is not the reality.
This is just our own brains and our conditioning
sabotaging our direction. This is not true at
all. Retreats, expensive coaching packages, trainings,
workshops. are incredible tools and they can
help to get us somewhere a little faster. It
can provide us a toolkit and a container and
necessary support to learn and to embody next
levels of our own development. But they are not
a quick fix and neither do they work without
a daily practice. Yeah. So even if you decide
to invest into an effective self -development
tool or an experience, it's still not going to
work without a daily practice. A daily practice
is still something that can be in place. On the
opposite, if you decide that, okay, now it's
not my time for a big investment, whether it
be to money or time in this area of my life,
but... I can commit to a daily practice. I can
already show myself that I'm committed to this
path. I can already start changing. Then everything
is going to change. Then everything that you
need is going to start coming into your life
naturally because you've made that commitment.
And a daily practice does not require a lot of
time or money. It is something you can start
now. You can commit to now. And you don't need
anything for it. You can maybe add some support
to start this kind of practice. I will share
what you can do for it. It can be as simple as
committing to writing three gratitudes every
day. Yeah. So I'm just sharing before I go deeper
how simple this can be. Regardless of whether
you're currently investing deeply into your self
-development work, or if you're just curious,
but really want to make a change. want to live
a more connected, fulfilling, meaningful life,
want to manifest the next exchange. One thing
you can't avoid doing in this way with these
intentions is a daily practice. The way you show
up for yourself each day is the most important
thing. Not what you know, what you're learning,
not what you're reading, not how many tools you've
collected, how many trainings you've done, how
much you're paying for your coach, how much you
are paying for workshops or how many workshops
you are attending. None of that really matters
unless you put things into practice, unless you
have a daily practice, unless you have something
that grounds you and shows to your body every
day that you're on this path. It is how often
you come home to yourself, to your energy, to
your body, to your breath and to your intention,
what truly matters, what creates a foundation
for everything in your life. Not enough people
out there connect to themselves every day. And
maybe this is a problem with our current society.
We are chasing and pushing and thinking that
there is this one thing that we need to do to
fix everything. And then there is the next thing
and the next thing and the next thing. And we
don't do what really matters. So just to stop,
reflect, connect. and therefore alchemize what
needs to be alchemized. In this episode, I'll
walk you through different types of daily practices
from embodiment to breath work, gratitude journaling
to general journaling to simple meditations,
so many things that you can do. And I'm also
going to share practical tools that are, I find,
super helpful to ensure that you can actually
commit to a daily practice. It doesn't have to
be difficult. In fact, if you create a very difficult
heart to execute daily practice and there is
only one type of a daily practice that you do,
it can be difficult for you to truly commit and
to truly do it. So in this episode, I'll share
tools that are going to help you have more flexibility.
so that you can truly feed it in into your life,
even if you have a really busy life. So if you've
been feeling a little disconnected or maybe a
little bit overwhelmed or you're now really going
after a big change in your life and you're keen
to put your energy towards that, then this episode
is your invitation to come back to the small
things that truly matter, the sacred daily moments
that truly do change everything. So let's dive
in. What is a daily practice? It is not something
complicated. It is as simple as doing something
meaningful, mindful, intentional every day. In
my experience, it is best to do your first thing
in the morning. I'll share with you why, but
you will always find your own perfect timing.
The perfect timing is the timing to which you
can commit, which you won't skip. And for me,
it is a morning. And there are also other reasons
why morning is the perfect time and we'll get
into it. A daily practice doesn't have to look
a particular way. It can be made of various components
and you can craft it for yourself. And it is
your sacred space. It is basically a moment in
your day, even just five minutes, where you return
to yourself, where you check in with your energy.
don't necessarily have to even alter it, you
check in with your energy and you connect to
your intention or you set an intention. A daily
practice helps you to cultivate awareness, to
stay intentional, to stay connected and to remember
who you are and where you are going. Where a
lot of people fail is that they commit to a daily
practice that is like a 40 -minute meditation
every day. And then life goes on and things happen
and they don't manage to commit to it or do this
every day. And then things fade and they stop
doing any kind of daily practice. This is not
sustainable. So let's look at a daily practice
as an intentional space of reconnection with
yourself. It does not mean a 40 -minute meditation.
It just means an intentional space of daily reconnection
with yourself. And the timing of it can be different
and it can vary. So what are the components of
a daily practice? Let's now break it down into
components from which you can then craft your
own unique daily practice or a number of your
own unique daily practices that you can choose
to do on a certain day. Basically create your
own toolkit, your own box of your daily practices
that you can commit to and pick and choose from.
And the first component is timing. In terms of
timing, a daily practice can be from five minutes
a day up to an hour, two hours. It really depends
on where you are currently in life and what you
are looking for to commit to. In this episode,
I really want to speak about something that is
really flexible and achievable for people because
that's the most important thing when we begin
this journey or when we recommit to this journey
and when we want to see a lasting change that
is coming from consistency and real commitment.
So I want to share about shorter practices and
flexible toolkits of daily practices that you
can have. My recommendation would be to have
a variety of practices that are between 5 minutes
and 30 minutes that you can do every day. Yeah,
so on the days when you are really busy, maybe
you have a morning flight, maybe you generally
have a really busy life, especially in the mornings.
Maybe you're a mother with a lot of children
that you need to bring to school, or maybe you
have early morning shifts, or maybe whatever
is going on. You don't have to have a reason.
Maybe you have a busy life, and five minutes
every morning is what you can really spend these
days. No shame around it. It works in the perfect
way. If you have a five -minute daily practice,
it's absolutely perfect as long as you do it
every day. So my recommendation would be to have
a toolkit, a few practices from five to 30 minutes
long. And on really busy days, You do a five
minute practice. And on the days when you have
a bit more time, a bit more space, you want to
go a little deeper, you do 15 minutes, 20 minutes,
30 minutes. Yeah. And when you have a variety,
say you have three practices, one five minute,
one 15 minute, and one 30 minute, then you can
pick and choose depending on what's going on
in your life on a certain day and still do your
practice, even if you are really, really busy.
This five minute practice is essential to have
if you want to stick to your commitment. Next
is when do we do the practice? My recommendation.
To all of my amazing clients and to everyone
out there who is just starting out the practice,
for example, is to do a practice in the morning.
I personally always do my practice in the morning
for many, many, many years. I do my morning practice,
be it the meditation, be it a dance, be it self
-massage, be it anything that I commit to, be
it journaling, because the way we start our days.
The way we wake up, the way we spend the first
minutes of our days really shapes our energy
for the day. And a lot of people these days wake
up and first thing they do, they look at their
phone. And this sets ourselves into a reactive
state. We look at our phone, check in messages,
notifications, emails, and our entire energy
becomes about reacting to what happened, reacting
toward our phone. says, instead of shaping our
reality, instead of setting an intention and
creating our days from our intention, from elevated
energy, from higher frequency, we start our day
with a reaction to what happened to us, to notifications,
to messages. This is not really a perfect day
to start your day if you are on a path of self
-development and if you want to create something
intentionally in your life. The biggest recommendation
here would be to commit to not turn on your phone
for at least the first 30 minutes of your day.
So that you don't react, you don't check, you
don't expose yourself to technology, you don't
use your sacred time in the morning where it's
a perfect opportunity to shape your days and
then shape your weeks and then shape your entire
life in this kind of state, in the reactive state.
And instead of what you do, you commit to not
turn on your phone, not look at your phone for
the first 30 minutes of your day. In fact, another
recommendation here would be not to sleep with
your phone, not to be exposed to its frequency
during the night and rather turn it off and leave
it to charge in another room in your house and
you decide not to turn on your phone and wake
up allowing yourself to be present as you wake
up to check in with your body and to do your
daily practice then and then your daily practice
is going to continue shaping your life in a positive
way. I really love work of Joy Dispenza, and
if you want to learn more about the state of
your brain, the state of your brain waves, and
how to work with your brain, and how to work
with your morning brain specifically to really
set intentions and even manifest, you can Google
his work and find his research -backed findings
around a daily meditation, around daily practice,
and around daily practice specifically in the
morning. So, Dr. Joy Dispenza talks about how
when we wake up, our brain is naturally in a
theta brainwave state, which is the same state
we are in during deep meditation or hypnosis.
So, when we wake up, we enter this state and
it is a perfect time for our subconscious mind
to receive suggestions and to believe. a positive
manifestation that you are bringing about or
to a negative manifestation. That's why it's
really important in the morning to start as an
intentional practice because your morning is
the most powerful time to plant intentions, to
plant suggestions into your brain, to visualize
and to shift your energy before the outside world
starts interacting with you and giving you other
kind of suggestions. That's why it's so important
not to look at your phone at that time and allow
this state to rather serve you to manifest a
positive change in your life. So if you do your
practice first thing in the morning, even for
five minutes, you're literally setting the tone
for your entire day and your days shape your
entire life. You're saying to yourself in the
universe. This is it. This is who I am becoming
Whatever you're saying to yourself in those first
minutes, of course You can wake up and go to
the bathroom and brush your teeth and have a
glass of water But as long as you don't look
at your phone, you don't let yourself to start
Interacting into your doing self you continue
just being you continue staying in this in between
space in between, kind of just out of sleep,
really grounded, really connected. And then you
go and you sit down and you do your practice.
This is going to make a huge difference in your
life. And when this becomes a habit, your entire
life starts to shift and you live with intention
and you really start seeing how your intention
shapes your reality. So, I suggest that you do
your daily practice in the morning. And if you
want more science -backed information about it,
you want to really, really study these concepts
around manifestation and brainwaves and theta
waves and practice is so important and why meditation
works, I suggest you look into the work of Dr.
Joey Dispenza. He's incredible and maybe you
already are practicing with his findings. Now,
what kind of practices can be in your toolkit?
Let's start with five -minute options. So your
five -minute option can be you can wake up and
think about three things you're grateful for.
You can close your eyes and in your mind visualize
those three things you're grateful for and expand
the sensations and feelings of gratitude through
your body for five minutes. You can do a gratitude
meditation. Another option is to journal for
five minutes and write three things down that
you're grateful for. Another option is to do
five minutes of breath work. You can learn a
few exercises from Pranayama and a few breathing
patterns that you like and do five minutes of
breath to connect to your body. Another option.
If you feel energized, if you feel like you want
to really get into your body in the morning,
you can dance for five minutes. Put on a song
and dance. You can also meditate on your heart
and breathe into your heart. Deep long breaths,
inhaling through your nose and exhaling through
your mouth for five minutes with an intention
to awaken your heart and awaken love. You can
also do that with your lower belly, with your
womb space. with your sexual energy center and
activate this first center, your root chakra,
your space of grounding of safety and activate
the second chakra, your sacral and activate the
sexual energy, creative energy in your body through
intention, just breathing into that space and
mindfully connecting to it. You can find your
other options, whatever you can do for five minutes
to connect to yourself and feel grounded in your
body. And of course you can pronounce out loud
your intention for the day. How do you want to
feel today? How do you want to show up in your
life today? You can write it down or pronounce
it out loud. And on the most, on the busiest
days, say you have an early morning flight, wake
up, sit down, put on and edge that frequency
music or have no music and just be for five minutes.
Breathe and be. and meditate. Just be. Maybe
you don't even have an intention to meditate.
Just be, sit down for five minutes and breathe
as you wake up. And feel free to find your own
version of a five -minute practice. These are
just suggestions. As long as it helps you to
ground and set an intention for the day, it works.
Next, what about 10, 15, 20 minutes practices?
You can, again, choose to do the practices that
we've just discussed, those that were for five
minutes, just do them for 10, 15, 20 minutes.
Or you can now play with tools that require a
little bit more time, such as, for example, self
-massage. You could prepare a natural oil like
coconut oil or any other natural oil that is
good for your skin. Make sure to research it
and make sure that it's natural and good for
your skin and you don't have any allergies. And
you can spend 10 to 20 minutes massaging your
body. You wake up and you take some oil. You
put it onto your skin. without a goal to like,
I'll just massage and moisturize my skin. There
is no goal. You're just connecting to your body
and slowly tuning in into sensations, into your
feelings and adding sensuality and pleasure to
the process and therefore honoring your body,
giving love to your body and starting your day
with this feeling of self -love. and honoring
of your vessel of life. This is what you can
do. It's a beautiful practice. And especially
on the days when you need to feel magnetic, when
you want to be in your feminine, when you want
to feel sexy, this is a very powerful practice.
So adding this to your toolkit can be really
helpful. Just mindfully, with intention, with
love, massaging yourself. Another practice you
can do is nonlinear movement. So a completely
intuitive movement. You can close your eyes.
and maybe prepare a nice playlist for yourself.
So put on some music and for at least 10 minutes,
up to 20 minutes, you can also do it up to 40
minutes and you can move intuitively, maybe on
the yoga mat or on a carpet for 10 to 15 to 20
minutes and allow yourself to shake, to yarn,
to breathe, to exhale loudly. This practice can
help you to really connect to your body, energize
yourself, release any tension and stress from
the previous night, from the previous days, and
to reset, to reset your energy and be fresh.
And then in the end of this practice, you can
set an intention, you can come to stillness and
set an intention for your day. Here, when you
have 10 to 20 minutes, you can also do a deeper
breath work session. So you can try something
like Wim Hof method. I definitely have benefited
from it in moments when I needed to energize
myself for the day. But of course, look into
any issues around your own physicality that can
come with anything like holotropic breath work.
Make sure to consult your doctor if necessary.
But this is just another option. You can connect
and practice like Wim Hof breathing when you
can and want to really energize yourself. And
this is also where you can add deeper meditations.
Sometimes you can find, for example, Dr. Joy
Dispenza meditation on YouTube, or you can use
our own guided practices inside field membership,
which are more about you connecting to your body
and connecting to your feminine energy or magnetism
and your sexual energy, and have guided practices
that help you to set specific intentions. This
is basically why we created field membership.
so that you can have a library of five to 30
minute practices. Sweet Spot is 10 to 20 minutes
where you can be guided through this process
and have diversity and variety of guided practices
like this. This is where you can also find affirmations
that you just want to listen to. and just stay
seated and listen to meditations and affirmations
that you want to embody. There are lots of free
resources out there on the internet. And again,
something you can find inside film membership
that we guide for you. This is also a enough
time, 10 to 20 minutes window, where you can
practice deeper journaling. You can start with
writing three gratitudes, what you're grateful
for. Then you can write three things that you
are excited about today. And this helps you to
amplify this excitement energy and as a result,
help you to magnetize more of these amazing things
that you're excited about. And then you can write
your intention for the day and what kind of feelings
you want to feel today, what kind of feelings
you want to invite into your body. So that can
be your practice as well. As you can see, there
are quite a few things that you can choose from.
And you can just commit to the fact that you
have a daily practice and then you choose every
day, whether it be five minute practice or 10
to 15 minute practice, and what kind of practice
you want to have today once you have this toolkit.
And then the third type, which is a longer practice,
around 30 minutes. But any practice that they
describe here, that is 30 minutes, can take you
deeper if it's longer. If it's 40 minutes, if
it's one hour, if there are days when you want
to have some sort of deeper ritual and you feel
like you need a deeper ritual, this is what you
can choose to do. You can have a self -pleasure
practice and self -pleasure really requires at
least 30 minutes, especially if you're a woman.
This is not something we want to rush. And for
the days that you need a deeper level of self
-connection, of self -healing, of self -love,
this is what you can choose to do. You can create
a space for yourself as you wake up. You can
maybe light a candle. You can take some nice
oil and gently massage your entire body with
oil. Connect to yourself, massage your breasts,
your face, your lower belly. all of your body,
your inner thighs and your genitals, and always
an intention to give yourself love, to give yourself
pleasure. And you can then give yourself a yoni
massage, you can go inside of yourself, of your
beautiful yoni with a wand, with an egg, with
anything like that, as long as you stay present,
intentional and connected to your breath and
to your body. And you do this as a self -love
ritual without a force or a chase of orgasm.
then this can be a beautiful morning practice,
a really powerful morning practice that sets
you for the day so that you can have magnetic
energy and have a lot of self -love within you.
This is not to practice if you've never done
this before, even if you have a lot of an integrated
trauma. Maybe you would like some support with
it and deeper study of this kind of intentional
self -pleasure. But if you feel strong and if
it's something that attracts you and you don't
have fear around it, then this is something to
definitely integrate and try. And this can be
a really beautiful practice. And I would say
40 minutes is much better. 30 minutes is okay,
but you really want to do this a little bit longer.
And on the days when you're like, okay, I feel
great. I want to be magnetic. I only have 30
minutes. Then you can still really do that. And
it's really beautiful. Daily practice is what
truly transforms inspiration into embodiment.
It is how this path moves from something you
know to something you truly live. This is why
we created Feel, a platform where you can access
daily embodiment sessions, tantric meditations
and feminine energy and sexual energy activations
to nourish your journey day by day. Join the
film membership to start your practice and sign
up for our newsletter to stay close to our offerings,
our courses, events and so much more. You'll
find all the links in the episode description.
Another 30 -minute practice could be dance and
movement and the mix of dance, movement, meditation
and intention setting. So on the days when you
feel like you need deeper connection and a reset,
you can wake up. And you can first journal your
gratitudes and your intention for the day. And
then with these intentions and gratitude, you
can move your body and dance and think these
intentions and gratitudes, and then expand the
feelings in your body that you feel when you
think of these gratitudes, when you bring them
to your mind, to your body mind, and move these
gratitude and move these intentions through your
body with dance, with nonlinear movement, with
breath. And just creating for yourself, say,
like a 30 -minute playlist that you put on when
you start journaling. And then you know once
it finishes and you hear the last song, you know
that you want to now slow down so you don't watch
the time, but rather use the playlist as your
source of timing. And then you finish in stillness
and then you set and reconnect to your intention
again. And you start the day on this really high
note. Super powerful. So now let's review. You
know that your daily practice is a space for
you to set an intention, to stay connected and
to continue this path. And it can be from five
minutes to 30 minutes and sometimes longer when
you can, but you don't have to make such a commitment.
It is important to fully accept and appreciate
the fact that five minutes is enough. When you're
busy, five minutes is enough. And in fact, if
you always do five minutes, It is also really
beautiful and transformational and will change
your life for the better. So accepting that and
knowing you can play, you can pick and choose
and then creating your own toolkit, trying what
works for you, be it the meditation, be it dance,
be it non -linear movement, be it a guided meditation
from YouTube, be it a guided practice from field
membership portal, be it something that you create
yourself, maybe you have a playlist for your
practices, maybe you like to work with silence.
having a self -pleasure practice in your tool
if you feel strong. And yeah, crafting and choosing
what works for you. And one thing that is constant
in this entire way, in this entire journey is
a commitment to at least five minutes a day.
And then doing this in the morning is really
powerful. And if you can commit to doing this
in the morning, you will see how then you'll
Life is really different. Your days are really
different because you set an intention each day.
And then if you ever miss your practice, you'll
also notice the effects of missing your practice.
Yeah, it is powerful when you start observing
the changes and start really seeing the benefits.
So I hope this helps you to craft your daily
practice and to make this life changing commitment.
Remembering that it is a small things. It is
small things, it's details. that really shape
how we live, that really shape our energies.
