Sympathetic= fast, friction, tense, performing, closed down, shallow breathing, not emotional attuned    Parasympathetic= slow, present, open, attuned, emotionally safe, deep breathing  Do women have the courage to ask their heart and their body what they need to feel safe and open in the bedroom? 

In this episode I reflect on the marriage dynamics showcased in season 3 of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.... they are so brave in sharing their marriage stories in the hopes to help others! I love psychology + marriage, so this episode includes deep psychological reflections about betrayal, lies, and childhood trauma in marriage. 

If we want to live an awakened life from our Heart/Soul, we have to learn how to fully feel our scariest body sensations, like fear or anxiety, and to be safe within the feeling. This is fundamental repairing of how to be safe within our own bodies. 

Women are the "oracle of the relationship" because she feels everything in her marriage. When she learns how to share her truth with softness and love, it is an invitation into greater depth for the man, which either scares him, or matures him.  Email any questions to: wisewomendiaries@gmail.com  I highly recommend David Deida's books: "The Way of the Superior Man" and "Dear Lover" 

No matter how much shadow work and therapy a woman does.... she will always test her man and have emotional storms. This podcast relays the work of David Deida, from "The Way of the Superior Man" and "Dear Lover." 

If a marriage is not bringing both people closer to God/Love, there will be pain present.

I have lived through many years of a wounded marriage and now I am experiencing an awakened marriage, with the same man. Healing is possible. In this episode I explain what each "type" of marriage is and how having a marriage that feels like heaven on earth is attainable when both people say YES. Please email wisewomendiaries@gmail.com with any questions! I love to hear from the audience!  I highly recommend the books by David Deida: "The Way of the Superior Man" and "Dear Lover."

This episode is for women in a season of "waiting" for their man to wake up to their heart, their soul. I love getting questions for listeners! Please email wisewomendiaries@gmail.com with any questions that can be addressed on future episodes! I highly recommend the books The Way of the Superior Man by David Deida (for men) and Dear Lover by David Deida (for women).

The invitation of the Wise Women Diaries podcast is to see the sacred in everyday life. 

We are stepping into the Era of the Soul, The Heart- God.

In this continuation, I explain the patterns of a mature female and mature male in an intimate relationship. When a woman is in her radiance, it inspires a man to become even more present and provide and give to her more. When a man takes action in deep integrity and purpose, it inspires a woman to open and soften even more. It is the perfect design of sacred union- inspiring each other to mature greater into their biological design.  I reference David Deida and Sydney Poulton's class Reclamation wisewomendiaries@gmail.com 

Continuing from "Part 1: The Body Always Tells the Truth," I discuss the 18 year long journey between my husband and I through the feminine and masculine stages of maturity via the framework of David Deida. I also discuss why women are so bothered when men are distracted by their phone, social media, video gaming etc.  I highly recommend the books "Dear Lover" and "The Way of the Superior Man" by David Deida.

This episode is what I have learned in the past decade, but especially the past seven months. The homecoming back to my body... trusting her language as information about my truth in the moment because the body never lies, but we often try to silence and repress her.... until we cannot anymore. I also discuss the life changing book Dear Lover by David Deida and how it has helped my marriage... learning how to share the ache and truth of my heart with my spouse.  Get in touch at wisewomendiaries@gmail.com
