Nurture Your Inner Goddess

EP#190 - Nurture Your Inner Goddess - An Interview with Author, Theater Critic, Mosaic Artist and Educator, Dawn Reno Langley.

I opened my interview with Dawn with the question, “Why focus on the Goddess?”

Dawn’s response centered around the fact that because she wasn’t seeing or hearing anything about goddesses anywhere else, except in her yoga studio, she felt the need to begin journaling about the goddess. Which then led to her writing about the Divine Feminine.  

Before long she began her research and expanded on her journal writing to create her book, “You Are Divine, A Search for the Goddess in all of Us.” Her research took her down many rabbit holes, as she describes it, and through the digging and excavating she uncovered many ancient stories about the Divine Feminine. Including the fact that herbal medicine and the practicing of ancient medicine began mostly with women. And later as medicine evolved, the practice of it became dominated by men.

Dawn and I share many of the same views and in discussing her book we both went off on some tangents that made for a lively conversation.  The dominating theme of this podcast was the feminine versus the masculine.  And how now in present day the feminine is beginning to take center stage and gaining dominance over the masculine. The balance of the two is really what is needed in the world right now. 

As we see the masculine energy breaking down, the feminine energy is taking hold and I feel Dawn’s book is coming just at the right moment in time. The book is filled with empowering first-hand experiences of the divine feminine from spiritual teachers and students from around the world.

Dawn believes everyone holds the divine within them, and sometimes it can be hard to find. Learning to see “your-self” by looking into the metaphoric mirror is powerful and an important step in finding that divine being that lies within.

This book is a jumping off point and it can be read in bits and pieces and help you find respect for yourself. I think it is also a great book to read in a circle with other women. In a safe circle environment it is easy to open up the dialogue and think about how you can find your own divine feminine and search for that goddess that lies within you.
