If you believe tattoos are more than just body art, here’s the good news: you’re already tapping into higher wisdom. S...

Ignoring dark feminine energy is keeping you small—here’s how to change that

Darkness, it seems, has always had a bad rap. It’s the unknown, the unpredictable, the place where shadows twist into imagined monsters.

But what if this enigma has been misunderstood all along?

What if, instead of something to be feared, it’s actually a place where hidden parts of you reside and are waiting to be acknowledged?

It’s in this shadowy realm where a force lies, both fierce and transformative—your dark feminine energy.

It’s the parts of yourself you’ve buried, the emotion...

How to hypnotize someone & help them overcome stress, anxiety, and more

126 questions to ask your crush that’ll turn small talk into deep talk

If there’s one thing that kills the mood of any interaction, it’s the lull. And when it happens with someone you really fancy, it can be damn awwwkward.

You stare at them. They stare at you.

You’re both waiting for the other to pull this stalled dialogue out of the dead air. It’s like the romantic boat scene from The Little Mermaid…except you haven’t lost your voice (and there are no animals singing “sha-la-la-la-la-la, my, oh, my” in your ear).

Wouldn’t it be great if you had, oh, let’...

Goal chart: How to create your own & realize your dreams

You might be familiar with the struggle of “so many goals, so little time.” It’s as if you’re always chasing the next big win, but you’re not sure what collecting these wins will accumulate to. Or maybe you’re overwhelmed with the steps needed to make this dream a reality, and you drop off in organizing your next moves.

We are often taught to make goals but not how to design them toward a path to success. What if your confusion could be resolved on a single page? It’s called a goal chart.

How to recover from burnout: Success stories from Mindvalley members

“One day, I found myself in total overload,” Jon Butcher, the founder of Lifebook, recalls in his Mindvalley Quest of the same name. “After years and years of holding everything up for everyone, I simply collapsed under the weight of my own life.”

Anyone having gone through burnout can typically relate. It’s heavy, it’s paralyzing, and when you’re trying to do simple day-to-day things, it can be a total pain in the butt.

…But like many others who’ve gone through a similar experience and fo...

How to tap into your divine feminine, according to embodiment coach Rachel Pringle

Have you ever been told you were too loud, too crazy, too chaotic? 

This is how women have been conditioned to suppress their divine feminine energy—the most sacred and creative expression of their feminine selves.

Indeed, women can be unapologetically creative in their ways of being, which can be disruptive. But the world desperately needs this feminine force as much as it needs more love, compassion, unity, and healing.

When you activate your divine femininity, you liberate yourself f...

The 12 universal laws: Your secret to manifesting anything

Chances are, you know about the law of relativity, thanks to Albert Einstein. Then, there’s the law of cause and effect, thanks to Isaac Newton. Then, there’s the law of attraction, thanks to Rhonda Byrne and her best-selling book, The Secret. 

But what are the other universal laws out there? And the more important question is, how are they relevant to your life?

The thing is, the universe is conspiring in your favor—to attract abundance, love, and happiness into your life. The secret is, ...

10 feng shui bed placement hacks for wealth and romance

A bedroom is a sanctuary. It’s a place where you rest, where you feel warmth and comfort, where you feel safe… But if that’s not the feeling you get when you’re there, then something’s got to change. 

New sheets, walls painted a new color, or different tactics for better sleep—these are all great (and perhaps necessary) things you can do. However, there is one thing you can try that may not be so obvious: feng shui bed placement.

How does it help? How do you do it? And what’s the best way ...

Chelsey Goodan on why teenage girls are “Underestimated” and why they shouldn’t be

“You just don’t understand.”

It’s the response I often get from my teenage stepdaughter. And it’s often followed by an “ugh,” an eye roll, or a curt turn and stomp off to her room.

Every mother figure knows this scene all too well. The dynamics with their teenage daughter can go every which way—loving to exasperating to affectionate, and then back to infuriating.

Chances are, the behavior is chalked up to being dramatic. Or mean. Or—my personal favorite—hormotional.
