How To Speak To The Goddess In You
Dressing like a goddess even when you're chilling at home will help you remember to speak to yourself accordingly.
Peace and blessings mystic lovers!
Do you pay attention to your inner voice? I don’t just mean do you hear the voice in your head, I mean do you actually acknowledge how your inner voice communicates with you. As we grow and evolve, so does our inner voice. I had a major “ah ha” moment today that signaled just how far I’ve come in transforming my inner voice, strengthening my positive self-talk, and learning how to speak to the goddess in me.
I was having one of those days where I didn’t want to leave my bed. I wasn’t feeling down, or sad, or anything like that. I’m in my luteal phase which means I have very little energy, so I sought the comfort of my bedroom. I spent the majority of my day in writing, working on some aesthetic update to this website, eating, and napping. It was actually a pretty high vibrational experience to be so productive yet comfortable. When I ventured out of my room for refreshments I was really craving some juice. Now, I typically don’t keep any in my house because it’s rare that I have a taste for anything other than water. However, to my surprise I opened the fridge and discovered a carton of green juice I had purchased a few days prior knowing that my sugar cravings peak during this phase of my menstrual cycle. To say that I was elated by my forethought to take this provision for myself would be an understatement. My inner voice proclaimed “I take such good care of me.”
The epiphany inducing green juice lol!
Um, what?! Did I just praise and affirm myself without prompt? The realization made me giddier than my initial excitement over the green juice! Usually when I elicit self praise it’s when I am reciting affirmations or using a writing prompt while journaling. But today my inner voice did it all on its own. That simple, first-person statement “I take such good care of me”, really showed how much my soul has evolved.
When I was less connected and in tune with my divine essence, my inner voice was that of my mother. At that time of my life I believed I had to earn my own kindness and respect, and my inner voice reflected that. I would hear her voice in my head, mostly doubting me, critizing me, and reprimanding me. That version of my inner voice was super harsh and down right mean sometimes. I would call myself names and curse myself out in my head regularly.
As I began to see myself and heal my inner child, slowly transforming from the inside out, my inner voice naturally began to change as well. It became the voice of a close friend who was a pivotal person in my spiritual healing journey. Her voice would echo in my psyche; reminding me to give myself grace while encouraging and affirming me throughout my day. I was so grateful to have a friend that spoke life into me during that season of my life, but I did not like that my inner voice was attached to her essence. To me, having someone else’s voice narrating in my head, no matter how positive it was, meant that I was not spiritually connected to my higher self. I still had a lot of work to do.
I trained my inner voice to become my own by reciting affirmations and journaling, but there was still a disconnect. Although I could hear my voice it spoke to me in third person because I had trained my inner voice to speak as my higher self talking down to me. It was as if my higher version of self floated above me like God, sending down guidance and love. We weren’t the same entity. I gave all praise, gratitude, and credit to my higher self until today when my inner voice said “ I take such good care of me”. I still can’t get over this statement! “I take such good care of me” signifies the unity of my mind and soul. They are finally on the same frequency. My inner voice is speaking to the goddess that lives within me because it realizes that I am her.
Here’s how you can strengthen and transform your inner voice too.
Identify the voice.
Ask yourself who’s inner voice is speaking to you. Is the voice your voice or someone else's? Evaluate what your current relationship is like with that person or yourself, how the relationship makes you feel emotionally, and what thoughts you have about your current inner voice. Once you’re clear on all this you can begin to make changes.
Remove the negativity.
Being mindful and giving yourself grace is necessary when working on improving your inner voice. Release any thoughts of perfectionism, self doubt, or desire to have all the answers. Life is a journey and it is ok to make mistakes. Moreover, even the most healed person does not operate as their highest self all the time. Moments in the dark helps you see what needs to happen in the light. When you catch yourself speaking negatively, correct it by creating an alternate thought statement rooting in positivity and self love.
Recite your affirmations aloud!
The more you hear yourself say positive things, the more your mind will start to believe them and regurgitate those positive statements in your subconscious. In time, positive self talk will take over your inner voice. If you need guidance on how to put together affirmations that are unique to your spiritual journey and goals, my article titled “The Power of Positive Thinking for The Divine Feminine” has instructions on how to write affirmations.
Journal as much as possible.
Writing gets your inner voice out of your mind and on paper so you can create a separation between yourself and your thoughts in order to know how you truly feel. Oftentimes, what we think about ourselves in our head is so far from what we actually believe or want to believe is true. Journaling makes your inner voice tangible so you can remove negative thought patterns.
Final Words
Your inner voice will always be a direct reflection of where you are on your spiritual and personal development journey. Learning how to speak to the goddess in you takes time, as does all things. When your mind and soul finally make the connection and you begin to operate as your higher self, you can look to your inner voice for confirmation that you have integrated mindful positive self talk into your daily life. Until then, remember to give yourself grace and show gratitude for where you are in your journey.
