24.01.2022 Are you deeply concerned about the level of violence, poverty, inequality and toxic relationships today? Our Masculine Dominated Society, commonly known as the patriarchy, has brought us a lot of benefits but has also resulted in serious problems, in particular: violence, poverty, inequality and toxic relationships. I believe that if we, and society, can shift our way of thinking to value the blend of feminine and masculine attributes we can, through balance, help resolve th...ese problems. In my book Feminine Masculine Balance: A Paradigm Shift for a Peaceful and Abundant Society I show you why these issues exist in a Masculine Dominated Society and how Feminine Masculine Balance (FMB) can help.

22.01.2022 Have you seen my Feminine Masculine Balance Table? It has three columns: the left column is a list of feminine attributes/qualities/energies; the right their masculine polarities and the centre how they blend. When you look at these qualities you can see we can all express them regardless of gender. The masculine or masculine energies such as those in the table are pure energy, neither good nor bad. When used in a balanced way, their contribution to society is invalu...able; however, when a number of masculine energies line up and are expressed without being balanced by feminine energies, they become distorted and dominating leading to violence, poverty, inequality and toxic relationships. The term masculine-dominating refers to these circumstances. https://buff.ly/3bW4Ebl #femininemasculinebalance #health #wellbeing #wellness #wisdom #mindfulness #mindful #mindfulnesspractice #linkedin #psychology #seewhatyoumademedo #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness#feminism #masculine #masculinity #masculineenergy #women #womensupporringwomen #womenempowerment #womeninspiringwomen #womenswisdom #paradigmshift See more
20.01.2022 This is an appealing book. Recounting her experiences both professionally and within her own family, the author develops a convincing argument for fostering such feminine personal qualities as compassion, imagination, sensitivity and intuition in both women and men as a counterbalance to masculine traits such as rationality, logic and competitiveness which are regarded as necessary to succeed in modern society. We need both the masculine and the feminine. Her hope is that when a balance is achieved, it will help to eliminate war, lessen the damage we are doing to the environment, improve our interactions with each other, and enhance our quality of life: noble aims indeed. She admits that we have a long way to go; but hopes that her book will help to raise awareness, which is the first step to making change. Anonymous
20.01.2022 Blame Id like to see us being people first and gender second. Yes, blaming women goes at least as far back as the story of Adam and Eve. Eve plucks the apple from the Tree of Knowledge and offers it to Adam. He could have refused, but he took it, and when things went wrong, he didnt take responsibility for his decision but instead blamed her. Its the classic masculine-dominated behaviour of not taking responsibility for ones behaviour and then blaming someone else w...hen things dont work out. Men and women who operate from distorted masculine energies continue to do it today. For example, they come home from a bad day at work and take it out on their spouse. Lets help both men get out of The Man Box and also those women who have had to take on masculine dominated behaviour to survive in the workplace to learn to confidently express feminine energies. There is no doubt that we need to evolve from our masculine dominated society which results in violence, poverty, inequality and toxic relationships to one of Feminine Masculine Balance for a healthier, safer, more peaceful and abundant world for us all https://buff.ly/3bW4Ebl. #femininemasculinebalance #health #wellbeing #wellness #wisdom #mindfulness #mindful #mindfulnesspractice #linkedin #psychology #seewhatyoumademedo #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness See more
20.01.2022 Explaining FMB one post at a time My father died at ninety-eight, and my mother died at ninety-six. People tell me how lucky I am that my parents lived so long, but I can assure you there is no pleasure in seeing someone you love, who has lived a fulfilling and vibrant life, suffering for so long. Both my parents believed in euthanasia and had joined the Euthanasia Society, but my father couldnt request it because it was illegal. Life is not just about living longer (mascul...ine quantity), its also about the quality of life that can be enjoyed. Discernment is a blend of quality and quantity, and when terminal illness, incredible pain, and poor quality of life due to frailty become an issue, doctors and the patients loved ones should be allowed to discern end-of-life decisions. Its what veterinarians do for animals who are suffering. In a balanced society, people would be discerning about euthanasia. They wouldnt just kill people to get rid of them. A friend of mine once raised an objection to me, saying, If we allowed euthanasia, people would knock off their parents for their inheritance. So, I went home and told my daughter: If I get dementia, I would rather you euthanise me and get your inheritance than allow greedy investors to steal your inheritance through investing in nursing homes. I believe all nursing homes should be not for profit. Surveys have shown that the main opposition to dying with dignity comes from religions. Perhaps one of the problems is that, from a masculine perspective, life is seen as a straight line: beginning, middle, and end. Thats it. Also, straight-line thinking detaches from showing common sense, discernment and having compassion for suffering. Religions preach compassion and yet they insist that people suffer and die in the most undignified ways. It doesnt make sense! #qualityoflife #quantity #femininemasculinebalance #psychology #linkedin #seewhatyoumademedo To obtain a copy of the Feminine Masculine Balance (FMB) table, please subscribe to my website https://buff.ly/3bW4Ebl.

20.01.2022 Regardless of gender, the line-up of masculine energies/ attributes plays out in this way: for whatever reason, a person with a linear, rational, logical, analytical perspective develops a hierarchical belief that they are superior to their partner. If challenged in any way, the person reacts in a defensive, competitive, independent manner, acting with detachment and strength to control their life by taking control of their partner; this being fueled by destructive anger. An...ger is an emotion and therefore feminine but anger can be constructive or destructive. It becomes destructive when it is distorted by the unbalanced line up of masculine energies. An example of that is the Luke Batty story. Luke’s father, in a fit of destructive angry rage, murdered his son on the cricket ground. Luke’s mother, Rosie, used her anger constructively to work towards eliminating domestic violence #linkedin #nonviolence #inequality #toxicrelationships #femininemasculinebalance #paradigmshift #eliminateviolence #psychology #seewhatyoumademedo To obtain a copy of the Feminine Masculine Balance (FMB) table, please subscribe to my website https://buff.ly/3bW4Ebl.

19.01.2022 ave you seen my Feminine Masculine Balance Table? It has three columns: the left column is a list of feminine attributes/qualities/energies; the right their masculine polarities and the centre how they blend. When you look at these qualities you can see we can all express them regardless of gender. Generally, men are more masculine but still express feminine energies and women are generally more feminine but still express masculine energies. A couple of physical analogies... are: To have a healthy, functioning body, all people, men and women have progesterone (female hormone) and testosterone (male hormone) although in different proportions. In her book, Gender Mosaic : Beyond the Myth of the Male and Female Brain by Daphna Joel and Luba Vikhanski, Daphna Joel, a neuroscientist, explains that every human brain is a unique mixture -- or mosaic -- of "male" and "female" features, and that these mosaics dont map neatly into two categories: mens brains exhibit more male features but still show female features and likewise women have more female features but still show male features. However, just because women and men are different doesnt translate to different levels of access to benefits, opportunities and recognition in society. https://buff.ly/3bW4Ebl #femininemasculinebalance #health #wellbeing #wellness #wisdom #mindfulness #mindful #mindfulnesspractice #linkedin #psychology #seewhatyoumademedo #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness#feminism #masculine #masculinity #masculineenergy #women #womensupporringwomen #womenempowerment #womeninspiringwomen #womenswisdom #paradigmshift See more
19.01.2022 A special thank you, to everyone who has taught and supported me throughout this challenging year. Thank you for your belief, kindness towards me and your and interest in Feminine Masculine Balance. I am one of the lucky ones because 2020 was a year of growth and fulfilment in my work and also a year of joy because I have been able to play regularly with my (now 19 month old ) granddaughter. In 2021 I plan to continue spreading the word about Feminine Masculine Balance and h...elping people master their knowledge of it through an Online course. Wishing you a safe and meaningful New Year that we can all celebrate! Jacqueline
19.01.2022 Historically, modern medicine developed from a masculine-dominated logical, rational, analytical, and scientific approach. This has resulted in extraordinary advances in the understanding of diseases, medicines, and surgical techniques. However, for all those advances, the types of diseases may have changed but the overall incidence of diseases hasnt improved and seems to be worsening. Yes, we are being kept alive for longer (quantitymasculine) but with how many diseases de...bilitating us (feminine -quality of life)? Although things are changing it seems to me that doctors have been operating from a paradigm of health being the absence of clinical symptoms and treating patients accordingly. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why we have so many chronic diseases in Western society today. The problem is that chronic disease can take years, if not decades, before clinical symptoms appear. Major diseases such as heart disease, cancer, and diabetes are chronic diseases that can go unnoticed until its too late. I remember hearing that when doctors undertook post-mortem examinations on young soldiers who had been killed in the Vietnam War, they had enough atherosclerosis in their arteries to have a heart attack, but because their young arteries were flexible, they had no symptoms of arterial disease. In my next post, I will give you an alternative definition of health.

17.01.2022 Violence. Poverty. Inequality. Toxic relationships are constant struggles in our masculine-dominated society, commonly known as the patriarchy. Have you noticed that we are experiencing a global outpouring for change, exposing some of the most insidious elements of the patriarchy to public examination? Groundswell movements like the Womens March, Black Lives Matter, #timesup and the Student Walk-Outs for gun control raise a universal call against violence and domination and... are calling for real change which is possible. But first we need to understand the driving force behind all the turmoil in our world. Underneath the layers of misogyny, entitlement, and exploitation lies a profound imbalance between the value and expression of masculine qualities over the feminine. In this inspirational guide, Jacqueline McLeods vison of a world in balance explains how masculine and feminine energies are unbalanced on a global scale. Competitiveness, rationality, and detachment while beneficial for all genders, grow dangerous when they dominate our value systems. Jacqueline believes and clearly demonstrates using a practical Feminine Masculine Balance table that women and men alike can open their eyes to a new way of being and become better versions of themselves by valuing and balancing their feminine energies with their masculine energies. #femininemasculinebalance #psychology #linkedin #seewhatyoumademedo #blacklivesmatter #guncontrol #guncontrolnow To obtain a copy of the Feminine Masculine Balance (FMB) table, please subscribe to my website https://buff.ly/3bW4Ebl.

17.01.2022 In our Masculine-Dominated Society (M-DS), parenting is considered womens work and, therefore, undervalued. If parenting would finally be recognised as the important profession that it is, this could resolve or prevent many of our emotional, mental, and social problems. The M-DS defines work as something for which we are paid. We go to work, we get paid. Therefore, the rational, logical argument is that if we are not being paid, we are not working. If were not working, we...re lazy and were of no value. When a couple gets together, there are two jobs: breadwinning, or having a job, and home duties that involve cooking, cleaning, shopping, gardening, etc. All of this unpaid work is taken for granted. Its undervalued simply because we cannot say, I get x-thousand dollars per year for doing these things. If we have children, a third job is added. Its unpaid, again, so the M-DS lumps it in with all the other home-caring work. However, parenting is a third job because, after all, being a nanny is not the same as being a housekeeper. They are two different jobs. As I read once, Having a job is important. Parenting is priceless.

15.01.2022 I have finished reading your book and am in awe of your ability ..... to write it! When you touched on the autobiographical and I could hear your voice I often found that I was smiling and nodding in agreement.... even when the stuff you were writing about wasnt easy. But I wasnt so surprised by your story and your propositions and encouragements because you have shared much of that with me over the years. What did surprise me, although with hindsight I see it shoul...dnt have, was the clarity of your writing...... I think it is quite unusual in these turgid times. I found it to be peaceful reading ..... almost an example of the medium is the message. Congratulations .... I think that is a tremendous thing. It also gave me insight into the scientist in you.... setting things out in that clear manner. I am not up to writing a review. Sorry.

15.01.2022 Explaining FMB one post at a time I have heard doctors say that there is no evidence that nutritional supplements are of any value in maintaining health. Well there may not be any evidence from masculine dominated research institutions but there is plenty of clinical evidence and common sense. Here is a comprehensive article: https://buff.ly/32yK4uR After all, scientists have only recently discovered the benefits of meditation and mindfulness, something which has been known by Buddhists and others for millennia!

14.01.2022 Explaining FMB one post at a time: A more balanced approach to life starts with getting enough sleep. Studies show how important it is to get eight hours of sleep (one-third of the twenty-four hours) because while sleeping, the brain shuffles memories and sorts out our life to prepare for the next day by forming new pathways to help us learn and remember information. During sleep, the body works to repair itself. In this way, it protects our mental and physical health and im...proves quality of life. In children, sleep also assists with growth and development. Deep sleep triggers the body to release a hormone that promotes normal growth and development in children and teens. This hormone also boosts muscle mass and helps repair cells and tissues in children, teens, and adults. Sleep also plays a role in puberty and fertility. Because sleep helps us pay attention and make decisions, it is important in regard to safety. Ongoing sleep deficiency alters activities in some parts of the brain and leads to difficulties with controlling our emotions and coping with change. It is also linked to risk-taking behaviour, depression, and suicide. Because the body repairs itself during sleep, a deficiency in sleep can result in an increased risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, blood pressure, stroke, and kidney disease. Sleep also affects the bodys response to insulin, resulting in increased levels of blood sugar and therefore an increased risk of diabetes. Because our immune system relies on sleep to stay healthy, ongoing sleep deprivation can even lead to an increase in common infections. #femininemasculinebalance #sleep #holistichealing #holistichealth #wellness #psychology #linkedin #seewhatyoumademedo To obtain a copy of the Feminine Masculine Balance (FMB) table, please subscribe to my website https://buff.ly/3bW4Ebl.

13.01.2022 This is the result of a discussion with a man on LinkedIn. He thought it should be made into a poster! A real man uses his rationality and logic with common sense and awareness A real man uses his superior physical strength responsibly A real man is protective without controlling others... A real man enjoys being independent at the same time is aware of his interdependence with many other people A real man rejoices in the richness and diversity of life. A real man is discerning about quantity eg balances longevity with quality of life, produces quality goods rather than mass-produced poor quality goods A real man recognises his worth without having to acquire massive amounts of money A real man acquires his money without taking advantage of others. A real man values emotions and develops emotional maturity/intelligence. A real man enjoys competition but recognises when it is more appropriate to be collaborative A real man knows when it is appropriate to be detached, sensitive or compassionate. A real man knows how to act mindfully A real man knows how to be focussed without being detached from other factors of importance A real man is kind.

13.01.2022 Journalists and others refer to some people as powerful when, in fact, they are dominating and controlling. There are various usages of the word power, and this type of power is power over other people, other animals, things, and the environment. People who believe in power-over come from a masculine dominated mindset They expect to get what they want through domination and control at any cost and they like to expand their influence. Power-over kills the spirit. On the oth...er hand, true power is the ability to relate to and be aware of other people, animals, and the environment with an understanding of our interdependence and a concern for the welfare of all. It nourishes the spirit. As with other aspects of human behaviour, there is a continuum between one end of the polarity and the other. https://buff.ly/3bW4Ebl. #nonviolence #power #inequality #toxicrelationships #femininemasculinebalance #paradigmshift #psychology #linkedin #seewhatyoumademedo
13.01.2022 Its important to distinguish between feminine and masculine energies and gender. The word woman is not synonymous with feminine and man is not synonymous with masculine. Men generally express more masculine energies and women generally express more feminine energies but everybody expresses both. Have you seen my Feminine Masculine Balance Table? It has three columns: the left column is a list of feminine attributes/qualities/energies; the right their masculine polarities... and the centre how they blend. For example, intuition is feminine, being rational is masculine and the blend is being sensible or common sense. However, there is a continuum between one polarity and the other black through shades of grey to white. Therefore, a woman who has a greater feminine expression may be rational flavoured by a touch of intuition whereas a man may express himself in a purely rational way which at times may not be interpreted as sensible.

13.01.2022 Recent statistics for Covid 19 in Victorian Aged Care: Private Beds Public Beds 44,600 5400 Active Cases Active Cases 1923 4... 1 in 23 residents 1 in 900 residents These statistics graphically show that all Aged Care facilities should be not-for-profit run by people whose focus is on the staff and those in care - not on cutting corners to make as much profit as possible! Historically, most care has been done by unpaid women and those people with a money-making mindset investing in nursing homes have conveniently detached themselves from having any comprehension of what and how much is involved in care and how inadequately trained many aged care workers are. Now that people are living longer and the masculine dominated mindset values quantity of life (longevity) over quality of life, there are many older people who require care, often specialised care. It is also unacceptable to expect relatives to do 24 hour shifts at home. Care requires time and feminine and Feminine Masculine Balance attributes such as emotional maturity, sensitivity, awareness, nurturing, flexibility and respect for quality of life these attributes are foreign to those with a money-making mindset. There is no doubt that we need more and better trained staff in aged care facilities but also the recognition of the very important work aged care workers do with the appropriate remuneration. https://buff.ly/3bW4Ebl. #femininemasculinebalance #psychology #linkedin #aged #agedcare
13.01.2022 We are still living in a masculine dominated society, commonly known as the patriarchy. Although things are improving, we have a long way to go to achieve Feminine Masculine Balance of the energies which lie beneath gender equity for all genders and to eliminate violence, poverty, inequality and toxic relationships. I am interested in what will motivate you to work towards making the change from a masculine dominated society to one of Feminine Masculine Balance (FMB). Id love to hear from you about the ill-effects you have experienced as result of living in this masculine dominated world.

09.01.2022 A classic example of religion being masculine-dominated is the story of Adam and Eve. In the garden of Eden, Eve plucked the apple from the Tree of Knowledge and offered it to Adam. He didn’t have to accept it. He made a choice. When things went wrong, instead of taking responsibility for his decision Adam blamed Eve (emotional immaturity). This pattern of behaviour still continues with masculine-dominated people today. If anything goes wrong in their life, they blame someone... else rather than taking responsibility for their own decisions. Now perhaps Eve was to blame, but I once read a comment by a feminist author that stated that even if Eveand therefore all womenwere guilty, surely after 2,000 years we’ve done our time!

09.01.2022 I really enjoyed this book. It was easy to read and portrayed an interesting and alternative view for how to help to ease so many issues in our world, particularly violence. The author provides thought-provoking and personal stories and quotes to emphasise points. The chapters are separated into different issues or topics with an overlay of how feminine masculine balance is a way to overcome many problems. Hopefully it will go some way to making a difference in the world, whi...ch has again been rocked by manmade atrocities. I recommend this to all generations of readers.

09.01.2022 In our masculine dominated society we are admired for the masculine energy of action or doing and the feminine energy of being is often thought of as lazy. Obviously, we need to be active to care for ourselves and others, earn money, look after our homes, and play. Doing is also involved in having an important life mission, providing value, and developing our talents. We are here to enjoy life and to create. Doing also gives us a feeling of control and therefore a ...sense of safety. However, doing is not being busy. It means working well and working sensibly. Most of us suffer from stress. Physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual stress can block healing. When we overdo, we get stressed. Stillness, mindfulness, meditation, relaxation, rest, and sleep allow healing. We need an interplay between doing and being, not one or the other. It is recycling energy. We put out during our active phase and renew during our passive phase. It is important to recognize our need for stillness, relaxation, mindfulness, meditation and sleep to rest and recharge. https://buff.ly/3bW4Ebl. #femininemasculinebalance #health #wellbeing #wellness #wisdom #mindfulness #mindful #mindfulnesspractice #linkedin #psychology #seewhatyoumademedo #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness See more
09.01.2022 Explaining FMB one post at a time: Small children play, from the time they wake in the morning until the time they go to sleep at night. It is vital for developing a healthy brain, imagination, dexterity, and physical, cognitive, and emotional strength. They engage, explore, and interact with the world around them through play. Somewhere along our life path, many of us give it up. We become serious, and everything we do has to have a purpose, whereas play is something we do f...or the fun of it. In their book, Play: How it Shapes the Brain, Opens the Imagination, and Invigorates the Soul, Dr. Stuart Brown and Christopher Vaughan show that purposeless all-consuming play is a biological drive as integral to our health as sleep or nutrition . Our ability to play throughout life is the single most important factor in determining our success and happiness. It is hardwired into our brains and is the mechanism by which we become resilient, smart, and adaptable people. Play is essential to our social skills, adaptability, intelligence, creativity, and ability to problem solve. Yes, we have to work, be responsible, and be productive, but we also need to stop and play. #peaceful #peaceofmind #play #wellbeing #femininemasculinebalance #imagination #adaptability #creativity #intelligence #socialskills #psychology #linkedin #seewhatyoumademedo To obtain a copy of the Feminine Masculine Balance (FMB) table, please subscribe to my website https://buff.ly/3bW4Ebl.

08.01.2022 Its been a long time coming, but 2017 tipped open a global outpouring for change, exposing some of the most insidious elements of the patriarchy to public examination.

08.01.2022 Here are some suggestions: Feminism: valuing and respecting feminine qualities equally to the masculine, all of which everyone can express regardless of gender Womenism: the advocacy of womens rights on the grounds of gender equity... Masculinism: expressing masculine qualities appropriately Menism: advocacy of men quitting The Man Box in which they are expected to abide by society-initiated rules such as: dont act like a girl; dont be too committed; dont ask for help; always be in control; dont show weakness; dont be too loving, caring or kind.

08.01.2022 This book is a great introduction into this concept of masculine feminine balance which describes the foundation to essentially make the world a better place. I was initially skeptical as I expected another book about feminism however this book certainly wasnt that. Jacqueline describes the concept of masculine and feminine qualities in both men and women and how striving towards more balanced qualities can improve ones own life and subsequently the world around them. In ...the book, the author uses examples of everyday situations that we can all relate to and provides some food for thought about how we can make the world a better place starting with ourselves. Jacquelines book was a nice, brief introduction into this concept, a very easy to read and understand book and I look forward to a follow up book delving a bit deeper into the subject.

07.01.2022 This is a masterpiece on understanding of feminine and masculine characteristics, and how using these in a balanced way can lead to a kinder and more tolerant world. The chart, The Blending of Some Feminine and Masculine Principles is excellent, and the diagram representing the masculine and the feminine merging into a spiral illustrates these ideas in an uncomplicated and helpful way. Jacquelines commitment to a holistic approach to this balance is to share with the re...ader with reference to her research and life experiences, a way to find the light within and to create a better and more generous world for ourselves and for others. I thoroughly recommend this book. Although it is dealing with a deep subject, it is inspiring and easy to read.

07.01.2022 Explaining FMB one post at a time Once a friend and I were having lunch. She was feeling stressed because she had a very busy business. She said that she really needed to play more so she could balance it with her work. I thought about it and said, Theres more to it than that. Work and play are important, but they are both activities. What you also need is a balance between activity (masculine) and stillness (feminine). You need to do and to be. In our Masculine-Domi...nated Society (M-DS), we are rewarded for what we do, not for who we are and certainly not for just doing nothing. In fact, its almost a no-no to do nothing. My mother was constantly expecting me to do, do, do. When I was older, I would go into my bedroom and pretend to study so that I could have time and space for myself and have the solitude that is particularly important for an introvert like me. #psychology #linkedin #femininemasculinebalance #health #wellbeing #wellness #wisdom #mindfulness #mindful #seewhatyoumademedo #mindfulnesspractice To purchase my book: https://buff.ly/2TuWSyD To obtain a copy of the Feminine Masculine Balance (FMB) table, please subscribe to my website https://buff.ly/3bW4Ebl.

07.01.2022 Explaining FMB one post at a time I am old enough to remember a time when doctors said that it hasnt been proven that smoking causes disease. They were stuck in the rational, logical, analytical science model. Blinkered straight line thinking! I worked in a general hospital and would hear them tell the patient not to smoke too much. I couldnt believe it because if they had been listening during their pre-med lectures they would know that if one introduces a foreign su...bstance/toxin into the body that will cause a bodily reaction and if you continue to do that, particularly on a daily basis a dis-ease lack of ease will develop. If they were in Feminine Masculine Balance they would have been knowing, aware and sensible (used their common sense). Instead of waiting until scientists proved that smoking caused diseases, they could have used their common sense (blend of rational and intuitive) and tell patients not to smoke until it has been proven to be safe. that is the essence of the precautionary principle - we must prove something is safe, not prove it is unsafe!!!

06.01.2022 There is no doubt that we need to evolve from our masculine dominated society which results in violence, poverty, inequality and toxic relationships to one of Feminine Masculine Balance for a healthier, safer, more peaceful and abundant world for us all. But how to make the paradigm shift? Have you seen my Feminine Mascuine Balance Table? It has three columns: the left column is a list of feminine attributes/qualities/energies; the right their masculine polarities and the ...centre how they blend. Working with this table is a great help in making this paradigm shift and is the basis of my book: Feminine Masculine Balance. A Paradigm Shift For A Peaceful And Abundant Society.

06.01.2022 The masculine mindset of economists and politicians is that, for a healthy economy, it must expand. However, that is unsustainable and there are now suggestions that we need a steady-state economy by simply maintaining the size of the existing economy and not seeking further growth. The problem with this is that the poorest nations still need room to develop their economies to attain a dignified level of existence. Consequently, the transition will require the richest nation...s to radically downscale their resource and energy demands. The only effective approach is degrowth. Degrowth means a phase of planned and equitable economic contraction (feminine) in the richest nations, eventually reaching a steady state that operates within Earths biophysical limits. (Feminine Masculine Balance). In his article, Samuel Alexander presents this concept and describes how a degrowth economy works. He concludes, I hold degrowth up as the most coherent framework for understanding the global predicament and signifying the only desirable way out of it. The alternative is to consume ourselves to death under the false banner of green growth, which would not be smart economics. https://buff.ly/2DIIGcP #femininemasculinebalance #linkedin #seewhatyoumademedo #psychology #environment See more
05.01.2022 If a couple thinks holistically, they would see the big picture: that people are different and it is okay to be different. They rejoice in the richness and diversity of life and have the respect and sensitivity to allow others to live their own lives. To reach this point requires intuition and imagination along with common sense, awareness and knowing. Then, if there is a disagreement, the partners can reflect on the differences and be proactive in responding in a trusting..., compassionate and flexible way to collaborate with one another to find a resolution. All of this occurs as a result of blending the feminine with the masculine. #holistic #holistichealing #peaceful #peaceofmind #collaboration #collaborate #eliminateviolence #psychology #linkedin #seewhatyoumademedo #femininemasculinebalance To obtain a copy of the Feminine Masculine Balance (FMB) table, please subscribe to my website https://buff.ly/3bW4Ebl.

05.01.2022 Something to keep in mind during this pandemic is primary preventive health care. It is actually best as a life-long practice. Primary preventive health care is so vital to improve the immune system and it includes good hygiene, nutrition including supplements, exercise both active and passive (stretching), meditation and mindfulness, restful sleep, play and social connection, low levels of pollution, avoiding excessive noise, and financial management. Immunisation and othe...r medical procedures are important but secondary.

04.01.2022 This can be the result of wounds of the patriarchy which come from it setting up many rigid attitudes, rules and practices to keep everyone in their place by gender, race, religion, socio -economic group etc I help all genders including trans and gender diverse identities transform their lives by teaching them how to heal their patriarchal wounds so that they can live with more peace and abundance.

04.01.2022 In my book, Feminine Masculine Balance, A Paradigm Shift for a Peaceful and Abundant Society, https://buff.ly/2TuWSyD I describe how violence comes from the unbalanced line up of masculine energies which can be expressed by all genders and peace is achieved through Feminine Masculine Balance (FMB). Its confusing to hear leaders of masculine-dominated religions calling for world peace when they offend roughly 50 percent of the population by having religious texts preaching ...discrimination, degradation, subjugation and even violence against women. As religious beliefs are so pervasive, it is important that religious leaders take FMB seriously. Just as, for example, Adam should have taken responsibility for his decision in the Garden of Eden rather than blaming Eve, church leaders now need to take responsibility for their religions histories of oppression of women and therefore the feminine. It is time to revise religious texts to heal past injustices, which will not only benefit women, but will consequently heal men. We can then move to a future that values and respects women and therefore the feminine. A future of Feminine Masculine Balance. Only then can church leaders genuinely call for world peace. #femininemasculinebalance #linkedin #seewhatyoumademedo #religion #peaceful See more
04.01.2022 True democracy is politicians collaborating with one another to achieve the best result for the whole population Jacqueline McLeod, Chapter 9 Feminine Masculine Balance. A Paradigm Shift For A Peaceful And Abundant Society Our current adversarial political party system encourages emotionally immature bickering, squabbling, name calling, spin doctoring and often unsatisfactory decisions being made just to be opposite. Adversarial or competitive behaviour is masculine en...ergy, amenability is feminine and the blend is collaboration Feminine Masculine Balance. My vision for the future is to eliminate political parties and have politicians representing their electorates only, not their political parties. They would be required to have a high level of training in collaboration which would result in what we really want from politicians emotional maturity, honesty, transparency, accountability and integrity. #femininemasculinebalance #linkedin #psychology #politics #collaborate #collaboration #emotionalintelligence #honesty #transparency #accountability #integrity #bettertogether To purchase my book: https://buff.ly/2TuWSyD See more
03.01.2022 When my son was dancing at the Royal Swedish Ballet, I visited him in Stockholm. Wandering around the city, I came across this non-violence bronze sculpture by Carl Fredrik Reuterswrd with a powerful statement: a revolver with the barrel tied into a knot. Reuterswrd made this sculpture after singer-songwriter and peace activist John Lennon was murdered. Guns are such lethal weapons, and this was a public display with a very clear message about the relationship between guns and violence. To eliminate violence, we need to evolve away from a masculine dominated society to one of Feminine Masculine Balance https://buff.ly/3bW4Ebl. #nonviolence #power #inequality #toxicrelationships #femininemasculinebalance #paradigmshift #psychology #linkedin #seewhatyoumademedo
02.01.2022 I love the Irish slang: airy fairy which describes a line- up of feminine energies unbalanced by the masculine. This describes a person who is extremely passive - is highly intuitive, emotional and imaginative. They are often sensitive and impractical and not achieve because to bring their imaginings into form requires masculine energies. In contrast, when there is a line-up of masculine energies unbalanced by the feminine, it is dominating and controlling because thats t...he nature of the combination of these energies. A line-up of masculine energies unbalanced by the feminine which can be expressed by all genders results in violence, poverty, inequality and toxic relationships.

02.01.2022 I define health as balance on the spiritual, emotional, physical, mental, creative, and worldly levels. There are many practices which assist the body to heal itself from the perspective of Feminine Masculine Balance. For example, diet nourishes and sustains the body. Exercise is important, but it is active (masculine) and needs to be balanced with passive stretching (feminine) for flexibility and injury prevention. Meditation and mindfulness (a blend of being and doing) is... crucial for stress reduction, a more peaceful mind, better memory, and focus. Spiritual practices enhance a persons compassion and ability to experience and integrate meaning and purpose in life through connectedness to self, others, the arts, nature, and/or a power greater than self. Following these practices regularly over time can enhance the immune system which is so important during this pandemic If this message resonates with you, I invite you to share it with friends, family and network #femininemasculinebalance #health #wellbeing #psychology #wellness #wisdom #mindfulness #mindful #mindfulnesspractice #nutrition #nurturing #linkedin To purchase my book: https://buff.ly/2TuWSyD
02.01.2022 Women generally understand feminine energies and have learned about the masculine because they have been raised and educated in a masculine dominated society. They are often condemned for expressing themselves by being labeled bossy if they are leading, aggressive when they are being assertive, loud when they have something to say, difficult when telling the truth, awkward when asking hard questions and, when I sold a man my parents house for $700,000 more than his original ...offer he angrily said I was a hard women! To survive in a masculine dominated work environment some women have become very masculine in their behaviour but, to improve the culture in all areas of life, I believe women can help introduce FMB according to my Feminine Masculine Balance table which can be obtained by subscribing to my website: https://buff.ly/3bW4Ebl This can include: trusting and being sensible about their intuition, respecting their emotions and letting them be their guide using common sense and awareness, recognising the value of holistic thinking and integrating it with analysis Reflecting and then being proactive on any issue Valuing their collaborative abilities, compassion and flexibility Role modelling trust rather than control #femininemasculinebalance #linkedin #seewhatyoumademedo #psychology See more
