Balance Your Masculine Essence
Balanced masculine qualities include leadership, vision, consciousness, discernment, courage, loyalty, confidence, focus, and drive. There's a protective and grounding feeling in this type of energy. It is self-less, solid and shows direction. Balanced masculine energy makes you feel safe and secure within your Self.
Clarity and focus are some of the greatest gifts of the Balanced Masculine, he is brutally honest. He doesn’t want to buy popularity, and he doesn’t care what others think because he stands up for the right things. He is direct. He says what he thinks and doesn’t belittle himself to play any games.
The Shiva Sequences are complementary to the goddess sequences and teach you about the balanced divine masculine qualities using yoga and meditation practices for 7 male archetypes to help you know your purpose, set boundaries, and create personal wholeness. Each archetype will pave a path for you to better understand who you really are and what’s holding you back from living a life in balance with yourself and others.
This program is inspired by the book “King Warrior Magician Lover" by Robert Moore
The use of the word “masculine” does not have anything to do with the male gender. Personal ‘wholeness’ can only be achieved when you are connected to both your feminine AND your masculine energies.

Shiva Program
This program is for those who would like to dive in deeper and receive more guidance to learn about your own balanced masculine energy. We live in a masculine world where we generally consider masculine qualities to be associated with ego, money, strength, and toughness, but that is not what masculinity is about. The balanced masculine is the impulse of change, evolution and freedom. It is constantly looking for direction and to achieve something meaningful. It can be firm without being rigid; provide direction without blinders, and be direct and clear without being closed.
