*Healthy Girl* Habits (Physically, Mentally, & Spiritually)

*Healthy Girl* Habits (Physically, Mentally, & Spiritually)

Peace Family,

Happy Spring!!

At 12:02 I shared about physical *healthy girl habits* that I've implemented over the past two years.

Being a well nourished woman is foundational to assist you hormonally on all levels. I have personally introduced bone broth, raw milk, grass-fed unflavored beef gelatin in my teas and baked treats and grass-fed beef liver to my diet. I also cook with ghee(clarified butter) and organic pasteurized butter to avoid seed oils. I forgot to mention on this episode that I do use extra virgin olive oil from time to time.

In the past few years I haven’t been on a diet, but I’ve managed to lose a substantial amount of weight by learning to eat with my natural hormonal cycle to optimize my metabolism and maintain bodily homeostasis. I don’t calorie restrict at all. I keep it simple focusing on protein, carb, fat - for a balanced diet. I also focus on eating whole foods more than processed foods.

(If you'd like to hear more details about my specific meals and routine, let me know on IG or email me at deekyubwa@gmail.com so I can share in detail on here or substack).

At 25:29 I shared about mental girl habits I've implemented over the years.

Avoiding morning phone use, prioritizing movement, staying connected to your creativity and opening up the living Word!

Irreplaceable Creatrix Audio Immersion

Sacred Rebirths - Poetry Collection

At 37:02 I shared about spiritual girl habits that's helped keep me stay sane in this wild world!

Use your voice to commune, to receive, to pray, and connect with God deeper. Talking about God with others and cultivating your own personal relationship with him is game changing to live a more meaningful life. I invite you to find the community that speaks to you and calls you higher at the same time. If you don't have anyone else to talk to about in this area of your life, I gotchu.

MAFM, WAFV Part 4 - Communicating Difficult Feelings + Asking For Support

Peace Family, I continued on with this book review series on Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus! This is the fourth part out of a five part series. If you haven't listened to Part 1 here is the link - https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/destine-kyubwa/episodes/Men-Are-From-Mars--Women-Are-From-Venus---Book-Review-Part-1-e2f6ud7 If you haven't listened to Part 2, here is the link - https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/destine-kyubwa/episodes/MAFM-WAFV-Part-2---Emotional-Needs-Men-Are-From-Mars--Women-Are-From-Venus-e2g2g3q If you haven't listened to Part 3 here is the link - https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/destine-kyubwa/episodes/MAFM--WAFV-Part-3---Avoiding-Arguments--Scoring-Points-e2g3fue Chapter 11 - How To Communicate Difficult Feelings John begins to introduce the love letter technique as an aid for communicating difficult feelings and I added that this alchemical process only requires our willingness to meet and move through our waves before returning back to our "lover girl mode." John incorporates the four primary aspects of emotional pain into the creation of the Love Letter process. It begins with anger, sadness, fear, regret and then ends with love. As love is the beginning of everything. At 13 minutes I sum up what men generally feel in the process of their love letters. At 14 minutes I break down what a response letter is how it can be helpful. At 21 minutes I speak about valuing and striving for a life-giving union. At 28 minutes I begin Chapter 12 - How To Ask For Support & Get It. I spoke about how the wounded feminine can result in unconscious or conscious entitlement by having a demanding attitude. Would you consider yourself a direct or non-direct communicator? Do you see a difference between "could you" and "would you" statements when asking for support? At 50 minutes I speak about the wounded feminine and how we as women, desire his SPINE and HEART. At 56 minutes I broke down why John says "love can be programming." At 1:05 minutes, I spoke about this private community you may be interested in. Thank you so much for being an active participate in this book review series and on Diary of the Devoted in general. DM me on IG and let me know your thoughts on this series so far if you feel called! I seriously value and love reading your feedback. @destinesunshine_ >>> Part 5 of this series is published inside of the Femininity Lovers Tier on Patreon. <<< Chapter 13 - Keeping The Magic Alive This chapter is all about keeping the love alive and I'm so excited to give more tangible examples to help support you on your journey. You are under no obligation to stay in this private community but my guess is you'll find so much more femininity content to dive deeper into :) (BONUS) I also shared some tips on how to inspire the man you're relating to not just feel but be your hero Here is the link to join us today! - ⁠Femininity Lovers Tier⁠⁠.

MAFM, WAFV Part 3 - Avoiding Arguments + Scoring Points

MAFM, WAFV Part 3 - Avoiding Arguments + Scoring Points

Peace Family,
I continued on with this book review series on Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus! This is the third part out of a five part series.

If you haven't listened to Part 1 here is the link -
podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/destine-kyubwa/episodes/Men-Are-From-Mars--Women-Are-From-Venus---Book-Review-Part-1-e2f6ud7


If you haven't listened to Part 2, here is the link - podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/destine-kyubwa/episodes/MAFM-WAFV-Part-2---Emotional-Needs-Men-Are-From-Mars--Women-Are-From-Venus-e2g2g3q

Know that any tension formed from arguments can be alchemized into aliveness. I broke down the 3 common ways Martians and Venusians avoid hurt. I'd like to invite you into some reflection during this episode. Would you consider yourself a "folder, faker, or fighter"? Know that exuding appreciation and loving approval can go a long way in your relationships. Know that getting to the root of how you feel is beyond valuable!
I start Chapter 10 at 32 minutes.
We have this ability as woman, to aid in a mans healing with our appreciative heart. Do you have a deep hearted reverence for life itself? Do you find yourself catching the "flu"(resentment) often?
The era of self-accountable women is here. Give the Martian(man) you're relating to, a chance to show up. This is all about having a new edge for honoring and respecting the masculine. This is also about being in confident in our feminine design as woman of God.
