			<title><![CDATA[ Living your Warrior Woman ]]></title>
			<link>http://spiritlodge.yuku.com/topic/4681/t/Living-your-Warrior-Woman.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ I was wondering if anyone has tips on living your warrior woman without being a jerk?
<br>
How to be assertive and protect the fort, without attacking or losing the plot?
<br>
<br>
I&#39;ve found this balance only on a couple occasions.
<br>
They had to do with prayer, lovingkindness, and opening sacred space.
<br>
I also think (this is silly) that Cesar Milan does his warrior well in The Dog Whisperer...when he goes into that calm assertive state.
<br>
For me, it is very hard to be calm when... ]]></description>

			<link>http://spiritlodge.yuku.com/topic/4557/t/Warrior-Woman.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ Cinn and I were discussing something else and it triggered the topic of bravery and battle from the feminine perspective. I&#39;m thinking it would make a
great topic to discuss, since it seems to be an issue of womanhood that is often misunderstood or even suppressed.
<br>
<br>
How many women have been told they were being unfeminine when they were merely being assertive?
<br>
How many woman have put up with abuse because they felt being female equated to being submissive?
<br>
How many... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I found this while searching and though it might be interesting to read.  It&#39;s a college students report but I though it pretty good.  Not about Native
American beliefs or really Shamanic but still a good read and an interesting look into the stages of womanhood.

			<description><![CDATA[ It is occurring to me, that in my journey, I bind my wild woman up pretty thoroughly.
<br>
I can&#39;t ever remember reading a story about the Wild Woman...the feral woman...although I get to see glimpses of her in what has been called the Dark
Feminine by my teachers...
<br>
<br>
I&#39;m thinking I need to unbind the wilder side of my nature...and I&#39;m not sure how to even begin, as she is pretty much an unknown to my conscious
experience (which I now am experiencing as kind of sad).... ]]></description>

<br>
While we were on our camp, which I&#39;ve described in the circular living thread in the Walk Your Talk forum, I had a conversation one evening about
motherhood. I described how I felt like I&#39;d lost a part of my womanhood when I became a mother. That I was suddenly no longer seen as a woman, but as
&quot;the one who pushes the stroller&quot;, or &quot;Josh&#39;s mom&quot; (thereby losing even my name). While... ]]></description>
