Growing up, I never knew a relaxed woman.

Successful women, yes.

Productive women, plenty.

But relaxed women, I'm not sure I've ever met a woman like that.

This quote went viral on Pinterest and Instagram many years ago,

and when something goes insanely viral like that,

it's because it's something that so many of us resonate with.

So in this video, I'm going to tell you how to actually start becoming a relaxed woman.

Because a relaxed woman is not just a woman who takes a nice hot bath every now and then.

It is a state of being.

And so I'm going to break everything down why so many of us are struggling with this,

what's holding us back and how to become her.

And I hope that you do stick with me

and watch this whole video because learning how to operate from a relaxed state is the foundation for actually enjoying your life.

Hey friend, welcome back.

If you're new here, my name's Jill and I help women step into their power,

tap into their divine feminine and become their best self,

live their best life.

So if that's something you want to do,

you should subscribe and stick around.

And if you want more from me,

if you want to dive deeper into being a relaxed woman i have my deep dive feminine energy course

or any of my other digital products or courses they're all linked down below

so what do i mean

when i say being relaxed is a state of being most

of us think of it like getting to relax taking a

break you know something we earn after a hard day

or a long week or we operate from stress

and anxiety all year and then we book a five-day vacation in the bahamas

so that we can relax and recover

that is the wrong approach that's not being a relaxed woman that's being a stressed woman who occasionally takes breaks

and let's be real even

when you give yourself those breaks you're probably still stressing about something

or feeling anxious for some reason

but a truly relaxed woman on the other hand is where relaxed is her baseline it's the state

that she operates from the majority of the time she's relaxed

while she works she's relaxed while she's tidying up her bedroom she's relaxed

while she's driving to her appointment she's relaxed while she watches a movie.

She's relaxed while she's going about life and that relaxed state lives inside her nervous system.

That's what we want to cultivate,

a relaxed way of being,

not just a state that we try to escape to every now and then.

Okay, so in this video,

we're going to go over why you're not able to live in this relaxed state,

like the most common reasons,

because there's not just one thing and it can be different for different people

and what needs to shift and what we need to do to start becoming that relaxed woman.

And before I get into it,

something that I've always loved is making affirmation tracks and subliminals,

I absolutely feel a difference when I listen to them.

And I actually made one specifically for this concept of being a relaxed woman and being in your relaxed feminine energy.

And so I thought I'd share the one that I made with you just in case you want it.

It's linked in the description.

It's free.

You can grab it if you want and listen to it as many times as you want.

And I hope it helps you.

So let's get into the why.

You have to understand why this is happening and what's holding you back or else you're never going to get anywhere.

So here's the thing.

And it's actually really simple.

When you can't relax, that means that your body and your subconscious mind are prioritizing something else over relaxation.

Let me say that again,

because that is a very important part of the video.

Okay.

No matter how much you want to relax,

your body has decided that something else matters more right now.

So no matter how much time you give yourself,

no matter how much free time you have,

no matter how much you tell yourself to chill out

and no matter how many candles you light and how many baths you take.

Your body is prioritizing for something else.

So the question is, is what is it prioritizing?

Because relaxation should be our baseline state as human beings.

So what is it prioritizing?

This is different for different people,

but let me walk you through the most common roots of this problem

and you're probably going to recognize yourself in one or two of them.

One, your body is prioritizing safety over relaxation.

Your nervous system isn't here to keep you happy and relaxed.

That's not its job.

Its job is to keep you alive.

And to do that job,

your nervous system is constantly scanning for threats.

And when it anticipates any sort of danger,

it turns on the stress response in your body.

That is what it is supposed to do.

But as you probably know,

sometimes our nervous systems can get a little finicky and a little extra sensitive and reactive,

especially if we experienced a lot of stress or instability earlier in our life.

And because our nervous system learns to be more reactive,

it can start turning on that threat response when it's not even needed.

It'll start anticipating danger even when there's none there.

And when your nervous system senses the threat of danger,

that will always, always take priority over relaxation.

Always.

You get an email from your boss and the tone is a little weird.

Uh-oh, I might be in trouble.

Danger.

You get a bill in the mail and it's a little higher than you thought it would be.

100

Uh oh, I'm not safe.

101

My finances keep falling apart.

102

What if this keeps happening?

103

Danger.

104

Even if you're sitting on a beach in the Bahamas

105

and you know that you should feel totally relaxed right now

106

and you paid a lot of money to feel relaxed right now,

107

but instead your mind starts spinning about what's waiting for you

108

when you get home or if you remember to pay that bill or whether something bad is happening while you're away.

109

Danger.

110

None of these are actual dangerous situations,

111

but to a reactive nervous system,

112

they feel like it or they feel like they could be.

113

So it stays on alert.

114

And when you try to relax,

115

your nervous system literally won't let you.

116

Because to your body, staying alert is more important than being relaxed.

117

What's the point of being relaxed if you're about to get hurt?

118

Your body would rather have you anxious and safe than relaxed and caught off guard.

119

Number two, your body is prioritizing feeling worthy over feeling relaxed.

120

Almost all of us learn growing up,

121

to some extent that our worthiness as a person is tied to what we do and what we produce.

122

That we have to be doing something,

123

achieving something, contributing something to be a worthy individual.

124

And if we're not worthy, then who are we?

125

Am I still going to be loved?

126

Am I still going to be safe?

127

Am I still going to be important?

128

You know, when you were a kid,

129

if you felt like when you got straight A's,

130

your parents loved you more,

131

then you probably started to embody more of this belief.

132

And if we don't unlearn that belief,

133

that your worthiness and your value as a person is directly tied to your output and your productivity.

134

It'll keep pushing you to always be on,

135

always be doing something, perfectionism tendencies, never resting, never relaxing.

136

Because feeling unworthy is an awful feeling.

137

And we often correlate it with feeling unloved, unwanted, and replaceable.

138

So your body decides proving our worth is the priority.

139

Producing is the priority.

140

Doing is the priority.

141

Relaxation?

142

That can happen another time.

143

I don't want to be unloved.

144

I don't want to be unwanted.

145

I don't want to not be valuable.

146

And so you stay on all day.

147

Even when you're cooking dinner,

148

you're thinking about tomorrow's to-do list.

149

Or even when you're with your husband,

150

you're calculating what needs to get done.

151

Even when you're driving somewhere, you're mentally drafting emails.

152

You can't be relaxed because your body is always pushing you towards

153

that next thing to do to stay worthy and stay valuable.

154

So that state of relaxation,

155

it never comes because there is always more that you can be doing.

156

And so this belief keeps you in a trap

157

and you will never be able to be a relaxed woman because your body is prioritizing feeling worthy,

158

feeling loved, feeling important, feeling valuable over feeling relaxed.

159

It doesn't think that the two can go together.

160

Three, your body is prioritizing control over relaxation.

161

If your body thinks that if you don't stay in control mode,

162

aka managing every detail and staying one step ahead of everything,

163

that life might spiral out of control and that everything's going to fall apart,

164

well then why would your body relax?

165

Your body is prioritizing being in control and being on top of everything instead of relaxation.

166

But when you look at a relaxed woman,

167

I want you to think about it.

168

What's actually different about her?

169

It's not just that she wakes up a little early every day to take it slow in the morning.

170

What's really different about a relaxed woman,

171

the core of it is that she trusts life.

172

She trusts that things are going to work out.

173

She trusts herself to handle whatever comes.

174

She trusts that even if something inconvenient happens or the plans change or if life throws a curveball,

175

she will be okay.

176

You can only drop your grip on control if you have trust.

177

Think about it.

178

It's like when you're in a relationship with a man who you do not trust.

179

You don't trust that they're going to do what they say.

180

You don't trust that they're going to be able to handle what comes.

181

What happens?

182

You start to become controlling.

183

Same with life.

184

If you don't trust life,

185

you'll step into control mode.

186

And when control becomes the priority, relaxation never happens.

187

So these are the three big deeper reasons that I've found that will block you from ever being a relaxed woman.

188

Either when she doesn't trust that she's safe,

189

so she stays on alert.

190

She doesn't trust that she's worthy without producing,

191

so she's constantly in doing mode.

192

Even if not physically, it's happening mentally.

193

Or she doesn't trust life and the flow of life,

194

so she controls everything.

195

And it doesn't matter how much free time you have.

196

If you struggle with one of these or all of these,

197

your baseline state won't be relaxed.

198

You know, about two or three years ago,

199

I started outsourcing a bit more,

200

and I started buying back my time.

201

And when I did, when I got more of my time back,

202

and I had so much more time to chill,

203

it didn't automatically make me more chill and relaxed.

204

Because no matter how much time you have,

205

until that underlying thing gets addressed,

206

your body will put relaxation on the back burner.

207

It is simply prioritizing for something else.

208

Which none of these things are overnight quick fixes.

209

You know, healing your nervous system,

210

untangling your worth from your productivity,

211

learning to trust life and not control everything.

212

I realize it's not going to be an overnight fix for you,

213

but once you get honest with yourself and figure out and identify what your body is prioritizing for instead,

214

you can start actively working on

215

that rather than just trying to like book yourself a massage here and then and hope that makes you feel better.

216

I just want you to think about that.

217

Relaxation is actually your natural state.

218

It just gets blocked when your body decides that something else needs your attention more.

219

Now those are the deeper blocks,

220

but beyond those, there's a lot more that goes into being a relaxed woman

221

and things that you can kind of start doing today.

222

So let's get into those.

223

The first thing is to slow down and stop the rush.

224

To be a relaxed woman,

225

it comes from the right mindset.

226

Yes, that's very important.

227

But what I think a lot of people underestimate

228

and don't realize is that the mind is constantly taking cues from the body.

229

Like you have to understand here,

230

your nervous system is constantly scanning two things at all times.

231

What's happening outside in your environment, right?

232

And also what's happening inside your body.

233

And it uses your body as one of the most reliable signals as what's actually going on.

234

If your body is moving calmly,

235

your muscles are relaxed, your nervous system assumes that everything is probably fine.

236

If your body is rushing and tense,

237

you know, quick stressful movements,

238

breathing really shallow breaths, even if it doesn't see

239

that there's anything in your environment that's dangerous the nervous system figures ah something must be wrong even

240

if nothing actually is even if your nervous system is scanning the environment around you

241

and doesn't notice anything wrong it doesn't pick up on any threats

242

if your body is tense like that it'll assume

243

that i must be missing something in the environment

244

because why else is the body reacting like this your body

245

is the most valuable data your nervous system uses to determine its state.

246

So my point is that that physical body tension,

247

that frantic energy, the clenched muscles,

248

the hurrying, that will keep your nervous system on alert mode, on stress mode.

249

So if you want to feel like a more relaxed woman,

250

like at the nervous system level,

251

at the soul level, start with the body.

252

This is the easiest thing to do because it is purely physical.

253

And once you start really paying attention,

254

you'll notice that most of us are tense and rushing around for no reason.

255

We're running up and down the stairs.

256

We're washing the dishes as fast as we can.

257

We're eating, standing up.

258

We're replying to work emails with our jaws completely clenched.

259

We're driving with our shoulders all tight.

260

None of that is required.

261

And our nervous system is picking that up.

262

It's reading it and going,

263

oh my gosh, I need to prioritize for safety because something must be happening.

264

Relaxation?

265

No, I'm not going to let that happen right now.

266

If you ever look at a relaxed woman,

267

you'll see this in how she moves.

268

Her muscles are just a little bit more relaxed.

269

she's looser you'll see her hips flow a little bit more

270

when she walks she's not rushing from one thing to the next her body is relaxed

271

and you can feel this in her aura too

272

so start with the body first relax your muscles unclench your jaw relax your shoulders let your hips move

273

when you walk stop rushing to and from everything stop rushing through every single task

274

that you have to do today you are not running out of time you can relax next is

275

that a relaxed woman actually builds rest and spaciousness and breaks into her life.

276

If you're running at 120% capacity every single day,

277

then how do you think your nervous system is going to feel?

278

Women who are naturally relaxed do not overload their plate.

279

They don't overcommit to way too much.

280

They're not afraid to delegate when they could use the help.

281

And basically they've built room into their life for decompression and not just constant productivity.

282

Now I'm not a religious person,

283

but something that i do really love is

284

that a lot of religions actually have a built-in day of rest christians have sundays as their day of rest

285

and i believe the jewish religion has sabbath

286

which is like friday night to saturday night as their day

287

of rest different forms of this exist in different religions

288

and different traditions all over the world i think there's something really wise about

289

that

290

that we've lost you know it's not oh you can rest

291

once you've done this once you're feeling burnt out you can

292

rest only once you've done enough they built rest into the

293

week into their life it's part of the rhythm of their life it's just how they operate

294

and i think that

295

that difference is key a relaxed woman doesn't just rest to recover she rests

296

because it's part of who she is it's part of her

297

natural state here's the thing taking breaks does not just all of a sudden create a relaxed life

298

but they do support it you have to be intentional about building a life

299

that has space and rest woven into it not just something

300

that you escape to and listen you can have everything you want in this life the career,

301

the family, whatever, but you can't have all of it operating at 100% all the time.

302

Life doesn't work like that.

303

There are seasons.

304

And you will never be a relaxed woman if you're trying to do all things at max capacity all at once.

305

Are you in a career busy season?

306

It's okay if your social life is a little bit quieter right now.

307

Do you have a young baby?

308

Let your fitness be lighter and less intense right now.

309

Building a business?

310

It's okay if some of the home stuff slides sometimes.

311

Another thing relaxed women do differently is that they don't catastrophize little things and they let small things stay small.

312

Life is going to be annoying sometimes.

313

You know, the traffic gets bad.

314

The flight gets delayed.

315

Your kids spill something.

316

Your husband forgot something.

317

Let small things stay small.

318

You will notice this pattern in chronically anxious and stressed women over and over again.

319

When something happens, an inconvenience,

320

yes, something annoying happens, they spiral and they flip out and it becomes this huge deal.

321

So the traffic isn't just a little bit of traffic.

322

It's, oh, this always happens to me.

323

This is going to ruin my entire day.

324

Of course, today of all days,

325

I'm going to be late.

326

Yes, it's an inconvenience, but it's not a crisis.

327

And when you treat these little things as a crisis and you react as if it is kind of like a crisis,

328

then again, your nervous system picks up on that,

329

picks up on your body cues because that's what it's designed to do.

330

And it's going to turn on fight or flight mode and keep you in stress mode.

331

My mother, may she rest in peace,

332

she was the most amazing mother and had many amazing qualities,

333

but she did this.

334

She would kind of flip out a little over the slightest inconveniences and the slightest stressors.

335

You know, everything was a big deal.

336

And watching her live her life like

337

that kind of taught me to do the exact opposite because she was the most stressed woman I knew.

338

To be a relaxed woman,

339

you must trust the flow of life.

340

Hiccups that happen in your life can just be hiccups and nothing more.

341

Next time an annoying inconvenience happens,

342

like bad traffic or whatever,

343

something that stresses you out a little bit,

344

but it's not a crisis.

345

As much as you want to react and spiral,

346

accept the annoyance for what it is and stop fighting it.

347

The traffic is bad.

348

Okay.

349

The flight is delayed.

350

Okay.

351

I forgot to pack my favorite dress that I bought just for this vacation.

352

Okay.

353

If you can't change anything,

354

then what is that stress actually doing for your life?

355

And it's the fight that creates that spiral,

356

the fight against the stress, the resistance to it.

357

You don't have to like it.

358

You don't have to be happy about it.

359

But once you drop the fight, so does the stress.

360

And sometimes you can just let small things be small.

361

And lastly, there's another aspect of this that hardly ever gets talked about.

362

So many women are blocked from living a relaxed life,

363

and they get to the point where relaxation isn't even enjoyable anymore

364

because they've become so detached from play and pleasure and their feminine energy.

365

Relaxation is a feel-good state.

366

It's a pleasure state.

367

And when you become so disconnected from fun and pleasure and romanticizing your life,

368

when you struggle to access pleasure and feel pleasure,

369

then there will be no relaxation state.

370

And if you've been stuck in your masculine energy for so long and really stuck in doing mode and output mode,

371

achieving, producing, optimizing for so long,

372

the part of you that actually feels pleasure can start to go dormant and it's almost like a muscle.

373

It's like you can't even really feel it anymore.

374

You sit down to relax and you don't even know what to do with yourself.

375

Your hobbies feel like work.

376

Your meals are just purely functional.

377

There's no joy in getting dressed anymore.

378

Where did the pleasure go?

379

Where did the pleasure go in your life?

380

This isn't a relaxation problem.

381

It's a pleasure problem.

382

It's a feminine energy disconnect.

383

This is one of the biggest signs a woman has lost her connection to her feminine energy.

384

Pleasure isn't a part of her life anymore and it isn't easily accessed.

385

And therefore being a relaxed woman becomes impossible.

386

Learning how to turn on and access your feminine energy is learning how to let things feel good again.

387

And I teach all of this in my deep dive feminine energy course.

388

It'll transform the way that you live your life and the way that you feel,

389

and it'll teach you how to be a magnetic woman again.

390

Reconnecting to my feminine energy quite literally changed my life,

391

my health, my relationships, my nervous system,

392

and helped me become that relaxed woman connected to play and pleasure again.

393

And if that's something you feel called to explore,

394

the link for that is down below.

395

Now, like I said, being a relaxed woman is heavily tied to the nervous system,

396

which is not surprising.

397

But in this video here,

398

I break down exactly how to heal your nervous system.

399

And I promise you this video will make it make sense.

400

It's such a big, confusing topic,

401

but this video breaks it down in a way that you've probably never heard before.

402

So I'll see you over there.

403

Bye.

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
