Ten Empowering Principles

SHIFT…

Awakening to the gift that I am

 

  • Awakening is taking responsibility for my consciousness.

  • Awakening is committing to asking questions, excited about the potential results.

  • Awakening is accepting that I am seldom upset for the reason I think I am.

  • Awakening is being 100% responsible for who I am and the life I am creating.

  • Awakening is giving up my addiction to what the world thinks about me.

  • Awakening is living life through acceptance, enjoyment and enthusiasm, unattached to a specific outcome.

  • Awakening is “being” rather than doing.

  • Awakening is answering honestly the question, “Does this person and/or situation empower me?”

  • Awakening is rejoicing in my essence, celebrating the integration of my sexuality, gender identity and spirituality.

  • Awakening is shifting to awareness about the gift that I am.
