Mothers have the power to awaken and empower themselves!

By Beverly Pickard.

Do you ever find yourself saying yes to something you really don’t have time for or that doesn’t fill you up? Do you say yes to family members and friends because you feel guilty if you say NO? Do you find yourself always trying to please others but never having the time or energy to do what makes you happy? When you do say NO does it come from a place of love and power or from a place of guilt, shame, grief or anger?

As mothers we often say yes so we “look good” to other moms.  Come on . . . we all envy the moms who seem to have it all together – perfect body, hair, clothes, always saying yes to help at the kids’ school, soccer practice or charity event. Why are we jealous of those other moms? Is it because we want to be just like them or is it because we don’t know what we want?  We don’t need to feel pressured into being a person that we aren’t, or trying to “keep up” with everyone else.  That sense of feeling less than or not enough as a mother, wife, daughter or friend leaves us feeling empty and inadequate inside.  That little voice inside us begins to tell us that we aren’t good enough, smart enough, pretty enough or talented enough and we believe it!  Why do we believe it and give away our power to those beliefs?  Because:

 We haven’t taken the time to evaluate those beliefs and realize they are sabotaging our happiness, our dreams and our desires. 

So how do you find your power and the courage to live your life, your dreams and desires?  By embracing your power as a woman.  You have more strength, courage and knowledge than you give yourself credit for!  You are ENOUGH! And by embracing your feminine power and living in the essence of your inner goddess, you will begin to live a life filled with love, self-acceptance and courage.  Honour the woman who lives inside you: a beautiful, intelligent, strong, confident, loving, caring, trusting goddess that embraces her strength and power as a woman! It’s time to peel back the layers, let the petals of your life unfold and reconnect with the woman that exists in ALL of us.  As moms we often give all of ourselves to those around us, feeling tired, heavy and exhausted.  We can be nurturing, loving, caring mothers and still be women.  Yes, let me say that again:

“You can be a nurturing, loving, caring mother and still be a confident, independent, vibrant, sensual, prosperous, playful WOMAN.”

How do we become that woman? We emerge by releasing all of the ‘stories’ from the past, understanding how they have shaped our beliefs and living our lives in our true essence.  What is your true essence?  Take a moment, close your eyes, breathe deeply and ask yourself,  “If I could be ANYTHING I wanted to be what would it be – how would it look – how would I feel?”  Now take that feeling – that feeling is your truth, it is your energy!  That inner goddess is speaking to you, showing you that you are more powerful than you can imagine.

Now ask yourself – do you really want to be that mom that seems to have it all together?  Does she really have it all together?  Do you know her truth?  Ask yourself,  “Does she feel as good on the inside as she looks on the outside?”  Do you?  Look at yourself in the mirror, ask yourself:

“What is MY truth?”

The next time you catch yourself saying yes to something or feeling guilty if you say no, ask yourself, “Does it fill me up or drain me?” If it fills you up and is aligned with your core values then by all means say YES. But if it drains you, adds one more thing to your already busy life and takes away from YOUR time then say NO with confidence, dignity and love. By following our truth, dreams and desires and blossoming into feminine strength,our light will shine brighter than ever. Our power will begin to vibrate at such a high level that everyone around us will begin to awaken to the new energy that surrounds us all.
