Celebrate Your Power This Women’s History Month
Throughout the ages, women have had to summon incredible strength and fortitude to overcome obstacles and blaze new trails. From the suffragists who fought for our right to vote to the trailblazing pioneers in fields like science, politics, arts and business, women have proven time and again that we are unstoppable forces.
This Women’s History Month, let’s tap into that ancestral warrior spirit and harness that power to become the heroes in our own lives. The truth is, every woman on this planet has the ability to manifest the reality they choose to experience. It is through daily personal work of self-care that leads to self-growth and grants us the ability to make daily decisions that align us with our highest visions, dreams, and goals.
For most women, this transformation begins when we change negative conversations we have with ourselves all day, every day. How many times have you looked in the mirror and criticized your body or beaten yourself up over a mistake? Those types of thoughts drain our life force and keep us stuck in patterns of self-abuse.
To become true warriors, we must first commit to developing a nurturing, loving relationship with ourselves. One powerful way to do this is by balancing our hormones with a high-quality liquid collagen supplement. Collagen is the most abundant protein in our bodies, giving strength and structure to our skin, hair, nails, bones, joints and more. Yet as we age, our natural collagen production declines. So, in efforts to support a healthy metabolism, balanced hormones, radiant skin and have a zest for life at any age, your first step has to be replenishing the missing collagen.
With a healthy digestive system and balanced hormones at our core, we can then begin our journey inward through contemplative practice and daily journaling. The simple act of putting pen to paper and directing our thoughts in this manner can be incredibly healing and insightful. Start by asking yourself some empowering questions. Simple examples are ‘What was the highlight of my day and why did it mean so much to me?’ or ‘what am I most proud of myself for?’ and then ask yourself what dreams or goals are you committed to manifesting in your life. What are you doing to make that happen or what can you be doing differently? As you continue to journal on a daily basis, you will start to notice any patterns of negative self-talk and begin to break those negative patterns. Progressing further, you will gain a better clarity on your innermost desires and the best ways for you to reach your destiny.
Now, to truly embody the essence of the self-actualized warrior woman, you must focus on movement, both the physical and the energetic. This means moving our bodies regularly with joy, like a brisk walk or maybe some aerobic exercise, even a simple dance around the house will create joyful movement. Equally as important, you have to make time for breathwork or meditative practices. You can start off once a day, but as you progress you will learn the benefit of this throughout the day. It’s when we move out of the stressed fight-or-flight mode and bring our nervous systems back into balance that we can operate from an intuitive, creative mindset. When our prefrontal cortexes are inline, we can then make wise, empowered decisions versus just going through the motions of daily life.
Adding these practices to your daily routine will activate your body’s natural ability to enter the rest, digest and rejuvenate state that is necessary for you to continue the path of a fiercely courageous warrior woman. This tantric tradition refers to the divine feminine life force energy as “shakti” – the sacred power that courses through all creation, allowing growth, pleasure and awareness to blossom. By committing to feeling grounded yet vibrant in our female bodies through movement and breath, we reclaim and honor our shakti essence.
Remember, no one will give you permission to stand in your truth and radiate your authentic power of self. That’s something we must choose and embody for ourselves each and every day, just as our ancestors did before us. So go forth this Women’s History Month, celebrating yourself as the capable, wise, life-giving warrior woman you were born to be! Change starts on the inside, through loving thoughts, care for your vessel, and commitment to your heart’s calling. The world needs warriors, are you ready?
