Empowerment could be considered the act of investing oneself with more control and authority over one’s path.
It is based on the idea that giving people the knowledge, resources, motivation, skills and accountability for outcomes of their own lives will contribute to their self-determination to live a meaningful and purposeful life.
When someone has the power within themselves, they no longer take on the victim role and can better align themselves with the purpose and passion they have within so they can live and work with who you really are.
When you are empowered, you are fully aware of the challenges you face – and you see them with eyes wide open – but you know in your heart you have what it takes to navigate through them with strength and success.
In modern times there is often so much confusion on life’s best practices. We are confused by the inundation of information, we are too busy for our own good, and we often times neglect ourselves, our bodies, and our own needs.
At some point though, this catches up to us, sometimes humbly bringing us to our knees and opening our eyes that it is time for a change.
But what do we do about it?
I am a firm believer that the first thing we can do to empower ourselves is to be educated on HOW to empower ourselves. Whether that means we need to learn healthier ways to eat or to practice meditation and stress relief, it literally is up to US to learn exactly what it is our bodies need.
My goal is to help you help yourself learn how to become empowered to live your life to your fullest …
So, are you ready to live an empowered life?
