Hi Everyone

I've just published an article on your personal power. So many of us let other people take our power from us. Let me know what you think:

Taking Your Power Back

Bravo

I think your article is well said and is clearly objective as well as gives good points for centering yourself and gasining back your power.

I've currently have lost mine but I am working on getting myself centered and getting back that power. It is amazing how it truly makes all the difference in life and your mental well being as well.

Blessed be......

Great article! I really changed my life after reading many of Wayne Dyer's books too.

I think it is easier to hold on to your personal power as you age. I know I worry much less about what others think and say at this stage in my life than I did 20 years ago.

Well written article and very true! I've only recently started to explore this issue myself and was astounded by the extent to which I subconciously let others lead me away from what I could and probably should have been doing! I recently had a baby and for the first time since I left school some 15 years ago, I have had the TIME to actually think about this! I'm now educating myself in marketing so I can within the next three years be working for myself with all debt paid off :o) Good luck and best wishes to all. Thanks Lauren for the great read

Hey Lauren! Long time no post!
I liked your article very much. Being one who is accused by my partner of being a control freak, lol, I've run the gamut of being hurt, offended, tried to be more passive, and finally gave up and determined that I am who I am. I'm a kind, strong, stable woman who balances checking in on the needs of others with moving ahead and getting things done. I'm also 50, so that might be a coming of age thing too. You can't ever change anyone else, just your own response to them. And yes, once you change your behaviour, you may just get "change-back" behaviour from them. Sometimes what is good for one's own emotional and mental health is not viewed the same by even those who love us. So look after your heart and soul... and use your power wisely!!


Be kinder than you need to be. Everyone is dealing with something.

Great article Lauren! This is something I've been working on the last couple of years. It's funny, before I never realized I was giving my power away. But one day I had to stand up to a relative that is very bossy and opinionated. My little boy was standing there watching me, and I knew I had to stand up; I couldn't cave in. What a LESSON that was!

Hi Trishh

Lovely to hear from you again! Some people find it hard to accept someone that can't be manipulated or put down. As you say that really is their issue to deal with. Fortunately there are plenty of others that love to be with people who are fully centred in their power, so some of the faces around you may change. I know they have around me wink

Thank you Deanna. I agree, knowing our children see us as role models can really make us step up to the mark and be more conscious of what we are doing.
