Women's Health: International Women's Day & You!

March 10, 2011 by thinkhappy

International Women's Day & You

It is with great excitement that I get to tell you about the event I hosted this week.  On Tuesday, March 8th, it was Women's International Day and women are celebrated all over the world.  In honor of this day, I asked local businesswomen, friends, and their friends to come to a celebration of women.  I also asked a Meditation Healer to come and do what's called a "creative visualization" meditation which helps to open you up to have clarity to your greatness within!

As a Holistic Health Coach and a Pilates Expert, much of my work is devoted to women empowerment, guiding them to find the answers within to what is limiting them to be their best self.  I truly believe that we have the power to create the realities we want, and all of the answers lie within.  What we probably do not think about is, just as your beautiful organic garden must be cultivated, so do our thoughts to make a conscious shift of our mindset.  This takes nurturing on a daily basis.  Then, and only then, we begin to connect the dots and when those sabotaging thoughts break through, we now have tools to use, allowing us to keep us on the path.  We all have blocks from experiences that are lying dormant; we must release that negative block by getting in touch with it, facing it head on, and moving forward.  For example, I have a great fear of speaking in public even though I am a Pilates Instructor.  For my health coaching, you don't have to public speak but it is better if you do.  I realized through the process that I had this fear because when I was in elementary school and the teacher called on me to read something, I might have pronounced a word wrong and felt less than because of that.  By digging into that limiting belief, I am much more open to public speaking and step by step, getting more comfortable with it.  I changed my belief system, and so can you!
 
Our special guest that evening was Melissa Foster, founder of the Women's Nest.  She was on speakerphone as she shared some thoughts about Women's International Day and how it related to how and why she founded the Women's Nest.  Everyone was so moved by what she had to say.  Kudos Melissa!
 
The evening was so successful, everyone left feeling uplifted and with a renewed sense of clarity.  They also went home to blog and comment on facebook asking for the next gathering.  I am now starting a women's group that will meet every month.  I am so excited!! 
 
Sending you love and light,
 
Lorna Sophocleous, HHC, Pilates Expert
