Empowered Living Skills
The term “Empowerment” is bantered around a lot in the “new age” communities. To some, it means to “Stand in your power”. What does this mean though? To live from a place of strength? That’s not as easy as it first appears. With expectations from family, friends, and society, it is hard to live the life that is right for you.
The societal expectation is that everyone works towards being more empowered, to have their “act” together and be a well-balanced member of society. Society demands that everyone achieve their, often very public, list of hopes and dreams. You are expected to have a good job, own a house, be in a stable relationship, and have two point five children. This is not what true empowerment looks like for most people.
To me, being empowered simply means to be living within the full strength of your personal purpose and truth. This sounds simple. The hitch is that most people havnt’t a clue what their strengths and purpose are. In past civilisations, knowing ourselves was easier. For example: If you had natural skills for the arts, someone would see it early in your life and help you to foster that skill. Adults watched the children, to see what the child’s nature led them to do. Then the community guided the child into a productive use of these skills. Once the child had claimed these skills as part of who they were as a person, the skill was claimed as what we refer to as “soul medicine”.
Soul medicine is not always as tangible as “I’m an artist” or “I’m a builder”. Some soul medicine is “When I’m in a group, change happens easily, I’m a catalyst” or “I can how a system flows when others can’t”. Some people have an affinity with an element or animal as part of their medicine. Our soul medicine is there to support us to achieve our life purpose.
When we claim our soul medicine, we have support to truly live within our soul purpose.
These empowerment courses have three focuses
Find your soul medicine.- Make physical things to represent your soul strengths.
Eliminate doubt in yourself.
Learn to embody the power of your soul medicine and claim your empowered life.
I have run this training in two different ways before. One where we do projects together in a day workshop setting and one where we learn a concept, then go away and make items to bring back and share in the next class
Prices for this class vary depending on venue and what materials are used for any creating of medicine.- For an evening option, they will be around $20
For a day workshop option, it will range from $160 to $250.
