. . . MINDFULLY SHEINSPIRED™ WELLBALANCE RESHAPING™ ~
INNOVATIVE, HOLISTIC WOMIN-AFFIRMATIVE™ COUNSELING FOR YOU . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Our Mission Statement . . .
Putting Our Mission Statement Into A More Practical Framework
Now, please don't let the uniqueness of our Womin-Affirmative™ language be off-putting for you in any way, because we can assure you that the actual hands-on approaches are, in fact, pretty simple, straightforward, accessible and "doable." ~ a bit like the mindfulness approach, itself which when described seems to be a bit "dense" and daunting if you are new to it, but in time becomes really, really simple.
And if you've ever tried to learn another culture or new language style after the age of 11 or so, [like calligraphy or hip-hop lyrics or even texting, if you're new to them] then we're sure you can recall just how difficult it was for you initially ~ simply because you were so unfamiliar with the meanings and definitions of so much of what you initially read, heard or learned.
However, we're also sure that within a short time, words and context which had at first seemed bulky, dense and "difficult" to you eventually became simpler more facile as you came to be more and more familiar with them.
And similarly, you'll also find that our uniquely ReShaped™ Womin-Affirmative language becomes simpler to navigate through with use. You'll come to discover how our unique use of such Womin-Affirmative™ language is specifically purposed to assist you in making real and manageable Womin-Affirmative SheChanges™ in your life.
While you are engaged in our eclectic and dynamic blend of counseling or coaching approaches ~ you'll also be encouraged to use language, and personal meaning that will assist you to incrementally uproot and adjust any deeply internalized Self-depreciating, anti-womin™ patterns of beliefs or habits that are currently impeding your desired progress to living a happy, productive and SistahPeaceful(tm) lives.
You'll also learn just how it is that such deeply internalized beliefs are frequently the underlying causes of any irresolvable or immutable blockages and self-sabotaging patterns which can often frustrate or thwart some clients even as they work diligently toward realizing, maintaining or sustaining (ReShape™) a renewed sense of emotional, mental and physical wellbeing and inner-peace . . . and to live happy, productive and SistahPeaceful™ lives . . .
As do many eclectic & spirituality based practitioners, we believe that everyone's Soul Purpose is to learn and evolve. And so life's issues, problems and challenges are the way our Soul Selves learns, grows and assists us to know who we really are ~ which is why we're here ~ to actualize Our Knowing Purpose.
The goal of our SistahPeace RWCCS and our Womin-Affirmative(tm) approach is to help you to identify and resolve the underlying conflicts so that you will also become more aware of who you really are, and proactively learn to naturally honor your Authentic Soul Self as a way to live a more fulfilled and happy life.
Far-too often Self-denial and depreciation are two of the most pervasive patterns we see amongst wimmin™, because we are held captive in an unnatural, disorded, unconscionable denial of our Authentic Soul Self.
What this often means is that our clients have become disconnected from essential and very important parts of ourselves; for example, our feelings, instincts, power, intuition, voice, creativity, sexuality, dreams, passions, and/or their bodily vitality.
As a result we often experience a disheartened lack of Self-worth and therefore are unable to naturally accept, love and nurture ourselves. In order to heal and restore our innate peace of mind, we must reclaim and reconnect with these vitally important parts of ourselves.
Many wimmin™ are seduced by a surrogate "mainstream" culture into believing that our worth depends upon how we look and how materially productive we are. It's all about the external world of "doing".
Eventually, we find our Selves "stuck", aimlessly running around in surrealistic "emotional circles", never actually realizing the much desired and sought after "rewards" ~ a sense of fulfillment and true love - which are promised, yet elusive prizes for our superimposing a superficial passageway deep into the external realm of "false realities".
Our Authentic Self vested by our Divine Soul Self becomes desperate for this cycle to end; the true voice inside us warns us that something is "just not right", and becomes an inner-voice that will no longer remain silenced or forgotten.
This essential awareness of being "significantly derailed" from being who we really are, [our Authentic Self] often surfaces as the disordered symptoms of anxiety, panic, anger, mistrust, dissatisfaction, dispondence, depression, addiction and more.
"If you are going down a road . . .
and don't like what's in front of you . . .
and look behind you . . .
and don't like
what you see . . .
get off the road . . .
Create a new path ! . . ."
~ Elder Sistah Maya Angelou
How Do We Proactively ReShape™ ?
When our clients learn how to slow down and just "BE"; when we learn to make time to listen to our Authentic Soul Self; when we learn to make time to acknowledge and process our innate feelings; when we learn to make nurturing and loving our Selves our real purpose and calling; then we come to discover and naturally be who we truly are.
Then we learn to dare to naturally love our Selves without appology. Then we find a True Sense of [Self] fulfillment, which we'd previously sought in food, sex, drugs, status, perfect bodies and perfect careers.
When our clients come to realize that our "westernized" pleasure-seeking and "escapist" culture is unhealthy for us in countless ways; so much so that just being born into it, induces personal dis-ease and imbalance.
When we come to see how wimmin™ whose dispositions are often deemed to be "sweet", "sensitive", creative, intuitive, non-conformist, unconventual, etc., are unfortunately pre-disposed to readily internalizing Self-negating beliefs and Self-defeating patterns.
When our clients come to learn to effectively strip away the unwanted layers of Self-negation and Fear; we come to learn to affirm our own True Selves, our own True Voices, and we come to Proactively ReShape™ and live "on our own authentically holistic and Womin-Affirmative™ terms". . .
. . . We'll work with you . . .
. . . as you progressively resolve, minimize and make peace with any difficulties, crises, or distresses that have significantly impeded or derailed you . . .
We affirm that we can also learn to effectively strengthen our "emotional immune system" by learning how to love, honor and nurture our Selves. We can teach you how to use our proactive, Womin-Affirmative™ approach in order do successfully do this.
We can teach you how to mindfully re-connect with your Authentic Self, so that you can feel more confident, more Self-loving, content and more fully alive.
We can teach you how to compassionately nurture and love your Authentic Self; how to overcome and make peace with internalized fear, overly-critical Self-judgment and Self-loathing, through the use of a variety of eclectic and holistic Self-awareness and Womin-Affirmative™ techniques and approaches.
We can help you create to a SistahPeacefully WellBalanced™ lifestyle that is more meaningful, Self-affirming, joyously fulfilling and plain ole fun . . .
