Hello,
For many years I was a member of a wonderful group of women named ‘The Executive Women’s Forum’ (not that we were all ‘executive’ women as such).
We would meet for a breakfast meeting each month (at a yacht club with a glorious view) and usually had invited guest speakers who inspired and informed us about a whole range of topics. We also raised funds for various causes.
Our meetings always commenced with us all standing in a circle, holding hands with the women next to us (sometimes this was a hilarious squash when we had 40-50 ladies). We then chanted, three times, the following words:
I am well, I am lucky to be alive and I feel great.
It was always amazingly uplifting, unifying and convivial, with there being much laughter.
What was happening here?
It was our template for setting a positive agenda for our meeting.
- We were enforcing our belief we were healthy in mind, body and spirit
- We were putting a positive attitude on our circumstances in life
- We were raising our vibration to our highest level
We were a powerful and loving group of diverse, talented and successful women, who, through coming together and networking, as we did, were empowering each other and ourselves.
Recognising our sovereign selves who had achieved much and could continue to achieve with our quiet strength, determination, empathy and belief in ourselves was a prominent theme.
Belonging to such groups is healthy. Sadly, our group eventually disbanded as time moved on and the women’s circumstances changed – as they do. It was a precious time and shaped all of us in a most positive way.
A reminder – claim your sovereign self, always speak your truth, with love, no matter what your circumstances and stay connected with positive, loving people.
With love and joy,
Merriene
