I mentioned in a previous blog that I had been away on a mind, body, soul weekend. Much as I love yoga, even I would find 8 hours a day a bit much so I decided to tap into a couple of workshops instead.
The first was Love Your Body Love Your Life, the presenter Beverley Drumm (pictured), an ex Management Consultant who completely changed her life and now runs inspirational classes in Nia Technique and Kundalini Yoga, both slow to catch on in the UK but making their presence felt.
Beverley began the presentation by asking how many of us in the room (about 35 I guess) loved their body and their life. I wasn’t surprised to see only 2 hands rise. In fact, I was surprised that any were raised at all. Isn’t that so sad?
What is it about society today that says we all have to be so perfect and that we need to have it all? I think, as women, we are always looking for something else in our lives – and I’m no different here – but perhaps we should sometimes just stop and smell the coffee, by giving thanks for what we have in the here and now. The future doesn’t exist, only the present is real.
Come on ladies, celebrate who you are, embrace your unique gifts and talents and live a joyful life. It’s the only one you have. Don’t like the way you look? Then see an image professional who can help you discover who you are and dress authentically. That’s what we’re here for.
