Pushing Upward into Your Best Life
This workshop is designed for women who are rape survivors.
There is a way in which rape survivors move through their lives. Whether they were raped once or repeatedly. We can experience a disconnect from the present moment, a lack of interest in our present surroundings. We distance ourselves because we fear to get close, being abandoned. We are still trying to protect ourselves from the pain, humiliation, and lack of control.
Not everyone was abused by a Bill Cosby, or a Weinstein or a Moonves. Some of us were raped by family members. We were not in a position to leave or move away. Instead, we had to leave our bodies, block out the memory – until it returned – and it usually does – years later. And then, we remember every little detail. This is why I wrote my novel, Pushing Upward. I needed to experience the event and everything that led to the event, consciously.
Even though I was nine years old when I was raped, I never remembered it, until I was thirty-five. And when it all came back, I went ballistic! Since then, it has taken me years to forgive myself and the perpetrator. Years, to let go of feeling helpless and ashamed.
There are tools and techniques I have learned that can help all of us to move through life gracefully, I am convinced of it. For years I have offered workshops to help people move through their fear of marketing. Now, I want to offer a workshop specifically for women dealing with the repercussions of rape. Mainly, because I had to go through it myself. There are exercises that have supported me to move out of depression, lack of intimacy and victimization. I offered a similar course to women who recently left jail and it transformed their lives – giving them hope and a mandate for their future.
We are all in jail if we are not aligned with our BEST future, if we are not living a life of purpose and being in service to others.
If it’s time for you to align with your gifts and the multitude of ideas spinning around in your head. If it’s time to embrace a career, and a way of life that strengthens your talents and desires, connects you to your inner wisdom and develops your intuition so you no longer waiver – but have a direct course of action . . . so you can soar . . .
