The Goddess Within

Namaste
Such a beautiful word and when translated into English it becomes a beautiful phrase. Roughly translated it mean " We greet the God within you". What a wonderful wayto greet someone. To greet a total stranger and acknowledge the great worth within that person. To see the god/goddess in that person. How that must make the other person feel! There are many other beautiful and poetic meanings to this saying.

"I honor the Spirit in you which is also in me." -- attributed to author Kabir Chopra
"I honor the place in you in which the entire Universe dwells, I honor the place in you which is of Love, of Integrity, of Wisdom and of Peace. When you are in that place in you, and I am in that place in me, we are One."
"I salute the God within you."
"Your spirit and my spirit are ONE." -- attributed to Lilias Folan's shared teachings from her journeys to India.[citation needed]
"That which is of the Divine in me greets that which is of the Divine in you."
"The Divinity within me perceives and adores the Divinity within you."
"All that is best and highest in me greets/salutes all that is best and highest in you."
"I greet the God within."


Such beautiful words to say to a person. I think often times we as women forget that we are Goddess. That whether your are the CEO of a major company, a stay at home mother, or a college student, inside we are all the same. We are all divine and we need to embrace that divine spirit within ourselves and help the women in our lives see it too. That is why I have designed this blog to help us as women reconnect with ourselves. I will be talking about ways to help ourselves physically, mentally, and spiritually. We give so much to our families, communities and friends that we often overlook what we need to be giving ourselves. So let's start today! Today I want you to look in the mirror and remind yourself that you are a Goddess. Find one thing today that makes you feel like a Goddess and do it! Whether it's tackling a project you've been dying to do, dancing to music, trying a new class at the gym, getting your hair done, painting your nails with your daughter, or writing poetry. Find something that you love to do and do it! You will be amazed at how you feel.

Namaste :)
