The Real Woman Creed

What does it feels to be a woman? Women all over the world are always considered to be the weakest species and are not given the same rights as men in society. Why is that so? Is it the women themselves or the fault of the society? Do you think we as women should take responsibility of changing the world too?

“The Real Woman Creed”

I believe that within me lies an extraordinary radiance, and I commit to letting my light loose in the world.

I believe that the source of my power and wisdom is in the center of my being, and I commit to acting from this place of strength.

I believe that I possess an abundance of passion and creative potential, and I commit to the expression of these gifts.

I believe that the time has come to let go of old notions and unhealthy attitudes, and I commit to reexamine what I have been told about beauty and dismiss what insults my soul.

I believe that negative thoughts and words compromise my well being, and I commit to thinking and speaking positively about myself and others.

I believe that young women are in need of positive role models, and I commit to being an example of authenticity and self love.

I believe in the relationship between my well being and that of the planet, and I commit to a life of mindfulness that regards all living beings as holy and worthy of my love.

I believe that it is my spiritual responsibility to care for my body with respect, kindness, and compassion, and I commit to balancing my life in such a way that my physical being is fully expressed and nurtured.

I believe that joy is an essential part of wellness, and I commit to removing obstacles to joy and creating a life that is full of exuberance.

I believe that a woman who loves herself is a powerful, passionate, attractive force and I commit from this day forward to loving myself deeply and extravagantly.
