The Inspiration behind Shakti Queen

I believe happiness in our intimate relationships can change the world. It’s also true that most human suffering comes from feeling unhappy with our closest connections. It’s no secret women thrive by having good relationships, and we wither away without them. Yet, an Alpha Woman, an empowered woman, a Shakti Queen does not entirely define herself solely through her relationships. She realizes that what matters are not the type of relationship she may have, it is the way she relates within each relationship that matters.

The fastest way we can change the world is by changing the way women relate to life. That is, when each woman rejects her lack of worthiness, when she refuses to keep doing what does not work, she begins to sense an immense possibility of an entirely different way of moving through experience. This emerging awareness usually comes as a result of some crisis, after a long period of ‘sleep’ or after hitting certain walls so many times she finally says, ‘enough’. She starts to see that the very things she saw as major roadblocks are actually crossroads to new ways of relating with life.

Sometimes boldly, sometimes awkwardly, she begins the real revolution. She starts to own her remarkable ability to feel. Instead of being blown over or pressed down by overwhelming feelings, indecisive, conflicting emotions and the constant build up of more things to do, she starts to crave another way. Instinctively, she starts seeking something new. Things have been too hard, too harsh and there’s been too much struggle. She has a nose for death, and she knows something has to give.

This woman starts to revolt. If she’s smart, she’ll skip the unimportant, petty revolts and go for the big ones, such as refusing to close her eyes to lies. She refuses going into ‘Cinderella’s sleep’ whenever she meets a challenge unknown to her. Instead of waiting for Prince Charming to wake her from her unfelt dreams, she starts to feel. At all costs, she feels. She starts to move with change instead of fighting it. She leans into what she resists and she starts to open. When she’s ready she moves directly into what challenges her most.

When women do this the world evolves into a happier, more mature place to live.

These are the thoughts woven into the fabric of the last many years that have inspired Shakti Queen retreats ~ a place for women to evolve into the mysterious, magical beings we are.
