Praise Her
January 2008

Praise
is literal food for feminine qualities. If you
want a woman to grow in her radiance, health,
happiness, love, beauty, power, and depth, praise
these qualities. Praise them daily, a number of
times.
- David Deida, Way of the Superior
Man
I have learned much from my
work as a SHiNE Agent. As a teacher, guide, and coach
facilitating brilliance in others, I have come
face-to-face with myself. Sometimes with joy, other
times with apprehension . In 2008, I am focusing on
walking the talk even more, as I work (and play) hard
to unleash the latent powers that lie dormant within. I
am pleased to note that, this year, I myself have a
coach and mentor to assist me on my journey to a more
rich and fulfilling expression of how Brilliance works
through me.
Becoming the client again has reminded me of the
courage that it takes to reach out for support. Through
my work, I learn more and more that the desire to be
acknowledged for our deepest essence is inherent and
universal. Nature intended that we create a web of
brilliant support around us to nourish our growth.
Thus, when our pride keeps us from reaching out for
connection with others, it does us a great disservice.
It often leads us to the most tragic disconnection that
can happen - disconnection with the divine spark
within.
The majority of my students and clients are women. This
month being the month of love, I feel compelled to
reach out to each one of you with a brilliant reminder.
You are an essential aspect of a Radiant and Powerful
Energy that deserves to be praised and worshipped
daily! Worshipped? By who? Well, by YOU, of course!
If you aren't sure how to gift yourself with the
awareness of self-love and put it into action in your
life, we can help. I invite you to attend a class or
schedule a coaching session soon. I am always honored
to facilitate a container for recognition,
self-celebration, right action, and praise. You are a
perfect and essential facet of the Divine Brilliance
alive in all of us. Self-love, when understood in its
purity, is far from an egoic pursuit. It is the
recognition of Oneness, not separation, that activates
our SHiNE. Let's work together to remind one another,
yes?
In 2008, I am more committed than ever to serving you
through a new program: The SHiNE Ministry. Visit my
blog to tag along as I experience various spiritual
communities, reporting on brilliant outlets in the
Portland area. Or, join me for a class, coaching
session, or New Earth SHiNE Circle in the coming weeks.
I look forward to seeing you soon.
With Love,
Candice
