E. Empowerment

Post by Admin on Sat Mar 08, 2008 10:24 am

What does empowerment mean? Being empowered to heal your eating disorder for example, means that you are taking control over your situation. When you are empowered, you grow your skills to help better serve yourself. What desicions can you make that can help you take control over your life. Those are what empowers you.

Self-empowerment in its simplest form means taking charge of your own life, illness and care. Another way of putting it is to say that self-empowered individuals do not give away their power or allow others to infantalize them. So when you decide to heal your eating disorder you are empowering yourself to do so. Making the right decisions on your course of action is taking control. It is being empowered.

What do you feel when you are empowered? Like you can conquer anything? I do!

So how can you be empowered? Easy! Take time to learn the skills in the program as you go along. Spend time really working through the exercises and as you do you gain more knowledge and skills that truly empower you.
