​March Theme: Cultivating Authenticity

It is often said, “Be yourself because everyone else is already taken.” It can feel scary and a risk to be authentic in a world that is trying to fit square pegs in round holes. It starts with, “Know Thyself.”

To live out loud means for us to fully express who we are and who we have come here to be. Throughout this month, we will explore the practice of cultivating authenticity which empowers us to step into all areas of our life in integrity with our real authentic self.

Week 1- Title: "Everyone Else is Already Taken"


It has been said, “Be yourself because everyone else is already taken,” and while we may nod our heads in agreement, we find ourselves sacrificing ourselves in order to fit in and for others to like us and approve of us. Starting with our authentic Self as an expression of the Divine, we will explore a means for us to recover a consciousness of our wholeness.

Week 2- Title: "Dropping the Masks and Bushels"


Human beings wear masks at different times for different reasons. We wear masks for fun during holidays and at parties. Masks are worn in theater and the arts. During the pandemic, masks are worn to help prevent infection. And not all the masks are physical. There are times and situations that we wear “masks”, changing or hiding who we are, to protect our heart and emotions.

Week 3- Title: "Boundaries Build Bridges"


Boundaries are where we end, and the other begins. Nancy Levin in her book, Setting Boundaries Will Set You Free, defines boundaries as “a limit that you set to define what you will or will not do, or what you will or will not accept or tolerate from others.” If we desire to express ourselves authentically then it is up to us to become familiar with and clarify these boundaries for ourselves and others. Boundaries are the container in which our authentic self-resides.

Week 4- Title: "No Approval Needed"


There is no way to talk about authenticity without addressing the elephant in the room: the feelings of shame and unworthiness. Shame is universal in the human experience. It is the feeling that we are “not enough.” It is a fear of being unlovable that convinces us that if we work harder, change ourselves, keep some parts hidden from others and maybe, when we finally become enough, we will then be worthy of love and connection with others.
