I'm a Type 2. I am a Subtle, Soft Woman. Your probably wondering what in the world I am talking about. Well, I have a friend here in good ole Cedar City who belongs to the most amazing dressing program. When she first explained it to me I thought " I don't think I need help dressing myself". Then I noticed how awesome she looked EVERYDAY! She felt good about herself, not just her appearance. I got curious, and she explained the program to me more in depth. The program is called Dressing Your Truth by Carol Tuttle. I decided to purchase the program, (its a three hour online course) and after taking the course I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off me. I learned about how wrong the fashion industry is and how it has made me feel about myself. I used to think that I needed to be a size 6 or smaller to look good, that I needed to have higher cheek bones, bigger lips and bigger boobs. I have changed my way of thinking for the first time in 30 years! I feel GREAT! I no longer talk or think bad thoughts about myself. I have learned to embrace my "faults" and have learned that my "faults" are actually gifts! I like to worry, put others needs before my own, and I want to be heard. I always thought that being shy was a bad thing and so I went out of my comfort zone and made myself LOUD, BRIGHT, sometimes inappropriate around others and I would even embarrass myself! I just wanted to be heard!
This program focuses on your natural movement, who you are inside, your personality and not your body shape or even skin tone. I has to do with your Energy. You probably think I'm crazy right about now right?! Ill explain what Energy Profiling is. This definition comes from Carol Tuttles Dressing your truth website: Energy Profiling extends far beyond personality profiling. Bringing a new level of accuracy, by analyzing body language, physical features, thought and feeling process, gifts and talents, in addition to personality behaviors. WHEW! There are 4 types of women, men, and children. This program focuses on women.
1. The type 1 woman: this woman is Bright , Animated and LOUD! She has lots of energy and likes to be the center of attention.
2. The type 2 woman: This woman is Soft, Subtle, and quiet. She is comforting and calming. She gets along with others and creates balance in crazy situations.
3. The type 3 woman: This woman is Rich, Dynamic and Hott! She is high in energy and gets things done. She can multi task like no other and very strong.
4. The type 4 woman: This woman is Bold, Striking, and Still. She has the lowest movement out of the 4 types, and likes to perfect things. This woman has her head on straight and her ducks all in a row.
By taking Carol Tuttles course online, I have learned about what kind of woman I really am. I feel like this has helped me not only dress how I feel, but it has answered so many questions I have had about myself, like why am I so crazy, ugly, fat, depressed. Why don't I fit in with my friends and why do they like me? I'm not crazy! My depression stems from trying to be someone I'm not, and moving against my natural movement. I am not ugly, in fact EVERY WOMAN is BEAUTIFUL! Finally, so what If I'm a little over weight, I look great in what I am wearing now. The attention of others no longer goes straight to what I have on, it goes right up to my face. People see me for who I am and more important, I see me for who I really am. I have always thought that its important for every woman to know who she is. Because of this program I don't focus on losing weight every day. THIS IS A BIG THING FOR ME!
I am a Type 2 woman, my secondary is a Type 1. I finally connect with myself in so many ways. I'm going to be OK. I know now that worrying about things and feeling left out is natural for me. I no longer think that so and so doesn't like me because I'm not loud or beautiful enough.
This program has changed my life. I now understand my husband more and like him more than I did before. I know the movement and personality traits of my kids. I understand Kathryn more than I ever thought possible. Life is awesome! My friend Kristen introduced me to this and it has been a blessing to me and my family.
