By: Carl and Kenya Stevens

Book Released in Paperback October 21, 2008

Introduction

He won’t talk to me, look at me, or love me right now!

She gets so emotional – I just can’t take the crying and whining anymore!

He won’t open up to me, he goes into a cave – he won’t tell me what I did wrong.

She won’t be happy cooking, cleaning or looking after the children like a REAL woman.

I can’t stand HIM!

She needs to have her head checked out!

WE GIVE UP!

Most people believe that relationships are difficult, many have chosen to simply be alone rather than navigate the rough waters of lasting love. In fact, many believe that my husband and I are pretty crazy for writing this book. We make odd declarations of love to one another like ‘We are ONE’, ‘We are Mirrors of one another’, and ‘Nothing you could ever do or say will I take personally’. We find joy when we experience challenges in our relationship. From a simple disagreement to an all out physical confrontation, we know that there is beauty in the moment. Who in the world finds such BLISS in relating to others? Well, we do! Through our relationship, we have discovered ourselves! We developed a Technique to aide other couples called The Lacing Technique. It’s fun and easy! Read on!

Sneak Peek - Change Your Man

Introduction to Change Your Man - Book Released September 2008

By : Kenya K Stevens - Enya K - Hakashamut - JujuMama - www.jujumama.com

OK. I have a confession to make. For many years I behaved very badly in my marriage. I was controlling, spoiled, immature, needy, and even violent. Not only did I behave badly, but I was actually - deep inside - afraid to let go of my disruptive, disagreeable behaviors. I felt as though I had access to power only through the forceful behaviors that felt natural for me. I did not want to accept my role as nurturer, mother, and wife. The traditional, domestic female archetypes seemed weak and powerless. I did not want to be vulnerable or sweet to my husband. I was afraid he’d take advantage of that. I preferred the strong, willful, and direct approach. Seizing each opportunity to proclaim sovereignty and control; I unwittingly became the “man” of the house.

Being Vulnerable is EN VOUGE

article by Kenya Stevens

Vulnerable Defined

1 : capable of being physically or emotionally wounded

2 : open to attack or damage : assailable <vulnerable to criticism

3 : liable to increased penalties but entitled to increased bonuses after winning a game in contract bridge

So Ladies…does this definition of vulnerable make you want to open up to a man and let your guard down? Oh yes! Let’s just get serious - the concept of being vulnerable just doesn’t have a positive connotation in Western culture? Now does it?

What is a Blog?

Entry for January 31, 2007
What in the world is a blog - I mean where did the word come from? I asked my friend today about this blogging business and he told me that it is like a journal of sorts that you write in to just share thoughts with whoever is listening. I like this idea of speaking and writing on a website in journal form. I have so many journals from my life, maybe it’s time to begin sharing some of the amazing things that have happened to me in my life.A blog is a great place to share.

I will want to introduce myself of course. I feel it proper and due. My name is Kenya Stone-Stevens, but most know me as Hakashamut. That is pronounced Haa-Khaa-Shaa-Moot. I received this name from a dear friend of mine 12 years ago. It means - she who comes to know unity.

A Real Life Lesson

So this is me in 1999 totally happy on a beach with my son who was unaware that his mommy’s hair had all fallen out…after the medicine. He did not know because it was the luck of the pain. The pain of illness had come to teach and his mommy was truly learning a great thing. I learned that I am the Master and Creator of my life. I learned this by discovering trance. Since 1995 I had been studying meditation, yoga, feng shui, nutrition, herbs, and ceremonial skills from a group of amazing people in Washington DC. This group is a sacred group, a modern day community, existing in harmony and functioning to serve families like mine. They call themselves the Ausar Auset Society and they are a rare group of people completely dedicated to aspiring to God Status!

How I Met and Married Carl

Oh my goodness - February - the month of love. I want a second wedding in the Islands complete with good friends, good food and plenty of sun! I want a shiny new 2 carat “rock” on my left ring finger to symbolize our decade of bliss. I have been married to my handsome hunk of a man for 11 strong years. And today I am wanting to talk about it!

Let me just start by saying that getting married at age 21 is not a simple feat. I had been, since age 16, planning to meet my husband at age 21. Dreaming about marriage was my favorite pass time as a girl. So when college hit, the search was on!! What fun - at first - but over the years, the search became slow and painful. As I approached 20 - I felt a little hopeless as all 61 of my prior boyfriends had been flops.

It seemed that I was just in love with love - seeking a real union with men who were not worth my time. I would go into relationships thinking and exuding “marry me” and he’d be thinking “pass the blunt”. I dreaded finding out that my boyfriends were all marijuana heads, or video game freaks, or just seeing so many other women that polygamy was the only serious marital arrangement I could expect.

I Can Write What I Want to Write

I don’t care!! I have to write. I feel like a river behind a very weak dam. I will no longer be held this way!! It’s not even a loving embrace; it’s a forced grip on my reality that I will no longer stand for!!!

I stopped blogging because two people told me that my blogs revealed too much about me. Funny - a mother and her son…hell…I’ll say it - my husband and my mother-in-law - bless their hearts - in separate conversations told me that my blogs were a bit embarrassing and definitely too revealing - my husband even complained that the blog I was then writing about his falling in love with another woman one time (that was fun - No really!) disregarded “her” privacy!! LOL

You know what!! I can’t believe that I actually stopped blogging behind that nonsense!!

FULL MOON

Entry for June 30, 2007

Today is the full moon!I am feeling a bit strange.

I had in mind a gift for my husband - I wanted to buy him a massage at the Nail Place down the street. Oh - don’t cringe - it’s a really high scale nail salon, not a sweat shack. The atmosphere is so warm and inviting, no TVs, just soft music and nice decorations! The women are sweet and feminine. I love that! So would he…

I guess that I haven’t put on my clothing and gone to the corner to buy the gift certificate because he hasn’t called me back. He’s been in Virginia all week and is simply busy with work. However, this work involves a young lady who he is quite fond of. How nice…
