6 Tips to Feel Beautiful Today!
How many times have you waited for something to change so that you could finally start feeling beautiful? If you are like most women, the answer is “all the time.”
Here is the problem: Most of us tend to live with the delusional belief that we somehow need to change in order to be beautiful. It usually sounds something like: When I lose this extra weight, then I will be attractive. If I can just get my abs a little more toned, then I can wear that bikini I love. I feel so much better after I put on my make-up in the morning. I looked much sexier before I had these wrinkles. My hair looks drab and lifeless until I get it colored. Unfortunately, we think these stories, these lies, that we have been taught are true. We believe that we somehow need to change who we are, how we look, and what we do in order to finally be sexy, attractive, and drop-dead gorgeous. This is a lie – an erroneous, ubiquitous, and often painful lie. The truth of the matter is that you are inherently, unconditionally, and absolutely beautiful and loveable right now, without changing a single thing. Fortunately, very fortunately, you can expose these lies and choose to no longer live under their spell. Ready to get started? Here are 6 simple and sure-fired ways to help you feel beautiful today:  1. Become aware of what you are thinking. Simply become aware of the stories you are telling yourself so that you are no longer reacting on auto-pilot. Through awareness alone, you can begin to transmute your reality and transform lies into truth. Actively acknowledge that there is no inherent truth in the belief that you need to change something about yourself in order to be attractive. Consider that you can start feeling beautiful immediately, in this moment, without changing a single thing. 2. Set an Intention to See Beauty Setting an intention is simple: intend to create a different reality for yourself. Here are some examples: I intend to experience my inherent beauty. Or: I intend to see my beauty and perfection at all times. Or: I intend to know I am inherently beautiful, lovable, and worthwhile. Do you ever see your reflection in the mirror and grimace at your wrinkles, vowing to purchase the latest anti-wrinkle cream? Set an intention to find your beauty in your reflection. Or when you undress, do you ever suck in your stomach, berating yourself for not yet losing those 5 extra pounds? Set an intention to appreciate the body that you have right now. Do you ever go shopping for clothes and wish you were a size (or more) smaller? Set an intention to unconditionally accept your body. Hopefully you get the idea; set an intention to see yourself through the eyes of beauty. 3. Take a “Meditation Moment” Meditation is the mental equivalent of brushing your teeth. This means that it is an essential and indispensable daily activity designed to help rest and rejuvenate your body, cleanse your psyche, awaken your spirit, and help you live a life that you love. Nourish yourself with instant meditation moments throughout the day. Are you waiting at the bus stop on your way to work? Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths, allowing yourself to connect within. Are you making dinner for the family? Take 30 seconds and focus on the sounds, smells, and sensations in your environment, letting them nourish your senses. Are you in the shower, getting ready to start your day? Turn your attention to the feeling of warm water cascading against you, gently caressing your body, and allow yourself to relax. These meditation moments can happen anywhere, anytime – 30 to 60 seconds of closing your eyes and connecting within can make all the difference in the world.  4. Your Body is Your Best Friend Your human body is your truest ally. Befriend it and it will serve you tirelessly. Treat it as you would a dear friend: Feed your body with healthy food, taking the time to give it proper nourishment. Remember to exercise, and make it enjoyable. If the gym makes you cringe, opt for yoga, Pilates, dance, or good old walking. Anything to get your body moving will do wonders. Relaxation is key. In our harried and hurried world, it is essential that you remember to relax and rejuvenate. Instead of critiquing your body for not being enough of this and for being too much of that, offer it gratitude and appreciation for it unwavering support and devotion. 5. Create Meaningful Moments Every day is filled with countless tasks and errands: going to work, talking with friends, picking up the kids, supporting your significant other, washing dishes, going to the gym, visiting the supermarket, shopping – on and one it goes. Remember that you can imbue each moment with meaning. It can be as simple as smiling at everyone you meet, reacting with compassion and love instead of anger, or making sure to tell your friends and loved ones how much you care about them. 6. Your Smoking Hot, Inside Out Remember, you were born beautiful. Believing that you are unattractive is a learned habit. You can unlearn it and discover the Joy, Peace, and Love that are your natural sate and birthright! So that is it – 6 Simple Steps. 6 simple steps to start feeling beautiful, right now, in this moment. You don’t have to go anywhere or do anything to experience the Beauty that you already are. In fact, there is nothing you can do, say, or buy that will make you any more perfect, any more beautiful, or any more desirable than you are in this very moment. Simply know this, and you will revel in your true beauty. |

 Are you ready to take your life to the next level? Are you ready to commit to transformation for real?
If you know more is possible in your life, if you are yearning to break free from limiting thoughts, beliefs, feelings, and behaviors, consider hiring a personal coach. I personally guarantee that I would not be where I am today without the help of amazing teachers, mentors, and coaches. I am going to be writing more in the coming months about the importance of investing in yourself because this has been a key ingredient in my own transformation, and in the success of my colleagues. For now, let me just say that you are worth absolutely every penny. When you invest in yourself, you are making a phenomenal investment that will serve you consistently and produce a manifold return. If you are looking to finally end your struggle with food and your body and create lasting peace with both, consider personal coaching. If you are ready to take your personal and spiritual evolution to the next level; if you find yourself in the midst of change and wanting guidance, consider personal coaching. To learn more about personal coaching with me, read client testimonials, and decide whether it might be a good fit, visit www.breakfreebeauty.com/coaching. Consider what one of my teachers and co-author of Chicken Soup for the Soul says about coaching: “You would never expect an athlete to reach the Olympic Games without a world-class coach. Nor would you expect a professional football team to enter the stadium without a whole team of coaches…today coaching has moved into the business and personal realm to include coaches who have succeeded in your area of interest – who can help you traverse this same path or even one far greater. Of all the things that successful people do to accelerate their trip down the path to success, participating in some kind of coaching program is at the top of the list.” --Jack Canfield, The Success Principles – How to Get from Where You Are to Where You Want to Be. I would be truly honored for an opportunity to accompany you along your path of total transformation! |
