Dreams are renewable. No matter what our age or condition, there are still untapped possibilities within us and new beauty waiting to be born.
Dr. Dale Turner
There is no greater beauty treatment than what an inner confidence can give to a woman. I am always amazed at how many women have no faith or confidence in their appearance. We are a composite of an amazing array of gorgeous assets. Recognising your assets and releasing the beauty in them is the part of my job which gives me enormous satisfaction. Before you look in the mirror, to discover your own true assets I should remind you that even some assets should remain a hidden asset and no judge will penalise you for it.
Every one has something gorgeous about them that even they are proud of. Yours may be your beautiful smile, long eyelashes, thick hair, fine wrists, legs, bust or belly. Everyone has something different. Do you think I hear men or women coming up to men and proudly proclaiming this fact NO! I hear things like, I hate my bum, thighs, belly, boobs etc etc. As soon as I hear these words I cannot help but look at those offending body parts to see what all the fuss is about. Many times it is not warranted and all the person is doing is drawing attention to what they do not like and they do so in a very negative light.
By the end of this article I want to you to see your beauty and to be proud and confident of whom you are. If you follow these three steps you will be smiling and everyone around you will be wondering what you have been up to.
Step 1 - Turn off your negative channel. Shut it down. Yes it is a bit like an old radio station we know it is there but you don't need to tune in to it. Now that the negatives are no longer streaming through your internal dialogue it is time to listen to and start dialogue with the positive station. To do this I want you to get together with your girlfriends and discuss what each of them like about you. Of course it is only proper that you share with them what you like about them to. now don't start telling each other they make good, cakes, pastries and cheese platters. This is about how you look. Let's get really superficial and discuss each others bodies. You'll be amazed at what they see in you.
Step 2 -Stand in front of the mirror and look for yourself. I would recommend you leave your clothes on. I know many self help people will tell you to take your clothes off and be proud of who you are but, well, life has worked on us since our 20's and some things I don't need to be reminded off. I am happy living with the memory of my flat stomach. I have plenty other assets that I am proud of right now.
Step 3 - See for yourself just how wonderful the assets truly are that your girlfriends illuminated for you and what you can see for yourself. You are really a gorgeous person, which we all knew anyway, but sometimes we need to remind ourselves. Why should you wait for others to give you praise when you can praise your own beauty and be more confident as a result. Focus on your positives and you will find everyone else will as well. Really who cares about cellulite if you have eyes that dance, a smile that warms a room or hands with the grace and beauty that a sculptor would love to recreate.
Cheers
