How To Be More Beautiful

I won't lie to you.  I have looked dead at my own face in the mirror and thought, let's just say not so affirming thoughts.  I have also looked at my reflection and thought: "my God you are stunning".  I know that on the days that I think myself beautiful it has so little to do with my exterior.  It has of course everything to do with what I am feeling inside.  I believe the most delightful part about seeing that beauty is that it seems to catch us off guard.  Yet what really happens is that we are aligned with spirit and we are good with ourself.  It is in that moment when we radiate beautifully because it comes from inside.

So how can you be more beautiful?  Here's what comes up for me:

Live Beautiful: 
Surround yourself in beauty, a home that you love dearly.  From the smallest thing to the most simple of things you buy for your home, make them mean something good.

Think Beautiful: 
Decide to think beautiful thoughts about yourself, others around you and your life.  Think a lot about how wonderful your life is and how much you have to appreciate and love.  When thoughts come to you that are not aligned with beauty,  click your heels and say "I am in a beautiful place, I am in a beautiful life, I am in a beautiful body.

Dress-Be Beautiful: 
Being beautiful means taking very good care of yourself and adorning your body with clothes that express who you are inside.  It means that the bracelet you are going to put on is one that has some kind of meaning or elicits beautiful feelings.  When we look good we often times feel good.

Self-care Beautifully: 
Do things that are kind for your self.  Take the time to get a massage or pedicure.  Take a warm bath with bubbles and scented oils.  Do things each day that send that beautiful message to your brain that you matter.

Act Beautifully: 
Treat others with beauty.  Be beautiful to others.  This will enhance your beauty where others will see just how magical you are.  You may have been raised to think that you are the cat's meow but don't just take it for granted that you must be beautiful inside and in your actions.

It may seem very trite and simple to everyone yet these are some essential factors of beauty.  It is not measured by how attractive you are to others physically but rather how attractive you are inside and the way that it comes forth.  We all know people who are very good looking who suddenly don't look beautiful when they mistreat others.  Beauty is a combination of what we think of ourselves, how we treat ourselves and others and the time we take to tend to this our temple.

A Seasoned Vs Old Person

Those of you who know me personally might be aware that I don't use the word "old".  I don't think that people should be referred to with a word like old and I believe that as we live longer lives we are wiser and that we can be looked upon as "seasoned".  For me the word seasoned means that we have lived a good life and that we have gone from one season to another experiencing life and the many ups and downs of it.  I don't see the word old as one that honors any human being for their acquisition of wisdom and the things they have been able to overcome.  I for one consider myself a seasoned man not an "old man". There are so many meanings to the word old but the one that I am not in agreement with is the connotation that older is less than and younger is more important.  Unfortunately we live in a world where youth is celebrated and seasoned people are looked down on.  The thought is that younger people are more attractive or that they are m...

Your Skirt Is Over Your Head

I am uncertain as to how many of my readers know what I mean about putting your skirt over your head.  All I know is that my sister once said it and I think I heard it in a movie once.  I do know that in the movie "Mermaids" Cher who played the mom had some great lines about being a woman and just having a good time with life.  In one of those what should be famous lines Cher's daughter played by Winnona Ryder says: "Don't you think yoiiu are too old for that dress?"to which Cher responds with: "Don't be silly Charlotte, a woman is never too old".  In another part there is a stunning young man waiting on their porch to welcome them to the country area where they moved and upon setting eyes on him Winnona Ryder who is Charlotte is mezmerized by him.  Cher suddenly turns around and says: "too bad your hell bent on becoming a nun".  To say that Cher truly pulls the dress over her head is really minimizing her role in this movie that I wo...

Visualize It, Manifest It.

Let me just excuse myself from the non-believers as I know you are out there and the mere idea of believing and then achieving seems silly.  If you are one of these people, you should stop reading now and simply not waste any time because if you don't believe in yourself then you will not understand how manifestation works.  This blog is not just about believing and then getting what you believe in but more importantly how to go from the thought of being your highest self to actually being your highest self. And so if you believe, even a little, keep going because this is about having what you want in life ether spiritually, emotionally or physically.  Here are some ways to get there: Setting Your Intention: The very first thing to do when you want to manifest something (joy, money, relationship) is to set your intention.  You can set your intention by speaking of what you want in a way that feels intentional. An intention can sound like this: My intention is ...
