Discovering Your Inner Beauty

These days almost everyone is focused on physical beauty. Someone's intelligence, personality, or status is all perceived by their outward appearance. So where does inner beauty fit in?

We all have inner beauty; however, whether or not we're aware of it or utilize it is up to us. Inner beauty is something that's profoundly more important than physical beauty. It's something that you must nurture and cherish.

When you develop your inner beauty, your physical beauty also seems to improve miraculously!

Here are some strategies that can help you discover and develop your inner beauty:

 Make an "I Love Me" list. This is a powerful tool to help you discover your inner beauty. Write down all your good qualities that don't relate to something physical. Are you sweet? Sincere? Love animals and children? All these attributes and a host of others relate to your inner beauty.

·       Writing out your strengths gives you tangible evidence of your great inner qualities that you might not have even been aware of.

 Surround yourself with those whose inner qualities you admire. Of course, they may also have physical beauty, but you’re drawn to them because they're caring, loving, gentle, or otherwise admirable because of their inner qualities.

·       When you surround yourself with these kinds of people, your inner beauty tends to shine through also. They may even point out your inner beauty to you. People like this look beyond the outer shell and focus on what's important inside.

Practice and cultivate your inner beauty. Most of us know how to take care of our physical beauty: we get our nails and hair done, we stay in shape, we buy new clothes, and so on.

·       Remember, physical beauty follows when you discover and improve your inner beauty. Indeed you've met someone and weren't attracted to their physical beauty at first glance, but once you got to know them and saw their inner beauty, they also began to be more physically attractive.

·       What can you do to bring out your inner beauty? It's simple: Be you! Show beautiful qualities like compassion, love, and patience, and practice them daily.

You can avoid the negative talk. Gossip and negative comments about others breed more negativity within you. Instead, focus on the good in people. Rather than saying an off-color remark about someone's appearance, put a positive spin and focus on the point of their inner beauty.

·       This will also help you cultivate and develop your inner beauty. Focusing on the positive qualities of others brings out the best in you, too! You'll also find that you'll attract people because they enjoy being around you. Attracting loving and caring friends is just icing on the cake!

Your inner beauty is unique to you. Unfortunately, many of us don't know how to celebrate and honor it. Unleash your inner beauty to the world! Don't be afraid of it.

Use these tips to show everyone your inner beauty, and you'll gain unique and unshakeable self-confidence!
