Hey Sexy. Yes, I'm talking to you. Believe it or not, You. Are. Sexy! And you don't have to get on the scale for proof. And no, you don't have to suck in your belly or push up your boobs.
You, as you are in this very moment, are SEXY. I understand if you're not quite feelin' it today. I get it. Once upon a time, I didn't feel sexy either. Instead, I felt lethargic, bloated, unhealthy, and unhappy.
Until one day I woke up, decided Enough was enough, and reinvented my life from the ground up.
But regardless of how and when you feel sexy, sexiness has 1 common denominator: it always start from the inside out. Sexy is not a physical attribute but a state of being. It’s about feeling, it’s a moment of awareness of the magnificence within you.
I’m sure you can relate to this moment: you wake up really early on a Saturday morning to run errands. You put your hair on a bun, have not a stitch of makeup, you’re wearing a pair of jeans, sneakers and a sweatshirt, you have a cup of coffee in one hand and a list of 20 to-do items on the other. You are going about your morning when you lock eyes with someone else. You realize that this someone has been observing, almost staring. When you look at them, they feel like they’ve been “caught” looking at you and then offer you a warm, shy smile and move on. And for a split second, before your mind starts to analyze what just happens you feel a tiny bit warmer, like you really want to smile.
What you are feeling is acknowledgement. And that brings bliss, joy in the awareness that you are “seen”, that you are not judged by the way you look or how you live but rather that you have a light that is shining through strongly enough for a stranger to notice. That stranger saw the beauty within, which radiated through your eyes, your pores, instead of the rest of the “package”.
To me, the secret to finding bliss and feeling sexy is in learning to expand that micro-feeling that you experienced when the stranger gave you his/her smile into longer and longer moments throughout your day.
The stranger acknowledged you and now it is your job to see and let others see what is already within you.
Because sexy my love, is an inside job.
The choices that we make are a direct reflection of how we view ourselves. You can continue moving through live making the same old choices and watching your beautiful body drift farther and farther away from the sexy creature you want to see in the mirror.
So in order to get your sexy back, in 3 simple steps
I’m going to go straight to the point. You want to reclaim your health, wealth and happiness. So here are the top 3 things that you need to address today to reclaim it:
LISTEN
You need to listen to your body. It is talking to you. No, it is not telling you that you’re broken. Most of the challenges we have are simply messages that are bodies are sending us to help us evolve. It is an invitation to wake up, pay attention and listen carefully before we act.
So listen to how your body feels, listen to what is telling you after every meal, every challenge, every happy moment. Then find ways to support and help your body through a particular challenge and through the journey towards what it is meant to be.
FOLLOW YOUR GUT FEELING
After you have worked on listening, the next step would be to follow your intuition, your gut feeling, that 6th “common sense” that we all have but somehow have been slowly losing. The part of yourself that know eating a different diet will most likely have an effect in how you look and feel. The ones that is highly curious about learning what foods work for you and which ones don’t. The one that questions the crazy claims advertisers make about what they call “food”. It is also the one that tells you that knowledge is golden and that if you’d know how your body worked and what is best for your body, you could make much wiser decisions; the kinds that lead to absolute mind-body-spirit bliss.
PRIORITIZE YOU
We already talked about how your body, your vessel needs to be taken care of. But taking care of your body doesn’t only mean having your 5 daily servings of fruits and vegetables. It also, managing your state of mind and emotions, stress levels at work, improving your work environment as well as your home to appeal to your new conscious way of living. You are the sum of your parts, mind body, spirit, one impossible to thrive without the other. Prioritizing that holistic version of you is therefore key to reclaiming your personal revolution.
