Shine bright

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, I’ve been thinking about what makes a person attractive, and honestly, I don’t think it’s down to how a person looks. Obviously that can help - at least initially - but if there’s not much going on inside, those good looks will quickly lose value.

So the thing that draws us to another person long term, is actually their inner world. Their personality, their values, their priorities. If these don’t match our own, or grate in some way, that relationship is going to flounder pretty quickly.

And knowing your own mind, being comfortable with yourself - that’s something that just can’t fail to attract.

So this Valentine’s, in a relationship or single, how about we focus on our own wellbeing, our own mental health - on connecting to our own right direction. Because the people who are also able to do that won’t be intimidated or threatened, they won’t need you to change or in some way be different, they’ll be ok with you as you are, because they are ok with themselves.

So how do we get comfortable in our own skin? Where do people find that inner glow?

Take a break from your daily routine.
Spend time by yourself.
Try doing something new: take a singing class, or learn to draw. You may not find a life long passion, but you will always learn something useful, even if it’s just that you will never (NEVER) jump out of a plane again.
Prioritise your own self care. Look after your diet, look after your health. Wear clothes that are good quality and made of natural fibres. (I’m biased of course, but it really does feel better.)

And by taking just a few small steps, making a few simple changes, we begin to step out stronger and more sure of ourselves; we gain confidence, we allow our inner glow to shine bright.

Happy Valentine’s Day guys x
