Why do people in love look so amazing?

 

Why do people in love look so amazing?   Have you ever noticed how amazing someone looks when they just fell in love? Or bought a brand-new car? (Another kind of love) Or got a big promotion at work? (Accolades feel so good!) Why is it that physically, they look so much better? I mean, even their skin glows! Love.  Another form of love is compassion. And this is why all of those lucky people look better: Compassion + Mindfulness = Hope Hope is the best beauty product there is, as is love.  Being fully present with the fact that we are unconditionally loved fills us with hope and optimism for the future. Love is the best beauty treatment. So- let me give you a little self-care tip this week.  Remember how much you are and have been loved in your life.   Comb back through your memories and write down the times when you were praised, admired, supported, or hugged. If you have a hard time, keep the list going for the week. Ask our Creator to help you remember. All of us will have a list by week's end. Look at it and smile.   You are loved unconditionally by many.*  You are beautiful. All my love, Beth *Is there a part of you saying, “No, I’m not.” Or “But what about…” or “But she had ___, and I didn’t.”? That’s okay. This is the perfect place to install a new thought for that part of you that didn’t get what she needed. Thank her for speaking up, wrap your arms around yourself in a big self-hug and remind her with the phrase, “I am welcomed, wanted, and deeply loved.” For an even bigger love burst, smell some lavender while you do that. The scent of lavender infused in the air has been proven to increase oxytocin, the love hormone, in women.   Lavender + self-hug + “I am welcomed, wanted, and deeply loved.” You have that loving glow about you!   Who am I writing for? I write for every overwhelmed, discouraged, faith-challenged woman out there. I know your goodness and your capacity. Why should you care? Because you were made for so much more! Stop playing small and embrace your true potential. What do I want you to do here? I would love it if you kept reading, responding, and growing. If you struggle, click here to get help.
