Self Image

How we see ourselves is communicated to others.
How we see ourselves is how others learn to see us.
How we see ourselves is what we remind ourselves to be.
How we see ourselves sets the tone for how we are treated by our world.

The image we hold in our minds is communicated through our thoughts, our words and our actions.
The image we have for ourselves is relayed through our body, posture, tone of voice, and eye contact.
The image we hold of ourselves is broadcast through our dress, hairstyle, and way we communicate.
When we see ourselves as magnificent, whole and abundant we let the world know.
When we see ourselves a limited, lacking and needy, our world gets the message.

When we respect ourselves, we teach others to respect us.
When we love ourselves, we teach others to love us.
When we appreciate ourselves, we teach others how to be appreciative.
When we like who we are and how we look, we teach others to like us.

The more I love, trust and respect myself, the more others love, trust and respect me.
The more I love, trust and respect myself, the more I love, trust and respect others.
The more I love, trust and respect myself, the more others love, trust and respect myself.
The more I love, trust and respect myself, the more others love, trust and respect others.

How do you see yourself
Physically?
Mentally?
Spiritually?
Financially?
In relationships?

Do you see yourself as successful or a failure, a creator or a victim, abundant or lacking?
How do you want others to see you?
What message are you sending to others?
Where are you in conflict, in self deception or giving mixed messages?
What do you need to forgive, heal or undo in your own self image?
When you forgive your past experiences, what is the Truth about you?
When you remember you are as God created you, whole and happy and free, how will others see y ou?

Loving you,
