A woman looking in the mirror

12.8.25 Acknowledge Your Feelings

The holidays are creeping in...

Parties are in full swing. Are you tempted by all the sweets?

Does that holiday dress you wore once last year feel snug?

Does your skin feel drier this time of year ~ showing more lines?

Recently I came across an article about a 15th century glass maker who discovered how to craft something the world had never seen before.

He called it Cristallo: an ultra-clear glass that reflected a sharper, truer reflection than any surface before.

By the 16th century it was perfected and became the first true mirror.

People could now see their own faces in vivid, startling detail. What an amazing discovery!

But then we bore the weight of seeing our true reflection.

Enter comparison, critique, pride and even self-loathing.🙄

Let this week’s JOLT remind you to go easy on yourself.

If you are alive one more day, you are blessed! Focus on what you feel, not on what you see.

(If you are new here, the JOLT is to acknowledge your feelings and then turn them on their head to attract what you truly want)

I don’t always love what I see in the mirror

I am my worst critic

I wouldn’t say these things to a good friend

I am getting older

I see more saggy skin

I see more lines than usual

Oh, and my neck…don’t get me started🫣

Ok take a deep breath or two

Who am I truly inside

What am I really seeing

They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder

I have control of what I’m “seeing”

I’m now choosing to see beauty

I know I have so many blessings

I know that to be alive is a gift

I am now going to focus on how I feel

I am now focusing on only the good

I am in control now

I feel safe

I feel seen

I feel heard

I feel happy

I feel worthy

I feel blessed

I feel abundant

I feel better already

I feel accomplished

Yes, I am OK now

I am beautiful

I am beautiful

I am beautiful

Your subconscious mind only knows what you tell it on repeat. It will continue to show you what you feed it. So feed it what you truly want “to see”.

Give yourself a gift that costs you nothing but an hour of your time, but could result in priceless clarity. My goal is to conduct 15 gifted clarity sessions in December. A gift to YOU and also a gift to ME.
