By Jessica Hendry-Laird, Founder of HoneyBeeSweat.com
Have you ever seen another woman walking by and felt a little wish deep in your gut like, She is radiating confidence and looks so fierce! I wish I could walk around like that too. (queue looong sigh)
Has that ever happened to you? Has it caused you to stop whatever you ’ re doing and do a double-take? If you answered yes, then you ’ ve experienced the beginning of a powerful reflection!
Read on. I promise that these words will completely change the way you see others and, more importantly, yourself.
What the Heck is Reflection Anyway?
What if I told you that the beauty and glow you see in other women actually exists inside of you too? What you see in these women is a reflection of your own true potential. That’ s right! Read it again. This will change your life.
Noticing your reflection through others is a calling to your own power. It is a light of reassurance that you have the power to harness your true potential and make some real magic happen!
The concept of reflection is simple. What you see in others, may it be good or not so good, is a reflection of yourself or where you are in your life at that very moment. It may even be where you stand in a certain situation that you are currently navigating.
Reflection is also known as “ mirroring ” . The universe mirrors exactly you at any given moment in time. If you take notice, it can help you to see where you are, where you want to go, and all the potential that lies within you.
The universe mirrors exactly you at any given moment in time.
Reflect and Recognize Your Inner Power
Reflection is a mindfulness tool that can help you see yourself in a different light. It has the power to elevate you with a gentle reminder that all you need is already within you.
You just have to listen to your gut feelings, know, embody, and harness your true potential. Step into your light!
Reflection prompts you to recognize the powerhouse of a feminine soul that dwells within you. It asks you to acknowledge her, appreciate her, and let her shine! Once you start using the power of reflection, you experience the revelation that you, in fact, can do anything with her leading the way.
Don't Dismiss an Opportunity to Reflect
Opportunities for these reflection revelations can happen in the midst of ever-flowing " thoughts and throughout your busy day. They are like little cues from the universe saying,
Hey! I see you there, you are amazing, and you are doing great!
When that woman walking by catches your eye, don ’t just dismiss it. This is an opportunity! Reflection asks you to pause and elaborate on the thought. Ask yourself:
What am I seeing in her that is being called out in me?
If something comes to mind, great! If not, don ’t force it. It will eventually come to you.
With practice, you will begin to notice these opportunities more frequently. Then all of a sudden, you will begin to recognize your potential, harness it, and step into your power. You will radiate that same beauty and confidence that you saw in someone else.
Start Reflecting Now!
A great way to practice reflection right now is to look at someone around you. What do you love about them? What are their strengths? Know that these are yours too.
Think of someone that you look up to. Why do you admire them? What attracts you to them? Know that you possess these qualities too. These are the qualities of your true potential waiting to be tapped into.
Allow this to be a practice. Be mindful of what comes up, without judgment. Truly just acknowledge it.
Allow yourself to get used to the fact that everything you need is already within you and that you are in the learning stages of tapping into this resource.
Follow your intuition and trust your gut instinct. Soon enough, you will be basking in the glow of your own realized potential and radiating confidence as you walk down the street.
You may even notice another woman doing a double-take as you walk by because you will be reflecting her true potential right back to her.
