Is it possible that a body scrub, facial or applying your favorite eye shadow can help you to get in the best shape of your life? Absolutely! There are many ways that beauty rituals can help you achieve your dream body. Here’s why applying mascara or doing a weekly facial scrub can help you get into a little black dress.
While working with women on their journeys to transform their body to its former glory or even to an image in their head that they have never attained before, I have observed a few common traits of women who repeatedly fall short of their goals that their more successful counterparts don’t share. The habits and factors have nothing to do with how much weight they lift or even how often they attend the gym but have everything to do with their ability to follow through with their program to their ultimate goal.
Here are the most common factors that keep women from achieving their dream body even when given access to a proper nutrition and fitness program and the support of a coach: mindless night time snacking, unchecked stress levels, living in a constant state of hurry, an inability to see themselves as the hot, fit person they are becoming, disconnection with their body as evidenced by not being able to recall what and when they ate, exercised or slept, not believing they are worth the time it takes to create the body they desire.
Beauty rituals such as bathing, skin care, applying makeup, shaving, waxing, styling hair or manicures and pedicures can help with slowing down a rushed mind and becoming connected with what you are doing (or not doing) to your body. When a woman looks good, she feels good, and consequently will have the level of awareness and confidence necessary to consistently follow through with the proper fitness and nutrition steps needed to achieve her goal. A few minutes spent in the morning applying moisturizer and makeup can set the tone for better self care for the rest of the day. Night time beauty rituals such as bathing, hair washing, or skin routines can help with unwinding from a stressful day without snacking on unsupportive food. So ladies, while you are lifting weights to shape the body you want, don’t forget to lift a brush, a mascara wand, and whatever else helps you look and feel your best. You are worth it!
