HERE ARE TWO, POWERFUL NEW WAYS TO LOOK AT BEAUTY AND ATTRACT MORE OF IT INTO YOUR LIFE!
1. Recognize the beauty in the most ordinary of things and situations
Life is made up of many, many small, ordinary moments. Even something extraordinary is created by many ordinary moments leading up to it. Therefore, noticing the beauty in these subtle moments that make up our life will bring a lot more beauty into our everyday experiences. All we have to do is PAY ATTENTION. The moment we set an intention to find beauty in the most ordinary of situations, we will start looking for it, and we will find it in abundance!
Example:
You’re headed to the grocery store, a rather ordinary task, but you choose to pay attention to the beauty in all of your experiences. Here is an exaggerated version of what you can do.
As you walk to your car, acknowledge the fresh air, the beautiful tree, the bird in the sky, the child riding his bicycle and enjoying his day, the sun shining on your face, and the fact that you have a car to get into.
Then, as you’re driving, enjoy your solitude, recognize all of the trees and flowers along the road, appreciate the engineering behind the car you’re driving. Notice how everyone pulls over to the side of the road as an emergency vehicle passes by so that they can help someone in need, appreciate the beauty in someone letting you merge in front of them in traffic, notice the pedestrian’s thankful smile as you let them cross the street in front of you.
As you walk into the grocery store, smile at others and notice the power behind that smile; how others smile back at you and how it creates a warm, fuzzy feeling inside of you. Appreciate the food you have access to, and the attendant who offers you his help. Notice how much more enjoyable your grocery shopping experience has become and how much less affected you are by the negative energy around you.
When you operate out of this higher state of energy consisting of positive vibes, you will start to attract situations with equally higher energies and therefore, the lower, more negative vibes will not be able to enter your energy field as easily.
2. Recognize the depth and the hidden beauty in the seemingly unbeautiful
Have you ever looked at a dying plant and considered it beautiful? Probably not. Why? Because at first impression, it lacks physical appeal. Emotionally, it reminds us of death, which triggers our fears and discomforts. So we stop. We label the plant “ugly” and move on with our lives.
