A Simple Mantra To Help One Feel They Are Attractive

I believe it’s an unconditionally loving action for each of us to be able to look in the mirror and say we are an attractive person, especially because I think in God’s eyes we all are. Unfortunately, many of us frequently struggle believing that due to our own reasons, like I do because of my body dysmorphia and hypochondria.

Body dysmorphia is a mental condition in which a person becomes overly preoccupied with an imagined physical defect or a real defect that others generally cannot see. Thus, in my case, small blemishes such as pimples, scars, sun spots, etc. appear to be huge, my weight appears to be either overly skinny or overly heavy, or my bodily features (like my nose) appear grossly out of proportion to the rest of me.

Hypochondria is another mental condition in which a person deals with heightened fears about having a grave medical illness over sensations they have within or things they see on the outside of themselves. Thus, any internal aches and pains tend to cause me to think I have some type of disease growing within me. And whenever I see new things pop up on my skin, especially red in nature, I think I have some type of skin condition that’s going to spread all over me.

With both of these mental conditions being active within me at the present time, it makes it extremely difficult to see myself as attractive on any level. Instead, I tend to see a worn-down and tired-looking person who’s covered with signs of being far older than my actual age anytime I look at myself.

While I’ve been working on removing these mental conditions through holistic means, prayer, meditation, and therapy, it was suggested I add another mantra (affirmation) to the many I already utilize on a daily basis.

In this case though, instead of saying it along with the other mantras I repeat in a single sitting each day, I’ve decided I’m going to verbalize this one every time I find myself looking at myself in any way with disdain about my appearance or how I feel inside.

As with all mantras, the use of them will help to manifest a desired change, like I know it will with this simple one I’m sharing with all of you here. But please remember, this isn’t an overnight process, it takes time and daily repetition…

I am attractive, no matter how I look on the outside or feel on the inside.

Peace, love, light, and joy,
