How to Be Beautiful from the Inside Out

Applying cosmetics and beauty aids to your outside is one way to achieve a type of beauty, but it is no substitute for inner beauty. Applying beauty aids only to the outside neglects the person inside, and can simply become a cover. In order to cultivate beauty that begins inside and shows outside, try some of these tips.

1. Be grateful

Gratitude is essential to a peaceful spirit. When you are grateful, worry and fear tend to evaporate. This kind of inner peace radiates out from you and is very attractive.

2. Be kind

Kindness is infectious. People find kindness very attractive and pleasing. Go out of your way to say kind words and do kind deeds.

3. Meditate

Meditation helps center your mind and relax your muscles. It cultivates a sense of peace and wellbeing, which shows outwardly in a peaceful facial expression and calm body movements.

4. Exercise

This is not advice about sculpting the perfect body. Exercise is about your health, and good health is beautiful. Exercise for the health of your heart, lungs, bones and muscles.

5. Stretch

Stretching exercises such as Yoga or Pilates help relax muscles. When your muscles are relaxed, this includes your facial muscles – your face will not have the worry lines that make it look tense.

6. Don’t worry, be happy

Strive for an optimistic spirit. Optimism is infectious and inspiring, and people are naturally attracted to someone who has a positive outlook on life.

7. Diet

Eat a healthy, whole foods-based diet. Again, this is not about being super-skinny; it’s about your health. Good, healthy food gives your skin and hair a healthy glow. A good diet gives you more energy, too. All of these things are attractive.

8. Drink your water

Water helps plump the skin and hydrate the body. It helps your body flush toxins and impurities. Make sure to drink plenty of this essential liquid and it will show.

9. Stop and smell the roses

Take some time just to be still. You don’t always have to be doing something. There is a great beauty in someone who knows how to enjoy the little things in life and who is not in a big hurry all the time.
