When you look at yourself again and recognize who you are

When was the last time you looked into the mirror and felt a real connection with the woman staring back at you? And I don’t mean only the physical reflection, but your entire expanded being—your essence, your story, your truth. If you hesitate before answering this question, this message is for you. Because the first genuine connection we must recover is the one with ourselves. If you don’t feel that connection, how can you expect others to feel it with you?

You cannot love your life if you don’t love your body—the temple that has carried you through every battle, that has endured changes, scars, losses, and rebirths. Until you change the relationship you have with yourself—until you stop criticizing and begin embracing yourself fully—you will never love yourself wholly. And that work, dear one, only you can do.

A Mirror Exercise

Each morning, after giving thanks for the new day, gift yourself this moment:

Take your journal and write three sentences that speak of you with love and admiration. For example:

• What a beautiful, deep gaze I have.

• I love my smile.

• I’ve become a wonderful woman.

Then, repeat these sentences out loud before the mirror.

Do it with intention, as if you were planting seeds of light within yourself.

Because it is through these small actions that great changes begin.

Make an Inventory of Your True Riches

Write down four things that make you feel abundant—not material things, but the essential ones:

• A body filled with health.

• A family you love and who are well.

• A job that nourishes your spirit.

• Your resilience and strength to rise after every fall.

This simple exercise trains your mind to focus on what you have rather than what you lack.

It shifts your energy from scarcity to gratitude… and gratitude, let me tell you, opens the doors to true abundance.

The Woman Who Reconciles with Her Story

I am here today because I learned how to meet myself. It wasn’t a quick or easy path.

It was a process of breathing myself, listening to my silence, embracing my shadows, and kissing each scar as one would caress a sacred map. I reconciled with the woman I am—the one who has loved and lost, cried and healed, laughed and begun again. I understood that being a profoundly attractive and fulfilled woman has nothing to do with trends or appearances, but with inner freedom. When you become your own best friend—when you stop seeking external validation and start living from your wholeness—something inside you changes forever. The woman who dares to release painful memories and old guilt—that woman illuminates herself. She no longer withers nor shrinks. She doesn’t need to impose herself to be respected. Her mere presence radiates power and serenity. She looks upon her past with respect and a soft smile that says: “I am here… and I am powerful.”

Dear woman, if you are reading these words, perhaps it is time for you to look into the mirror…

and finally, recognize yourself.
