Louise Hay's Mirror Work - An effective way to boost self esteem and self worth.

How often do we see little ads that say do this for the next 30 days and it will change your life?

For the most part these are a waste of time and often of money, but that is not true of Louise Hay's mirror work. It is free and is genuinely simple, it can literally be done in 30 seconds a day, but it can make a huge difference in your life.

The attached 3½ minute YouTube link is of Louise herself giving a demo of this technique using a hand held mirror, but we all have bathroom and bedroom mirrors, which we tend to look at every day. And this is not just for the ladies. This works equally well for men too.

In essence mirror work entails creating a rapport with yourself that you repeat day after day. In doing so you start a process of overturning your subconscious programming that you have built up over years. Often this programming is one of self hate and loathing that is unhelpful and self-destructive.

The process itself is simple. We look at ourselves in the mirror. Ideally we make eye contact. And then with heartfelt words we say to ourselves:

"I love you unconditionally"
"I accept you unconditionally"
"I forgive you unconditionally"

To start with this may be really hard. You may be confronted with distrust and hate. Words like "you don't f*cking believe that" or "you don' deserve to be loved" may echo back immediately. Just allow that to happen. Don't fight it. Just accept it.

You may also need to guard against the other more insidious voices that will try to ridicule what you are doing and say "this is ridiculous", "I can't believe what you're doing!", "Look at yourself, look at how stupid you look". Again, don't give these any energy, just accept and observe.

Then repeat this daily. Over time the negativity will be replaced by positivity and love.

After just 30 days of practising this you will find that it has made an unexpected difference. And if you keep on doing it you may find a total transformation happening.

My level of self hate was off the scale. And I came across this technique from Dr Christiane Northrup on a docu-movie called Hungry for Change. It changed my life. Unbelievably after a period of months I would catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror and instead of the usual self loathing I would smile and feel genuine love.

If you're going to do this then I ask only one thing. That you make a personal commitment to try it for 30 days.

I hope that you found this useful. Or potentially you have already used this technique to help yourself and others. If you did then please share below.

In Love and Light
