Having done Literature at uni I know the
value of a good book. However, sometimes there is more you need than good
writing – good advice and affirmations….
I often visit the Kora Organics Blog as it
is full of useful information about nutrition, well-being and environmental
protection. It offers delicious healthy recipes and more topics, which inspire
me to be more conscious of myself and my health. From there I came across
Miranda Kerr’s book about cherishing yourself and letting your true personality
shine. A lingerie supermodel/ book writer does not really bring to mind a real
life coach. However, there are these exeptions and I she is one of them. The
book is based on her life experience, a compilation of positive affirmations
and tips on how to stay grounded and true to yourself. My initial skepticism was erased by her
natural way of narrating her early modeling days full of rejection, which would
then lead to insecurity and lack of faith in herself. Advice on how to be
grateful, appreciative and present serve as assurance to all the insecure girls
out there (to whom the book is mainly addressed) that everyone once and again
faces their inner fears and worries…the hardest part is admitting them. Someone
once said to me – we cry not because we are weak.
We cry because we have been strong for too
long. Being harsh towards ourselves only suppreses our emotions and dims the
light, which is only waiting to shine bright from within us (Shine Like a
Diamond…)With a more positive and self-loving approach nothing is as bad or
scary. Love and faith could change the world, your world. It all starts from
the inside!
