It’s so important to have self-confidence and feel empowered. This allows you to live life to the full and stand ready, with open arms, to receive everything life has to offer. But sometimes you could do with a bit of extra support, and sometimes there are things that simply make you feel insecure. A rejection, a nerve-wracking event, and so on. We have some lovely products in our range to support you during those moments. You’ll also find some great tips on how to boost your self-confidence and strength in this blog.
Building self-confidence and self-esteem
Some people are born with self-confidence, but many others aren’t… The older you get, the harder it can sometimes be to build that self-confidence. Especially if you didn’t always receive the same level of confidence from your family. This may have stemmed from events in your childhood, such as being bullied a lot, or perhaps being brought up by two insecure parents. It all seeps in, and now you’re left with the feeling that you’re not good enough… Let me tell you one thing: YOU ARE ENOUGH AND YOU ARE WORTH IT!! But of course, someone can keep telling you that… You actually have to feel it too!
There are various tips to help you work on building your self-confidence. And the sooner you start, the better! So if you have children who lack confidence, do these exercises together so that you can all become stronger and more self-assured.
Tips for boosting your self-confidence and inner strength
⇢ Don’t be too hard on yourself. Everyone makes mistakes, and it’s precisely from making mistakes that you learn what you can do differently next time. Show yourself some compassion so that you can accept your ‘mistakes’ with an open heart and continue to be honest with yourself about the fact that you, too, are only human.
⇢ Be mindful of your thoughts. This is perhaps the hardest tip to put into practice. If you’re mindful of your thoughts, you’ll probably realise that they’re often negative thoughts about yourself. And your thoughts have a huge impact on your behaviour! If you’re always thinking negatively about yourself, you won’t achieve the self-confidence you’d like to have. Get up every morning and tell yourself in the mirror that you’re worth it, that you’re good enough, and that you are light and love. Really look at yourself and be kind to yourself. Alternatively, write these words on your mirror with an eyeliner pencil so that you’re reminded of them every day.
⇢ Why not write down your strengths and achievements? What are you good at, and what have you achieved? These can be big things, but don’t forget the little successes either. This way, you’ll anchor positive thoughts in your mind, and you can always look back on them when you need a bit of extra confidence.
⇢ Let go of your perfectionism… Because this is often the case: people who are deeply insecure tend to be extremely perfectionist and hard on themselves. You’re only human, and not everything is perfect. Take an honest look around you and see through the ‘perfect picture’ that many people paint. Everyone has their own issues and insecurities; it’s just that not everyone shows them.
⇢ And perhaps the best tip of all: don’t compare yourself to others… Everyone is unique, and so are you! And as mentioned above, people often present a picture to the outside world that everything is perfect, but in reality things can be very different. Look at yourself, your own successes; be kind to yourself and be grateful for what you have. Otherwise, keep a gratitude journal so that every morning and evening you can jot down what you’re grateful for. You’ll really notice that you get through the day with a more positive outlook and, ultimately, feel truly grateful for the smallest things. That spontaneous cup of coffee with a friend, the smile from that friendly till operator, and so on. All those lovely moments in your day that you become more aware of simply by writing them down. And this positivity really does rub off on others!
Support for scent frequencies
As well as these tips, you can also make use of scent frequencies. It’s particularly good, for example, to use a spray when you’re telling yourself positive things. This reinforces your words, and the scent of the spray will give you that positive feeling at other times when you use it.
𝚉𝚎𝚕𝚏𝚟𝚎𝚛𝚝𝚛𝚘𝚞𝚠𝚎𝚗 & 𝚔𝚛𝚊𝚌𝚑𝚝 𝚊𝚞𝚛𝚊𝚜𝚙𝚛𝚊𝚢
These two top picks are absolute must-haves in this area. Self-confidence tackles your low self-esteem, which probably stems from your upbringing. It helps you come to terms with past hurts and come to terms with them. Strength You can use them to stand up for yourself, to get that one project done, or simply to get through a difficult period in your life. These scent frequencies have that contains essential oils that can give you strength and self-confidence on both an emotional and mental level.

𝙺𝚎𝚎𝚕 𝚌𝚑𝚊𝚔𝚛𝚊 𝚛𝚘𝚕𝚕 𝚘𝚗 & 𝚂𝚙𝚎𝚊𝚔 𝚊𝚞𝚛𝚊𝚜𝚙𝚛𝚊𝚢
It’s brilliant to have one of these two in your bag for when you’re feeling insecure and find it hard to speak your mind. The roll-on Throat chakra supports the fifth chakra and connects the heart centre with the forehead chakra. The throat chakra is seen as the mediator between feeling and thinking. This chakra harmonises the two and ensures that you can express yourself in a loving yet confident manner. The Speak helps you to talk about what’s on your mind, express your emotions and speak with strength and confidence about what’s on your mind.
𝚆𝚒𝚕𝚕 𝙿𝚘𝚠𝚎𝚛 & 𝙿𝚘𝚠𝚎𝚛 𝚆𝚘𝚖𝚊𝚗
Personally, I really love these two! Don’t be put off by the ‘Burn Out’ name of this powerhouse’s fragrance range. The Will Power is for anyone who could do with a bit of extra strength. Especially at those moments when you’re stuck and feel like giving up. Will Power gives you just that little bit of extra push to keep going and spot opportunities. And then the Power Woman.. To me, everyone is a power woman! At home with the children, at work, for your friend… We women often take charge of things and want to be there for everyone. So you’re a power woman too! And that can make things quite tricky at times if you’re feeling insecure. This fragrance gives you the confidence that what you’re doing is right! So pop the roller into your bag so you can use it at times when you could do with a bit of extra power!
Crystals for support
As well as these scent frequencies, you might also want to look for a lovely gemstone to carry with you. Stones have a very gentle energy, and there are plenty of stones out there that can help boost your self-confidence and inner strength. What I love about wearing a gemstone is that you carry it with you all day long. Or you could place it on your desk as a sort of talisman or a reminder that you’re perfect just as you are!
𝚃𝚒𝚓𝚐𝚎𝚛𝚒𝚓𝚣𝚎𝚛
Tiger iron gives you energy when you’re mentally exhausted. This stone also helps you stay grounded, which is very important when you could do with a bit of self-confidence. It also gives you perseverance and the strength to keep going when things get tough.
𝙶𝚛𝚊𝚗𝚊𝚊𝚝
This little powerhouse Grenade gives you perseverance, strength, energy, self-confidence and willpower. And on top of all that, this stone gives you a sense of happiness and a fresh outlook on life.
I hope this post inspires you to start seeing yourself as the wonderful person you are!
