Quick Tip on Developing a Magnetic Presence

We all tend to project personal qualities we want others to think we have. For example, “I want to be seen as sweet and lovely” or “I want to be seen as smart and capable.” We may actually have some of these qualities, but when we project our energy outwards and do not “stay home” in our bodies, we have less presence. People notice when we try too hard. When you stop projecting and are just “home in your skin,” people will want to connect with you. They will unconsciously feel there is room to come towards you, versus being uncomfortable or slightly repelled by your energy. For most women reading this tip today, the difference between “being home” and projecting a forced sense of confidence or presence is very subtle. Be aware of that subtlety this week.

Practice walking from point A to point B projecting the quality that you most often project. After a minute, switch to walking with your attention on your lower belly, imagining that you are slightly leaning back into your body and not projecting anything. Feel the difference.

Let me know if this tip was helpful and if you have any questions.
