Manifesting is not just a buzzword. It’s a powerful tool in your arsenal to help regain control of not only your mind, but also every aspect of your life. Manifestation is the belief that actively thinking about the things we want will help them come true. Like the vehicle that drives confident decision making and unwavering determination. It takes action and drive to move into the direction of your goals.

But unlike many tools that sound a little too good to be true. There are some incredible positives to manifesting. Experts believe that manifesting keeps your goals at the forefront of your mind, helping guide you to making decisions that will affect your goals positively. 

By now, you’re probably asking what manifesting has to do with self empowerment AND boudoir. Girl, that’s an easy one. Why don’t you scooch over a little closer and let us give you the secret? You’ll be glad you did. 

How do I trust during the manifesting process?

Trust is a difficult thing to give up. Sometimes, we have learned that we can’t trust ourselves. Maybe our minds are too busy telling us we’re not good enough, and though evidence shows otherwise, we believe that negative voice. So if manifesting things is a trust given to the universe to follow through with your need, how do you make it work?

To start, you need to believe in yourself. Believe that by asking the universe to help you provide, that it is already yours. It’s an excellent exercise to picture yourself as the person you already want to be. 

For instance, say you’re a professional artist. You dream of selling the piece of artwork that will change your family’s circumstances. Something that catapults your career into the mainstream. It’s scary, right? That much exposure on one hand is amazing for your wallet. But on the other hand, it opens you up to criticism beyond your wildest fears. If you have been manifesting the level of success but did not picture yourself as someone capable of handling criticism that can come with it, then it will affect your mental health. 

Trusting while manifesting, then, is just as important as learning to trust others. It can affect your mental health, but it can also affect you in very great ways as well. Believing in the shifts you are manifesting is key to moving closer to those goals.

Accepting Yourself is Powerful in Manifesting Goals

Self-empowerment is that sticky and elusive idea that we are important and can take up space from exactly where we are. There are many people who were told they should be seen and not heard growing up. Those behavior traits that were ingrained in us as a child more than likely stopped being helpful past the age of, say, sixteen. 

Today, self-empowerment is gaining traction. We’re leaning into being more unapologetic versions of ourselves, and that includes finding pride in our own bodies and sexualities. Self-empowerment is giving us the courage to stand up to our employers when something is being overlooked, but it’s also giving us the courage to speak our peace to the bullies who try to make us smaller to make them seem bigger. 

What is a self-empowerment boudoir shoot?

If your goal during self-empowerment is to become more comfortable in your own body, more willing to take up the space you deserve, boudoir photoshoots are a great way to boost your self-confidence. Not only are you pampered before your session, but your professional photographer is your one on one hype-woman (man or person). They’re going to show you what it’s like to be accepted in the space you’re in.

A self-empowerment boudoir shoot is about teaching you how to move your body and how you best carry yourself. Your photographer should be able to help you hold your head and posture with confidence. And with us at the Girlfriend Experience, we always want you to not only look but feel like your most badass self. To see yourself as beautiful and powerful, just the way others should see you.

So, how do you manifest your self-empowerment boudoir shoot? Do your research, learn who you feel comfortable shooting with and what the cost expectations are. Then, ask the universe to help you get it scheduled and believe it will happen. You will thank yourself for it.

You are your own best investment. This is your story. Write it how you want it. And if you’re ready to take the plunge to treat yourself to a luxury beauty and boudoir session for your most sensual self, we’d love to meet you. Ready to get started? Let’s explore the best investment you can make this year – yourself!
