You’re in the middle of a diet, but you’re restless to look thinner or you simply have a more robust body and there is nothing you can do about it. Don’t worry; there are little tips that work even in your case! Here are some of them:

• In what concerns women, things can be worked out without difficulty: make-up can be an ally and a special tool to make some changes in your favor. It is essential to get a tan! Stay in the sun or go to a beauty saloon, use a tanning lotion or whatever it takes to color your skin. If you use a tanning lotion include more under the cheeks, as the colored areas always look deeper and this will make your face look thinner than it really is. Use a lot of eye make up in order to make your eyes bigger, because the bigger your eyes look, the smaller your face seems. Also, give special concentration to your eyebrows for the same reasons as the ones mentioned above. You can even make up your legs: lay a vertical line of oil on the middle part of your legs, so that it makes your bone shine. You’ll discover that you’re legs, due to the extra shine, never looked longer!

• This trick goes well both for men and women. It has to do with the manner in which we put together our hair. The more volume we give to our hair, the better. Your face will look smaller than it really is and it will give you a certain charm, particularly if you don’t forget to play with it, from time to time.

• The clothes you’re wearing can indeed make a difference! Don’t use clothes that are too colored, they will only be a magnet for more eyes on the areas that you plan to hide. Chose black or dark blue clothes, as they will make you look up to 5 pounds thinner. In what concerns the right length for the skirt, women who intend to look a lit thinner than they really are should stick to the skirts that go up to the knees. Shorter ones show how heavy their legs are and longer one show thick ankles. Both men and women should wear clothes with vertical stripes (they go for pants, skirts, shirts, dresses etc.). Use blouses and shirts with buttons, because they create a vertical line. The same effect is created by long zippers. Loose the pockets or avoid filling them up. They will only make those areas look larger than they are. Both men and women wear jeans from time to time, so make sure you have in your wardrobe at least two pairs of jeans that are not unflattering on you.

• Pay attention to the position of your body. A correct position can make you up an inch taller than you are.

• Reduce the quantity of alcohol that you consume. It will not only improve your health, but also help you get rid of one to two pounds, in no time.

• Keep in mind these tricks and use your imagination to determine more!

By definition, an affirmation is a statement repeated time and again either verbally or mentally — or written down. The words of the affirmation statement – in themselves -when spoken, thought of, or written *without* a pictorial (visualized) or emotional connection – make a very weak affirmation. Affirmations, when worded correctly — and when emotionally charged – are able to tap into the unlimited creative power of your subconscious mind, and manifest your desires. Affirmations are not all created equal. Some are, of course, better than others. There are *power affirmations* that have been proven again and again to work – and I’ll reveal some of them in a moment.

When you examine the structure of these power affirmations, you, too, can learn how to create your own powerful affirmations for your specific purposes. Consider the following: "I am what I choose to be." "All my needs are met instantaneously." "I love and accept myself exactly as I am."

(Fill in the blank with what you desire.) "I am now perfectly healthy in body, mind and spirit." "I now create my wonderful, ideal life." What do the above power affirmations have in common?

1) They’re stated in the present tense. An affirmation is more effective when stated in the present tense. For example; "I now have a wonderful job." Avoid affirming something in the future tense, e.g. "I am going to have a wonderful job" or the results will always be waiting to happen.

2) They express a positive statement. Affirmations need to be stated in the most positive terms possible. Avoid negative statements. Affirm what you do want, rather than what you don’t want. For example: "I am no longer sick." This is a negative statement. Instead, affirm: "I am now perfectly healthy in body, mind and spirit." This statement is much more powerful as it is positive and reinforces your desired goal and doesn’t confuse your subconscious mind with the mention of the undesirable condition.

3) They’re short and specific. Short affirmations are easy to say, and have a far greater impact at the subconscious level than those which are long and wordy. Keeping them specific and to the point adds power as the idea is uncluttered by extraneous elements. The mechanics that make affirmations powerful are:

* Repetition The importance of repetition cannot be overemphasized. It imprints the affirmation into your subconscious mind.

* Emotions Get involved, be passionate, and use your emotions. Think carefully about the meaning of the words as you repeat them rather than just writing, typing or saying them.

* Persistence Practicing affirmations with persistence achieves results much sooner than practicing them periodically. Successive sessions will have a compounding effect.

* Belief You don’t necessarily have to believe your affirmation initially, in order for it to work. Belief will grow with your forthcoming successes. What you do need is the ability to *feel* what it would be like when the desire you’re affirming is fulfilled, or your need met. Every time that you have a need — and that need is met — a certain "feeling" is produced in you. You need to evoke that same feeling when you state your affirmation. In other words, you need to feel with every fiber of your being that what you desire has already happened. Without this feeling, your affirmation is powerless.

* Impress Yourself Personalize your affirmations. They must *resonate* with you — feel right for you. The stronger your connection with the affirmation, the deeper the impression it makes on your mind, and the sooner you will experience positive results. So there you have it – the simple formula for creating affirmations that work. Based on the above, you can easily create your own affirmations to manifest any desire or need you have in life.

TIP: Although the practice of affirmations is easy, some people find it challenging to repeat the affirmations continuously while maintaining the highly charged emotional state necessary in making affirmations work. DID YOU KNOW… that you can use your computer to make the affirmation process effortless – and that you can automate those challenging aspects (such as maintaining highly charged emotions), and thereby, manifest your desires more quickly?
