The Beauty Of Energy
Hey There Beauty B's!
Today I had an interesting day as things did not go right from the very start of the day. With my house a disaster right now and nothing in it's right place where everything flows as usual, I am very much so off my game. In fact yesterday my PTSD was so stirred up from looking at the clutter and chaos in my house that I actually had to leave. You see we are in the middle of having the house painted and new carpets, etc. However, my bedroom is off limits yet everything is still messed up because there are things in my bathroom making me pull things out of it since I can barely get into my bathroom, and the door handles were off to the point where I couldn't wait anymore for my door to be painted, I have to have the handle on there. Now this has thrown off the energy of the house and as soon as I leave my house my energy changes. The only space right now, my bedroom, I am okay in it as always as it's my space for me. You must be thinking I am a total shut in but I am actually very much the opposite. I am in a not so easy temporary living situation and I am just doing whatever I can to stay positive and stay calm, Positive and calm energies are something that people often shopping for cosmetics want to feel themselves surrounded by as it enhances the shopping experience. Don't get me wrong they want sassy, fun, and expressive, but you have to know how to adjust that accordingly to each client.
Something I noticed for the first time today which is weird, is that often we in the Beauty Industry may not be aware of how our energy is read or how we are being perceived by guests and our peers. You see think about this when you go into department stores, Ulta's, Blue Mercury, and Sephora you often may be really overwhelmed. First off it's like you have died and gone to Beauty Heaven, but then you look at some of the looks and the people are drop dead gorgeous, or their makeup is so on point you can't help but die. However you may also notice something else. Check the energies of the employees. You will see a vast variation, but you may notice a major shift where one employee seems to be out-casted by the others, yet they are the one being super interactive with guest shopping. You see I think we all need to be more aware of our energies these days with so many people batting depression, and having Bi Polar disorder. I want to explain a little why and where I stand on that.
You see guys ever since I came to terms to accept my Bi-Polar Disorder, and PTSD I started realizing more than ever that I am more sensitive at picking up energies. I can't lie, when on a road to being I hope finally happy after three hard years, I pull back from negative energy as that's not what life is about and that is definitely what life is not about in the Beauty Industry. I think we in the industry need to take a good look at how we treat ourselves, our peers, and our clients. First you never know what that person is going through. Like for instance a lovely lady just felt a little down today and was going through a divorce and I hate to say it but I had to at least demo the products and introduce to the brand I work for and yes it didn't end in a sale today but three things happened. First I gave the woman the energy she needed to feel a little better about herself and what she was going through, Second I introduced the woman to a new brand to fit her needs, not just to push to push, but to tie in her actual needs. Lastly, I represented the brand today in a positive light to that client and many others. I must say I am thankful for the super smart successful company that gave me my start in the beauty world. You guys taught us a few things about energy that I feel many others in the biz need to learn. I just want to leave you with this. We can't all be Disney energy all the time I now know that, however when it comes to beauty, one of the most important things is to give energy that shows you are beautiful inside and out, and are there to truly provide and experience for the guest no matter what. Remember this even just helping find something still reflects positively on you which you reflect the brand.
Gotta Go Beauty B's. I am actually about to steam myself and pull out any negative thoughts of the day.

Oh and remember this.....if your anxiety and depression medications dry your mouth out like there is not tomorrow like my sometimes do, it's okay drink lots of water and try to keep your lips hydrated as much as possible. I also steam my lips if they are ever too dry like they were today. Also try Therabreath or Biotene, it will help stimulate the saliva glands in your mouth . They make mints,spray, and mouth rinse. I have all three now.
