First of all, “the goddess within” doesn’t mean “the book that will never be told.” The idea of finding and indulging your own wondrous self has been around for a long, long time.
For some people, this may come easily—even second nature. For others, it may be difficult to acknowledge that you are a magical and sexy creature, completely separate from other people.
We repeat… no one else.
This isn’t to say that your partner can’t make you feel sexy, or that you shouldn’t celebrate your sexy, voluptuous nature with others. However, too often our identities end up being completely tied to how others or society perceives us.
First, let’s take a look at a simple example. Then, we’ll cover some simple methods you can try to reconnect with your inner sex goddess.
Dita Von Teese
This woman is one of my favorite people. She loves to celebrate sensuality and eroticism simply for the nature of the act. She wears lingerie and sexy underwear for herself – not for others. She believes beauty is about being healthy, confident and being who you want to be.
Protect your inner goddess
Creating Space – The goddess inside you doesn’t hang out in chaos. Their world is all sparkly and beautiful… which isn’t always possible, especially if you’re busy and/or have kids. However, you can make a small part of your world a cozy place. This could be the bathtub, the patio, your bed, or a corner of the house where people don’t usually go. Dimming the lights and adding some candles can make a huge difference.
Bath in healing waters – After a hard day, a bath isn’t just for relaxation. Soaking in a tub can be calming, but it can also feel really sexy. Add essential oils or something else that makes you happy. Silver bath bombs will make you feel like you’re bathing in starlight. Milk and rose will make you feel like Cleopatra. Lavender might inspire nature spirits. Choose something that fills you with light.
Drink up delicious food – Taste wine, tea, coffee, brewed tea… whatever. You might add something you wouldn’t normally add – a piece of fruit, a sprinkle of chocolate, etc. Taste it slowly. Goddesses have their own rhythm.
Wearing sexy clothes – Sorry, this isn’t for your partner. Your silky pajamas, sexy dress, or outfit that flatters your figure is for you. Wear it and love it. Look in the mirror and say, “Damn it, girl. This mortal world doesn’t deserve you.”
Sexy dance – Do it alone, don’t be embarrassed! It could be 80’s pop, heavy metal, or a striptease song. The “sexy dance” is up to you. Just make sure it gets your blood boiling or fills your brain with appreciation for your sexy, confident self.
Reading Hotspots – If you have trouble getting into a sexy mindset, try reading romance/erotica.
Nurture your inner goddess, from the inside out.
skin care – Exfoliate and moisturize your body, something you’ve been putting off. Give yourself a mani-pedi and start doing a Korean facial with some cheap products (I tried it… your skin will be amazing afterward!). Also, drink lots of water. It’s the best way to nourish your epidermis.
Nourish your soul – Meditation, mindfulness, reading self-help or similar books. Your inner goddess is more than just your body.
Self-esteem – It’s hard to see yourself in a positive light if you lack confidence. Try to work on not caring what others think, or take other small steps to appreciate yourself. One trick is to look in the mirror every day and say something nice about yourself – compliment the things you normally don’t like about yourself. It may be painful, but the end result will be worth it.
Buy flowers – I do this sometimes. It is so nice. It feels so good when the goddess receives tributes and offerings. However, she does not have to wait for them. She can give herself a bouquet of flowers.
Bring some sense of ceremony – If it’s hard to take certain steps, it might help to create a ritual around what you want to do. Some people just enjoy rituals themselves, and that’s cool too!
Love Notes – Write yourself a love letter and post it around your home. You can even put it in your lunch box.
photo shoot – How many times have we taken sexy photos for others or to show our best side for social media? Screw that! Take a sexy boudoir photo shoot for yourself and don’t show it to anyone. These amazing photos are just for you.
There are so many options!
Inspirational quotes – Find quotes that really speak to you. It can be about health, sexiness, beauty, confidence, anything. Put them where you need them most.
Self-care and treatment – Some of this advice can be chalked up to self-care, but I wanted to mention it anyway. The world has beaten us down and made most of us feel worthless. It’s time to use your magical goddess powers to heal yourself.
Self-satisfaction – Yes… masturbate. Explore and get to know your body. Learn how it likes to be touched and how it likes to orgasm. Before you say “I already know that”, stop there. Our bodies, minds and outside influences change us over time. It never hurts to take some time to get to know your sexual nature. If you don’t feel like touching yourself, try watching porn. Maybe something will turn you on that may not have in the past.
Favorite Place – Put on any nice clothes you like, get out of the house and go to someplace you’ve always loved. Your favorite restaurant or cafe, a museum/gallery, a park or beach, etc. It’s okay for you to be alone there.
If your inner goddess doesn’t have a lot of money to spend, that’s okay. Many of these are free!
Find Your Scent -Walk into a cosmetics or department store and spritz on some new scent that makes your inner goddess purr or scream with delight. If you stick with your usual bottle, that’s fine, but find a new one. You don’t have to buy it, but you can save up for it or add it to your birthday list.
flirt – This can be a delicate issue if your partner is insecure or you just don’t think it’s appropriate, but it never hurts to give that cute barista a wink before you leave.
Naked positive affirmations – Another one that might be hard, but give it a try. Take off your clothes, stand in front of your face, and compliment all parts of your body. Bonus points if you double compliment a part you normally hate. Remember, you are beautiful all over.
Be brave – Try new things. Learn new things. Do something on your own.
Pampering Day – Combine many of them together in the bonus round for a day of super goddess pampering!
