is
    important to accept ourselves for who we are; feel good about ourselves and carry an inner strength so we
    can live a healthy, empowered and productive life. Say to yourself, ‘When I embrace myself and treasure
    who I am then love and respect flows into my life’.
    Knowing what you think about yourself is the first step towards challenging negative beliefs and
    thoughts. Replace negative beliefs with positive affirmations or power thoughts, which you can find in the
    second part of this book.

    Getting Personal:
    – How would you describe yourself physically to other people?
    – How do you feel about your appearance?
    – What do you like about the way you look?
    – What is in your power to change easily?
    Did you say more negative things about yourself or more positive things? Replace each negative
    thought with a positive one. Even if it feels a bit strange every time you think something negative, stop
    yourself, and replace the negative with a positive statement.
    One of my favourite poems for beauty advice is by Sam Levenson. It was one of Audrey Hepburn’s
    favourites:

    Time Tested Beauty Tips

    For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
    For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
    For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
    For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.
    For poise, walk with the knowledge you’ll never walk alone.
    People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed: never
    throw out anyone.
    Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you’ll find one at the end of your arm.
    As you grow older you will discover that you have two hands; one for helping yourself, the other for
    helping others.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she
    combs her hair.
    The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the
    place where love resides.
    The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole, but true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul.
    It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she knows.
    And the beauty of a woman, with passing years only grows!

    you are what you eat… and more!

    Goodness comes from within – physical, mental and spiritual. I feel you can’t shine on the outside unless
    you are healthy on the inside. It’s hard for your eyes to sparkle, your hair to shine, or your skin to glow if
    you are not truly healthy in mind, body and spirit. It’s not just about food; it’s about everything you put in
    and take out. It’s giving and receiving equally.
    As a model I have an extremely demanding schedule. I can be in up to six countries in the space of a
    ten-day period. The jetlag alone takes an enormous toll on my body. I know if I don’t look after myself
    physically, emotionally and spiritually then I won’t be able to succeed in my career.
    My healthy life… In the beginning, when I didn’t have the nutritional knowledge I have now, I deprived
    myself of my favourite treats: chocolate, fried chicken, and ice cream. This just made me want them even
    more. Eventually I’d give in and eat twice as much then feel bad about myself. Deciding that a certain
    food is ‘forbidden’ will make you crave it more! My weakness is fried chicken. Although I know it’s not
    good for me, and not just because of the calories, every now and again I’ll treat myself. Moderation and
    knowing what’s good for you is the key to staying healthy and looking your best, without feeling like you
    are deprived.
    I’ve learned if I treasure myself and appreciate my body I naturally want to fill it with all the right fuel
    so it can perform at its optimum. Educating myself about nutrition has made a huge difference as I can
    apply my knowledge daily. I eat the right food for my body, drink lots of water and detox regularly. Now I
    rarely crave food that is not good for me, and when I do I allow
