Being in control of your life is more than simply feeling in control. After all, while you may believe you are consciously making controlled decisions, your actions may actually be sabotaging your life.

To harness your personal power is to become more assertive, to act in your own best interests while maintaining a global awareness of the world in which you live. By harnessing your personal power, you will become healthily responsible for your own emotions, thoughts and actions, and stop giving yourself away without your conscious consent.

Harnessing your personal power is a simple and true commitment to yourself and the life you want to enjoy. The process entails taking the following steps toward the changes you want to see in your life:

Know yourself: what brings you joy, comfort, drive, love?
Dare to be you.
Ask for what you want and what makes you feel good.
Treat yourself in accordance to your needs and wants.
On your path to unleash your inner power, you may have difficulty adjusting to a new paradigm. But you must hold true to your commitment if you are ever going to feel complete and achieve your full potential. With your newfound personal power you will truly be able to enjoy genuine and healthy relationships with others, feel content with life's goods and gifts, and view life as an opportunity and gift.

Begin harnessing your personal power to gain control in your life now by incorporating the following routine into your daily life:

• Maintain a journal expressing your needs and wants;
• Prepare the aromatic blend below. Pour a few drops into the palm of your hands and inhale deeply several times throughout the day;
• Anoint your solar plexus and sacrum with the aromatic blend while saying the following affirmation three times aloud: "As I harness my power, I recognize the strength and beauty
  of who I am."
