We recently connected with Luv Blue and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Luv, we’re so appreciative of you taking the time to share your nuggets of wisdom with our community. One of the topics we think is most important for folks looking to level up their lives is building up their self-confidence and self-esteem. Can you share how you developed your confidence?
I am still developing my confidence and self esteem. The more I allow myself the opportunity to grow, to learn, to not have to be right, the better and more comfortable I feel in my skin. Over the years, I have come to realize that true self esteem and confidence couldn’t come from outside of me. I would never be able to do enough or be “perfect” in my execution of whatever the role or task, to please everyone and receive the validation I at one time, was feeling I needed. I had to firstly get clear about how I was valuing myself and really who I was. Once I began asking these questions, I began to observe myself taking action, “kind” action, from a place of fear. I would worry about peoples judgements and feelings about my no, and I would judge myself so harshly for even considering saying no, so much so, that often, my no wasn’t honored, regardless of what my body or budget called for. I was so busy wearing who I thought I should be instead of being me. For a time, I had lost site of who I truly was. Like most, I made my occupation my identity and so, if someone or something challenged that, I became defensive, unnerved, and unearthed, fighting to hold onto to what I thought was me.
True confidence for me, has been birthed from a place of knowing and acceptance of who and what I truly am. I am Divine, expressing in form, in the way that is unique to me. I have been allowing this truth to marinate in every part of my being. At times, I have fought it, then I soften again, allowing myself to fully receive this truth, drinking in the nectar of restoration the truth brings. Then I noticed, the way I interacted with my world changed as I allowed myself to change. I began giving, existing, expressing my being from love from more of a conscious way, caring less about pleasing others, surrendering self criticisms, and the judgements of others to Love. As I result, my relationships having been changing and I observe myself being able to enjoy people more, to receive their beauty, to witness them with less and less judgement and involvement in their process and story, recognizing compassion beginning to take shape within me. I began to recognize my boundaries and honor them. And all the ways I witness transformation within myself, I get to witness it outside of myself in the people around me.
I’m learning that true confidence allows you to be you, and in doing so others around you do the same and you celebrate their unique Divine expression. You no longer try, when you’re truly confident you walk in your knowing, making none above or below you or anyone else. You stop feeling the need to prove yourself and know you being is more than enough.
Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?
I love people. I love uncovering the mysteries of how things work, how we work, and I absolutely love supporting people in living happier, healthier lives. And so, in 2020, Luv Blue Healing, the sacred space, was birthed as an answer to a call to step into my healership, and to begin the process of true alchemy and transformation of my own self. As I continue to align with my truth, as I allow myself to simply be, me, I find myself compelled to share whatever gems I acquire along my way.
It is here, in this sacred space, that I offer an experience of reconnection to the self, through the use of energy medicine, herbs, florals, sound, intuitive guidance, and at times, movement medicine. Whether in a group setting, or one on one, each offering provides what is needed to align each individual present to their highest good and well being.
I also offer pet healing, space/land clearings, new and full moon healing circles, self healing tools, customized spiritual hygiene and ritual tools, and workshops. I am so excited for the Shadow Workshop I get to host in one of the most amazing healing spaces in LA, Quantum Clinic, located alongside portion of the LA river that remains untouched and untamed. This workshop focuses on the shadows we have created and through love we process how to uncreate, we illuminate that which had been hidden, so we see our truest selves. This workshop is channeled, providing messages and healing accorrding to the group’s need. The workshop takes place the second Friday of every month. And each participant receives a 20% discount for all services provided by Quantum Clinic and Luv Blue Healing, along with some other incredible integration tools.

There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?
1. Don’t take people personally – Before entering into the world of energy medicine I worked in the Beauty Industry, and had plenty of customer service jobs, and I learned very quickly that people can carry so much baggage and are wound so tight that the very next person they encounter, especially if they perceive their position to be less than their own, they tend to dump. This was so important for me to understand. It allowed me to maintain my calm when emotions were high around me which in turn allowed people to meet me where I was and I didn’t have to take their stuff home with me and pass that energy to another.
2. Laugh at the difficulties – I find myself laughing at the challenges that come my way more and more. In whatever way they present themselves. I especially laugh at myself when I catch myself getting stirred up and making up all kinds of stories about whatever. The more I laugh, the quicker I transmute and return to my center and that feels divine.
3. No matter what anyone else says, trust your inner guidance.- Our soul knows our truth. We just have to be willing to listen.
What has been your biggest area of growth or improvement in the past 12 months?
The past 12 months have been wild to say the least, but in all that appears as chaos, I am learning how to create flexible, yet solid structure. I have been able to witness the resistance I have in my body and in my experience, showing me where and what I have been afraid to let go of. I have been given this gift of what I need to soften, allow, and what is really means to let go and to own my value. I have been in such a phase of transformation for some time and all of it is allowing me to see me and love me fully.
