The TreatmentDid you know that how you treat yourself sends a direct message to others about how they should treat you? When you mistreat yourself, you’re essentially inviting others to get in on the action. On the flip side, the same is true when you treat yourself with love and respect. You begin to invite and attract the love and respect of others.

The mindset of royalty belongs to those who have discovered the truth about who they are and have chosen to let that truth reign supreme in their hearts. This allows you to receive the royal treatment from yourself and from others.

“I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.” –Psalm 139:14 KJV

The royal treatment comes from recognizing that you are regal and worthy of love and care. Taking care of yourself involves getting to know who you are in the current stage of your life and doing things that promote peace in your mind, body, and spirit.

As you continue through this gift guide, may you be inspired by the royal affirmations being made and enjoy all of the incredible gifts!

“Superhero Huff” is a comic book series that is about a strong young black female undercover police officer that has special powers from birth. She is a no nonsense Foxy Brown/Christy Love type that is tech savvy. She understands from growing up in the hood that she needs to be more of a giver than a taker and she moves back to the hood to do just that. She moves back to the family building located on the West Side of Chicago in K-town to restore safety, hope and increase literacy. She is a strong willed person with an

overwhelming personality that changes the atmosphere. You can expect to go on a life journey with Special

Agent Phaedra as she grows mentally, spiritually and physically. She is still discovering who she is and the power that she possesses as she strives to be the best Under Cover Agent that she can be. She is maturing in her destiny and powers. Just when she thinks things are one way she comes to know that nothing ever really is what she thinks it is but she would never know that until she gets into it. –Superherohuff.com
