I changed my whole life because I trust myself, you can too!

I quit an awesome job, moved out of the perfect house, and ended a relationship with someone I care deeply about. 

Why?

Because I followed my intuition

A while ago I made a commitment to listen to and follow my intuition, I believe this commitment is the biggest we can ever make, it’s like marrying ourselves! We’re going to be with ourselves this whole lifetime so we may as well fully accept and enjoy our own wisdom

Not so long ago I was feeling a bit stuck, I wasn't entirely happy or at peace even though on the surface it looked like the perfect life, great job, great house, great friends, great social life, but even with all this greatness going on I still felt off, something wasn’t right and only I had the answers to this uneasy feeling stirring inside me.

It's important to remember that your relationship with yourself is the most important one you will ever have and must be honoured above all

When you connect to your intuition, something magical happens, you get the answers you're seeking to move from feeling uneasy and stuck to feel like your moving forward in life
 
I believe there are a few main reasons why a lot of people don't follow their intuition

1. They don't know how to connect
2. If they do connect, they don't trust what they get is real and doubt themselves
3. They connect and get the answers but it's not the answer they want so they ignore their own guidance because it’s easier in the short term
4. Following your intuition often means delaying gratification and everyone is trying to feel happy and pleasurable all the time hence the resistance to acting on our guidance

Sometimes the changes you need to make aren’t what you think you want and that feels crap for a while

If you don’t change anything you will keep feeling the way you've been feeling.

The changes you are guided to make may be hard, it may feel uncomfortable, challenging, you may lose sleep, you may lose relationships, you may hurt people’s feelings, it may bring up all your insecurities and old grief but your soul will never guide you to change anything you're not ready for or anything that isn’t for your highest good.

How to connect?

The more you distract yourself with the external world, the more you prolong the agony of not following your spirit

I have found the easiest way to connect and begin trusting yourself is by getting a yes/no sensation in your body, this helps you get used to your body wisdom and gets you to a point where you can meditate on questions and get a yes or no response for whats in your best interest.

Here’s how to get started on this journey

1. Listen to the body wisdom meditation, it may takes many listens to get an obvious yes and no response in your body. Sometimes you will get a strong yes sensation and a weaker sensation for no or vice versa. Trust it!

Yes/No meditation

2. Once you have the felt sense of yes and no, you can connect in and ask yourself questions you want guidance on that will give a yes/no response

Start using yes/no simply, ask questions in your daily life such as “is this breakfast cereal going to nourish me”, “Should I have a coffee”, “Is it in my best interest to walk to work today” etc

Play with it! Your body will be so pleased once you go inward and start trusting, your life will better forever!

Ultimately you can ask yourself any question, it’s your spirit you're connecting to, so asking if a choice you are considering is for your highest good is perfect wording.

“Is (insert choice/question) in my best interest?”
“Is (insert choice/question) for my highest good?”

3. Don’t get discouraged if you go against your guidance, you're only human and sometimes you wont get the response you want e.g. “Is eating this gelato in my best interest?” 

If you feel there is something in the way of you connecting, I would recommend having a kinesiology session to help you get clear with your guidance. I was introduced to this method by my kinesiologist some years ago and its been incredibly valuable in my life.
