Awakening Your Intuitive Powers
Everything is connected. There is no such thing as physical matter being separate from the mind, nor the mind separate from what is spiritual. Everything is part of the same energy. This is what we call God consciousness.
We are all receiving intuitive perceptions all the times. We just have to stop and tune into these perceptions to receive the insights. This is your intuition. It’s free and available 24 hours a day if you take the time to listen.
What we empower with our thoughts words and actions determines our outside reality. You are literally the programmer for your mental computer which creates your life story.
When you are busy playing the victim role, you are caught up in the effects of your own negative programming. When you’re in touch with your creative energy, you then have the freedom to choose creating a positive reality.
Self growth is a day-by-day, hourly process. You get as much out of it as you are willing to put in, and the rewards are tremendous. You begin to harness your energy like a laser beam to direct your life towards your goals, instead of living as a victim of circumstances.
High energy is the key secret to having the ability to tap into your intuition. When your energy is down, you can’t perceive the unlimited options and choices you have in any situation. Choices are always available but you have to be able to perceive them. Your energy field determines your perception.
It’s important for you to understand that spiritual energy has never been separate from who you are. The spiritual or intuitive self is part of your emotional, mental and physical being. You just need to focus on this part of you. It’s like a muscle that hasn’t been used. But it’s not something you have to find outside yourself or jump through hoops to attain. It’s already within you.
The spiritual or intuitive self is already part of your emotional, mental and physical being. You just need to develop this aspect of yourself. It’s like a muscle that hasn’t been used.
The Key Tools to Develop A hotline to God
The imagination is your bridge to the other side. Practice these examples of guided imagery to help boost your imagination. As adults, many of us have shut off this ability to use our imagination, but it can be easily reactivated.
It is through the imagination that we transmute or change the energy of our life story. Changing thoughts is simple. For example, try thinking of one of the happiest times in your life (pay attention to how you feel); then think about one of the saddest times in your life. After thinking of each of these examples, think about how you felt. When you were sad, did you feel yourself closed in? When you thought about your happiest time, did you feel your energy expand out?
Giving in to negative and disorienting self-talk — sometimes called “chatter” — can impact your health, sink your mood, strain your social connections, and cause you to fold under pressure.
But the good news is that we are already equipped with the tools we need to make our inner voice work in our favor. These tools are often hidden in plain sight. We can help ourselves by using positive words instead of negative ones when we think (or talk) about ourselves, the technologies we embrace, the diaries we keep in our drawers, the conversations we have with our loved ones, and the cultures we create in our schools and workplaces.
Catch your self-talk and say “cancel, cancel” when you hear yourself say something negative. We have the power to change the most important conversation we have every day – the one we have with ourselves.
It may take months of canceling out your negative responses or thoughts but keep at it.
The biggest trap when we are developing our intuitive powers is to think that we are suddenly more special or a self-appointed “spiritual know-it-all” to others. Try not to impose your thoughts on others.
Everyone is exactly where they need to be and you have to allow others the respect of their choices not to work on their spiritual growth as well without judgment!
Opening yourself up to listening to your intuition can also be a tremendous boost to your creative talents and powers. With so much energy and light you are able to receive many heavenly inspirations – through your creativity in art, music, writing, dance or simply coming up with better ideas on how to organize your home or business. An unlimited wealth of ideas, talents and inspiration is there for you daily if you take the time to develop the eyes to see and the ears to hear the insights.
We’re all carrying around emotional baggage from our pasts. The basic strategies of these programs are that we are either less than everyone else and have to constantly try and win other peoples approval or that we’re greater than everyone else and our job is to shape everyone up to our higher level of consciousness. Both of these are untrue. We can be stuck in roles where we are trying to win love and approval.
This “less than, better than” comparison is an endless hopeless struggle. We need to finally learn to stop and see ourselves as we truly are – accessing our positive qualities and strengths and then owning our weakness and working to develop ourselves – this is unconditional love. It has to be given to ourselves from within ourselves. The outward search for it must end.
When we can accept ourselves, then, and only then, we can be just be who we are with others and stop trying to earn their love. Love is already the condition. We just have to rest in it. If people don’t like you for who you really are, that’s okay too. But what you usually find is that when you dare to love yourself and be honest about who you are, people are drawn to you like a magnet. This is the place we are all searching for – its true love.
Changing habits and attitudes requires some work. But doing this goes hand-in-hand with creating your overall health and well being. Everything about you is a reflection of your own self love – your mental, physical, emotional and physical state is a mirror to how you love yourself.
Negative attitudes, habits and thoughts patterns block the flow of energy through our beings, create stress, limit our perspective and immobilize our actions with fear.
Releasing yourself mentally from fear, anxiety and guilt is a prerequisite to gaining greater control of your life. It’s necessary to gain confidence in yourself to trust your intuitive powers. By retraining our mind to develop positive, health self-images we affect the success of our relationships, careers, finances and sense of well being. It is essential!
Some of the fears we let run our lives – abandonment, death, rejection, poverty, success, commitment, intimacy and illness. But the truth is that none of these have the power to destroy or harm us unless we give our power away to them.
We need to empower our love ability and release all the negative emotions. We have to redirect our energy to allow love to become our motivation for all our actions instead of fear. When you shine the light into the darkness, the negative disappears.
In order to tap into the mystical levels of awareness beyond the psychic, we need to be in a relaxed, receptive state of mind. The accuracy of your insights is influenced by your energy and state of awareness; that’s why cleaning out the negative programs inside ourselves is so important. Otherwise your perceptions will be influenced by these limited beliefs and you won’t be able to tap into the good stuff!
You want to use your intuitive abilities for the highest good. If your motive is to use your enhanced awareness to manipulate others into behaving differently or wanting something from them, your channel will not cooperate.
If you have a lot of emotional energy invested in knowing the answers for someone, this will usually color your responses. Monitor your mouth if the person does not want your advice. Rely on your dreams to get insight into yourself because you can’t color your dreams.
