A New Spiritual & Intuitive You – Day 4

But first, the best thing is to understand how they come to you.  You can get a message inside of you or outside of you.  For most people, the easiest way to start is to tune into your feelings.  Usually, the messages we receive inside of us can be an emotional feeling, such as feeling happy and comfortable, or feel repulsed and tense. It may feel like a slight urge, or as if you are drawn to something.  An analogy might be that it’s the same feeling you get when a friend says to you, “Hey, come here look at this!”  You have a feeling of openness and, of course, are drawn by your curiosity to find out what is so interesting that they want to show you.

What does it mean to be “drawn” to something?  I give my clients an example of the feeling you have when you are, say, reading a magazine and you see a picture of a piece of chocolate that looks so good, you’re drawn to it, you can almost feel how good it will be to taste it.   Or maybe a picture of a vacation spot that looks warm and inviting, you feel drawn to going there.   There aren’t many words or concepts that go along with it, it’s just a feeling.

In the beginning, we receive our messages more clearly when we are not so worried about the out come, or when our Egos are quiet.  The best ways to practice is with simple choices, for example, choosing what to eat at the lunch stand.    So choosing what to eat for lunch is a good one.  Instead of buying something you normally eat, try something new, something unknown.   You begin by asking a question as you are looking over the choices, “What should I pick today?”  “Which one will taste good and feel good in my stomach?”  Be open to receiving, as you look over your choices, one may catch your eye, it may look brighter or more colorful to you.  You may even imagine what it will be like to eat it and how you will feel after you’ve eaten it.   The one that feels best to you, the one that you may be drawn to, or the one that you keep coming back to, is the right one to choose.  Then you get to see if you’re right by eating it!
