Vol. I, Issue 21
YES! Sign me up to receive the free "Know Your Inner Consultant - 5 Steps to the Art of Intuition" live teleseminar audio recording.
Hi everyone. Welcome to my new ezine format. You will now be receiving this ezine just twice a month. I am grateful to you for all your feedback, suggestions, and input since I launched Intuitive Insights back in January.
Many of you have expressed not having time to read it from one week to the next. Others have requested more content-rich information. I decided to honor both. With a new featured article section, there will be more to learn and absorb and since you will hear from me just twice a month - this will give you the time to read and share with others.
Also, in the "Be Inspired" section, I will introduce you to numerous guests who were inspired to follow their intuition and create amazing lives. These will be short 3-5 minute interviews. Enjoy!
Jennifer
The Current Universal Shift
Many years ago, someone said to me that they loved my intuitive sessions because I go directly to the core of issues. I can cut through all that is happening and just get to the heart of the matter. I have just recently noticed how true this is as my sessions have become much more powerful since I moved to California. I am finding that I can summarize an entire hour session in just one sentence.
Maybe that is my next million dollar idea – to have one sentence sessions. I love it – anyway – the truth is my sessions are always surrounding a theme. I can narrow down all the specifics of a session on a child to one central theme and the same holds true for anyone in a session.
Since I am learning that this comes to me very naturally, I wanted to share with you the very simplified condensed version of what is happening in our universe today. We are shifting from mind processing to heart processing. The universe is asking us to create more balance. We are not meant to lose mind processing but instead bring it into balance with heart and feeling decision-making approaches. This is very unfamiliar to us. We find it comfortable in our heads and we leave the emotional feeling processing to infants and children.
Well, that is no longer working. The new generations of children are teaching us this every day. They are here to feel and to remind us to feel. We are being called upon right now to step more into our feelings and emotions in processing our worlds and in making decisions. This is the current universal shift. For many of us this creates discomfort, frustration, and anger because when we default to using our rational minds for decision making the universe creates scenarios where it falls apart. However, as soon as we step into the truth of our feelings about a situation and share it, then the universe creates a smoother alignment and things fall more into place.
Here are 3 steps to help you and your children with this universal shift and transition:
- FEEL: Allow yourself to feel the situation, conversation, or experience.
- MOVE FEELINGS INTO HEART: Let it pass through you without pretending you don’t feel it or without trying to figure it out. A great technique is to move the feeling into your heart. Visualize where in your body you feel the feeling. Then visualize yourself moving it into your heart. Be gentle with yourself when you do this. You may cry, yell, get upset, feel uncomfortable, etc. Just be with it as best you can.
- ACTION: Once this passes, you can then take action. The feeling has been released and you can step forward in action. This may involve making a choice, a decision, speaking up, knowing your next step—this is a much more authentic action than a decision being made from the mind. This method allows the feelings to contribute. The universe will naturally provide for you coming from this place.
I had a difficult conversation with an owner of an art gallery that I have recently been helping out here in Carmel. He said something to me that greatly upset me. I watched my mind want to jump in and fight and defend. I even watched my mind try to make something up to get me out of the situation so I did not have to feel it such as pretend a customer needed help or that I had to use the restroom. I felt so awful inside. It was wild to watch how quickly my mind jumped in.
This time I choose to do it differently. I stood there listening to him. I could feel my anger grow in my hands. My hands were curling up into fists. I guess my mind wanted to punch him on some level. When he was done I moved the feelings in my hands into my heart. I visualized this inside of me. I felt angry and I did want to pretend I wasn’t to make things ok for everyone else.
Once I felt the feelings in my heart, I then took action knowing how I felt and allowing myself to feel it. I turned to him and told him I disagreed with what he was saying. I shared with him that I felt angry and that I did not appreciate his tone with me. I was grounded and firm but did not ignore, pretend, or run away. I said it in a neutral tone.
His eyes got bigger. He was very much expecting me to be upset or argue with him. He then backed down and said, “You’re right. Sorry I was a bit strong in what I said to you.” We talked briefly about it and then the energy of the entire scenario changed. It was gone. It was transmuted authentically.
The universal shift is here and it is ready to stay. We are just learning how to be with this shift. All is happening around us to learn heart processing versus mind processing.
Follow these three steps and things will flow much smoother during this universal changing time. Teach your children these three steps. Most of them already know how to do this. This is why we admire children so much in how they can express their feelings and so easily move on. They release it this way.
This universal shift is teaching us to relearn to be with our emotions and feelings and use them in balance with the mind to step into our own authentic selves.
