One type of relationship we often forget about when discussing "relationships" is our relationship to ourselves. Yet, this is the most important relationship of all. If I don't have a good relationship to myself, how can I have a good relationship w/ others? I heard someone say recently that my success can never exceed my self-esteem. I would suggest this is also true for relationships. The health of my relationship can never exceed the health of my relationship with self.
Have you taken time lately to look at your relationship to self?

Part 2 of 2: Defining Joy
The undercurrents of our lives exist as a direct connection to our intuition. They are the feelings that we can choose to listen to. Intuition has so many useful applications. We are all familiar with the "bad" feeling we get when we are in a situation that is unsafe, or a person makes us uncomfortable for no apparent reason. These intuitive feelings seek to keep us safe. They are apart of our emotional guidance system.
These feelings can also serve as guides in our lives for direction, meaning, and joy. They are indicator feelings. If you subscribe to the belief that there are no coincidences than these feelings when trusted can lead to amazing moments of self discovery, and new directions in life. The source of these feelings is the subtle field of possibilities that arise on the sub-atomic level as a behavior of particles. the source of that activity is a part of the great mystery whose nature is theorized rather than determined.
When wondering if these feelings should be trusted, in my experience there is a knowing that accompanies this intuition that has no basis in fear. It is a knowing akin to knowing that for at least the next 5 billion years, the sun will rise and set. Ok,so how is this voice heard? That is the question that has a process.
The process is quiet, quiet in the place, quiet in the mind. Allow the thoughts to come and go, for those without practice this may take a while. Eventually, noise of thoughts about anything and everything will quiet down. This is the time when your true intuitive voice can be heard clearly.The feeling that accompanies these messages is a tranquility that builds, moving through the body slowly to all energy centers, clearing the grime, doubt, stress, and worry from our emotional bodies. It is also a good idea to keep a notepad handy for after your session, recording important intuitions for later review. So I want you to try this and post your results. I am excited to see what messages you have received from your higher intuitive self. Happy listening!!!!
