Tapping Into The Right Side of the Brain, Where Intuition Lives.

 

We are told that we are either “right brained” or “left brained,” but the reality is that we use both sides of our brain. We may be more dominant, or have the traits of one or the other, but in order to live and survive, like most things, it is a balance.

Many of us have been conditioned to rely mostly on the left side of our brain (which is responsible for logic and analysis). When we speak of things that are not black and white, we might have been described as frivolous, silly or too emotional, and not taken seriously as a result. Research shows that there is a lot to be said about tapping into the right side of our brain, where intuition, body memory, and the subconscious lives.

Using the right side of our brain is leaning into our intuition. We can strengthen this by using visualization, releasing fear, relaxing and optimizing the physical aspect of our lives to strengthen ourselves.

Once we go into our subconscious and start using our intuition, we start relaxing. We let go of the inner (or outer) critic, and we become more creative. We start letting go and it works more and more in our favor.

Just think what this world could be if more people used the gifts given to them. We would be more fulfilled, useful, and helpful to others.

The video above is the first of a playlist I am creating, entitled "Tapping Into Our Intuition." The series is about believing in, and trusting, ourselves to live life in the most authentic and fulfilling way possible.

Tarot Card Message. Burdens, Choices, and Regret.

The three cards represent carrying a burden and having a lot of choices to pick from. Sometimes waiting for the right time and not feeling rushed is better in the long run. Waiting can be really hard when we feel pressure, but the regret of making a rash decision can be much worse. 

Take your time and do what’s right for you! 

Hopefully this resonates with you and helps you on your path. If someone you care about needs to see this, please pass it on. 

This card is from one of my favorite decks, Golden Art Nouveau by Giulia F. Massaglia.

Journaling - A Spiritual Pathway to Self Discovery.

 


 

The path to self discovery can be a tricky one, and yet the most fulfilling challenge we undertake. As life takes us down many roads, we get to decide on the small, and not so small, aspects to make our journey as aligned with who we are, and our dreams, as possible. 

By using a journal to document our lives, make lists, ask ourselves questions, problem solve, see patterns, and collect inspiration, we gain clarity and light to what is tucked away in our hearts. It has become a spiritual outlet for me, and also amazing therapy.

It makes it easier to understand what’s happening in life, in our hearts, and where we want to go.

In this video, I offer some ideas for your journal, or soon to be journal, as I have found journaling to be a monumental part of my life journey and self discovery. I hope the video brings you creative ideas, clarity, fun, and new ways to navigate your life. The life YOU want to live.

There’s no one way to journal, and are many modalities to pick from. I use audio journaling, video journaling, journaling freehand, and chronicling.

The research shows that the creative process of journaling is good for us mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually.  

Daily life distracts us with an overload of stimuli, including our own internal biochemistry. Journaling creates an opportunity to settle down and set time aside for ourselves to go inward and connect to our spirit.

Please watch the video to get ideas on ways you can journal to guide you to self discovery and spiritual alignment.

You've Done the Work..Now You Are Waiting 😩

 


Waiting is the Hardest Part.

If you have seen my last four blogs on manifesting, you’ve done the envisioning, put the energy out into the universe, and got super organized.

When we don’t see any results, we may ask ourselves, “If I have worked so hard and diligently, should I take the lack of progress as a sign that things are not meant to be?”

The answer is “No!”

Success comes after hard work, and for many of us, a period of waiting. 

Miracles come around corners. We may get unexpected assistance from someone, an opportunity may open up out of the blue, or we might be in the right place at the exact right time.

We may be one step away from our envisioned life, and give up.

So, while we wait, what can we do to keep going, keep our spirits up and our impatience in check?

  1. Remember that we are living, growing organisms, forever evolving and changing. We may not be getting what we want because we are simply not yet ready for our success. If we get something prematurely, we may sabotage things. Taking this time to work on ourselves to be ready for, and manage, our success is crucial.
  2. Create a spiritual relationship with what we are doing. Getting what we want can have a one dimensional aspect to it. When we create a spiritual connection to our circumstances, we  become part of the process. Having the relationship with our spirit, and with who we really are, helps us better embrace, and cherish, our success.
  3. Expect and prepare for competition. Many times envy will come from where we least expect it. It can be from someone who we consider a close friend, or possibly from a family member. It could even be someone we are working with to achieve our dream. Listening to the signs, learning to be selective of who we share our dreams and information with (and not taking things personally) will keep us on our path. And remember, this is about them, not you.
  4. Using the power of our mind keeps us disciplined and on track. For every dream there is a practical aspect. Keep working, keep learning and keep fine tuning.
  5. Be strong internally and spiritually. Anticipating some of the downfalls, and keeping ourselves balanced and rooted, will give us strength through troubled times.
  6. Building a strong bridge between our conscious and unconscious will guide us when we are going negative. Going deep into our subconscious tells us what is blocking us. When we start making the wrong choices, what are we afraid of? Working our subconscious mind together with our conscious mind will help us avoid pitfalls.
  7. Be resourceful with what we already have. Take this period of waiting to look for tools we already have to give us the right resources. Who have we lost touch with, who would be a great contact or connector? What have we learned from our past that can help us navigate our current circumstances?
  8. Unite reasoning with faith. Be practical, and don’t lose faith. Keep believing, and putting forth our best work to keep us on our path.
  9. Stay highly disciplined and diligent. An idea stays an idea until force is applied. Something in motion only stops when force holds it back.
  10. Accepting there is a cost to our gift gives us the commitment needed to go on. Work is no guarantee for success, and we may have to forgo mundane things in our life to continue working. Deciding what we are willing to give up helps us make the right decisions to achieve success.
  11. Seeing our talent as a gift to the world makes it more meaningful. What do we want to leave behind? What do we want to be remembered for? How would we like to be remembered? We are leaving behind our gifts with others as our legacy.

What is Mind Mapping?

 


Mind Mapping is a process of imagining your desired goal as the “trunk of a tree” and then visualizing the branches as they grow outward from the trunk as the steps needed to make it a reality.

For instance, if you choose to focus on your health, you may want to use branches of the tree to represent the following: nutrition, mental health, physical exercise, and medical advice.

As in a tree, the branches grow out further, so what do we need to do to get on a nutrition plan that will give us optimal health? If it is defining your macros, making a meal plan, and learning how to prepare and cook meals, the next set of branches would be doing the calculation for macros, designing a plan to give you the nutrients you need to adhere to your plan, and looking up recipes or taking a cooking class.

Once you get to the minute details, you can take action. This process makes things more digestible and manageable.

Please watch the video for more!

I hope this helps you on your path, and please forward to anyone you think could benefit from this video.
