The mind can assert anything and pretend it has proved it. My beliefs I test on my body, on my intuitional consciousness, and when I get a response there, then I accept.

~ D.H. LAWRENCE

Practicing the lesson - post your answers below!

• Make a list of all the choices you have regretted in which fear-based beliefs sabotaged your intuition.

  1. Go through the list one by one and say aloud: I forgive myself for believing I made the wrong choice about: (state the item on your list).

  2. Imagine the item on your list is inside a helium balloon attached to your body by a string (your string may look like a metal cable!).

  3. Take a pair of scissors, cut the string as close to your body as possible and watch the item on your list float, up, up and away and disappear.

  4. Repeat this exercise for each item on your list. It may take more than a day! Anytime you feel regret or remorse for a choice you have made, use this technique to forgive yourself. Recognize that even if you judge those outcomes to be "bad" they are not - you learned something valuable from those choices for the future and that is the "what is."

• Here is an exercise to strengthen your intuition. Start using some simple choices you normally make throughout the day. For example, if you have a feeling that you want to wear red today, do so. Notice how your mind may be commenting: "People will look at you. You don't normally dress in those colors. What will people say?" etc. You can see how the ego-mind is editing your experience of life and sabotaging your intuitive feelings. You can use this for deciding:

  1. What to wear in the morning.

  2. Whether you should date that person or not.

  3. What to order in a restaurant.

• Jot down a list of choices you have made in which you have followed your intuition and the outcome was fabulous! Keep that list readily available. When you notice that you are questioning your intuition, take out your list as a reminder of the power of your inner knowing.

• When you have an important choice to make, ask yourself: What is my next step regarding ____________? And - why is my mind trying to make this so complicated?

• Listen to your intuition, pay attention to what you are feeling in your body. When you trust your inner knowing, you do not have to know what the final outcome will be; you simply follow your personal guidance system, discerning between the voice of your ego-mind and your intuition.
