There is an inner navigation system that we all have access to that can help us travel through life and through this world. The emotions are like a beacon in the darkness that constantly remind us when we have strayed off course.
Most of the time our thoughts and the constant noise around us keep us disconnected from the ability to sense how we are feeling. The strong emotions of anger and fear get through, but the more subtle ones can go unnoticed.
Learning to be present and to quiet the mind is the most effective way to allow these emotions to guide us along the best path towards our destiny.
That is why meditation is so effective. By going within and calming the mind, the essence of who we truly are can shine through. It is in these moments that clarity cuts through the fog like a laser beam and enhances our ability to manifest what we desire.
Moments of clarity often come when we are performing mundane tasks, such as showering or driving a car. Taking naps can be helpful too but are not always practical. Many people we consider to be geniuses, like Albert Einstein, have said that through stillness and non-thinking their greatest discoveries or inventions were realized.
The ability to access the stillness in a world that is noisily clamouring for your attention can be difficult. It has to be an intentional process where you set aside time to go within.
Become aware of how you feel in every moment. Check in with the body and see what is there. Sometimes it will feel like a slight uneasiness, other times a buzz of anticipation and joy. These emotions can lead you effectively in the direction you wish to go.
Trust in the inner awareness that is with you in all moments. Know that as you become aware of the sensations and learn what they mean, you will never have to guess or be confused as to what to do.
When presented with a choice, become silent and go within. See what feels right. Sometimes it helps to pick an option, then immediately notice how you feel. The emotions will clearly speak to you and the choice can become obvious.
Sometimes talking to other people about what is going on can help, but it is not necessarily their advice that you are seeking. Saying the words out loud while someone else is listening can provide you with the clarity that you seek.
Try it out and see how it feels. We are innately aware of this guidance, and that is reflected in the language that we use. We often say that something just doesn’t feel right, or that something seems off. This is your internal guidance system kicking in.
It is important to follow the guidance that you receive. While you may be skeptical at first, by learning to trust your intuition and actively seeking it out, it will become stronger and easier to interpret.
The assistance is there in every moment. Know that you are meant to do great things and that there is always support for you to be your best always.
