EP 422: How to Make Sense of Your Intuition with Michaela
b'
This coaching call is about making sense of our intuition. Today\\u2019s caller, Michaela, wants to drop fully into what she is feeling but is unsure whether her intuition is just a fear-based response to her past. She asks Christine for guidance on how to decipher her feelings and how to trust her intuition.

We all have the gift of intuition to varying degrees. Some people, who have more gifts, we might refer to as psychics or mediums. But we all have the gift and the ability to connect to our intuition. And often, when we open up our connection to our intuition, it can be confusing. We may get intuitive messages and not know exactly what to do with them.

The beautiful thing about surrender or letting go is that it does allow for what actually needs to come forward to happen. Surrendering and receiving can feel scary because we have to be still. When we\\u2019re not in motion, either mentally or physically, and stillness comes, it often can trigger a fear response. Because if you grew up with any kind of abuse or chaos you know that when things got quiet, or still it wasn\\u2019t always a good sign; the calm before the storm.

So, we keep ourselves moving to both avoid chaos and to avoid the feelings. Many of us have wounds and trauma that we\\u2019ve been carrying around for decades and if we keep ourselves busy and distracted enough then we don\\u2019t have to feel the pain. If we do surrender and allow ourselves to receive, then there\\u2019s an invitation to feel. And, often it isn\\u2019t the party we want to attend.

The beautiful thing about inner child work is that we have all these beautiful parts of us that come alive again and they become a great source of love.

Consider/Ask Yourself:
-
Do you feel like your intuition is telling you something and you\\u2019re not exactly sure what it means or what to do with it?
-
Have you had a life of lots of doing and you feel this huge desire to just be, but at the same time it terrifies you?
-
Are you someone that is good at receiving or are you better at giving?
-
Are you willing to carve the time out for yourself and change behaviors to connect more deeply with your inner child so that you can feel safe in your body?
