Lesson 280: Check In WEEK 40 - Tuning Into Guidance

The week was about getting in touch with the inner self. Some inner knowing and allowing that to come through. We are to complete the following statements:

• Some of the signals that my body gives me to indicate that I'm on track are______

• The best time of the day for me to tune in and trust my knowing is______

• What I know for sure______(and why I know it) is______

---

My answers:

• Some of the signals that my body gives me to indicate that I'm on track are being alert, feeling good and not sluggish, and bringing forth my inner knowing.

• The best time of the day for me to tune in and trust my knowing is first thing in the morning or at night when no one can bother me

• What I know for sure is that I am in control of my life (and why I know it) is because I make my own decisions and it’s also my life and not anyone else’s.

Lesson 277: Be Clear On What You're Asking

Today is about being precise in the questions you ask with your clearing practises that allows self-nourishment. Your questions should involve a “name, time, place”. For example, rather than asking “Should I clear my home today?” you may ask “Would it serve my highest and best good to clear the bookcase right now?”.  There is more precision in the question to allow a better outcome. It also allows you to focus on smaller pieces in order to get to the overall chunk without overwhelming yourself.

I honestly can’t say that I had a need to ask questions today. The only reason I say this is because my day was quite set – go for a walk in the morning, go to work, catch a tram to meet my friend and go out for dinner. I mean I could have asked a more precise question at dinner of “would this mushroom dish be the best nourishment right now?” but I didn’t. I was pondering on what to eat but then I just made strict decisions and didn’t back out on them. I guess it’s something to take on board for tomorrow. It’s also something to practise for future. I can definitely practise this on the weekend when all I plan to do is chores, study and work on my business website.

It actually makes you think about decisiveness and whether you lack it or not. I mean, when you start having doubt on a decision, you end up not making a decision or don’t feel good about the decision you’ve made. Just by asking yourself a question with more specificity, it makes the yes or no answer worth more. If it’s yes, great! You will go through your task without a thought in the world. If it’s a no, then you can think about something else which feels good to you and ask again. It’s all about making good decisions so that you aren’t hung up on the answer - a letting go so that you can get on with the task at hand. And, this goes for the questions you ask others. Be more precise and see better outcomes.

Do you think you can be more specific in your questions? Do you think it’s something you will use moving forward? I think it’s achievable.

Lesson 275: Open-Ended Queries

Following on from last week with the theme of knowing, there is an extension into this week. Rather than leaving yourself open from asking further questions, could you possibly turn it into an open ended statement? Examples below:

• "One thing from this menu that would nourish me right now is______"

• "One task that I can do that would help me feel more productive this morning is______"

• "A one-minute clearing exercise that would help me feel lighter (clearer, calmer) right now is______"

I think for my Monday, I was a bit absolute with a particular situation I wanted over and done with. Rather than asking myself what should I do? And should I do this?, I made a bold decision to just make my peace and go with it. I don’t really want to talk about the situation in detail as people may see this post, though what I did do was tell myself, okay I’m going to send this message and this will allow this situation to pass from this stand still. I did away with questioning it and allowed myself to release. It felt good after I did it and it allowed a decision to be made. What decision did you make today?

Lesson 273: Check In WEEK 39 - Knowing

I felt like this week was teaching me what to do when I didn’t know how to answer my question. It didn’t focus on intuition like I thought it would – trusting your own answers from within. I think initially it was good in telling me that if it feels right go with it and if it feels bad, then don’t, but I didn’t really think about what to do when I just didn’t have a feeling or an answer. If anything, the week clarified for me that you can definitely put questions on hold in order to get the right answer. Sometimes just putting it out in the Universe is all you need. I think it was good in learning that you don’t need to have the answer straight away and stepping aside might just be the trick to figuring it out.

Day 272 - A Year to Clear - Burning Questions

Lesson 272: Burning Questions

I feel like today’s lesson is a repeat of what I’ve mentioned in previous lessons. When we have those burning questions and no answer, sometimes we need to just walk away and do another activity before we gain the clarity we need. Sometimes going for a walk to clear your head will allow the clutter to clear in your mind in order for the answer to come. If you ask the Universe before you sleep to give you answers in your dreams and allow you to remember them in the morning, that’s another method of gaining some answers. Maybe you might take a hot shower or bath, to relax your body which in turn relaxes the mind before an answer pops up. Whatever the method, sometimes we just got to distract ourselves for a moment to gain an answer. I personally meditate to gain some more clarity. The challenges I’ve been having during the week have been answered through advice of friends as well as seeking answer from my guides in spirit. In the lesson, it’s mentioned that to gain a clear answer, ensure your question is clear. I think I try to be specific as possible because I know in my witchcraft, if you’re unclear in what you want, you may not necessarily get back what you seek. The more specific you can be, the more the answer is precise. I believe this to be true, does this work the same for you?
