<\/a><\/p>\nOur Outer-voice, the used daily with strangers and loved ones, is a reflection of your Inner-voice, also known as Inner-guidance.\u00a0 Do you trust your Inner-voice or do you consider it useless woo-woo, that interferes with logic? I spoke about inner-guidance, and dreams in depth on the Dr. Oz Show The Sixth Sense: Shocking Premonitions.<\/em><\/p>\nIf you answered yes to the woo-woo part of the question, you are not alone. <\/strong><\/p>\nBut, are you missing an important component of your whole being? Your Inner-voice is connected to your Spirit, the part of you that remembers everything because it is eternal. So, might you be missing out on a fantastic resource for surviving the difficult choices you face on a daily basis for life?<\/p>\n
Three ways to connect to Inner-guidance is through dreams, prayers and meditations. In the audio section of this multi-media article you are given a very short protection meditation using visualization. I use it nightly and find that I sleep much better than when I forget to do it. It is very shot but very powerful.<\/p>\n
Use meditation any time you feel threatened or need to relax. <\/strong><\/p>\nPlease, do not listen to this meditation if yu are driving a car or handling equipment. If you are driving and need a meditation break, pull over into a rest area.<\/p>\n
Validation<\/strong> is the key to guidance by Inner-voice. Your intuition loves to be tested by you because it is an opportunity for self-worth and self-belief. Watch for signs, symbols and proof-positive events during the day to verify your innate guidance. It may have been heard as that quiet inner-voice. You do not need to search for validation or make it fit a situation. There is no need to hammer a square peg into the round hole of life.\u00a0 Validation will find you and fit perfectly into your life. Validation is individual.<\/p>\nAn A-ha moment<\/strong> usually follows the moment-of-truth with the physical response of goose bumps. The next time you wonder if what you are thinking or feeling is correct check your arms for the tell-tale goose-bumps of validation.<\/p>\nNow that you know how to test your Inner-guidance, how can you use it to create a fulfilled and meaningful life? What has been gnawing at you in terms of truth? Do you have questions about your job, or a relationship you find challenging? Should you make a change in some aspect of your life? Perhaps you need a new car but are not sure which one to purchase.<\/p>\n
Quiet your body and your mind will follow.\u00a0<\/strong>Next ask your Higher-power your question. Voice your challenge. Then listen for that quiet Inner-voice followed by validation goose-bumps.<\/p>\nHow often do we prayer for guidance but never listen or watch for the answer that may come from within.<\/p>\n
For some of us, stepping outside our comfort zone of traditional prayer may be frightening. But try it. You may like it.<\/p>\n
