Trusting Your Intuition Meditation

In this meditation, you learn to manage your own energy and tune in to what is your energy vs. someone else's energy. This is a key first step in learning to tap into and trust your intuition. You will be guided to a place within yourself that is most open to receiving answers, and knowing who you are more fully.

I went kind of quick,

But now we're going to start to slow down.

We're going to go into meditation.

So if you would,

Give yourself a deep breath in.

Give yourself an easy sigh out.

Exhale out.

You can go ahead and close your eyes and just start to find yourself where you are in your body.

As you relax into your body,

I want you to just think of or feel into a stress that you've been carrying today.

Something that you've been sort of squeezing,

Pressing up against.

I want you to just imagine that all of that tension,

All of that stressor,

Whether it's a conversation,

Whether it's a physical sensation,

Whether it's an anxiety about something.

I want you to imagine that it just collects onto your body like dust onto an old dresser.

You can just see it become dust.

Maybe it's even a certain color dust.

Maybe it's a green dust or brown dust.

And be creative with it.

Once you have all of that sensation created in your mind as dust,

I want you to just imagine that you can give yourself a nice exhale out and you can release that energy.

You can blow that dust right off your body.

You can let it go.

Then you can just breathe in some relaxed energy.

Maybe it's the smell of lavender or a different fragrance that helps you relax.

And then bring your attention to a place in your head.

It can be behind your eyes and in between your ears.

Right there in the center of your head.

And that's where you can start to awaken your inner eye.

That intuitive part of yourself.

Maybe you just want to take a breath or two into that place.

Maybe it feels totally new to you to be in the center of your head.

Or maybe it feels really familiar.

And as you get comfortable there,

I want you to imagine that there's a giant tree trunk that's growing right from your hips to the very center of the planet.

That tree trunk can just grab onto your waist and just drop straight down to the core of the earth.

Maybe that tree trunk gets wider and wider as it gets closer and closer to the center of the planet.

And as that tree trunk grows,

Just feel yourself starting to get more and more grounded.

One more centered.

That tree trunk is going to connect you to the earth,

But it's also a hollow trunk.

One where you can release energy down.

One where you can drop things down that tree trunk and let it fall to the center of the earth to be recycled.

So I want you to just imagine that any psychic weight,

Any stress,

Tension,

Anything you're holding onto,

Maybe it's just some energy that's coming up from doing this type of meditation.

Let it all release down that trunk to the center of the planet,

Almost like a vacuum seal that's just sucking that energy down.

Anything that's not you.

Could be an energy similar to one of the examples I gave earlier.

Could be somebody else's thoughts,

Somebody else's emotions.

Could be somebody else's pain that you've been carrying for a really long time and you finally have permission to release it.

You finally have a space where you can let it go.

Just go ahead and release anything you're holding onto and then bring your focus back to the center of your head.

I want you to just imagine that there's a blank canvas out in front of you or a blank whiteboard out a couple feet from your face.

And I want you to imagine that out on that whiteboard there's an image of a cake.

This cake isn't going to give you psychic powers.

It's just a practice of being able to create an image,

Being able to see a symbol.

Images and symbols have different meanings to us.

They're ways for us to look at different things.

And so your ability to create an image and to see that on that whiteboard out there,

That blank canvas,

Is going to help those psychic muscles.

It's going to help that ability to see images that can give you a message.

But just have fun with it.

It's not something where there has to be a lot of pressure to do it right.

It's not something where if you try really hard you'll be better at it.

With most things in spirituality,

The harder you try,

The least it is to work.

It's just going to be more difficult.

When you can step into ease and fun,

Then it's going to be a lot better.

You're going to have an easier time doing it.

And so just notice how you have that image of that cake.

Can you see all the sides of that cake?

Is it a triple layer?

Is it a double layer?

Can you see it so clearly you can almost reach out and touch it?

Or is it kind of just a 2D picture of a cake as a kid would draw it on a piece of paper?

Again,

No judgments or expectations,

Just observation.

How does that image show up?

And then go ahead and create an image of a bomb underneath it and explode that cake.

Let it blow up in a flash of light and leave that blank canvas.

And then I want you to create the image of a kitten.

Don't worry,

There will be no kittens harmed in the making of this image.

It's just a picture.

And then I want you to take it a little bit further and see if you can make it almost like a Harry Potter image where it's moving.

Can that cat be moving around on that whiteboard?

Can you take it even a little bit further?

And can you have that kitten be playing with a ball of yarn?

Maybe you notice what color that yarn is or how thick it is.

Maybe the yarn and the kitten are moving in high definition,

3D.

Maybe you have some surround sound,

The lamp knocking over in the background as the kitten plays.

This skill of imagery doesn't have to be limited to two dimension.

It can be a 3D image.

And you can take that whiteboard and kind of shake it like a natural sketch until the image of the cat and the yarn is gone.

Or you can take a bomb,

Put it underneath it,

Blow it up.

A few different things you can try.

But clear that image off your screen please.

And then I want to play with another image here,

Another symbol that's actually going to be able to show you energy.

It's going to help you to interpret energy.

So I want you to take a look at an image of a rose out on that whiteboard.

It could be a purple rose,

It could be a red rose,

It could be any kind of rose that you want.

But I want you to,

With your intention,

Have this rose show you how you're doing.

How are you doing right now in present time?

Is that rose standing up straight?

Is that rose sort of bending over,

Crushing under the weight of the world?

Does it have lots of sharp thorns protecting it?

Does it have lots of leaves?

Is that rose sort of bright and shiny and showing itself to you or is it hiding,

Trying to run away?

Maybe that rose is posturing itself kind of in the same tone or mood as you and what you have going on in your life.

Or maybe you see some of the petals wilting or maybe they're very bright and luscious and you can see a dew drop on them,

Full of life.

Just notice the mechanics of what that rose looks like when you put your intention on it to show you your current state.

And after you see the physical makeup of it,

The structure of that rose,

You can just play around with what does that tell you?

What does that make you feel?

Do you notice the correlation between that image and your state?

Did you learn something new about yourself and what's going on with you?

And then I want you to create another bomb underneath that rose and blow it up.

I know you're having fun looking at it,

But let's play with one more image here.

Blow that rose up and create one more rose,

Different color rose out on your screen.

But this time ask that it shows you the energy of something that's been negatively affecting you.

And just notice what you notice.

And maybe the thing that you notice isn't the rose.

Maybe the thing that you notice is that frustration is coming up.

Maybe the thing you notice is that effort is coming up.

Maybe you're getting mad about it.

Maybe there's thoughts that would say it's stupid,

That it's not going to show you anything.

Maybe there's confusion that's coming up.

That's perfect.

That's what we want to bring up.

That could be the negative energy that's affecting you.

And instead of seeing it in that rose,

You're starting to feel that,

Starting to think about it.

Maybe it's coming through in that way instead of in the image.

And you can just release that down that giant tree trunk that you still have attached to your hips,

That hollowed out tree trunk.

You can drop that energy through,

That energy that's affecting you.

Or another way that you can release that,

And you can try this right now,

Is have that rose that's representing the energy of something that's affecting you,

Have it act as a big magnet and call out all of that energy from your body into that rose.

Almost as if you put a big horseshoe magnet behind that rose and it's tuned,

Not to pull metal out of you,

But to pull that energy that's been negatively affecting you.

That pain,

That confusion,

That doubt.

That energy of not knowing what to do next.

Whatever it is for you.

Let that release into that rose.

Maybe you feel it leaving your body.

Maybe you feel yourself starting to breathe a little bit deeper.

Your shoulders starting to relax.

And then go ahead and put a big bomb underneath that rose and blow it up.

Explode it.

Give yourself another deep breath.

We're almost done here.

I want to work with one more image.

We talked about how in the world sometimes people can send themselves negative images.

Images of I'm bad or this sucks.

I don't want to do that.

Whatever it is,

We can work with positive images to give to ourselves,

Help change our state,

Change how we're feeling,

And to collect up our energy.

To have more of who we are.

And so that's what this next tool is going to be.

This next image.

So go ahead and be in the center of your head,

That place behind your eyes and in between your ears.

And imagine that there's a big,

Giant golden orb that forms two feet above your head.

Just like a big golden sun.

And imagine that that golden sun works similarly as a magnet,

But instead of pulling something out of you,

It's going to call back all of your energy.

Any energy that maybe you had scattered into your day,

Maybe you left part of yourself in a conversation,

Left part of yourself in your to-do list,

In the past,

In your hopes for the future,

Let this big golden sun have such a gravity that it calls back your energy.

And that golden light is going to purify it,

Bringing it to the highest and brightest vibration that you can give to yourself right now.

And that high,

Bright vibration is one that's going to be nourishing to your body,

Nourishing to your energy centers.

It's going to let you have more of who you are.

You might not have an intellectual sense of that,

But you'll get to have more of it within you.

So when that golden sun is big and bright,

Imagine yourself reaching up and popping a hole in the bottom of it,

And that gold pouring in through your head,

Down through your face,

Into your neck,

Into your shoulders,

Torso,

Legs,

Out into your arms,

Hands,

Feet,

And just fill up your entire body with that golden energy.

And when you see yourself totally full of that bright golden light,

You can give yourself another deep breath in,

You can give your body a little wiggle,

A little stretch,

And you can come on out of meditation.

You can slowly open up back to the world.

All right.

Thanks for being here.

Thanks for being in this course.

See you later.
