The more you trust your intuition, the more empowered you become, the stronger you become, and the happier you become. ~ Gisele Bundchen
Today’s BEach Inspiration: Be Trusting follows on from the last words I wrote here on Monday: It is time to step back and do some reflection and go inside, listen and TRUST!
Does trusting yourself and your intuition empower you?
The quote by Gisele suggests that, and my friend Michele does too, when saying NO was empowering not just for her but for others. This got me reflecting about times when I don’t trust or even forget to use my inner wisdom, my intuition. I have become very conscious of my words and my thoughts and how they either empower or disempower me and how that can create FUD!.
I am great at tapping into and trusting my intuition sharing it with Des and helping others. I know that when I am quiet and still first thing each morning and when I am journaling and meditating I allow my intuition to the forefront.. I am aware that often as I get caught up in my day I can sometimes move forward blindly or get caught up in other people’s stories- yes I love reading and commenting on blogs and I know this can take my focus away from the task at hand. I need to fan more of the tiny. inner sparks of possibility!
Trust yourself. Create the kind of self that you will be happy to live with all your life. Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into flames of achievement. ~Golda Meir
3 Things to do to learn to trust your intuition more?
- Firstly take time each day to be in stillness, start with 10 minutes morning and evening. ( try 5 minutes if 10 seems daunting at first).Start with 3 deep breaths and feel yourself relax,then……
- Ask yourself the question: What does my inner wisdom want me to know today? Thoughts will come and go, like the wind let them fly away.
- Listen to what you body is telling you- it might be a feeling, a picture, a sound. Allow yourself to listen and trust. You might like to keep a journal beside you and jot down after the 5 minutes, any message you received. This will increase your trusting muscle. (PS I use Insight timer on my phone to keep track of the time.)

Another fabulous post Suzie! My coach only this morning told me to carry a brainstorm book with me at all times and so it will be with me when I mediatte, take a bath etc etc. Love all the tips and love this “I need to fan more of the tiny. inner sparks of possibility!”
Thank you Louise. yes the quote from Golda was opening was the word that came to my mind. I find I use my phone + evernote to joy things down= not in the bath as i have done the drop the phone in the bath and it did after a week in white rice and a day in the sun turn on again. 🙂
Great tips on honing in on your intuition Suzie!
xoxo,

Thanks Angela, you are great guide and teacher 🙂
I’ve seen video of Lissa Rankin and, I agree, she deals with powerful stuff. Jon Kabat-Zinn has written a number of books. The other one I know is Wherever you go there you are, which is also a good read. Nice chatting with you Suzie!
My favourite resource on this topic: Full Catastrophe Living by Jon Kabat-Zinn
Thanks Sandra- I have heard of his other book. Have you Listen to and Read Lissa Rankin on Mind over Medicine? Powerful stuff and I have my own personal healing story of this.
Hi Michele,
Amazing that the body always knows if we choose to listen
Thank you
Hugs back
Suzie,
This is great! I love asking myself questions. Recently I asked myself, “How can I release weight?” The answer was plain to me, “Stop eating hamburgers.” Reason enough for me!
Hugs!
Michele
