Six Ways to Access Your Intuition
Author: Anne Deidre Smith
As a contemporary artist and spiritual book author I have
discovered ways to receive very clear information from my Higher
Self. It is an invaluable asset to have the ability to access
your intuition that is to hear the still, small voice from your
Higher Self.
Often in life we believe that other people know more than we do.
While many friendships are healthy and add color to our lives,
it is worth remembering a quote by Gibbons:
"Conversation
enriches the understanding, but solitude is the school of
genius."
Here are six ways to increase your ability to hear your
inner guidance with more clarity:
Meditate
I have found the Kriya Yoga meditation as described in Sacred Science ~ Meditation ~ Transformation ~ Illumination by
Norman Paulsen to be the most powerful way to connect to your
inner Divine guidance. I began to practice this technique, which
includes "I AM THAT I AM" in 2004. A few weeks later I began to
write my first book. I believe that there are no coincidences.
Gratitude
Several years ago, Oprah Winfrey discussed keeping a gratitude journal on her television program. Gratitude is a
portal, a gateway to receiving wisdom. When you express
gratitude to the universe, it sends back to you more and more.
You are giving gratitude, and as you give you are creating a
space within to receive. It is helpful to remember as often as
possible what you are grateful for. Seeing the glass half full,
not half empty, is powerful. When you are grateful, the universe
gives back to you. When you are grateful, you feel joy. Joy is a
magnet, and more opportunities and reasons to be grateful, will
appear in your life.
Intention
The door to inner guidance swings wide open as you set
your intention. Heavenly help is always available. Because we
have free will, our angels and guides are waiting for us to ask.
As we ask, we receive answers. True inner guidance responds in a
kind and gentle voice.
Downtime
After setting your intention, and meditating, it is
beneficial to remain open and in a state of allowing. It is not
often when we are the busiest that we hear our intuition.
Rather, remember that quiet and stillness are highly conducive
to hearing our guidance and creative ideas can flow.
Worthiness
It is important to remember that you are a child of
God. Expecting the best when we ask for clarity and answers is
helpful. There are ego voices that may tell us we are not
worthy. Be aware that this is not our true reality. We are
sparks from our Creator. When we approach God with worthiness,
he responds powerfully.
Forgiveness
In accessing our intuition, it is important to clear
the blocks in the pathway to our inner guidance. Feeling
forgiveness helps in clearing the obstacles. There is an
excellent forgiveness meditation in "A Lightworker's Way" by
Doreen Virtue. You will develop compassion as you begin to see
the light and love that is in everyone. It is very healing to
see yourself in others. It unifies your consciousness. You will
become an even clearer channel for Divine guidance when you feel
forgiveness, mercy and compassion.
