Self-Empowerment: Learning how to Love You
Posted by Intuition Girl
“You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe deserve your love and affection.” – Buddha
Love is indeed a splendorous thing — but what it boils down to is being able to find the love within yourself to restore the harmony and balance to your authentic self.
Deep within the core of your very existence is the special coding of whom you are — this is your authentic self. It’s that part of your being, which is free from all external influences and inhibitions. When you learn how to love yourself unconditionally, you are able to reconnect with your intuitive soul power; which is in essence, your authentic self. Why reconnect with your intuitive soul power? Because it is the direct link to the universal flow of energy that guides all things living. We are all a part of this beautiful energy source; and when we realize the value and nature of its worth, the more compelled we are to achieve greatness in life.
First, you must learn to love yourself. I am going to discuss a few ways that you can empower your authentic self so you can begin to trust your gut feeling and begin making the best choices for you and your life.
Feed your mind with empowering thoughts, ideas and visions. Life is energy and so is love; and the more love you feed yourself, the happier you will be. Instead of focusing on negative energy in your life, think about the many blessings that exist around you. Surely where you are, there must be nature. And even if all else has gone awry, there is positive energy that can be found in nature. Find a quiet park, stream, or fishing hole. Look around yourself. Nature will provide you with the inspiration you need to move beyond the negativity. Whether it’s an image in your mind or a real-time view of an aging oak tree or a passing flock of seagulls, observe the wonder and beauty of every aspect in these living things. Focus on the outline of your eye’s object. Notice the color, the shape, the size, the feel, the scent. What do you see, what do you smell, how does it feel to the touch? In these last few seconds, I am certain that all negative thoughts were pushed to the wayside. You have fed your mind with empowering thoughts – positive thoughts that transcend negativity. Nature = love. Personal and emotional empowerment is love. When you empower your mind with positive energy, it will send a vibrational signal to every cell in your body and to every living thing in your energy field. That is absolute power at work! It’s phenomenal.
What is absolute power? Have you hugged your dog, your child, or close friend? When you embrace, there is a great force of energy that is exchanged. This mutual energy is healthy and allows your body to arrive at a natural state of total relaxation. That’s a wonderful feeling — not having to worry about why, who, what, where, when…simply being in the present moment of love. That same feeling is what your authentic self provides you. This is your uninhibited, natural source of love. Hug more, touch more, and be in touch with the abundance of love.
Self-Forgiveness. I know, it’s hard to let go sometimes; but this is absolutely critical to rediscovering and empowering the love of your authentic self. A lot of times, we harbor resentment and anger from past emotions and encounters. Even when others may have caused distress, it is still by choice that we continue to preserve these negative feelings. We have to look beyond the anger, 
the fear, the intolerance, and any other animosity to overcome hurdles in our lives. Breathe, slowly – inhale, exhale. Repeat this exercise a few times. Can you feel the negative air clearing your head? It is. Don’t hold onto it anymore. You don’t need it. In fact, you have now taken one of the essential steps to improving your vitality and getting reconnected to your authentic self. With each breath you inhale, I want you to visualize the absolute power of love’s energy flowing into you, and circulating through every part of your physical body. When you exhale, I want you to release all the negative, bent-up emotions. Got anger? Exhale it. Got regrets? Exhale it. Want peace? Inhale it. Want love? Inhale it. Want freedom? Inhale it. Every time you breathe in, attach a positive word to it. When you breathe out, attach your negative baggage to it. That’s it. It is done. You have forgiven yourself and you are now ready to embrace love to its fullest extent.
You must always remember that you are in total control of what you feel and about what you think. Loving yourself is the most liberating, self-empowering thing you can do for you. Start right now by letting go and letting love in…and make every day a blessing.

It’s ok to be “in the gap” where you are not sure. Today is about how being in the gap can be a good place to be.
When Times are tough, do you have a Strategic Mindset?
Posted by Intuition Girl
When the going gets tough, whom can you trust? We’re not always able to trust external sources like the government, banking institutions, and other outside entities. We can, however always rely on our inner intuitive Voice and wisdom, which can provide us with the guidance and light to lead us through sometimes murky waters in our lives. The best way to create a positive environment for success is to educate ourselves so we can be better equipped to make sound choices and create outcomes that serve us, our lives, our families, and our communities.
The first step to create the life you want to lead during these tough economic times is to develop a strategic plan for success based on gut feelings that come from your intuitive talents and by fine-tuning your problem solving abilities. There is a masterful artist within you wanting to escape today’s economic woes — you simply must wade through the clouded passage to gain clarity and awaken your inner consciousness. How do you do that? You begin with a healing meditation for your mind, body, and spirit. Whatever it is you are facing at this time, you must masterfully use your intuition and inner healing powers to transform your current lifestyle.
A good example is if you are between jobs and can’t seem to find the appropriate direction to overcome your job loss — you need to make not one, but several mental prosperity notes to yourself on building self esteem and improving levels of self-confidence. You start this intuitive process by saying a mantra aloud, such as: “I am at one with myself and am in tune with the Universal flow of energy. Whatever I encounter today will be filled with opportunity and blessed by a Higher Source. I am an extraordinary manifesting person and with faith in myself and my God, I can do anything and be anything I want to be.” Just because things aren’t going the way you want them to go at this moment, it doesn’t mean that you cannot succeed. You have to keep your eye on the ball and maintain a deliberate and disciplined focus on the goals you want to achieve. Never give into that part of you that thinks it can’t be done. That is your ego mind speaking, not your authentic self.
Where are you at in your life’s journey?
If you’ve come to a plateau and can’t seem to circumvent or overcome life’s challenges to reach your ultimate destination, you really need to make time to reflect on your life. Make some mental notes to help you to figure out where you want to be today, tomorrow, and in the future. You create solutions by relaxing into the quiet space of creation, the depths of your subconscious where you receive the precious messages from the Divinity within you. From this space, you can manifest any situation you desire. It is through your consistent commitment to your enlightened path that you will find your rewards.
Yes, you can. Have you ever heard the old adage, “If you build it, they will come”? It’s true. But in this case, you will be building a foundation for yourself – a foundation that will give you the momentum to succeed. Reinforce your quiet time with positive thinking. Remember your thought power can either open your mind to receive endless possibilities and resources or it can block your flow. As you continually think of the right solution to your problems and the benefits you will gain from them, day and night, you will discover the right resolution for you. This process also requires having a healthy belief system. Believe in yourself and your power—it is important.
If the stock market’s not faired well in your life, you can always count on your intuition and your inner power to get your through these difficult times – it will never let you down. “But it was my intuition that got me in trouble in the first place,” you say? No, that wasn’t your intuition at work. Believe me, if you were listening to your intuition correctly, you may have avoided a lot of the life lessons you are enduring at the moment. Nevertheless, now is the perfect time to put your intuition to work for you. How so? Earlier in this article, I mentioned that in order for you to overcome life’s struggles, you have to keep your eye on the ball and focus on the positive flow of Universal energy. It’s a no-brainer. When you think and honestly believe you can, you will. Period. You have to believe in yourself 100% and understand that life happens. It’s a fact that no matter what you do in life, you will sometimes run into roadblocks that may delay your arrival at your final destination; but roadblocks do not stop you from moving forward. You simply have to re-route your life map and intuitively get moving in the right direction.
A Philosophical and Scientific Perspective
When you’re GENUINELY ready to create the life you want to lead, you will be astonished at the many things you are capable of doing. You don’t have to crawl back into bed and hope yesterday never happened – in fact, be thankful for it. More people have been able to discover a greater sense of purpose by abandoning a certain part of their lives. Your mind has been crafted and molded by a Higher Power since the beginning of time — the more you focus on positive thoughts and positive outcomes, the greater likelihood you’ll overcome today’s economic challenges to create an extraordinary life for yourself. More importantly, when the going gets tough, you have to learn how to trust and empower yourself to make wise choices in your life on your own behalf. No, there’s no funny wizard of Oz at the end of the yellow brick road, but you can strategically map your life path with your own foundation of trust, belief in your talents and a mastery of your intuition to guide you to a path of prosperity and happiness.
