What mask are you wearing today?
Posted by Intuition Girl
Last week, I briefly mentioned the word mask? What is a mask and how does it relate to all of us? We all have many different types of masks we like to put on each day. One maybe happiness, the other frustration and another – I have hardships.
The key for all of us is to identify the underlying meaning behind each mask and see if the one you are wearing today is serving you. If not what can you do on a daily basis to begin to make the necessary changes?
The word responsibility keeps coming up among clients and friends lately. There is change going on for so many of us right now. I used to hate change, but now I really embrace change as I have learned to fall in love with the unknown.
In order to heal and grow even deeper we must embrace what is going on and decide what we want to do about it. At the end of the day, we are all responsible for our actions and/or reactions. If we are stuck in the mud, maybe we need to enjoy that experience for a while. If we feel unhappy about being in the mud, then it is our responsibility to either call out for help or get resourceful and choose a different experience.
We are on earth and whether we like it our not–things happen! When I have been in situations that just didn’t work for me anymore or that didn’t feel comfortable, I begin to look for ways to change and create something different.
When you are tired of sitting in the mud and have really had enough you will begin to do something about it. The only way our lives are going to be different are if we take responsibility and choose different action.
Please read on to my two new questions this week from my readers, Mary and Sammy.
Many Blessings,

Are You Fighting Two Sides of You?

How to overcome your inner battle
We’ve all been at various points in our lives where we fight our inner demons to determine which way to turn to achieve success. These inner battles are actually quite necessary because they are what lead to both a spiritual healing and emotional healing process of the mind, body, and spirit. While you may not think it’s important to use meditation to develop your intuition at these times in our lives, quite the opposite is true. In fact, when you are battling the “two sides of you,” it is the perfect time to promote healing through meditation.
When I talk about the “two sides of you,” I’m referring to the inner struggle of the mind and soul – one side of you truly wants to manifest success in all areas of your life; the other side of you feels like giving up on your dreams because of current economic situations, past emotional traumas, physical health conditions, or relationship problems, among others. On which side are you presently focused?
To better explain the “two sides of you,” there’s an old story, where a man tells his grandson about two battling wolves that dwell within our spirit. One wolf is gentle and good-natured; while the other wolf is filled with anger and other negative emotions. Each metaphorical wolf wants to dominate the individual’s spirit. The grandson, in his amusement, asks his grandfather, “Which one wins?” To which, the grandfather replies, “The one you feed.” This simple story relays how intuition and emotional healing can play a vital part in bringing about success in one’s life.
If you want success stories like the rich and famous, you must use your intuition to positively feed your spirit. Like chicken soup for the soul, you must fine-tune your intuition by practicing daily meditation.
Even if your spiritual healing meditation is just five minutes each day, you will amaze yourself with the results you achieve. It’s not just about feeding your positive thoughts and emotions; it’s about properly training your mind and soul to become the person you want to be. Your success depends on how you draw from your intuition to manifest the lifestyle you want to have and lead in life. Remember, happiness is what you make it; which side of you wins the battle is entirely up to you.

Finding Happiness in Nature
Posted by Intuition Girl
When I was young, a childhood friend told me that if I held a buttercup beneath my chin, and my chin glowed yellow, it meant that I liked butter. Now, I tried the buttercup experiment, and sure enough, my chin glowed yellow. It was such a silly little amusement, but I remember smiling to myself knowing that a simple flower could say so much about me. Of course the buttercup glowed a faint yellow beneath my chin because I was out in the sunlight and the manifestation of the bright gold color was only evident because of the sun’s light.
There were a few lessons to be gained in the buttercup experiment: trust, was the first. I learned first that I had to trust that the buttercup would glow beneath my chin; and it did. The second lesson was that in nature, all things are possible. The third lesson was that the sun is a remarkable thing that not only brings us the warmth and light to give life to all the earth, but that it has the power to do miraculous things. I smile when I think about this because in my mind’s eye, I can recreate the time and feeling of how a lowly buttercup was able to make me giggle…and believe in something that I may not have before.
You can learn a lot from nature. Especially when you’re sitting in the sunlight, standing beneath a shady oak, or just smelling lilacs as you stroll through a park. You’ll find that happiness is all around you if you only open your eyes to it. Didn’t you know that the wondrous part of nature is that it can bring to light some of life’s most beautiful creations?
The best part is that you don’t have to search very far to find happiness in nature. It’s in the wind, the buzzing bees, the drifting clouds, and in the cricket’s chirp. Happiness is, after all, a mirror image of the life that surrounds us. But it doesn’t just surround us; it’s a part of us. That’s the beauty of it. We are all interconnected to the glorious creation and wonder that we call the Universe. This great big expand of everything and all things, which is a reflection of who we are and why we exist. And it’s the energetic flow of the Universe that bonds all of this life together. Isn’t it amazing?
Smile. When you smile on one side of the world, it creates a positive ripple effect in the Universal flow of energy. Ever heard the phrase, “Smile and the world smiles with you; cry and you cry alone?” It’s true. When you smile, your face lifts up, your eyes light up, and your insides feel all warm and gushy. When you frown, every thing comes to a screeching halt. That’s the amazing power of happiness. To delight in happiness is to be at one with nature. And when you’re at one with nature, you are at one with the Universal flow of energy. Yes, nature is in all things; smiles included.
If you can’t seem to put a smile on your face, you can always go outside and pluck a buttercup. While holding a small hand mirror, place the buttercup beneath your chin. If it glows yellow, you like butter…or maybe it’ll just make you smile like it made me.
