Self Trust + Self Love
Self Trust and Self Love are very much interlinked. Women are naturally highly intuitive and psychic and we have the ability to have such a deep connection and relationship of knowing. This has been trained out of us over the years, and if we truly harnessed this power, our potential would truly be infinite. You may know anecdotes in your own life of when you just ‘knew’ something, or the friend that just had the gut sense that something was happening. I have this quite intensely as I am the ‘worst’ kind of psychic, claircognasant – we don’t hear things, we don’t see things, we don’t smell things, we just ‘know’ things! It’s been really difficult to decipher the ‘knowing’ with paranoia – and learning to really trust myself. A good tip with this is, intuition and a ‘download’ comes as a fully formed sentence usually, out of nowhere, it’s not traced back to an anxiety / thought process. Paranoid on the other hand feels ‘scatty’ and ‘chaotic’ and like there’s a rush of anxiety with it. Learning to decipher the two is key to harnessing your intuition and self trust. But a less psychic way of harnessing this is decision making.
I used to ruminate over the most ‘simple’ of decisions, what to eat, what to wear, what to say etc. I would call in advice from friends for the most simple of things, and when I look back – I never was really wanting their ‘intel’ or expertise on these topics, it was more for someone to grant me permission to do the things I wanted to do anyway. We are conditioned as women to be cautious and do the ‘right’ thing, but a real self love(and self trust practise) is owning your decisinos and knowing they are authentic to you. So a task I would ask you to do over the next week is
1. Be conscious of your decision making in every day situations, don’t judge it, just be conscious of where you’re at with decision making
2. Stop asking for advice. This may feel counter intuitive but for the next micro decision: eg. What to wear to X event / what to say to Y person – ask yourself just to consult YOURSELF
This is such a simple exercise but once you start it, it gets much simper and you’ll notice you’re listening to yourself more, cutting out the outside opinion. Once we start harnessing this power on a micro level we can transfer to a macro level, and we are then living authentically – which is the most magnetic form of self love, and we are being and accepting our true self. .
