@taci,,

How are things in your neck of the woods? I hope you get some rain and soon.
Oz will send you some. Enjoy the season. 🙂

Trusting Your Gut

Part of being an intuitive person is becoming in-tune with, and trusting, your power center.

Gut feelings earn their name from the place in the body where they make themselves known. A pang in your gut when you may be doing the wrong thing, or a vibrant zing when your body approves, can guide you reliably at times when logic fails. Sometimes, when logic prevails, we ignore our gut and live to regret it, understanding later that a rational approach is only one way of determining what is going on in a situation and how we should react.

Our gut resides in the neighborhood of our solar plexus and the third chakra just above your belly button. When it is functioning well, we can trust its guidance and adjust our actions accordingly. Many of us have a tendency to hold in this area of our bodies. We may take shallow breaths that never reach this vital nexus that is the source of our empowerment. It is in this place that we find the courage to act, to reach out into the world and create change. When our power center is out of balance, we are timid and out of sync, wishing we had said something we were only able to phrase later when we were alone; wishing we had acted on an opportunity we didn’t see until it was past.

In order to utilize your power center, you may want to focus your attention on it more regularly and make time to care for it. You can begin right now by taking a deep breath into your belly. On the exhale, pull your navel in toward your spine so as to empty out completely before taking another deep breath into your belly. When you empty completely, you release stagnant energy and create more space to be filled with fresh, nourishing breath. The more you practice this simple, cleansing exercise, the more clear and communicative your gut feelings will be and the more comfortable you will feel acting on them.

@kitttengirl,

Thinking of you and I hope things are well with your daughter. Enjoy this fall day. 🙂

@bichon18,

I am glad you are home and so glad you had a great trip. 🙂

I saw your post below and I am moving you up here. I am doing fine. 🙂

I hope the storm is not near you. ♥

Cherie ♥

This is for you happy fall. ♥

Good Morning Cherie,

I had a rough day yesterday and I am snapping out of it. When I do a gallery it is whatever
pops into my head.I am alright now. The sadness is going away somewhat. I am showing
Fall and the Food that goes with Fall. ♥ We have had a lot of rain and my kid lives on the
Coast of Georgia and may be affected again by the storm. I hope I am not too gloomy
I try to keep it cheerful. ♥ I hope you get some rain soon as you can see there is plenty
to go around. Hey enjoy your day and take it easy. 🙂 Well welcome to fall.

Cherie these are for the kids.

@loaf,

God bless your friend. Our daughter lives on the Coast of Georgia. I am like here we go
again. Prayers for all who are in it’s path. Everyday there is something going on.

How is your MIL? We are in the 40;s here and I love it. I just don’t want it to get any
cooler for now. 🙂

@loaf,

I am so glad that is working for you. I can’t wait to get my labs and see what is happening.
I watch my diet and my weight so far so good. I know life can throw you an ugly curve
and I am hoping all my bases are covered. I just took an Andrew Lessman Coenzyme Q-10.
I remember you recommend that for me. So far I am not on a statin and I hope to keep it
that way god willing. ♥ Loaf is this it? I have everything bu this I want to see where my
numbers are and I may just order this. ♥
