Feeling Things Out

We all have a built in mechanism for identifying when something or someone around us is ultimately good or bad for the life we long for. Most of us ignore this system, or are unaware of it, or even make use of it without realizing it. This system is our intuition, and it is completely functional in all of us. We just need to take a moment to reconnect to it.

Of course, instinctual capabilities may greatly decrease with the introduction of emotional obstacles in our energy bodies. The more closed off from the world each of us is, the less able we may be to access this ability. You need to open your energies, so that you can really feel what I'm explaining to you.

When in attendance of a new person or situation, halt for a second and notice your feelings; Are you anxious? - Uneasy? - Relaxed? - Composed? - Scared? Your emotional energy is a great clue as to the nature of your environment. This is what we often refer to as our sixth sense, or gut instinct. It's also referred to as "vibes", as in "So and so gave off some strange vibes." These feelings are more often than not excellent assessors of our current situation, and you can use them as a signal to move forward or back up as necessary. In instances where we have patterned thinking that causes emotions, we may in reality be causing them ourselves. This is why it is important to be completely open, in order to be sensitive to the energy of any person or situation. Or else, it may just be a mental concoction.

If you would like to hone this ability even more, you should start with working on meditation. As you learn to move into light trance states, and then slightly deeper, emotional obstacles and unhealthy mental patterns can begin to identify themselves. It is far easier to identify and eliminate or heal such patterns and obstacles when in meditation. In some instances, knowing the obstacle or pattern exists may be enough in and of itself to eliminate it.

You may need to seek a hypnotherapist if there are severe issues in your emotional body. Traumatic or otherwise painful events in your past could be damaging a part of your energy field in the present. Seeking a professional to assist in removing such obstacles is a wonderful first step towards getting a hold of your full power. You can also buy healing and hypnosis CD's to play as you go to sleep. Over time submersion into these types of materials can allow your subconscious to begin the healing process, which may take a day, a week, or a year or more, but will in due course resolve in a healthy, happy energy body.

The less closed up you are, and the more powerful and clearer your energy field, the more easily you may be able to detect and perceive all of the distinctions of a given situation. You may be able to tell a bad person by the sense you get right away, and you may catch phonies in their tracks. When things are not going the way they should, or if you are at the right place at the wrong time, you may get a sense of that well in advance, and can alter your plans to mesh with better events.

Take charge of your natural abilities to perceive. Your life can be smoother and happier for it!
