Are you looking for guidance? Not sure that you can trust yourself?
I have created a free, online course called Access Your Intuition and people are asking me how to trust your intuition. And I’ve been thinking about what my recipe is for learning to trust myself.
So here is one way that I became better at developing my intuition. (It is by no means the only way.)
Recipe:
-
Don’t listen to yourself.
-
Screw up really, really big.
-
Ignore what your body is saying to you.
-
Rinse and repeat.
-
Do this for months. But it is better if you do this for years!
It wasn’t until I grew really frustrated with myself that I decided to trust myself and my intuition. I could not see any other way.
I had already tried doing what I THOUGHT was right.
I had considered other people’s points of views regardless of how I felt.
In the end it was out of sheer desperation that I knew I needed to resuscitate my soul and listen to my body and my intuition.
And that is when my world shifted for the better.
I committed to honoring myself fully.
Now, if you want to take things to the extreme, feel free to give my recipe a whirl. It’s a miserable journey, but you will learn a ton.
If you would rather not make it to that point though, then decide that you are doing what it takes to honor yourself and see what happens.
What changes do you desire to make? Where does your soul want to go that you have been afraid to follow? What is your body trying to tell you?
It is through stretching beyond our comfort zone that we learn how to thrive, even in the face of fear.

Great advice, Rachel! I’ve learned to trust myself after experience serious burnout from a successful corporate job and having to make better choices. It feels hard at first because it’s foreign but once I’ve gotten used to it, it’s much easier. Thanks for sharing!

This message is so timely for me. I have been so scared about the financial bind I have found myself in. Paralyzed with fear, really, and blaming myself. But I have recently come to the conclusion that my fears and feeling unsafe in the world are coming from a lack of trust in myself, and not feeling that I am enough to see my way out of this and into the life that I truly want. And I am realizing that trust in myself is where it all begins, and it will see me through everything. Without it, nothing will change.

Wonderful to realize! You are more than enough.
