Monday Meditation, Week 5

Decisions, decisions, decisions.

I don’t know about you, but I often find decisions difficult to make. I always have. I need to take time with them. Being a woman, my feelings around my decisions shift with my cycle. Each of my four phases offering new perspectives and insights. I used to feel shame around my process, believing I was indecisive or a chronic overthinker.

I’m learning that my process actually isn’t a problem! My Inner Knowing is very intuitive and wise, and I can trust it. AND I can trust the time it takes to arrive at the answers my whole being can rest in.

This past week, I’ve been working with a new framework to listen to the different aspects of my being that support my Knowing. The next time you’re in the process of making a decision, run it through these four aspects of yourself. Slow down and tune into the Wisdom of each:

The Body🫁: When you consider XYZ, how does your body respond? What messages does it have for you?

The Heart🫀: Then listen to your heart. What wisdom does it have to share with you about XYZ?

The Mind🧠: Let your mind run wild. Mine is usually full of fear, analyzing XYZ from every angle, side-eyeing my body and my heart, busy, busy, busy, and ultimately, just needing to be heard.

The Soul🪽: Float to the depths of your being, beyond the waves of the mind, and ask your soul to guide you. It will. I promise. It might feel totally illogical, or sacred, or simple. Get curious. Observe what you see, hear or feel as you invite your soul to reveal its perspective of XYZ.

May this practice help you expand into new possibilities for your life as you move beyond the intellect and allow the wisdom of your whole being to guide you.

Have a great week!

With Love,

Gillian
