2. Introduction: A Note From Susan Mathews.
Over the past few weeks, I have been writing about intuition. As I write about intuition I find myself reflecting on how developing my intuition has enhanced and changed my life (for the better) in many ways.
There are many paths, experiences and situations that can open the door to our heart and soul. Learning how to develop intuition was a doorway that opened to me, at a time when I was just reawakening spiritually and beginning a somewhat long path of inner healing.
As I walked thru the doorway of developing my intuition, I was surprised that it led me into a deeper relationship with the Divine and with the deepest part of myself.
Before I knew it, I was committed to living a soul led life. I kept moving forward on this path until I could no longer “see” the door behind me and I knew there was no turning back.
This issue of Happiness Information 4U will explore some of the benefits of using intuition, what it means to live a soul led life and how the two are connected.
If you are reading this, chances are that you have already stepped on the path of living a soul led life. If you haven't however, I invite you to do so now. You will not be alone. If you are already on the path of living a soul led life, keep walking.
3. Thoughts on What it Means to Live a Soul Led Life.
Life presents us with opportunities to gain a deeper insight as to what matters most to us.
For instance, when we experience an unexpected death of a loved one or hear of a tragedy, we are stripped to the core and everything that we thought mattered to us on the surface falls away and we are left with a deeper awareness of what really matters (love, family, friends, compassion, forgiveness, etc).
This deeper awareness of "what really matters" comes from our soul and can direct us in living a soul led life.
It is not necessary however, to awaken to our soul only thru loss and difficult experiences. We can be awakened thru joyful experiences, contemplation, creativity and many other paths that reconnect us to our soul.
What does it mean to live a soul led life? When I refer to living a soul led life I am talking about knowing what your deepest desires are and living them. Living a soul led life requires us to know what is in our hearts and to know what our true priorities are. When we live a soul led life we are connected spiritually to the deepest place within ourselves and to whichever higher power or energy that we believe in. We trust intuition and inspiration and we act on both.
Living a soul led life is much different than living a life in which we are not in touch with what’s in our heart. However, living a soul led life does not mean that life will always be joyful and we will never feel despair, disappointment or anger. It means that we will acknowledge, accept and embrace difficult emotions rather than suppress them. We learn how to move thru and release these emotions in a healthy way. In the end, we emerge as a stronger, wiser and more compassionate human being.
Living a soul led life means that we will face life’s challenges with the awareness that each challenge is an opportunity to learn, grow and heal. We understand that even in the midst of a challenging situation we can allow our heart to lead the way. When we live a soul led life we practice forgiveness, both towards ourself and towards others. We heal the parts of ourselves that need to be healed.
While living what’s in our hearts can require us to be courageous and to move thru fears or doubts, the rewards are great…
Living a soul led life leads to deep inner peace and happiness. We have a clearer understanding of our life’s purpose and experience a greater joy in everything that we do. Our life unfolds in ways that we could have never imagined otherwise. We feel fully alive, living our life on purpose rather than just going thru the motions. We strive to follow our heart in all that we say and do. Living a soul led life helps us to live and die without regrets.
4. Using Intuition to Live a Soul Led Life.
Living a soul led life requires us to be alive intuitively. Our intuition is the vehicle in which our soul, higher self and the divine can communicate with us on a physical level. Developing intuition is one of the most valuable things that we can do as we journey down the path of living a soul led life.
Our intuition is always right and it always guides us in a way that is for the highest good and it always has our best interest in mind. How does intuition relate to living a soul led life?
- Using intuition deepens our spiritual awareness and connection.
- Intuition awakens us to our deepest desires and dreams.
- Intuition guides us every step of the way in fulfilling our goals, desires and dreams.
- Intuition can help us to know how to best move thru difficult situations.
We could say that learning to recognize, trust and follow our intuition is the cornerstone to living a soul led life. Developing intuition can be a great first step to living a soul led life or it can simply help to deepen or enhance the soul led life that you are already living.
5. Book Recommendations on Developing Intuition.
There have been many books written on intuition. Here are some of my favorites. If you are interested in exploring and expanding your intuitive development, I highly recommend these books.
To preview each book and to get a sense if one or more of these would be a good fit for you, just click on each book's title.
Divine Guidance; How to Have a Dialogue with God and Your Guardian Angels - by Doreen Virtue, PH.D.
Developing Intuition; Practical Guidance for Daily Life - by Shakti Gawain.
Trust Your Vibes; Secret Tools for Six-Sensory Living - by Sonia Choquette is also one of my favorites (sorry though, no preview available on this one but you may want to check your local library).
If you prefer a more scientific (but still practical) approach, You are Psychic; The Free Soul Method - by Pete A. Sanders, JR. is also good.
See you next month, when our paths will meet again. Until then, enjoy nurturing your intuition and living soul - fully!
