Job Seekers Must Use Intuition to Heal Fear

Thursday, April 15th, 2010

It’s hard to make sense of things when you are looking for a job. Everywhere we turn the news media, movies and conversations with friends are focused on how many people are looking for work. Sometimes when we least expect it our worse fears throw us into an emotional, mental, spiritual and even physical tailspin.

Gregg Braden in the book, Secrets of the Last Mode of Prayer calls this period “a Dark Night of the Soul.” This is a time in your life when you’ll be drawn into a situation that represents what, for you, are your worse fears. When you are in this stage problems will present on all levels, with business, family and friends. According to Braden each of us will experience the Dark Night of the Soul throughout our lifetime. The first is usually the worse. One female client who has recently lost her job, and is going through a divorce, has faced this twice in the last few months.

Being aware of your emotions is the best way not to let fear control you. Each of us has at our disposal a unique weapon…our sensory arsenal, to alert and warn you when things are going haywire inside. Your internal signals are your intuition. Awareness is power. Here are the steps my client took to shift out of this emotional tailspin:

1. Try to identify what caused the fear eruption. In my client’s case it was an upcoming phone interview that she painstakingly worked to manifest.

2. Take action. One of the best ways I’ve found to energetically shift is to say The Lord’s Prayer out loud 10 times. In addition, to do mindful breathing and repeat a mantra such as “Peace be still.” If you find yourself unable to shift on your own turn to a trusted friend or counselor who will not judge you.

The blessing that occurs for many people, when they heal their fears is that you will be intuitively guided to the best step to follow. In my client’s case she felt a need to physically dress-up for the telephone interview in complete business attire. This action gave her the subtle shift to handle the call with an added layer of confidence and clarity, and she moved into the next stage in the interview process.

Two Steps For Using Intuition to Reduce Risk of Heart Problems

Saturday, February 27th, 2010

Awareness is power.  People who are aware and awake to staying positive in their lives are less likely to develop heart problems, then those who tend to be depressed.  A study published in Europe’s leading cardiology journal, The European Heart Journal, shows that there is an independent relationship between positive emotions and heart disease.  Each of us has the ability to connect with our intuition to transform and transmit ourselves to live longer and healthier lives.  Here are two steps to help you reprogram and heal yourself during times of stress:

1. Check in with your body regularly. Your body is aware of everything.  Every cell knows what you are busy thinking, how your moods change, and where your deepest beliefs lie.  One of the most acute stress levels that many people are facing is the fear of a potential job loss.  Even thinking about losing your job has found to be more damaging then an actual firing.  Our attitude and our interpretation of the challenges we face influence the outcome of our experiences.

2. Stay positive. Optimistic responses can be learned.  Create the belief that any difficulty you are facing is temporary, an isolated circumstance that can be overcome through your efforts and abilities.  Watch the tendency to practice negative behavior patterns such as smoking, drinking excessively and staying up at night worrying about your problems.  If you can not afford counseling consider going to a church for assistance or a non-profit organization which provides services on a sliding scale.  It is often more difficult for men to talk about their problems then women and they are also 80 percent more likely to die of a heart attack or develop a heart problems during times of extreme stress.

Awareness would have no power if your body did not respond to it.  Life is one flow of awareness and our intuition serves as one of the most powerful tools in our life journey to help us create greater health and happiness in our lives.
