How does the Universe talk to you?
The Thanksgiving holiday is typically thought of as a day to express gratitude for our abundant blessings. These are often tangible things such as food, health, family, and so on.
But how often do you give thanks for the intimate messages the Universe gives to help you move forward, or even recognize that’s what it’s doing?
Here are just 4 ways the Universe communicates with you:
Synchronistic signs like: A stranger shares an opportunity you’ve been contemplating. A bird or animal keeps appearing whenever you think of a loved one. A book falls open to the exact page that holds your answer. You think of a friend and they call you. Pay attention to what you call a coincidence and you’ll see it’s often the information you need in that exact moment.
Pay attention to the way your body responds to people, places, or circumstances before you have a chance to think. Notice if there’s tightness in your chest during certain conversations. Do you feel a subtle ease in some environments but not others? Do you have a strong feeling about a person you’ve never met or a place you’ve never been? These sensations are sophisticated communications born from a unified intelligence before there was even a thinking mind. Your body doesn’t know how to lie and will tell you through subtle feelings if you’re in a situation that’s right or wrong for you.
Discomfort and physical pain are the Universe telling you something needs to change. These let you know your beliefs or behaviors don’t line up with reality and you’ve strayed from your authentic path. Do you have chest pain when you walk into your work place? Do you get a headache when you’re with someone close to you? While these symptoms aren’t punishments and it’s absolutely okay to experience everything you feel, you can use pain and discomfort as navigation tools. You can get curious about your problems and the messages they may have for you, versus trying to avoid them. As Alan Watts says: “When you approach discomfort this way you transform it from an enemy to be defeated, to a teacher to be heeded.”
Have you ever wanted something so desperately, but didn’t get it until you gave up wanting it? Or have you ever efforted on goals or made plans only to see everything fall through, and then something even better came along? This is the Universe helping us let go of our rigid thinking and excessive struggling. We take ourselves and our life too seriously. The Universe knows there’s nothing to seek because everything already exists on some level. It is constantly nudging us toward a more balanced perspective. Have fun with creation, it seems to whisper. Everything is for you, through you. Enjoy!
In fact, there’s no time the Universe is not communicating with you. Then why do we miss our messages?
Because we imagine we are separate. We’ve been conditioned out of our unified naturalness and have forgotten what it is that permeates our world and every cell of our being. It’s like we’re fish looking for the water we’re swimming in.
And here’s the remarkable thing—the more you pay attention to your messages from the Universe, the faster they multiply and clarify. I’d call that abundantly blessed.
And I more than count myself abundantly blessed for the honor of visiting you each week through this newsletter. Every one of you is dear to me and I don’t take your trust and friendship for granted.
But after seven years of writing my little newsletter, I’m getting the “nudge” from the Universe it’s time to flow in a different direction. So, it feels a bit odd to say this is my last official weekly newsletter you’ll get from me. I’ll occasionally email if I’m offering a retreat or class or something I find particularly inspirational, but otherwise I’ll be using my personal Facebook page to share my thoughts and musings. If interested, you can find all my newsletters on my Website Blog.
What will I be doing instead?
Well, I’ll continue to grow by applying my skills and efforts toward modalities I can use to help you that have tangible, repeatable results. Right now, I’m working on certification toward reflexology and energy polarity. But I’ve also got my eye on spinal flow technique. I’m forever amazed at the intelligence of the body and how it comes into balance when listened to.
My only last bit of advice is to allow yourself to be and feel everything you came here to experience. And never go against yourself no matter what and you’ll do just fine.
You always have my love and deep respect for your bravery and courage to live the authentic life you were built for. You are my blessing and my inspiration. Many hugs and Happy Thanksgiving.
And as always, I’m available for individual sessions. All sessions include deep energy support and loving intuitive guidance to heal emotional/physical pain and confusion so you can live your best life. Click here to schedule.
