How often do you rely on intuition?

I think I understand, maybe you have what I have sometimes, when my own feeling (such as fear) get in the way of me truly "hearing" my intuition, then it will come later when everything has cooled down. I'm sorry you have had those traumas. Hope for better times :)

Thanks

I do wonder if that intuitive drive towards trauma has assisted me to end my cycles of trauma bonding though, so in some way it was in my favour because I never want to go through it again if I can help it and hopefully I am much clearer with my intentions, intuition might be more linked into a new level of experience for me now.


It's challenge for people with CPTSD because impulse can feel like intuition.
It is quite a practice to slow everything down, stabilise emotional responses enough to get a true gauge on the voice of the soul.

In my experience, anything that gets near your emotional triggers will blot out your intuition, so anything that touches on your CPTSD essentially silences your intuition. And clearing that sort of thing can be very difficult. My own methods aren't that great for that level of trauma. It's simply too painful. But trauma like that can be released, and tools to help you do exist. I would suggest not doing it alone however. Having someone you trust "hold the field" for you is a HUGE help. I mean it. You may not think you can do it, but having someone "hold the field" can make the impossible possible.

Hi Justin Passing.
I agree, if it is even touching on trauma, I tend to leave it alone as much as I am capable of now days. Intuition must come through the silence and perhaps it feels more like peaceful awareness. I have had to train myself to temper my excitability and anxiety before making decisions.

I have done a lot of releasing work for many years, it seems that my maintenance is now to walk new paths of experience to heal.

So rather then going over a trauma to "solve" it, creating entirely new pathways of awareness directed towards integrity and honesty which are not often trademarks in abusive situations.

A mentor would probably be my best bet, someone who knows my deeper goals and who keeps me emotionally sober and on track, just to keep an eye on how and where I am travelling, and to pull me back onto my path, or create a soft landing when I am loosing focus

One thing I’ve found RedEmbers is that once you reach that ability to change the channel out of old process, you do have to have a focused intent differently. Not falling back into old patterns means you have to stay on track for new creations.

We are co creators so naturally being reminded “your not that old person you once were” targets focus and abilities differently. You take back your power (empowerment) to create the world your now able too. X

That sounds amazing

I was thinking about this today, my inner voice "keep moving forward".

Intuition, it seems, is not stuck, driving in the past.

Woo hoo!

Once you gain that awareness your moving forward, not stuck and you know you’ve done a great amount of internal work on yourself, there is no reason to believe otherwise..

Threads are pesky, threads of doubt, old threads leading you into troubled waters.. but even they make you check in, see for yourself more clear, then you know why previously you couldn’t, weren’t aware, weren’t able to see .. until you saw you were in it.

But that landing in it, seeing it occur gives you a beautiful advantage..

quiet often now days, as I can actually understand it a lot better. Paying attention to synchronicities and thoughts and conversations you have with yourself are an important part of it, for me anyway.
