Most processes include a clearing statement, which usually starts with reference to

Divine Intelligence. What I mean by this is Higher Wisdom, Divinity, Source, Soul, or

anything that you associate with our soulful nature. If you are uncomfortable with any

particular words in the processes, feel free to use your own.

At the end of each clearing statement, I ask you to repeat the word “CLEAR” to

release and purify any stuck energy. In the English language,
clear
also relates to
clarity
.

So the idea is to release stuckness and create clarity. For best results, it is important that

you repeat the word “CLEAR” several times, which can take between thirty seconds to

a minute. Think of this as vacuum cleaning your internal house. In other languages, it is

important to find an appropriate word or words that reflect this intention.

Feel free to also make up your own clearing word. If you do, make sure the word is

positive and makes you feel good when repeating it. In certain processes, I have used

the words
peace
,
light
, or
surrender
. The most important thing is that you feel comfort-

able and can relax fully while doing the process.

How Do I Know that the Process Is Working?

When you let go of stagnation, your body might give you one of the following signs

that things are releasing: tingling, yawning, slight ache, increased tension; feeling

relieved, coldness, heat, more awareness of the body; having important insights; cough-

ing; thirst; sleepiness; hunger; feeling more irritated, peaceful; feeling heavier or lighter;

seeing colors or bright rays; feeling warmth like a ray of sunshine; smelling a perfume;

itching; sneezing; shaking; feeling dizziness, emptiness, and so forth.

Your body may also find its own unique way to give you a message that a release is

occurring. You will recognize what it is when you slow down and pay attention. If you

have never done any kind of healing work before, it might take you some time to

release any numbness or protective barriers that you may have built up before you feel

things strongly. Please be persistent and patient with yourself.

If you do the deep work required, you will experience a huge leap in your life

wellness.

How You Can

Strengthen Your Intuition

I have heard a lot about intuition and that everybody has it.

How can I strengthen my intuition and understand the difference between

my intuition and my general thoughts?

Intuition can be your guiding mechanism, your connection to the invisible, subtle,

and Divine realms of existence. To be intuitive means to be able to tune in to your

body, soul, or Higher Self for spiritual guidance, to decipher the messages you receive

and make empowering choices. Intuitive insights can come to you when you are awake,

meditating, dreaming, taking a shower, exercising, connecting to your body, or just

relaxing. While you may be more likely to access your intuition when you are in a medi -

tative state, it can arise at any point, including a time of crisis.

Mona Lisa Schulz, in her book
Awakening Intuition
, writes, “Intuition is an internal

form of perception of things that are not directly in front of us in the world. It’s an

inner sight, a form of hearing, body sense, and emotion. It’s actually common to all the

other senses and an enhancement of them. What differentiates intuition from other

senses is the unique form of expression it takes in each individual.”1

The Difference between Regular Thought and Intuition

The difference between regular thoughts and intuition is the quality of information you

receive. Thoughts come and go while intuition is often a persistent feeling. Thoughts are

changeable; intuition is more profound and feels like an inner knowing. Thoughts

are often based on linear thinking; intuition is spontaneous and natural. Thoughts are fleet-

ing, but intuition is often accompanied by bodily sensations and unexplained occurrences.

Your intuition will not necessarily give you the message you want to receive. This is

one of the reasons you may tend to ignore it.

Intuition develops when you are willing to pay attention to your feelings and follow

your hunches. Like exercising a muscle, the more you use your intuition, the more confi-

dence you instill in yourself and the stronger your instincts become. The greatest power of

intuitive insights is their ability to change the course of your actions and hence your life.

Your intuition awakens when you allow yourself to embrace your sensitivity, feel

your emotions, and connect with nature. As you relax and allow yourself to get in touch

with your body, you start to see the world around and within you from a different

perspective. You begin to pay attention to messages from your body as well as the intel-

ligence of the universe and your soul. Intuition increases when you let go of your

protective barriers and are willing to open to the hidden world of wonders, where any-

thing is possible. This is a timeless realm of guides and angelic helpers where things can

transform instantly. In this nonlinear reality of Divine possibilities, nothing is bound by

the rules of time, space, and gravity.

How to Recognize Intuition

Whenever I have inquired from my workshop participants how they recognize an intu-

itive insight, most have said, they experience a feeling of certainty, a knowing which is

often sudden, emotional, and not necessarily based on logic or prior knowledge of the

details involved. They may receive an unexpected understanding, a vision, the cause of a

particular issue, or the answer of what they have to do. Some also talk of tingling sensa-

tions, feeling changes in temperature, smelling scents, or experiencing a particular taste

in their mouth. Others hear sounds, receive guidance through universal signs, or use

cards, channeling, astrology, numerology, dreams, and other methods. Everyone is dif-

ferent and receives information in their unique way.

Your intuition becomes your compass, a navigating device that assists you to be

flexible, adjusting your course based on internal wisdom as well as the external circum-

stances of your life. While I encourage you to hone your intuition throughout this

book, I also believe that you need to use your intelligence, especially while making

important decisions.

Most people have experienced intuitive guidance in their lives, which might have

led them to a place where they needed to be, knowing that someone they care about is

in trouble and needs help, sensing that someone they are close to is about to pass away,

or certainty they would get the job they wanted before even applying. One of the great-

est challenges people experience with intuition is to accurately interpret the

information they receive.

Your Body Is Constantly Giving You Messages

In my bestselling book,
The Secret Language of Your Body
, I explore how your body intu-

itively communicates to you through sensations, physical pain, emotions, specific

thought patterns, memories, symbols, colors, visions, tastes, smells, sounds, movements,

and dreams.

Your body is constantly giving you messages about what is and is not working in

your life. I have had countless friends and clients who were stuck in a difficult relation-

ship and have developed serious neck problems. Even though I would tune in to their

bodies and share that it appeared that there were unresolved issues in a past or a present

relationship affecting their neck, they would grit their teeth and tell me that all was

well. Of course, as the pain became unbearable and no amount of chiropractic care

helped, some were willing to start listening to their bodies, work on their emotional

issues, and start making life changes. There is no wonder that we have a famous saying

in English that a person is a “pain in the neck.” This intuitive insight has become part

of our cultural way of expressing ourselves when we are having an issue with a

particular person.

Intuitive Methods of Diagnosing Illness

There are many intuitive diagnostic methods. Some people can see images and cellular

memories inside a person’s body, tune in to energy centers or feel other people’s emo-

tions and pain. There are various muscle testing techniques that can test physical,

mental, energetic, and emotional issues.

I have met several art therapists and doctors who can pinpoint illnesses people have

by asking patients to draw how they see themselves and how they feel about their life.
