let's begin......
We have many levels of awareness. As we make the conscious choice of living our lives from a good feeling place, we discover a depth to ourselves that we were not aware of previously. We pull away the layers. Some say like an onion. Sometimes, I like to envision the thousand petal lotus. Each petal representing a level of knowing. No particular rhyme or reason to which one comes along first or next but a gentle opening or unfolding. Each with its own fragrance and texture.

For me, this was such a turning point. To understand that feelings were the way that Source/my Inner Being was communicating with me was something I had never heard before. I come from a family that was all about not showing emotion. Emotions were a sign of weakness and so on and so on. Somehow it made sense though. Why else would God have given us something that we wouldn't have a use for.
Emotions=Communication. It is how Spirit gets our attention. Makes complete sense. Once I started playing with this concept, my life changed. How the heck did I miss that one? Sometimes it gets tricky when I have a knee jerk response to something that I am not really wanting. But with some practice I have found that my feelings don't let me down. The more sensitive I get to how I feel, the better I feel in general. The better I feel the more I find my life experience bringing to me all the things I could ever hope for. Sure I still have some resistant or limiting thoughts that I want to turn around but cleaning up my emotional vibration has made all the difference
