I emailed you a free copy of our eBook.

Regarding your brother’s comment…I encourage you to consider what others perceive, but always reference your own rational mind and inner wisdom. My experience is that I have a strong connection with some people, while I don’t feel as much simpatico with others. Rather than focusing on “blocks,” I like to just place my intention/attention on what I want. Sure, there’s a time to “work on stuff” like blocks, but it’s kind of hard to drive by looking in the rearview mirror.

1.) Being able to blend with person (or place or thing or idea) and share the experience of the other. More “other oriented.”

2.) Being able to clearly know your boundaries and be in your own energy. More “self oriented.”

I feel having a CHOICE is important. Personally, I want to consciously be able to connect and ALSO consciously be able to separate. I use my intention to focus my attention. “Where attention goes, energy flows.”

What I don’t want is for my energy to blend with people, places, things, and ideas in an unconscious way that isn’t good/healthy for me and others. Yes, again, at the highest levels of experience, we are one. But I don’t need to run EVERYTHING through my body, mind, and emotions. I have boundaries. I know the who, why, how, what, where, and when of MY life. My self.  I know where I stop. I can ground. From that centered place, I can consciously use my intention to direct my attention and include into my experience many dimensions beyond my individual self.

I feel our “Developing Your Intuition” eBook would be really helpful for you. If you don’t want to subscribe to our ezine, just contact us and we’ll send you a free copy.

Hope this helps. The difference that will make is a difference is your on-going PRACTICE. What I’m describing above are techniques and skills. They take much practice over many years, and few master these realms.

Certainly:

1.) You can receive messages from the dream state;
2.) You asked a question and then received an answer;
3.) Your desire for your lover to return can influence/distort the information you receive.

So, I’m not telling you anything you don’t know!

Often, the inner processes that we’re labeling as intuition are very subtle. We can learn to make fine distinctions that help us discern the source of the information we receive. Eventually, with much practice/play we can build trust — an inner sense of “knowing” what’s authentic (and what’s not).

@Deborah, I appreciate your comments. Many of us expect easy forgiveness from others, but do not ourselves extend forgiveness so easily. Fortunately, we can learn to attune mind to heart and gracefully “give what we need.”
