I Think In The Western World We

The Mind Is The Enemy Of Intuition, According To Many New Age Adherents, But I Don't Buy That. I Look At Everything In Terms Of Polarities - Two Ends Of The Same Continuum. Young/old, Male/female, Individuality/conformity, Work/play, Freedom/constraint, Right/left, Day/night, Life/death, Rational/emotional, And So On.

The Way To A Beautiful, Strong, Healthy Body Is To Start By Trusting Yourself Right Now. Let Go Of The Struggle And Surrender To Your Body's Needs. Your Intuition Will Tell You What To Eat. It May Direct You To Exercise Vigorously, In Which Case You'll Enjoy It, Or It May Tell You To Slow Down And Rest. It May Tell You To Stay In Bed All Day, Or It May Tell You To Get Up Early. There Are No Rigid Rules. Your Body Knows Perfectly Well What's Good For It.

What I Am Actually Saying Is That We Need To Be Willing To Let Our Intuition Guide Us, And Then Be Willing To Follow That Guidance Directly And Fearlessly.

Assertiveness Is Not What You Do, It's Who You Are!

We All Have Within Us A Deep Sense Of What We Need, And What Is Right And True For Us. To Access This We Need To Pay Attention To Our Feelings And Our Intuition. We Need To Learn To Listen Deeply To Ourselves And To Trust What We Hear. And We Need To Risk Acting On What We Feel To Be True. Even If We Make Mistakes, We Must Do This In Order To Learn And Grow.
