Harnessing Instincts for your new NOW requires trust.
Welcome to another transformative blog dedicated to helping you cultivate present-moment NOW- awareness so that you know when and how to embrace the power of your instincts. Living in the NOW allows you to fully experience life, savoring each moment as it unfolds. By developing a strong sense of personal instincts, you can heighten your awareness and truly embrace the NOW. Let’s explore how your instincts play a vital role in keeping you focused, validated, and mindful. Let’s retreat within with practical techniques to cultivate self-trust and confidence. By embracing the loving kindness of self-validation and harnessing the wisdom of your instincts, you can pave the way for personal growth, create a life filled with authenticity, and navigate your new NOW with clarity and purpose.
Living in the NOW, being fully aware of the present moment while you are in it, is a self-care practice that goes beyond merely being physically present. It is about cultivating a deep sense of awareness and attunement to each moment-by-moment experience, allowing yourself to fully engage and immerse in the richness of each NOW. Instincts, often referred to as intuition, gut feelings, or hunches, play a
crucial role in supporting this practice of present NOW-moment awareness.
When you retreat within to feel your feelings and think about what you are thinking about, you acknowledge and honor the validity of your internal self-care experiences. It is a transformative practice that allows you to embrace your inner truth and live authentically. By accepting your thoughts, emotions, and instincts as valid and valuable, you empower yourself to make decisions that align with your true self.
Self-validation is not about seeking external validation or approval; it is about realizing, in the inner safety of your deepest self-inquiry state, that you can cultivate a deep sense of trust in your inner truth and begin to tap what you think and feel … your inner wisdom!
To cultivate self-care and true depths of self-inquiry, embrace the power of your instincts, and consider the following techniques to support your retreat within self-care growth:
Cultivate self-awareness: Start by developing a deep sense of self-awareness. Take time to reflect on your thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations throughout the day. Notice any patterns or recurring themes that emerge. Pay attention to your instincts and gut feelings, as they often hold valuable insights and guidance.
Practice mindfulness: Engage in mindfulness practices that help you anchor yourself in the present NOW. Whether it’s mindful breathing, meditation, or body scan exercises, these practices enhance your ability to tune into your instincts and heighten your awareness of the NOW.
Listen to your Physical Plane body: Your body is an incredible source of wisdom. Pay attention to physical sensations and cues that arise throughout the day. Notice any tension, discomfort, or ease in different situations. Your body’s response can provide valuable guidance and insights into what feels right or wrong for you.
Reflect on past experiences for wisdom. Take time to reflect on past experiences where you followed
your instincts and experienced positive outcomes. Recall moments when you trusted your inner voice and made conscious choices aligned with your true self. Let these reflections strengthen your trust in your instincts and motivate you to continue embracing present-moment awareness.
Surround yourself with supportive individuals: Surround yourself with people who validate and support your journey of self-discovery and self-validation. Seek out communities or individuals who encourage you to trust your instincts and live authentically. Their presence and support can greatly contribute to your self-validation process.
Remember, dear Champion Seeker, that embracing self-validation and harnessing the power of your
instincts is a new NOW journey—a continuous practice that requires patience, self-compassion, and self-reflection. By cultivating a strong sense of personal instincts and living in the perfect present moment, you empower yourself to make conscious choices that align with your true self.
