Are You Making Decisions With Your Head or Higher Guidance?

Sandy was at a crossroads in her life.

She was trying to make a decision about what to do next. She felt the mounting pressure of discomfort and discontent in her body much of the time. When she thought about making a change, she grew anxious and uneasy.

She just wanted things to be different, yet she was scared. She wanted to make sure she was making the right decision. She was terrified of making a mistake.

Back and forth she went in her mind about the decision. She thought about things she had done in the past. She thought about her future. She felt caught up in the emotions, unsure what to do.

By the time she came to me, she asked, how can I know if a decision is right for me?

Here are some tips to help you access Higher Guidance for decision making:

Ask your Angels to assist you in making the decision. Request they send clear signals of which choice would be optimal for you. Then, go for a walk, a nap or engage your brain in an activity. Let go of having to know the answer. Instead imagine feeling the relief as if you already knew the answer that was right for you.

Feel into the possibility of each option. Notice if you feel an expansiveness or constriction in your body. If you have an overriding feeling of excitement and expansiveness, yet feel some fear or nervousness, know this is normal and doesn’t negate the option. It is an indication the option will likely move you out of your comfort zone. This is a sign of growth.

If you find yourself thinking about the past or worrying about the future, know that you can bring yourself back to the present moment by being aware of your body. Wiggle your toes, slow your breathing down, roll your shoulders back and down away from your ears. You need to be in touch with the present moment to access your Higher Guidance. Bring your attention to your heart chakra in the center of your chest, where you connect with your Creator. Allow your connection to the Divine inform your decision.
