The Gift of Feeling...


By Andrea Hanson, CEHP, Energy Therapist

Thinking, rationalizing, measuring, manipulating, figuring....all functions of the left hemisphere and gifts of the rational mind, necessary and useful...in certain times. However, when it comes to affairs of the heart and soul, the rational mind pales to intuition and imagination.

We cannot think our way through life choices that involve others. We must feel what is necessary first and then take action based on heart- and soul-felt information. Then the rational mind may implement our decisions.

Weighing the pros and cons of a situation is usually fruitless unless it is put in terms of feelings. Have you ever really made a decision based on a pro and con list? If we weigh our possible choices rationally against outside influences, it becomes a hopeless, unending list of possible scenarios.

If we create a clear image of the desired outcome, we are more in touch with our desired inner reality and more able to move towards it. Feel, feel, feel to deal with challenges and desires. Be clear, detailed, and then let it go and allow it to materialize. Leave the thinking for To Do lists, calculating finances, reading and arranging things.
