Once you make a decision, are you satisfied with the outcome? Or are you like me: sometimes my choice is crystal clear, and other times my choices get eroded by hesitancy and fear. I begin to second-guess Should I? Shouldn’t I? Is this the right decision?…Frankly, it’s exhausting.

We would all like to be clear decision-makers, but the truth is, we are human. Sometimes we make mistakes.

Remember the old joke: What do you get when you play a country song backward? You get your love, your car and your job back.

In my worst back-and-forth moments, my mind taunts me: I had it so great! I want my old life back. Yet when I consider going back, my heart and body scream NO WAY.

Being reflective is important. Learning from our choices is healthy. In contrast, always looking back and wishing for people, places and things to be the way they were is simply not healthy.

In the face of change and total upheaval, all we can do is give ourselves some love, trust our hearts, and listen to our intuition.

That’s where our power lives — our power is inside us. We claim our power by trusting in ourselves — instead of looking outside of ourselves for answers.

In your body and soul, what is nudging you to change?

How are you being called to be the person you always knew you that you could — and can! — be?

Here’s a daily exercise to build the muscle-memory of your creative intuition, to grow your body-truth, which will develop your ability to trust your Heart and embrace joy!
