1.  Understand How People, Events and Activities Influences YOU Energetically

Everything we do and everyone we interact with has an energy signature. There are three ways we respond to the energy of the people, events and activities in our life. 

Usually we are neutral energetically to most activities, circumstances and people so doing something or hanging out with someone often do not change our vibration much either way. 

We are negatively impacted by those activities, circumstances and people that either lower our personal energy level or drain us energetically or contract and close down our heart. Often we feel that time slows down. 

We are positively impacted by those activities, circumstances and people that raise our personal energy, increase our vitality and expand our heart. Often we feel that time speeds up and we may even lose track of time altogether.

2.  Let YOUR Feelings Become YOUR GPS

Now that you understand the three ways you are influenced energetically, it is time to get more in tune with your feelings. Ask yourself often throughout the day -How do I feel?

If you feel really good, then you are moving in the right direction but if you feel really bad you need to reset the energy of your day. The easiest way for me to do this is to go to the beach but often taking a five minute walk outdoors can help as well. 

As you begin to become more aware of your feelings, you usually will find yourself making different choices. You begin doing more of the things that feel good and less of the things that feel bad.

3.  Be True to YOU
As you begin to become more attuned to how you feel, you often will find that you feel well when you do things that are authentic and aligned with your heart and soul and to feel less well when you do things that are not authentic and that are more aligned with your mind and personality self. 

We all begin life by being true to ourselves but over time we find that if we modify our behavior we can make our parents happier or our friends and partners will like us more or our boss will give you a raise. Ultimately we pay a big price for not being authentic and true to ourselves because every time we do this, we give away our power to other people and deplete us energetically and then you come to people like me to try to fix your life.

4.  Does This Help Me to Love, Trust and Accept Myself More?

The best way to begin living a more authentic life and being true to you is to focus on loving, trusting, accepting and forgiving yourself. Your outer world is created from within. Every area of your life that causes you pain mirrors back to you something deep within yourself that is coming up to be cleared, healed and released. 

One of the most effective ways to heal yourself and enhance the quality of your life is each day to love, trust, accept and forgive yourself more than the day before. A good way to start this process is to ask often throughout the day: Does doing this help me to love, trust and accept myself more? If it does, do it and if it does not, find out what does and do that instead.

5.  YOUR Life is YOUR Path

As you make loving, trusting and accepting yourself your top priority in life, you begin to realize that your soul attracts into your life, everything that you need to heal yourself and to grow spiritually. No one is more aware of your top priority healing needs than your soul and it is a master of rearranging your life to bring whatever you need to you in the most perfect possible way. 

Most people begin their spiritual path by looking outside of themselves for insight, wisdom and guidance but at some point most of us have to create our own path to the top of the mountain. We can only walk in the footprints of others for only so long before the pain and discomfort force us to march to our inner drummer.
