Intuitive Thoughts from Teresa

The hummingbirds have migrated. The nighttime snacking excursions from our neighborhood bear are no more, and the leaves are already starting to change.

As fall and winter approach, CHANGE reverberates all around us.

I wanted to share with you some of the current and upcoming changes occurring within my practice.

My Boulder office mate, Michelle Hartman( www.wellnesscoach4u.com) and I   proudly  announce the opening of The Gathering Place at Marine Street. Michelle and I are so excited to be cultivating a place for gathering community within our office setting.New Teaching Space

For those of you already familiar with our office, this new teaching space occupies the large room adjacent to ours.

Some of our visions for this space include:

  • Renting it out as teaching space for both local and national teachers;
  • Hosting movies nights;
  • Showcasing local artists- as a mini gallery space; and
  • To increase the class offerings from both our practices.

Current artists whose work we are delighted to host are:

  • Sally Ekert, visionary artist, http://www.sallytone.com/
  • Jeanne Gray quilter extraordinaire.
  • Deb Steinmannn’s stunning beeswax etching/paintings

In November I will be launching 2 NEW product lines. Watch for the 5-part Communicating with Your Unborn Child podcast series and The New Weekly Intuitive Mediations pod casts monthly subscriptions.

For any pre launch purchases email me at Teresa@LivingIntuitive.com

Also, in November, I will be transitioning to a different server for uploading sessions. So, if you are a client, and currently have a session that you would like to download, yet you haven’t gotten to it yet; Now is a great time to cross that off your list.

I’ve made another new blog posting at http://livingintuitive.wordpress.com/. My intention for the blog is to post whenever I am noticing waves of challenges and growth and share that with you.

Living Intuitive Observations

It is All About Boundaries?

This past month, both our office space and my vision for my life’s work grew and expanded. Along side all the excitement of visioning and creating, the need to attend to boundaries came into sharp focus. With each new interaction that has called out for a boundary, I have enjoyed it all more, as I attended to the boundary from a place of responding and not reacting.

As a result, my relationship and belief about what boundaries are have shifted and grown.

My favorite new action is to respond with “I will think about that and get back to you”. Instead of reacting and giving an immediate answer, I have become skilled and comfortable with sitting with all parts of the equation, often overnight, and then responding with an answer that includes my needs.  The elegance of this approach decreases drama while increasing the simplicity of the final plan or decision.

I have come to love boundaries. Not setting them – which has a rigid connotation, but co-creating them.

Creating a boundary is not blazing a line in the sand, but crafting a container.

So as clarity, consciousness, and stated agreements all come together they generate a boundary. Boundaries are the foundation of authentic FREEDOM.

Art PieceIn the past, as a woman, RN, and healer, I have been conditioned in fear to just acquiesce and take the easiest route. This involved reacting to a request in the desire to cross it off my list and to move on to the next one.

This pattern did not always serve me.

What has changed for me now as I have learned to joyfully craft Boundaries is:

  1. I can take the time to figure it out- faster is not better;
  2. I can resource and ask for assistance- I don’t have to figure this all out myself;
  3. Curiosity does not kill the cat–assumptions do. So I can ask for more information or clarification;

And I am certain that as time moves this list will grow.

I believe that boundaries are an issue with which most women struggle, often on a daily basis.

The act of creating a boundary requires having a strong sense of self and personal power, along with a good sense of humor.

Observing someone’s aura reveals to me that person’s boundary issues and patterns. Our aura is the outer layer of our energy body. I like to refer to it as the skin of our energy body.

A classic women’s aura is tight up front and wide open in the back door.  So if someone ever really wants something from her, they approach via the back door, often wielding the emotional extraction tool of guilt.

In the following mediation section, I will review some exercises to support you in co creating and maintaining healthy boundaries for yourself.

Enjoy!

 

Living Intuitive Meditation Tool

Aura Exercise

Begin by grounding your body

As you inhale, imagine from the soles of your feet, energy from any where in the earth which meets your needs in this moment flowing into your feet and up your legs. When it arrives to the base of your spine (first chakra) imagine it flowing to the absolute center of this area.

From the center of this chakra imagine a connecting structure stretching as wide as your body a connection from the base of your spine. Imagine it leaving your body and connecting to the center of the earth. This structure can be a tree trunk, a slide, a waterfall, an anchor, a zebra’s tale.

Exhale.

Become aware of how your body and total self feel.

Now imagine a magnet on the top of your head.

Call back all of your energy from the past and the future.

Allow all of that energy to flow into brain, down your center and to the base of your spine, meeting with your grounding cord.

Imagine that energy of you flowing through each cell of your body, repairing and strengthening your cells boundaries/walls.

Imagine that energy filling out to 2-4 feet outside of you to creating a boundary around you with you in the center.

SO your grounding cord is your foundation and the aura is like a pup tent from the foundation.

Many of us keep our back of our aura open to be able to feel and to perceive what is coming our way. This is really common with anyone who has had any kind of trauma history.

If this is you I would suggest this. As you construct your boundary, imagine any perception devices you may desire to use on the outside of the boundary. (such as a seeing eye, antenna, etc.)

This device can discern for you when you need to be alert to something or somebody, thus allowing you to keep your skin or boundary intact.

Take another deep breath and feel how it feels to be in the center of your space with yourself.

Honoring Your Child’s Spirit: Pre-birth Bonding and Communication

by Flo Aeveia Magdelena

Check out the contributing chapter written by Teresa!

Living Our Potential as Beings of Light

The family system is our first and most intimate experience of the world. It is where we learn about love, sharing, generosity, co-creation, and honoring—or about hate, reaction, fear, anger, and separation. The family may be a spiritual haven and a loving place of growth or a place of absent presence, where we physically live together but do not connect. We either make this connection and create a foundation in our childhood or spend our lives looking for it.

When parents establish a conscious heart/soul connection with their children and with each other, deeper levels of trust and safety are experienced. As we deepen our bonds, we are more sensitive to the subtle, nonverbal communication which we exchange at all times with all living organisms. Relationships are not bound by normal restrictions because the information sent via channels of sensory response are unaffected by language, beliefs, or convention. You are connected beyond earthly rules, and can therefore create a unique relationship that works for your family.
