People say “Trust your gut” all the time, but there is a funny little truth about that concept.


Trust does NOT live in your gut. It doesn’t thrive in just one place in your body or soul.


Trust is about your full connection to The Universe. Have your mind, body, and soul in alignment.


The more aligned and connected you are, the better you are at TRUSTING and knowing the TRUTH.

“Trust your gut” is a blanket statement that really encompasses your ability to harness the energetic frequency field of The Universe (or God, Goddess, Source, whatever you prefer) to KNOW.


KNOW:

  • The right people to trust

  • Good investments to make

  • Where the best offer is

If you are looking for answers and feel something in your physical gut. Time to check in with your mind, body, and soul.


It takes all that you BE to allow in this depth of KNOWING.


When you were born, you came in fully trusting that The Universe would provide the next thing you needed. Food.


Watch babies root. They just do it. They just KNOW.


Throughout life, we are taken away from knowing. Which takes us away from trust. Both in ourselves and The Universe.


Most people don’t mean to take trust away from someone. It happens as well-meaning adults and caregivers start teaching children based on their OWN stuff all that they learned in life and were taught by the adults around them. Think of age-old things like, “Money doesn’t grow on trees.” “Don’t play with kids that come from the other side of town.” “There never is a free lunch.”


Heavy stuff for sure.


As kids grow, they learn not to TRUST themselves. They get so many mixed signals between the adults’ messages and their own thoughts “But that kid is really nice! I’d love to play with him.” “The neighbours always give me lunch.” etc. and then stop trusting themselves.


The easiest way to know how to “trust your gut” is to come back to you. Your eternal connection with The Universe.


Return to your birth settings, which naturally are your mind, body, and soul as one with The Universe.


The journey to your birth setting does not have to belong and be arduous. There is no need to go through a “dark night of the soul.”


Processing the past can be very beneficial for certain sought outcomes. But not for this one.


Begin with KNOWING you constantly have The Universe moving to and through you.


YOU ARE THE UNIVERSE IN HUMAN FORM.


Claim this as your birthright. Use whatever method you need to (journal, chant, affirmations, etc.


Add energetic work to the mix. This bypasses all mind and ego crud to go straight to the source of frequency to connect to frequency. Remember old TV cables? When you got a DVD player or gaming system, you had to find the cables that fit in different connectors to get everything ONLINE? It's like THAT. THAT is alignment.


My favourite form is Universe Song (it’s how Light Language moves to and through me). The Universe uses the vibration from my singing vocal cords to touch people EXACTLY where their body needs to shift. Giving it the most glorious vibrational massage to allow that shift to happen.


Use your favourite form. It could be Reiki, yoga, etc.


Finally, OPEN and ALLOW. This is where you get to practice feeling The Universe moving to and through you.


Not simply tuning in when you need the answer to a question.


Have FUN with this part. Keep track of your thoughts, feelings, and TRUTHS in your journal. You can look back and see how life played out and that you were spot on!. This allows your ego mind to TRUST you and TRUST The Universe.


This TRUST then replaces attempting to trust your gut. You simply KNOW.
