Igniting the Flame of Intuition

Inspiration begins with noticing the breath. The first inhale, or inspiration, is the igniting spark of the flame of intuition. Whether it’s taking a walk to clear your mind or stopping whatever task is at hand to sit with how you feel within, it doesn’t matter as long as you first recognize that feeling. Then, feel the internal intuitive tug and act on it. Big or small is not what matters. It is the simple act of acting on the spark that provides the fuel of the breath to the flame, causing it to spread and ignite more and more.

Like the simple spark from a single match that sets an entire forest ablaze, your inspired actions set you on your path of freedom—of knowing more. You may not be aware of what the outcome is, just as the match doesn’t know the flame it may spark. However, the very act of following the nudge, the internal guidance, will give you another and another inspired thought to act upon. It is not a test; rather, it is a clue that leads you closer to your desired path, guiding you to your personal nirvana.

The very feeling of satisfaction or giddiness that may not be tied to any particular step is the recognition of following your unique path of guidance. That is the flow—the letting go and the guidance. The release, so often mentioned, is about following the tiniest sparks that lead to the inferno of bliss that lights your world, your passion, and your self.

Flow with the lead of your knowing, to the exclusion of what others’ nudges are. They are feeling for themselves, and each is unique. No one path is wrong; there are endless IF and THEN possibilities along the paths, all leading to the same unending reservoir. Enjoy the possibilities, knowing there is always a path or route out and to more. Never the need to retrace your steps ; keep following the inspired steps to open the doors to all.
