Hello Reader,

With Trump claiming US negotiations with Iran, and Tehran denying such talks, I'm sure many of you are wondering what on earth you can trust these days? With fake news and AI generated content becoming more and more prevalent it has long since occurred to me that most things need to be questioned.

Thankfully there is something that can be trusted. 100% of the time. And it isn't world leaders, the BBC, your doctor or your dearest spiritual guru or friend. And definitely not me!

It's You.

And when I say you, I don't mean the chatty inner narrator that has an opinion about everything. I mean what's before all thought...that which is aware of, or knows, of all thoughts, all feelings, all objects.

I liken it to a TV. There is the content on the TV screen - the movie, series, documentary or comedy that is playing on the screen which changes all the time (much like the thoughts, feelings, emotions and objects in our lives). And there is the screen itself; always there, never changing but allows whatever programme you put on it to be seen.

Without the screen, no programme could be watched.

Without You (that which is aware or that which knows), nothing in life could be known, including thoughts, feelings and objects (including your body) of the world.

So You = knowing.

Or put simply, You Know.

And then thought comes along and tells you that you don't know, that you are wrong, that you don't understand, or that you have more to get; that you know nothing and other people know more than you, and other such stories, that you believe.

It's so innocent. It's what we've been taught - that other people have the answers or that we're not enough.

But it isn't true.

As I encourage in my Intuition Experiment, notice what you know, want or desire right now...

Then notice how thought tells you something else.

Finally, pay attention to what you follow - the knowing or the conditioned, habitual thinking. Generally it's the latter and it takes some time to tune into, and follow, what's actually known, here and now.

If there is anything the current world situation teaches anyone, my hope is that it calls people back to what they know, directly, not second-hand or third-hand, but right here and now. Because right here and now is all there is.

Where is Trump right now in your direct experience? Where is war right now, in your direct experience? Where is 'the future' right here and now, in direct experience?

None of those things are here in direct experience - they are here in thoughts alone. And those thoughts divide. They make us mistrustful, fearful, insecure and uneasy. And from that place our actions flow. Notice how you behave when you believe those thoughts.

Now come back to here and now. Look around you and notice what is actually real; what is actually known 'first hand'.

Whenever I do this there is a sense of relief. There is nothing 'wrong' right here and now and, as I always say, if there is, then there will be actions happening to do something about that.

So as far as it looks to me, and of course, don't believe me and look for yourself, all you can really know for sure, is what is right here in front of you.

And from there, you know what small step to take. Trust that. Don't let thought way-lay you. And if you want support in living that way, consider joining my Intuition Experiment Community.

Conversation with Tania Elfersy around menopause, headaches & sleep

Last week I received an email from Tania about the latest suggestions from HRT influencers about using vaginal oestrogen cream as an anti-aging face cream (read her blog for more on that crazy suggestion and better still get on her mailing list to hear the latest).

After reading the email, I reached out to Tania with a few questions on my mind around HRT, my seemingly worsening headaches and disturbed sleep that I'd been putting down to changing hormones.

We decided to record the conversation in case it was useful for others. If you'd like to listen to that you can do so by clicking the box below where you'll be taken to my YouTube channel:

Ways To Work With Me

The Intuition Experiment Community

This is my new supportive monthly membership that you can join and leave at any time, to explore living more from intuition (or 'true self') than from conditioned, habitual thoughts. It's where I'm most active in supporting individuals to live a free-er life outside of my 1:1 work. If you find yourself wanting to live life differently, then join this lovely small community to transition to a new paradigm. One where more ease and flow is available, more of the time. Full details here.

1:1 Coaching/Mentoring

I have space for a couple of people in my 1:1 work. If you'd like more personalised support to live a life of freedom then book a free exploratory call to see if we might be a good fit to work together. The call itself may be enough to move you forward...

Until next time, happy exploring,

Vicki
