Your Emotional Guidance System

"Place yourself in the middle of the stream of power and wisdom which flows into your life. Then, without effort, you are impelled to truth and to perfect contentment." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Emotions 'R' Us. The first thing to understand about your Emotional Guidance System is that it is your friend, your guide. The purpose of your Emotional Guidance System is to let you know when you're in the process of attracting and creating what you do want and when you're in the process of attracting and creating what you do not want. It gives you important information similar to the feedback you get when you touch a hot stove. Although we appreciate the warning from a hot stove, most of us have been trained to undervalue the information we receive from our emotions.

If, like me, your habit has been to trust your thoughts and push down your feelings, this new concept will be revolutionary. It may help you to begin to trust and value your emotions by recognizing that your feelings are actually guidance from your Inner Being. The purpose of emotion is to give you feedback about the vibrational content of your thoughts. This is crucial information because the vibrational content of your thoughts determines what you are attracting and creating. Your Emotional Guidance System is not trying to torture you. It's offering you essential data about what you're ordering from the Cosmic Café. Where is your current vibration on the Emotional Guidance Scale? Where is your dominant vibration on the Emotional Guidance Scale?

Emotional Guidance Scale (from the book, Ask and It Is Given)

Joy / Knowledge / Empowerment / Freedom / Love / Appreciation

Enthusiasm / Eagerness / Happiness

Here's how the Emotional Guidance System works: If you're feeling an emotion that's closer to the bottom of the scale - such as Fear or Depression - you're offering Feel Bad Thoughts which are restricting your Life Force Energy and your access to Well-Being. If you're feeling an emotion at the top of the scale - such as Joy and Empowerment - you're offering Feel Good Thoughts that connect you to Source Energy so that Well-Being pumps steadily through you. It really is that simple to determine whether your thoughts are serving you well or not.

Trust Your Feelings. We feel Energy and this vibrational guidance can serve us well. That first impression we get when we meet someone comes from our vibrations, our Emotional Guidance System. You may recall looking back on a failed relationship or business deal and remembering that there was something that just didn't feel right. As we tune in to our Emotional Guidance System and begin to trust its unfailing accuracy, we spend less time going down roads that lead to dead ends and more time scaling the mountains of our most deeply cherished desires.

Use your Emotional Guidance System to know what's right for you rather than listening to the advice or criticism of others. Trust that you have a source of unfailing guidance within you at all times and live in accordance with this inner wisdom. Be deeply convinced that an inner knowing is always available to you. When you utilize your Emotional Guidance System and listen to your true voice, you truly can create the life of your dreams.
