-
Am I using my energy to respond to situations as they unfold, or do I feel pressured to control outcomes in advance? Embracing spontaneous action keeps you aligned with the channel’s gift of acting powerfully in the present moment.
-
Do I feel connected to my purpose, or do I find myself drained by commitments that don’t resonate with me? Ensuring your energy is invested in meaningful pursuits helps you sustain your power and avoid burnout.
-
Am I attuned to my body’s signals, or do I ignore my intuitive awareness in favor of external expectations? Listening to your body’s cues strengthens your ability to act swiftly and accurately in alignment with your inner guidance.
