How to Do Your Own Intuitive Body Scan

September 7, 2012

Feeling stuck in the muck of heavy energy? Lost your flow and feeling dry in a seemingly everlasting ebb?  I know how ya feel, and here is what helped me get out!

I’ve been going on almost 10 days of stale energy.  This ebb seems to be an unusual SUPER EBB.  Normally, these energy ebbs come and go, and I am able to get a clear sense of the ways I can support myself through them (naps, exercise, breath work, doodling, more naps, and allowing the time to pass) and then gleefully slip back in to the flow of life and business.

Well, there are no more naps or meditation that I can throw on this SUPER EBB.  I did however take a few deep breaths and then listen.  It was then, that I heard my Inner Whisper say, “Body scan, Babe.  Get your pen and a pad, leave the technology inside, go out into the natural air, and I will guide you.”

So I did.

Here is what I came up with and I’m sharing this with you, well, frankly, because my Inner Whisper asked me to.  While it feels somewhat private, I’m happy to share because maybe you are feeling a thick heavy energy and have a desire to release this.

This short exercise allowed me to:

  • Receive a few short and important guidance suggestions from my Inner Whisper
  • Recognize blocks that were keeping me from moving forward
  • Clear those blocks and release the resistance that was weighing me down
  • Identify specific physical areas of my body to target my self care over the next few days
  • Write this post! I’d been feeling a creativity and writing block for these 10 days and the process of this post is FLOWING. I feel like me again.

I deeply believe we are ALL intuitive.  While I regularly see and feel energy and get “hits” on their meanings, it is only because I have practiced and tapped in for some time that allows me obvious and easy access to these “vibes.”

Using this exercise is a great way to show you that YOU and YOUR INNER WISDOM can be your best advisers at clearing your ebb and give you a chance to practice your own intuitive gifts.

Here is the process:

  • Since this is a listening and spirit exercise, remove all distractions and perhaps find a spot outside, near nature, or in your home that is clean and clutter free. Keep all technology- computers, mobile phones, even music out of this exercise.
  • Next, sit down with a clean, large-enough pad of paper and a writing tool that feels good in your hand.  Take a few deep clearing breaths and set the intention to tap into and hear what your body and Inner Whisper have to say to you.
  • Now, draw a simple stick figure.  Head. Body. Arms (don’t know why I was guided to put them in prayer position- maybe this whole exercise was an act of prayer). Legs. Hands. Feet.  There is no right or wrong way to draw—just trust what comes to mind.
  • Next, be sure your body is positioned comfortably and your feet are flat on the ground.  Bring your awareness to your body and notice where you feel any tension or thickness.  Where energy is blocked, our bodies often feel heavy, tight, or sometimes itchy.  Trust your first reactions and avoid over-thinking.  Your body will tell you.  Place a mark on your stick figure and write that body part on your page as if you are labeling it.
  • Scan your whole body and trust what comes up.  You may have many areas; you may just have a few.  Trust what comes up and note it on your page.Once you have your ‘body’ labeled.  Take a few more deep breaths.  Maybe even send a thought of appreciation to your Inner Whisper for sharing this awareness with you.
  • Now, go through each area, breathe in your heart, and ask your Inner Whisper, “What needs to be released or cleared?” and “Is there a message you want me to hear.” Write the very first thing that comes to your mind and trust the message you get.  Make notes on your diagram.
  • Finally, take in the information you received.  Breathe in the lessons your Inner Whisper had for you, and for each area that requires releasing resistance, take a deep breath in, and allow yourself to powerfully and gutturally exhale the resistance as if you can see it coming out of your mouth.  Sate out loud, “I clear, de-story, delete, and release any resistance to_______________.”

 

Lookie there! Yeah YOU! You have just completed your first intuitive body scan and energy clearing. How did it go?  If you are new to “tapping in” be patient with yourself and keep practicing.  Just like auditory listening is a skill that can be practiced, so is intuitive listening.

I’d love to hear your thoughts and reactions. In the comment box, please let me know how it felt, and what this clearing does for you.  Did you get any Ah-Has? Have you noticed any results?  Let me know and feel free to share this exercise you know with someone you love!

It’s so easy to get hooked by why other people a It’s so easy to get hooked by why other people are doing... and slip into comparison and doubt.

Eeeek. It happens to me too, especially when I’m tired.

That comparison and doubt is self judgement and it stops your flow and glow.

 And we need your flow and glow!

This is your reminder to 🛑 stop for a moment. Shake off- as in literally get up and do a full body shake to clear your nervous system and mind. Feel the shift of energy and then get back to YOUR path. Get back to YOUR plan. YOU do YOU. YOU BE YOU... and believe in YOURSELF.

Remember who you are... stand tall in your truth! 

I love you.
Be you, not them. That's what works. DO YOUR T Be you, not them. 

That's what works. 

DO YOUR THING.

Again and again.

I accidentally had a trip the other day. Let me b I accidentally had a trip the other day.

Let me back up and say that that’s not a normal occurrence for me.

But I had a little too much weed gummy and y’all some lessons occurred during that trip.

I’ll be honest that I had some shame and embarrassment around sharing this, but you are my people and there were some lessons so big in here I had to share.

I don’t want to ruin any of the story for you (it’s better to hear it!) but just know that this week’s podcast episode is an entertaining one AND full of lessons, ones that became so clear to me and that I hope will resonate with you too.

What truly motivates you? I bet the answer insid What truly motivates you? 

I bet the answer inside you may surprise you. 

Sure, you are probably like me in that you have a lot of desires, but desires, while motivating, aren't motivating enough, right? 

Think of all the times you have desired something but still held back or let them go. 

Desires just aren't the true motivator. 

The true motivator is your deepest primary fear. 

And there is only one way to really figure out your deepest primary fear- to continuously ask yourself the hard question of "why is this so important to me" again and again and again until you come to a deeper level of understanding. 

The world needs us digging into our fears and showing up and showing our work these days, let's reconnect with our true motivations and move forward.
