InnerSelf's Daily Inspiration

March 17, 2023

The focus for today's inspiration is:

My inner knowing is my most trusted friend.

We have two inner voices. One voice comes from the rational brain - the temptress, the rebel who wants what she wants when she wants it, the voice that is governed by "shoulds." The other voice is that still quiet inner knowing, what is called our intuition.

Our intuition is our best guide and a welcome companion to our rational mind. Together they produce an unstoppable team, and allow us to live a life of ease.

Feeling pressure to be logical and conform to what we think others want is fairly common. Pleasing others is a tough habit to break. Remind yourself that your inner knowing is your most trusted friend. Practice giving it the right-of-way, and you'll see that your choices will yield a life of joy, love, and peace, now and over the long run.
