Get Clearer Intuition By Eating & Drinking Like This…

My whole life was oriented around eating and drinking. I didn’t know this until last year though when my next-level spiritual awakening occurred and suddenly I couldn’t…

…eat meat.

…eat sugar.

…drink alcohol.

…eat foods with preservatives like citric acid and carrageenan and mono-blah-blah-blah and all of those other ingredients no one can pronounce.

I was already caffeine, gluten, dairy, soy, & corn-free. What more did they (the ominous, ever present “they”, what I was interpreting as my Spirit Team) want from me?

Apparently a lot more.

As it turns out, to be a clear channel for Divine Will, one’s body must be a clear channel. And while that clearly makes sense now that I’ve written it and subsequently said it out loud, I never fully understood how literal this was until last year when I would get sick if I had sugar or preservatives. And then my desire for meat and alcohol (both of which I was a consistent and regular consumer of) completely vanished. I suddenly felt like gagging just thinking about or smelling alcohol and meat.

What in the hell?

Then, more and more of my clients as they became aligned with their Highest path were receiving guidance to adjust their eating habits and they found they could no longer metabolize alcohol as well.

Something was definitely up. Turns out those called to this path are “advanced souls“.

And this shouldn’t be a newsflash, but it was, I think for most of us who have been called to this path. If you wish to live a life guided by your intuition and guidance from your Spirit Team, you need to have a body-mind that is a clear enough channel to be able to accurately receive the messages. So not only do we need to release limiting beliefs, traumas and fears, but we also must have a body that is clear enough for us to receive this guidance from.

So if you have the experience of: “well my intuition told me this but it turned out like this____” and you’re upset about it, you have to assess just how clear your “intuition” is. When I started out on this path, I thought my intuition led me to do things like end relationships and go to this bar to meet this person or do that thing. Now looking back I can see clearly that since I was not a clear channel at all and was just learning about intuition that these “whispers” were in truth my limiting beliefs and wounds nudging me. We have to be taking care of our energetic health and clearing regularly to be able to wisely trust our intuition.

Here are a couple of things to ask yourself if you are feeling like your intuition is “off”:

Are you receiving consistent  and regular release/clearing of limiting thought-forms, beliefs, fears and traumas?
Is your body clear of stimulants like caffeine and addictive properties like sugar and alcohol and preservatives? Are you eating a balanced, clean diet?

If you wish to live a life based on your intuition, you’ve got to be clear more of the time. And depending on your path, these can be simple adjustments like switching to decaf or half-caff or only having 1 glass of alcohol or whatever it might be for you.

I didn’t realize how much alcohol or sugar clouded me until last year when I was down to just 1 glass a week of wine and the next day after having 1 glass I could feel it in my body. Same with sugar. Even the “organic” kind. I can literally feel the cloudiness in my system if I consume it.

That was enough for me to see. But for years I drank wine several times a week, had sugar several times a week and didn’t seem to notice any disruption to my system.

Once it was cleared out, I could immediately feel the dis-ease that it introduced to my body.

Wow!

It’s not that your intuition can’t work with stimulants and depressants and chemicals in it, it’s just not as finely tuned. So if you find yourself questioning your guidance more of the time or thinking you’re receiving guidance and then having wonky outcomes, it will help to first look at your body-mind to see how clear it is.

If you feel like you could be clearer – and hey listen, I thought I was super clear, I received multiple clearing sessions a week, ate gluten-dairy-soy-caffeine-corn-free and yet I’ve been amazed at what these additional tweaks have done for me – you could probably be more clear.

For me it has been Next. Level. Baby. Next. Level.

There’s an additional expansion that occurs when you make these changes – not only does your food and drink get an upgrade, your social life gets totally reorganized as well.

My “social life” since I was 21 was centered around happy hours and potlucks and wine tasting.

With sugar and alcohol knocked out in 1 fail swoop, I had to get creative.

I had to go deeper within. What did I actually enjoy doing? What was my Soul calling me to? What really lit me up?

The answers were art galleries and museums (I bought a membership!), plays and movies, foot rubs and foot soaks and pedicures, literary events and author readings, nature, nature, nature, roadtrips, cooking my favorite foods but according to my new way of eating, sparkling water and discovering that if it’s not Italian it’s not worth drinking.

Suddenly a whole world of social activity and pure life enjoyment was opened up to me. I was more present, I was more clear, I was savoring moments more fully. Bottom line: I was living more fully.

Only I had no one to go with me to any of these activities since everyone in my life’s social life also consisted of eating and drinking as the sole forms of socialization.

So I had to make new friends. I had to ask my current friends if they were willing to try new things with me. I had to stretch. And it was a very good thing.

Now, when a social outing involves food and drink – I’m to the point where I can navigate the food with ease and I drink hot herbal tea or sparkling water in a wine glass (sexy I know & bartenders now love me ;)).

But the best part is – I don’t miss it. I don’t miss eating and drinking and having it cloud my judgement and my thoughts. I don’t miss polluting my body.

I love feeling clear. I love feeling connected and I love all of the richness this shift in my eating and drinking habits has brought to me.

For those feeling called to upgrade your eating and drinking patterns I highly recommend writing out a list of your favorite foods and then finding a way to make those recipes (google what you’re looking for – it’s amazing what you’ll find!) or eat at restaurants that have clean and healthy versions of this food. For me, I had loved champagne and so sparkling Italian water (Whole Foods brand is literally THE BEST Italian Sparkling water on the planet, just saying) in a wine glass was the perfect upgrade. You can take what you loved before and give it a vibrational upgrade. Then, it doesn’t feel like you’re being deprived, it feels like you are expanding into a higher state of consciousness (which you are).

And as a total side benny, your body feels and looks AMAZING. And you can’t hate on that.

Some of my clients have experienced push back from friends and family about these changes and have had trouble navigating this when it occurs. The first thing to ask yourself if this happens is if there is any part of you that is judging you as they seem to be. Remember, everyone is showing us something about ourselves.

The second part here is to calmly and politely explain that you want to live at a new level of consciousness or simply that you feel better when you eat/drink in this way. Ultimately you don’t have to explain to anyone what you are guided to, but what does matter is that YOU feel in alignment with whatever path of eating and drinking you are following.

So get clear with you and then everyone around you should be okay with it too. My family has been used to me eating “weird” since I went gluten-free before it was even a cool thing to do about 14 years ago. Now while they never adjusted to it, they no longer make fun of me. I just bring all of my own food when I visit or for the holidays. And big win – they now love my gluten-dairy-soy-corn-free stuffing and gluten-dairy-soy-corn-free mac-n-cheese. Not drinking still freaks some of my sister’s out, but I just smile and shrug it off.

I’ve also started attracting friends who eat a lot like I do, and so we have a blast going to our fave vegan restaurant (Harlow on SE Hawthorne in Portland) or making food together that follows our way of eating.

The other piece to remember is that our body goes through cycles and phases. While you may not want to have meat now, you may find you start craving it again in the future or if you’re a woman during your moon time.  I found that my body wanted no animal products for 6 months straight. After that, I am drawn to have animal protein in the form of eggs or organic meat 2-3 times a week (still no cheese, damnit! ;)) with usually some red meat during my moon cycle. So be willing to flow with what your body desires and let it be your guide. Trust that when you are committed to living the fullness of your life experience – working with your Higher Self/intuition and Spirit Team – that you will be guided to what you need one way or the other and that you must be willing to be flexible with whatever comes your way.

Creating friendships and relationships with others who honor and respect the way you live your life is hugely important.

Having a social life that is a true reflection of who you really are – not just what you’ve been conditioned to do (like for me happy hours and drinking) allows your life to be more rich and full. And that’s what you wanted when you incarnated. Trust me on this.

Enjoy this Magical path of Life and allow your channel to be as clear as you are called to create it.

In love & magic,
