Changing the Channel

Binge-Watch Your Own Brilliance (No Subscription Needed)

You know that buzzing excitement you feel when you're about to share something big? That's exactly where I'm at right now. This week, I kicked off my new course, "Intuition Ignited: Mastering Your Higher Self Connection," and let me tell you, the energy is electric! As I dove into the first session, guiding my amazing students through the ins and outs of connecting with their inner wisdom, it hit me: we need to have a heart-to-heart about what channeling really is.

We're about to flip the script on everything you thought you knew about channeling. Trust me, it's way cooler (and more useful) than you might think!

The Many Channels of Wisdom

When most people hear "channeling," they might think of mediums communicating with spirits or individuals like Esther Hicks channeling collective consciousnesses like Abraham. And you know what? Those are absolutely valid and fascinating forms of channeling. People like Darryl Anka, who channels an entity named Bashar, have brought incredible insights to many.

But here's the thing: channeling isn't just about connecting with external entities. There's another, even more powerful form of channeling that's available to each and every one of us, all the time. It's about tuning into our own inner wisdom, that deep well of knowledge and intuition that we all possess.

Now, I know what you're thinking. "Inner wisdom? That sounds about as realistic as thinking your cat is secretly plotting world domination." (Okay, bad example. Your cat totally is.) But stick with me here, because this is where it gets good.

Changing the Channel: Redefining the Whole Shebang

So while we acknowledge and respect those who channel external wisdom, today we're going to focus on how you can channel your own higher self. Think of it as changing the channel from external broadcast to your own personal, internal network. Yep, YOU have your personal network. MIND. BLOWN

This form of channeling isn't about being a vessel for other entities. It's about cranking up the volume on your own inner guru. It's like discovering you've had a superpower all along, and now you're learning how to use it.

Side note: The word "channeling" itself is a bit of a misnomer, too. It's like calling your smartphone a "magic knowledge box." Sure, it sounds cool, but it misses the point entirely. Your phone isn't magically conjuring information from the ether – it's accessing data that's already out there. Similarly, when you're "channeling," you're not pulling info from some external mystical source. You're tapping into the wisdom that's already inside you.

The Reality of Personal Channeling

When you're channeling your higher self, you're accessing deeper levels of consciousness. It's like doing a deep dive into the archives of your mind. But here's the kicker – this isn't just about tapping into your personal database of experiences and knowledge. It goes way deeper than that.

You see, when we talk about your "higher self" or “inner wisdom,” we're really talking about that part of you that's connected to something much bigger. Call it the Universe, the Source, Divine Consciousness, or the Great Cosmic Meme Generator (okay, maybe not that last one, but you get the idea). It's that infinite wellspring of wisdom that we're all a part of, whether we realize it or not.

So when you're tuning into your inner wisdom, you're not just accessing your own limited perspective. You're tapping into a universal knowledge that's been around since, well, forever. It's like having a hotline to the heavenly internet, but without the annoying pop-up ads.

This isn't about some separate, judgmental entity watching your every move and waiting to smite you for eating that last cookie. (The cookie police are a myth, I promise.) It's about recognizing that you – yes, you with the bed head and coffee stains – are an integral part of this grand, universal dance. Your inner wisdom is your personal translator for the universe's vast language.

Myth Busters: Channeling Edition

Time to play a little game I like to call "Channeling Fact or Fiction?"

(there's no phone-a-friend option, but you can totally consult your inner wisdom!)

• "Channeling means you'll start speaking in a weird accent."

  Fiction! Unless you count your inner voice suddenly sounding like Morgan Freeman. That's just cool.

• "You need a crystal ball and flowing robes to channel."

  No! Though if that's your jam, you do you, boo. Personal channeling is more of a "come as you are" party.

• "Channeled info is always 100% accurate."

  Oh, honey. If only! Whether it's your higher self or a cosmic entity, always keep your critical thinking hat on.

• "Only special, gifted people can channel."

  Nooo! Everyone can tap into their inner wisdom. Some people just have more practice. It's like yoga, but for your intuition.

• "Channeling is always super serious and profound."

  Nope! Most of the time it's as simple as suddenly remembering where you left your keys.

Remember, whether you're open to chatting with cosmic beings or want to get cozy with your own inner Divine guidance, the channeling world is your oyster. Just approach it with an open mind, a sense of humor, and maybe some popcorn. It's quite the show!

The How-To Guide: Accessing Your Inner Wisdom Network

So how do you actually do this channeling thing? It's not about lighting candles and chanting (though if that helps you relax, go for it). It's about creating the right conditions to hear your inner voice more clearly.

Here are some tips:

• Quiet the mental chatter. Meditation, deep breathing, or even a nice walk can help.

• Ask questions. Your inner wisdom loves a good question. Make it specific and meaningful.

• Be open to answers in various forms. Sometimes it's a clear thought, sometimes a feeling, sometimes a sudden urge to call your mom.

• Practice, practice, practice. Like any skill, the more you do it, the better you get.

The Payoff: Why Bother With All This?

Tuning into your inner wisdom isn't just a cool party trick. It can be a game-changer in your life:

• Decision making becomes less of a stress-fest and more of an intuitive flow.

• You start to understand yourself on a deeper level. Hello, self-awareness!

• Creativity gets a major boost. Writer's block? More like writer's floodgates!

• Your intuition sharpens, helping you navigate life's twists and turns with more grace.

The Fine Print: Keeping It Real

Now, before you go thinking every random thought is a pearl of wisdom from your higher self, let's keep it real. Sometimes a thought is just a thought. That sudden urge to eat an entire cake? Probably not profound inner guidance (but delicious nonetheless).

The key is to balance intuition with good old-fashioned critical thinking. Your inner wisdom is a powerful tool, but it's not meant to replace logic and reason. It's more like they're all part of your personal board of directors, working together to help you live your best life.

Oh, and keep an eye on your cat. I'm still convinced they're up to something.

And That's a Wrap!

So there you go. Channeling isn't about becoming a medium for spirits or aliens. It's about tuning into the brilliant, wise, slightly sassy version of you that's been there all along -the version that's plugged into the universal source code of existence. It's like finding out you've had a superpower this whole time, and you didn't even need to be bitten by a radioactive spider.

Ready to start binge-watching your own brilliance? Remember, this show is always on, commercial-free, and trust me, it's way more entertaining than anything else on TV. Your inner wisdom has been waiting for primetime – and darling, you're the star!

Love always,
