ALIGNING WITH THE LARGER ENERGY FIELD

It is important to understand that when one’s energy is maximized, one is aligned with the larger energy field.

When one is aligned with the larger energy field, one is on the correct Path.

FLUIDITY

INTENTIONS VERSUS GOALS

Goals lead to structure and precisionIntentions are more flexible. We can, for

example, waken in the morning and trust our intuition regarding setting intentions.

FEELING VERSUS EMOTION

Feeling; immediate connection with Spirit Emotion: the result of Ego related

descriptions and the fallacies and inconsistencies that they generate.
