0:39

and welcome to Psychic Teachers. I'm

0:41

your host, Samantha Faye. And

0:43

I'm Deb Bowen. And we're so

0:45

happy to have you join us.

0:48

Today, we're talking about six ways

0:50

to jumpstart your intuition. You

0:52

know, as we head into the holiday

0:54

season and now we're at daylight savings

0:57

and the days are getting shorter, the

0:59

nights are getting longer. It's a really

1:01

good time to kind of snuggle in

1:03

and focus on you and your

1:05

goals as you wrap up this year and

1:08

really think about what can I do

1:10

for my intuition. I think we all

1:12

need a little nudge and a reminder

1:14

to kickstart our intuition again.

1:17

Don't you, Deb? Absolutely.

1:20

Okay. So the first one that we came

1:22

up with that is going to be really

1:24

great at kickstarting your intuition is called

1:27

falling in love with your solitude. This

1:29

is really important because it allows you to

1:31

get to know your emotions. This

1:34

helps you to understand when a

1:36

message is coming from your intuition

1:38

versus your ego. So it's a

1:40

good idea to check in with

1:42

yourself consistently and ask, are

1:44

these my emotions, my fears,

1:46

my worries? Is this mine

1:48

to carry? Or am I

1:50

picking up someone else's energy? Sometimes,

1:53

especially if you're a strong empath, it

1:55

can be really hard to discern what

1:58

is your stuff and what is mine.

2:01

not your stuff. But when you start

2:03

to practice solitude and silence within yourself,

2:06

you will recognize your own energy

2:08

and emotions much, much better. Setting

2:11

boundaries is a part of this. The

2:13

better you get at setting boundaries

2:16

with yourself, your time with others,

2:19

the more easily you'll be able to

2:21

develop discernment, which will help you enhance

2:23

your intuition. No is

2:25

not a dirty word. Amen,

2:28

sister. That is true. And that

2:30

takes practice though, especially

2:32

for people who are uncomfortable with that as I

2:34

was. It took me a long time to learn

2:36

boundaries, but it's so important not

2:39

only for day-to-day stuff,

2:41

but also for psychic protection.

2:43

True story. Spend time

2:45

in silence because this is when

2:47

your intuition is given the peace

2:49

it needs to communicate with us.

2:52

The more comfortable you become with

2:54

silence, the more easily you'll notice

2:57

those inner messages. This

2:59

is something I feel is like a

3:01

lost art, Deb. And I'm

3:03

not like speaking in

3:05

a teacher mode. I'm speaking to myself when

3:08

I say this. Like, do you ever think

3:10

about, well, you're good at this, so I

3:12

won't even ask you. But I think about

3:14

how throughout my day, I'm always talking

3:16

or texting or answering an email

3:18

or listening to an audio

3:20

book. There's always noise around me. And

3:22

it's so important, I think, to carve

3:25

out that time for silence. I

3:27

agree with you. It is hard to do

3:29

that. And one of the

3:31

ways that I've found to be silent

3:33

is to use something like sitting

3:36

by the ocean and just listening to

3:38

the sound of the waves until even

3:41

they fade into the background. So

3:44

spending that time being still, and I know

3:46

you're going to talk about that, but

3:48

I really do think that that's

3:50

an important piece of learning to be

3:53

in silence. I do too.

3:55

My friend drove up and down the

3:57

East Coast and challenged

3:59

me. herself to do it. She did it

4:01

alone. And she challenged

4:03

herself to do it without any

4:06

radio, any podcast, nothing,

4:08

just herself in the road, hour

4:11

after hour, day after day. And she

4:14

said it was hard and

4:17

enlightening and illuminating and amazing.

4:19

I don't know that I could do that. Oh,

4:22

I can. I can. Like eight

4:24

hours in the car without anything to distract

4:26

you from the monotony of the road? Probably.

4:29

Yeah, I did. I actually I just took a

4:31

trip to my favorite little island. And

4:34

I spent part of that

4:36

time just in the car with with nothing.

4:38

No, no radio, no music playing. And then

4:40

while I was on the ferry, I

4:43

spent a lot of time looking out at that water

4:45

and some time riding. Yeah, I

4:47

can do some time in silence. I just

4:49

mean, if I'm alone in a car for

4:51

eight hours, I'm going

4:53

to need some music. But

4:57

I think it's great to set those goals

4:59

for yourself because when we are able

5:02

to be silent with ourselves,

5:04

it allows those those repressed

5:06

thoughts, those hidden

5:09

fears, anxieties, all the bubble up to

5:11

the surface so that we can face

5:13

them, address them, heal them, shed them.

5:15

And when all of that is cleared

5:17

away, then so many

5:20

blocks to your intuition disappear as well. True.

5:24

Journal your thoughts. This is a great

5:26

way to get to know yourself. Not

5:28

only does journaling release anxiety, it

5:31

helps us express our true feelings

5:33

and learn to be a good

5:35

steward of our own thoughts and

5:37

intuition. Now here's another tip that I think

5:40

is really important. And this one I do do. Do

5:43

mindless activities to allow your

5:45

thoughts space to wander. Doing

5:48

mindless activities that are repetitive,

5:51

like coloring, knitting, walking, even

5:53

cleaning the house, allows

5:55

our thoughts to wander and eventually settle,

5:57

which gives our intuition the space to

6:00

it needs to rise to the

6:02

surface and be heard, seen, and

6:04

recognized. And of course,

6:06

trust your gut. When something or someone

6:08

feels off, listen to your

6:11

intuition and follow that instinct. When

6:14

faced with decisions, pay attention

6:16

to how you feel in your body. Notice

6:19

any physical sensations that accompany certain

6:21

choices. A strong positive

6:24

feeling might indicate alignment with your

6:26

intuition, while discomfort can be

6:28

a signal to reconsider. And

6:32

take a break from information overload.

6:35

We are inundated with information that

6:37

can drown out our intuition. Reduce

6:40

the noise by limiting your consumption of

6:43

news and social media. Set

6:45

boundaries around your digital habits to

6:47

create more mental space for your

6:49

intuitive thoughts. Embrace

6:51

silence and solitude, allowing your

6:54

mind to breathe. So

6:57

that's our first tip for jump-starting your

6:59

intuition, is to fall in love with

7:01

yourself and your own solitude. And

7:04

then our second tip is to work

7:06

on raising your vibration. Every

7:10

muscle, cell, tissue, and

7:12

bone in your body

7:14

is always in a state of

7:16

vibration. You can listen

7:19

to certain audio frequencies to get your

7:21

vibration into a positive state. For

7:24

example, binaural beats,

7:26

listening to sounds of nature

7:28

or healing music by composers

7:30

like Stephen Halperin, oh he's

7:32

wonderful, are also recommended. But

7:35

even just listening to positive upbeat

7:37

music itself is helpful. I

7:40

remember Samantha back in the

7:42

80s when this old genre of music

7:44

that was called New Age music evolved.

7:47

And it was just this wonderful music

7:49

that I think now has sort of

7:51

morphed into what we call spa music.

7:54

But back in those days, it was

7:56

Stephen Halperin and David Arkanstone. David

8:00

Lance and Paul Spear and Yanni

8:02

and on and on and

8:04

on. Yanni, oh my gosh, I'm going to so

8:07

date myself. But do you remember when Linda Evans

8:09

started to date him and everyone was like, what

8:11

is she doing? No, I

8:13

remember being so jealous because he was so

8:15

gorgeous. Well, he was very, very

8:17

handsome. But that music and that genre

8:19

was so fringe back

8:21

then. It was, and oh

8:23

my golly, Granny Jane the

8:26

palm reader and I and Joel

8:28

just absorbed it. But in

8:30

any case, moving on, 440 Hertz dampens the

8:35

creative mind, keeping the

8:38

masses calm and under control.

8:40

Many say it was the set

8:42

as the official scale for modern music,

8:45

which I don't think I believe. But anyway,

8:47

396 Hertz helps alleviate guilt, 417

8:53

Hertz helps release trauma, 528 Hertz

8:55

is the natural frequency of earth and

8:59

is said to help transform DNA. 852

9:02

Hertz awakens the intuition. You

9:06

know, it's nice, you can just go on YouTube and

9:09

search 852 Hertz music and

9:12

a bunch of selections will come up. We

9:14

will and I don't know if people who've taken certain

9:18

courses with me over time have.

9:20

We've talked about how you

9:22

can work with toning music,

9:25

toning water with a

9:28

tuning fork to certain Hertz, to

9:31

certain vibration and then drinking some

9:33

of that water and that helps to raise

9:36

your vibration. And also it's a way of

9:38

working with Perkimer Diamonds that is helpful for

9:40

that. So there are lots of ways of

9:43

tuning your vibrations

9:46

to match the vibratory energies

9:50

that you want to accomplish in the

9:52

world around you. And some people may

9:54

remember wonderful Dr. Imoto who's no longer

9:57

with us who wrote the book entitled

9:59

Hidden Messy. in water, he

10:01

exposed water to various ones

10:03

of these frequencies, then froze

10:06

the water and took photos

10:08

with high powered lenses of

10:10

those water droplets. What

10:12

he found was that water

10:14

exposed to high frequencies exhibited

10:16

these beautiful patterns. And then

10:18

water exposed to low frequencies like heavy

10:21

metal music looked polluted and sad.

10:23

In fact, some of them were

10:25

either kind of brown different colors.

10:27

If our body is over 70% water,

10:30

which it is, then what are

10:32

the frequencies we listen to? What

10:34

are they doing to our bodies? So

10:36

be aware of your vibratory

10:38

rates. Sit in the sun. Not

10:40

only do you need vitamin C and vitamin D,

10:43

but you need 15 to 20

10:45

minutes of natural sunlight to produce

10:48

serotonin, which helps activate

10:50

the pineal gland, which

10:52

needs natural light during the day

10:55

and total darkness at night in order

10:57

to properly regulate itself. Serotonin, of

10:59

course, has been shown to help

11:01

regulate our mood, behavior and appetites.

11:04

Getting enough serotonin helps reduce the

11:06

sadness that often comes with the darker,

11:08

wintry days. I know people

11:10

who use particular kinds of sun

11:12

lamps in the winter to alleviate

11:15

that sadness syndrome. And this,

11:17

of course, is important. Do exercise, whatever

11:19

feels good to you. Walking, yoga,

11:21

tai chi, just stretching, helps

11:24

align your vibrations and release endorphins.

11:27

Go hug somebody. Studies

11:30

have shown that when we hug for at

11:32

least 30 seconds, all sorts

11:34

of wonderful endorphins go off in our bodies.

11:37

And then spend time in the day doing

11:41

something just for you and build

11:43

that into your schedule. This

11:45

gives you something to look forward to, sends

11:48

a powerful reminder to yourself that

11:51

you matter, and it

11:53

helps you increase self-love. So whatever

11:55

it is, whatever you do that

11:57

is just for you, it

11:59

doesn't have to... Be very long, but whatever

12:01

it is, just do it.

12:04

Obviously, pay attention to your diet. Notice

12:06

foods that upset your stomach and make

12:08

you feel weighted down, and

12:11

avoid processed foods as much as possible.

12:14

And of course, working with crystals helps to

12:16

raise your vibration. And we'll talk about all

12:18

of that in a little while. I

12:21

was talking to my daughter the other day when

12:23

I was driving home from her trip, and she

12:25

said we were talking about

12:27

her aura and vibrations, and

12:30

she said she was having some

12:32

really weird dreams. And she was like, I think I

12:34

need to raise my aura. And I

12:36

was like, no, no, you need to raise your

12:38

vibrations. And she was saying

12:40

she didn't understand the difference between her

12:42

aura and her vibrations. And

12:45

I thought that was really interesting because she's

12:48

my child, and I talk about this stuff all the

12:50

time. But then I thought, I

12:52

wonder if a lot of people have that

12:55

question. Your aura is the

12:57

energy that you exude, and it

12:59

extends about four to six

13:01

feet around you, below you, and

13:03

above your head. And so

13:05

it's the energy, it's your vibratory rate,

13:08

the energy, your moods, emotions, all of that

13:10

is contained in the aura. But

13:13

your vibration is how all your

13:15

cells, your

13:18

emotions, your tissues, all of that,

13:20

how the energy is spinning. And

13:23

so that can be lifted when we're

13:25

feeling happy, when we have good sleep,

13:27

when we look forward to going to

13:29

work, when things are harmonious in our

13:31

relationships, when we're connected to our passion,

13:33

when we're tuned into our intuition. But

13:35

those vibratory rates can get lowered when

13:38

we're worried or overtired or stressed

13:40

or hung up on something that's

13:42

making us feel stuck. And

13:45

so all of that will be projected into

13:47

the aura, but your aura and

13:49

your vibratory rate are different. Your aura is

13:51

like an energy field around you. It is

13:53

you. And in a perfect world and in

13:56

a perfect day, you look

13:58

like a rainbow, but most of us. don't because

14:00

we have all sorts of other stuff going

14:02

on. So we kind of have one color

14:04

predominant or another over time. Do you

14:06

remember, you remember our dear friend, Annie?

14:09

Of course. She had

14:11

this photo album where she

14:13

would take the curling photograph of her

14:15

aura in

14:17

the morning, and then she would do

14:20

an entire day of Reiki. So she

14:22

had people come in and she would

14:24

do Reiki on them. She also did

14:26

Reiki facials, which was absolutely heavenly. And

14:28

at the end of the day of

14:30

just sitting in that beautiful vibratory Reiki

14:32

energy, she would have her aura photo

14:34

taken again, and it would be a

14:36

rainbow. Right. And

14:38

she had these all documented in that photo

14:40

album. I just thought that was such a

14:42

cool experiment. You know, when she

14:44

was doing the aura photography,

14:47

she had her store every year for my

14:49

birthday, that's what I gave myself for my

14:51

birthday was an annual aura photo. And

14:54

it was fascinating to see, depending

14:57

on where I was in my life and

14:59

my process, what

15:01

my aura looked like. It was almost always

15:04

some shades of green, blues and purples. But

15:07

I never got the whole rainbow thing, which

15:10

I was hoping for, but I never did. But

15:12

Annie's was often read. Yeah, because she was

15:14

such an energetic person and, and

15:17

just exuded all of this creativity.

15:19

It was fascinating. Yeah. And so passionate

15:21

about sharing it. So I hope I

15:23

explained that well. So your vibratory rate

15:26

is different than your aura. Your vibratory

15:28

rate is reflected in your body, your

15:30

mind, your soul, your aura, your

15:33

body vibrates, your aura vibrates. And

15:35

the, one of the best ways

15:37

to really kickstart your intuition is

15:39

to keep that vibratory energy up.

15:42

All right, let's take a quick break.

15:44

And when we come back, we'll finish

15:46

talking about ways to jumpstart your intuition.

16:01

I am so excited that my new

16:03

18:44

Welcome back. We're talking about

18:46

kickstarting your intuition. Our

18:48

third tip is to create a

18:50

daily ritual. How you begin

18:52

your morning sets the tone for the whole

18:55

day. So try committing

18:57

to a daily ritual that helps awaken

18:59

your intuition. You could pull

19:01

a card each day, choose a

19:03

crystal to carry with you, go

19:05

for a morning walk, or

19:07

you could try free writing. Some people

19:10

call these morning pages from the artist

19:12

way. And that's just where you let

19:14

your thoughts flow without restriction. This

19:17

practice can uncover patterns and insights that

19:19

will help guide your intuition. Of

19:22

course, Deb and I recommend meditating for

19:24

five, 10, 20 minutes in the

19:26

morning. You

19:28

could say a prayer for your loved

19:31

ones and yourself that everyone feels surrounded

19:33

by love today and always. You

19:35

could do a light worker prayer for peace

19:37

and harmony in the world. I

19:40

know Deb, that's part of your daily ritual. It

19:43

is. And you know, the first thing I

19:45

do as I wake up

19:47

enough to think, okay, I really do have to get out

19:49

of this bed. I get through with my

19:51

five more minutes in the bed thing. And,

19:53

but when, as my feet are hitting the floor, I

19:57

say two words. I

19:59

say, thank. you. And

20:02

I by that I mean, thank

20:04

you for keeping

20:06

me alive during the night. Thank you

20:08

for the day that's coming, whatever it

20:10

may bring, just this huge

20:12

amount of gratitude. That's the first thing

20:14

I say. And then I do

20:18

exactly what you're suggesting. I do

20:20

what's called a Lightworkers Prayer. And

20:22

it literally is where I bring

20:25

my fingers together, my

20:27

tips of my fingers together. And

20:30

I imagine that I am holding

20:32

the planet in light. And

20:35

other folks around the planet are doing

20:37

the same thing. If you create a

20:40

triangle, basically, put your thumbs

20:42

together, and your two, four fingers together.

20:44

So you create this triangle. And

20:46

you envision that the triangle of your

20:49

light energy is connecting with

20:51

other people all around the planet, holding

20:53

the planet in light every day. And

20:56

the last thing I do before I go to

20:58

sleep at night is I say thank

21:00

you again. I love that. And

21:02

having any type of ritual like that really

21:05

does connect you with yourself. It creates

21:07

a touchstone with who you are, our

21:10

inner compass, and reminds us that we're

21:13

more than little worker bees just checking

21:15

off to-do list. But it also lets

21:17

your team of helpers know that there's

21:19

space in your day for them to

21:21

communicate with you. I mean,

21:23

think about if your guides are trying to connect

21:26

with you and help you enhance and strengthen your

21:28

intuition, but you're just busy all the day, or

21:30

you've got your AirPods in your ears all the

21:32

time, or you're on the phone or checking social

21:35

media or watching the news, how

21:37

are they going to get that message to you? But

21:39

when you have a daily ritual that

21:42

calms centers and grounds you and connects

21:44

you within, it's going to let

21:46

them know, oh, hey, when she's doing her prayers in the

21:48

morning, that's a good time to get a message in there.

21:51

Sure. Absolutely. So you knew we were going

21:53

to be talking about crystals, right? I mean,

21:55

you know that if you're going to talk

21:57

about intuition and being still and really focusing.

26:00

shut down their intuitive abilities and now

26:02

wish to reawaken them. And I think

26:04

we got an email not long ago

26:06

from somebody, maybe it was on our Facebook

26:08

page, where somebody said they had shut their

26:11

abilities down and didn't know

26:14

now how to reawaken them. And labrodita is a

26:16

stone that will certainly help you with that. Yeah,

26:19

it's a powerful one. And it's a great

26:21

one to wear as well, because it does

26:23

help. It's got that reflective quality. So I

26:25

always say it works like a filter. So

26:27

it allows the good energy in but it

26:30

does help filter and block out the bad

26:32

stuff. It's beautiful when the light hits it

26:34

because it looks like this kind of boring

26:36

gray rock. The light hits it

26:38

and it's like, whoa, there

26:40

you are. There's the magic. Let's

26:44

talk about amethyst, which is another stone

26:46

that sometimes gets shoved

26:48

in the background and shouldn't be. It

26:51

is called the stone of spirituality. Amethyst

26:54

calms the mind while allowing

26:57

the soul to awaken. Amethyst

27:00

reminds us that we are one and

27:02

that as we open to

27:04

our abilities, we are helping others

27:06

to do the same. Amethyst

27:09

lifts us to the next level

27:11

in our spiritual development. Sleeping

27:14

with amethyst can encourage astral

27:16

travel and help you to

27:18

remember your dreams. Maybe a piece under your

27:20

pillow or on your bedside table. If

27:23

you have a psychic child in your home,

27:25

place a piece of amethyst by their bed.

27:27

It will protect them from negative dreams and

27:30

help them to understand their abilities

27:32

with patience and wisdom. Amethyst

27:35

works best when it's near your body. So

27:37

where it is jewelry, carry a

27:39

piece with you or as I said,

27:41

keep it by your bedside. Moon stone,

27:44

it is a highly mystical stone. It

27:47

helps develop latent psychic abilities

27:49

that have been shut down due to fear or

27:52

misunderstanding. It is believed

27:54

that this amazing stone absorbs

27:57

the power of the moon. So

27:59

make sure to Recently,

32:17

a a new client called me and

32:19

33:08

Morgan, for The People. injured,

33:10

Visit forthepeople.com an office near

33:13

you. This

48:01

little voice in my head says, oh, fine,

48:03

she has sat down and shut up. Let's

48:05

talk while we got a minute. And

48:08

off they go. I do

48:10

know. Yeah, I know I do all of these

48:13

things pretty consistently and pretty

48:15

well. I

48:18

do make time to meditate. And of

48:20

course, I work with crystals and all

48:22

of that good stuff. But throughout my

48:24

day, creating moments of silence, that's what

48:27

I'm working on increasing. I

48:30

guess what you're saying, sitting down and shutting up. Right.

48:33

Exactly. Having a little bit of

48:35

silence with my own good self.

48:37

So I think that is really,

48:40

really important because we're just

48:42

too distracted. I have a lot of silence

48:44

in my day. I don't

48:46

listen to music when I'm writing or working or doing.

48:48

I don't. I have silence in

48:50

my day. What I don't have is silence

48:52

in my head. Yeah.

48:56

And that's what I mean by sitting

48:59

down and shutting up. I mean cutting

49:01

off the chatter in my head so

49:03

that other information can come through. So

49:06

the only way I can do that

49:09

effectively is to do a mindless activity.

49:11

Like one of the things I'm always telling students

49:14

is take a walk with your guide. And

49:17

I know that might sound like what? But

49:20

yeah, you're invisible helper. So I'll go for

49:22

a walk around my neighborhood or in my

49:24

local park and I'll just have

49:26

a conversation in my head with my guide as

49:29

I'm doing the first round of the loop. And

49:31

then on the way back, I try to just be

49:34

silent. And I don't know, I

49:36

just feel like when your body is moving, it's

49:39

easier to have stillness in

49:41

your thoughts. Well, I can see

49:43

how that would be for you. For

49:46

me, music

49:48

without words, toning, singing

49:51

bowls, some of that old new age

49:53

music, that is really, really

49:55

helpful to me. Carlos

49:59

Nakai's music, his

50:01

Canyon trilogy, is

50:03

absolutely one of my favorite pieces

50:06

of stillness meditation music.

50:08

When I play that kind of music, I

50:11

don't hear the music so much consciously anymore.

50:13

It kind of fades into the

50:15

background. And that's when there's

50:18

room for that silence in my head

50:21

and other information to come through. But

50:23

do you ever just sit in

50:26

silence and stillness? Yes.

50:29

Like where you're not writing? Yes,

50:32

I do. You're just sitting. And

50:34

holding a rock in my hand. I sure do. No,

50:37

I don't even mean meditating. I mean, like, do

50:39

you ever just sit and stare out the window?

50:43

Yes. OK, see, that's

50:45

what I do, too. I'm always moving, doing, thinking. And that's

50:47

what I want to cultivate more time to do. Oh, I

50:49

would love to cultivate more. I'm going to put that on

50:52

my to-do list. Do nothing for 30 minutes. Do

50:57

you remember you may

50:59

not even you may not be old

51:01

enough. Years ago, there was a television show

51:03

called Northern Exposure. I remember that.

51:06

And there was a woman on the on the

51:09

show who was a

51:11

native woman from, I

51:13

guess, Alaska is where they were. And

51:15

sometimes she would just be sitting

51:18

someplace. And I remember a particular

51:20

scene where one of the people

51:22

in the cast passed her and

51:24

said her name was Marilyn. I can remember the character's

51:26

name and said, Marilyn, what

51:29

are you doing? And she said sitting.

51:32

And I remember thinking, what

51:34

a powerful, simple,

51:37

clear answer. Sitting.

51:40

Yeah. How often do we do that?

51:43

Well, not as much as I would like

51:45

to. And every once in a while, and

51:47

particularly now, for example, as we've done this

51:49

episode, I think, OK, I'm

51:51

going to write a schedule and

51:54

I'm going to put it together and I'm going

51:56

to behave and I'm going to do do do

51:58

or not do do do. some of the things that we're

52:00

talking about doing or not doing. I'll

52:03

let you know how that goes. I'll

52:06

hold my breath. Okay, you go

52:08

ahead with that. But you don't

52:11

seriously, it really

52:13

would be, I think, helpful

52:15

to me and maybe to other people to

52:17

to say, okay, between two

52:19

and 230 in the afternoon

52:22

every day, the world can just go away

52:24

for a while. And I'm just going to

52:26

sit or I'm going to do any

52:28

one of these exercises that we have suggested

52:31

to people and see how that works. You

52:34

know, yeah, I do. I

52:36

promise you nothing, but I think it

52:38

it's helpful. I think you have

52:40

to like write it down, make it happen, right? So

52:42

if you if you commit to that and put it

52:44

in the schedule, it's going to happen. Exactly.

52:47

So as we wrap up, it's

52:49

important to remember that when we

52:51

are born, our pineal glands are much

52:53

larger, but it begins

52:55

to shrink when we enter puberty. This

52:58

is why children are so tuned in

53:00

and connected to their psychic abilities. But

53:03

if you were to apply some of these

53:05

techniques we've mentioned today, it will help your

53:07

pineal gland to reawaken and help

53:10

you truly jumpstart your intuition. Make

53:13

sure to get enough sleep each

53:15

night, practice meditation, drink plenty of

53:17

water, enjoy a healthy diet, work

53:20

with crystals, and don't forget to eat

53:22

your dark chocolate. You guys

53:24

might remember I took that class with Lloyd

53:27

Auerbach, who's considered the what

53:29

is he? He's I think he's the only

53:31

American who has his PhD in parapsychology. And

53:34

he did a whole lesson one

53:36

night on studies that have shown

53:38

dark chocolate helps awaken your intuition.

53:41

So if you Oh, I should be really awake. What?

53:44

I should be really awake. It

53:50

has to be like really dark chocolate, though. I think it has

53:52

to be more than 72%. I

53:54

could do that. Okay. Visualize

53:57

your pineal gland moving from a

53:59

shriveled
