Struggling to Make A Decision?

One of the most common themes in psychic readings is the struggle to make a choice or decision. People often come to me for a reading because they are seeking a broader perspective or an assessment of their situation.

Whether their struggle is about love, health, finances, career, business or relocation, I have found the answers from spirit and their guides usually fall into three categories. So, here are my top three spirit-guided recommendations for making difficult life decisions:

Take Some Time Out

Most important decisions do not require an immediate response, even of it may appear to. Take some time to clear your head and think things through. Take a walk, focus on something else, sleep on it, or even just taking a deep breath.

Studies have shown that when we are in the stress response mode we are unable to access parts of our brain that think creatively and logically. Moreover, relaxing your body and mind, and stepping away from the sense of urgency and stress response, will allow you to create space for your intuition to speak up.

Do what you can to relax so you can access those two important aspects of decision making: the problem-solving mind, and your inner guidance.

Tune Into Your Inner Wisdom

Once you have calmed down the physiological stress response you are ready to ‘tune in.’ A great way to do this is to take a deep breath and call upon the wise part of you that already knows the answer to every challenging situation.

Go within and ask that you be shown the path that is the highest and best for all involved and be open to the answers you receive. These can come immediately, or over the next few days. Pay attention and see what signs you see in the form of overheard conversations, billboards, songs on the radio, angel numbers, dreams, gut feelings, and so forth. These are many ways spirit communicates messages to us, so keep an open mind and be aware.

Every decision brings with it some good, some bad, some lessons, and some luck. The only thing that’s for sure is that indecision steals many years from many people who wind up wishing they’d just had the courage to leap ~ Doe Zantamata

Get Out Of Your Own Way

Self-sabotage can be the most challenging aspect of important decision-making. We tend to focus on the way we think things should work out, making it exceedingly difficult for us to accept anything other than that results we expect. It is important to let go of any preconceived notions and expectations.

Let go of the need to control every outcome and get out of your own way. Allow the Divine some time and space to work on your behalf. Allow the magic to enter your life. This is when miracles happen.

These simple steps to making a decision can be done over an extended period of time, or in a few brief moments. The results will be the same. Allowing yourself to partner with Spirit in all of your life decisions guarantees a win-win for all involved.
