INTUITION


Mona Lisa Schulz (1998). Awakening Intuition: 

                                          Using your Mind-Body Network 

                                          for Insight and Healing


Schulz has her M.D. and PhD in neuroscience and is a "medical intuitive"--with just a person's name and age, on the phone, she can provide specific, detailed, and accurate information about the person's state of health (physiologically, psychologically, and relationally) by "viewing" the person's entire body (inside and out).

this book provides principles, research, and LOTS of personal case studies with individuals she has worked with--i was somewhat disappointed that only the last chapter was devoted to "how to" use your intuition as a medical intuitive.


the basic steps in doing an intuitive reading for self or others--one quiets the frontal lobe via relaxation and/or visualization, focus on the person, treat everthing (words, images, thoughts, body sensations, memories, feelings...) as DATA...write it all down...then later, sort out what is authentic intution and what is projection (one's own "stuff")

we are continuously receiving information via body, feelngs, brain, and dreams...thus, we are all potentially intutives...being intuitive is paying attention to this information and discovering the intuitive messages that light up like the dashboard of a car, telling us, "pay attention," something needs to change.

SPIRITUAL SOLUTIONS Wayne Dyer (2003). There's a Spiritual Solution to Every Problem. Dyer earned a Doctorate of Education in Guidance and Counseling, and is a prolific author. His first book that i read in the 1970's, Your Erroneous Zones, profoundly influenced my thinking as a teen.  The theme of this book is that there is a spiritual solution to every problem, that problems are illusions created in the mind by incorrect thinking, and that the solution to these mental problems is to change our thinking in light of the spirit (defined as an energy/intelligence that is the source of all life, i.e., God). Some might call this "spiritual bypassing," ignoring the body in favor of the mind and spirit. The first half of the book is lessons from Patanjali's Yoga Sutras. Dyer suggests that low frequency is associated with the "negative" and faster frequency with the "positive" [for me, at least musically, lower frequencies don't imply negative emo...

TURN ON Timothy Leary (1965, 1999). Turn On, Tune In, Drop Out Leary was a University Professor at Harvard who is best know for his experiments with LSD. The book is part lectures, part interviews, and part essays. Given all the media hype about Leary, i was surprised at how much common sense i encountered, and how much he speaks to learning, hope, and love.  He begins with a chapter on how to start your own religion (to invoke the rights of the first amendment in US law) with family and friends, a tribe of people living together in community with their own laws...a place where sacrament is consumed (it need not be LSD, but anything that is spiritually meaningful to the community, something that binds the community together in ceremony)...a place preferably in nature where one feels protected and nurtured.  The BIG ADVICE is to drop out of society's robot world/mind, and turn on to God/Goddess (the Spirit), nature, and the body and mind, and tune in (dropping back into socie...

BODY WISDOM  Therese Bertherat (1989).  The body has its reasons: Self-awareness                                                           through conscious movement.  Berherat takes us on a personal journey in learning body wisdom /awareness using Ehrenfred's method which is radically different than the medical model/method she learned at University. The story unfolds as "sessions" of practices, and the end of the book reveals several "preliminaries" on how to cultivate body wisdom. Among the many practical lessons are:      pause after exhaling to let the body use oxygen before inhaling again--this allows the              body to rest/relax with every breath.      because all parts of the body are integrated, working with one par...
