Empower With Laura

  Good morning, Followers,     As an Enneagram Coach and Forgiveness Coach Student, part of the process of learning to "live in the solution" and "on life's terms" is to bring up what we have silenced. One of our greatest internal gifts and compasses to guide us is our "intuition".  A basic definition of "intuition" found on psychologytoday Intuition is   the ability to understand something instinctively, without any need for conscious reasoning or an explanation.

It's the biggest source of my personal addictions and not feeling "enough".

Things I can do to help myself feel less lonely.

Freedom from the prison you find yourself held captive by. Freedom from the weight of the baggage you are carrying around. Freedom from the poison of the resentment you are ingesting. Freedom from the limitations you place on your life by orchestrating your life around making someone pay or avoiding them. Freedom from the emotional energy that you constantly spend on PAIN, SUFFERING, HATE, JEALOUSY, GUILT, BLAME, SHAME, or SELF-LOATHING. THE First STEP is to MAKE a DECISION that IT's WORTH...
