and the Family
our intuition to guide us to each step and to the final decision. Intuition can be activated in any number of ways, but in our family the following five reminders serve us quite nicely. It is important to get into a habit of identify- ing intuitive feelings daily until it becomes the natural means of navigating life choices. We utilize all of the reminders as they each invite intuition to surface in a unique way.
1 Feel Your Way!
This is a reminder to get quiet for a moment and feel the choice that leads you in a direction of greater peace, joy, upliftment, ease and flow. When my older daughter came to us saying that she felt she may want to give up playing soccer after nine years in the sport, we invited her to close her eyes and let us know how continuing to play on her high level travel team felt and then how creating the space to try new things felt. Her answer was astounding! While continu- ing to play made her feel heavy, anxious, and down, moving on felt
like a weight being lifted off her shoulders, lightness, and made her smile. She opened her eyes and knew her answer, and then we took the necessary steps to make the change.
2 Trust Your Vibes!
This is a reminder that we are spiritual beings able to pick up on the energy that surrounds us eas- ily and readily. We have taught our children that they are very much like radio receivers. Similar to feeling their way, we ask them to check in with their vibes regularly in regards to everything. They know that their vibes are their most valuable resource. As their independence grows, their vibes become more and more impor- tant. When dropping them off for outings with friends or as they head out on their bikes, we often remind them to stay awake and to trust their vibes.
3 Listen to Your Body!
The body provides a beautiful red light/green light navigational system that can be taught and

utilized on a daily basis. We have held many family discussions to lay the groundwork for this under- standing to become integrated in our children as a means of fol- lowing their intuition. A red light intuitive hit might be lethargy, a headache, a stomachache, low energy, fatigue, a rash, an ailment, or any health malady that comes on suddenly. We always seek to connect the red light feeling in our body with the choices we are making at the time. Likewise, a green light intuitive hit may feel like increased joy, excitement, enthusiasm, high energy, smiling, peace, a sparkle in the eye, but- terflies and an ease of previous physical symptoms or ailments. Again, it is up to us to make the physical connection to our larger reality.
4 Live True!
Authenticity is a top-priority in our family. We teach our children that the greatest gift they can offer themselves and the world at
