Challenged By Obstacles

Intuitive Reading from the I Ching or Book of Change: Challenged by Obstacles.

Rheanni Lightwater - Obstacles on the Road to Freedom
Rheanni Lightwater, Reiki Master Teacher & Feng Shui Consultant

In this intuitive reading, Soul Resources offers a variety of SOS formulas and Transformation Games using the Intuitive Learning Circles and the I Ching to offer constructive advice when we’re challenged by OBSTACLES. 

The I Ching

I Ching Workbook - R. L. WingThe original intent of the I Ching was based on an Eastern philosophy of observation and marking changes in natural and human events. Through many centuries and contributions from shamans and master teachers, including Lau Tzu and Confucius, the Book of Change was developed into a full philosophy for applying beneficial human conduct to varying circumstances. The Art of Feng Shui is part of that philosophy. We use The I Ching Workbook, by R.L. Wing, Random House, NYC, NY, 1979 as our preferred translation.


The I Ching Energy ~

Throughout much of late spring and summer, the I Ching energy flow for the United States was in a general state of DANGER, Hexagram #29. Then, on July 21st, the full moon ushered in a surprisingly active flow pattern of CHANGING (Hexagram #49) that opened up a series of unexpected opportunities and positive energy to make significant advances towards freedom.

Now, the energy has gone through a series of CONTRADICTIONS and moved into the flow of #39 OBSTACLES. As a part of this path we have chosen, we are challenged by a massive wave of collective karma that needs to be met with courage and realistic thinking. Extravagant flights of fancy and wishful thinking are being crushed by the realities facing us. Although the OBSTACLES are daunting, the I Ching offers some useful guidance:

“In all worldly paths, OBSTACLES appear naturally throughout the course of time. In matters of power and politics, obstructions must be overcome as they arise if you are to continue on your way. The correct approach requires a certain amount of cunning, for you must either organize a following or align yourself with established leadership in order to prepare an assault. In business concerns, now is an excellent time to hire those who can help you. Or perhaps you should consider joining forces with another. Look for qualities of leadership in these people, qualities that can surmount OBSTACLES standing in the way of longterm objectives.

A more conscientious approach to social matters is required now. The ability to be in the right place at the right time has never been more useful. If you have the opportunity to join with others who inspire you or can help you with your endeavors, do so. Also, turn your attention inward in social situations and notes those OBSTACLES you create for yourself.

Many of your external OBSTACLES are, in fact, internally generated. Whether you create them in the process of acting out internal conflicts, or instinctively choose paths fraught with certain difficulties, they must nevertheless be overcome. These struggles will take place within the Self. Often referred to as inhibitions, such OBSTACLES will block your progress. Yet if you focus your awareness on them and persevere in constructive and positive thoughts, you will experience great good fortune as your developing character strengthens and prepares itself.” ~ Hexagram #39 OBSTACLES, The I Ching Workbook by R. L. Wing, Random House, NYC, NY, 1979

The whole purpose of studying the I Ching in the first place is to help us recognize different life flows, learn how to use them and plan appropriately, so that we may cooperate with the planet and each other more effectively. Hopefully, our study will help us unite and make effective plans when we are challenged by the OBSTACLES we face.

Understanding the Larger Picture ~

There are a lot of hidden aspects about how we interact with ourselves, each other and the planet that are being processed within a patriarchal lens or mindset. The status quo is understandably the framework that our habits, perceptions and beliefs are built around. However, the New Paradigm that we’ve entered requires us to wake up about how unconscious patterns and self destructive habits are poisoning our ability to create Common Ground for the Common Good. 

Air - Todays Intuitive Reading
Archetypal Energy of Air

Since we’re no longer being governed by the Water based Element of the Piscean Age, a profusion of fast moving chi’ no longer has the buffer of Water to smooth, soothe, complicate or slow down events. We are now fully in the Age of Aquarius where the primary movement of life force comes through the Element of Air, which is much faster, lighter and quick to change.

In this paradigm shift, the Law of Karma or cause and effect is amplified and very quick to manifest. That means that the old “rules” about fighting – attack and defense – no longer work and are actually pulling us deeper into the chaos and confusion that we so wish to avoid.

By engaging in emotionally based behaviors such as casting spells, spewing curses, or organizing movements based on hatred for the other, we continue to manifest our own OBSTACLES that are increasingly more abrupt, irrational and “in our face”. This is called karmic backlash and will continue to be a profound source of the many OBSTACLES we’ll meet in the coming months.

Is it possible to find more productive ways to organize your own intentions and energy so that something more peaceful and prosperous can happen?

If you can manage to stay present and centered within yourself, you’ll have a much better chance of determining what’s actually best for you. By objectively observing what’s working and what’s not, you’ll build the courage to choose differently – to stand up for yourself so you can take genuinely productive actions without all the karmic backlash. The keys here are to develop self-care habits that strengthen good boundaries, balance and stability.

Meeting Obstacles with The Chinese Zodiac

2024 is the Year of the Yang Wood Dragon in the Chinese Zodiac.

Positive Qualities: Energetic. Confident. Ambitious. Intelligent. Generous.
Challenging Qualities: Unstable. Intolerant. Lack of persistence. Unrealistic.

The Dragon’s Feng Shui Mandala below can give you a sense of what the archetype of the Dragon is about and how it may influence you. If you’re interested, gently contemplate its center and relax. When you’re ready, ask yourself these questions and journal the answers that come:

“What is the most important thing I can focus my energy and effort on during this time in the Year of the Dragon?”

Todays Intuitive Reading - The Year of the Dragon

“What is the direction? Why is that important?
How can I utilize the energy of the Dragon to my best advantage?
Are there things I’m wasting time on? Something else I need to know?
Is there something important for me to do?
If so, can I tell what it is and how I would best go about doing it?”

Allow your intuition to come forward and bring guidance from your innermost Self. 


Invite the Dragon archetype and his dynamic energy to advise you as you navigate change and the OBSTACLES in your own life. 

Yang Wood Dragon - Todays Intuitive ReadingA) Any new path can have distractions, dangers and opportunities that you cannot see clearly. However Dragon warns, “This is too important a time to get bogged down or fall into a hole. Gather your courage and ability to see straight. If you need extra help, call on my energy and confidence. I have plenty to spare.”

Clear Up Your Blind Spots.

B) Transforming change that’s motivated by Joy and Freedom, rather than fear and dread is a wonderful and worthwhile pursuit. Especially when you’ve met with OBSTACLES that make it easy for old habits and conditioning to sneak back in and sabotage any progress that’s been made. Dragon wants to share some important insights about how to keep Joy in the forefront of your mind. Keep Going For Joy – Rather than Perfection.

C) The current OBSTACLES might ensnare you into taking actions that aren’t in your best long term interests. Keep yourself out of trouble’s way by using your extra-intuitive senses. Develop Precognition and Stay Out of Trouble.

D) Finally, there may be others who are threatening you or trying to erode your  confidence. If someone is getting to you, get them out of your space immediately: Ground in the Truth and Your Power.


What kind of advice is recommended when we are challenged by OBSTACLES?

Once we ask for something we’ve never had before and take action on it, the Universe presents us with all the reasons why we haven’t been able to manifest it before. Past karma, both collective and individual is likely behind many of the OBSTACLES we’re now facing.

Clear Boundaries

Setting Clear Boundaries for a Busy Mind

What can you do to help yourself when you’re unable to focus on important tasks that really need to get done? Is your line of thinking clear? Has someone or something gotten under your skin and you can’t seem to let go? Clear boundaries may be the answer.

Clear BoundariesWithout strong boundaries, thoughts and emotions can pass back and forth between people without their awareness. When left unchecked, this type of attachment can go underground and contribute to sudden and mysterious illnesses, mental confusion, issues with prosperity or chronic states of overwhelm.

It’s a valuable skill to know how to close the doors or energy pathways at will. This Mind Exercise can help you learn how to consciously set clear boundaries and close off those pathways.

This visual meditation from our SOS Resolve Ebook provides a quick framework for recovering mental balance and refocusing attention. Going through a quick  “game” calms the emotional centers of your brain and opens up new neural pathways for self-awareness and clear boundaries, which significantly reduces stress and increases clarity.

Use this Mind Exercise when you are:RESOLVE for Clear Boundaries

~ Feeling scattered or out of sync
~ Easily triggered and need better boundaries
~ Experiencing distress or separation anxiety
~ Worried, agitated or anticipating hardship
~ Feeling pressured or compulsive
~ Unable to meditate or sit still
~ Obsessed with a particular person or situation.

Directions: Confirm this is the best exercise for you with the RESOLVE symbol.

Mind Exercises for Clear BoundariesFind a quiet place if possible, where you won’t be disturbed for about twenty minutes. Follow the sequence of symbols while you read their accompanying instructions. Gaze gently at each Circle for about two minutes. A longer or shorter time may be necessary. Let yourself breathe and relax as much as possible.

Don’t worry if the images move around or change in any way. That just means the Circles are working and that your mind and body are relaxing.

 


Mind Body Integration

Mind Body IntegrationThe brain and body communicate through different channels when a part of you is crossed over the center of your body. Therefore, you will want to look at each Circle both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body.

If you feel resistant or stuck, cross or uncross a hand or foot over the midline of your body and go back to the Circle, breathing patiently. See if your thinking starts to move again. Let negative self-talk go by breathing through it Just breathe deeply and relax.


After you’ve finished going through the entire exercise, give yourself some time to let it integrate. A quiet mind and light heart will change your perspective and make it easier to accomplish your goals.

 

Step 1. Balance

Begin by consciously breathing in on the count of three and slowly exhaling on the count of five. Do that three or four times while you gaze softly at the Circle. It’s helpful if you can breathe in through your nose.

Clear Boundaries - Balance Chakra

Continue breathing and bring your awareness to your tailbone.

 

Step 2. Calm

Keep breathing with your belly soft and relaxed.
Let your shoulders drop.

Gaze softly at this Circle and imagine you can turn down the feelings or thoughts that are turned up too high, just like the volume on a radio.

 

Step 3. Centering

See if you can gather your awareness and connect it – like all the lines that come together into the center of this symbol.

Imagine you can close up unhealthy energy channels between you and any interference that’s coming from the outside.

Stay with it until you feel more centered with beneficial energy flowing through you.

 

Step 4. Protection

Now, gaze softly at this Circle and use it to close all holes or harmful pathways that have been left wide open, like too many tabs that have been left open on your computer. Affirm to yourself:

“I close the pathways that lead to distractions, disturbances and interference.”

“All holes are sealed and healed.”

“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”

 

Step 5. Beauty

Now that the pathways are closed, you can shift your attention away from the negative and turn towards more positive input. Breathe in again and exhale slowly.

Take your time and let this Circle help you call the most majestic scenes into your mind that you can imagine.

Notice how your body responds and relaxes into the experience.

 

Step 6. Expansion

Turn your attention to your breathing again and how calming it is.
You can sense the steady rhythm of your heart.
The gentle expansion and contraction of your lungs.
Breathing in and letting go. The space around you is relaxing too.

Emotional Calm

 

Step 7. Letting Go

There may be some especially sticky energies that don’t seem to want to let go. Let this Key help you neutralize interfering energies and detach from them.

Like a healing balm, imagine that a loving coat of peace and comfort is pouring down over you.

Step 8. Intention

Now you’re ready to gently turn your mind to what’s in your best interests. What are your true priorities?

Slow down and take your time.

 

Step 9: Grounding and Coherence

This Circle will help your energy get organized and grounded. Put both your feet on the floor, place your palms on the inside of your knees and keep breathing until you feel planted.

Then, visualize a wheel spinning out any discordant energy that’s still hanging on and causing problems. When you can release excess energy, it’s much easier to think more clearly and feel like yourself again.

 

Step 10. Compassion

Imagine with each relaxing new breath that you can fill your heart with renewed understanding and compassion – that includes caring for yourself with clear boundaries.

 

Step 11. Decision

Your well-being is important. Are the any new decisions would you like to make about it?
Here’s a few suggestions:

“I decide to be loyal to myself.”
“It’s okay to have strong and clear boundaries.”

“It’s genuinely joyful to have a quiet mind and a light heart.”

 

Step 12. Resolution

Make a commitment to stay centered and true to yourself.

“I keep my own energy contained for my own protection.”
“I easily eject and deflect harmful thoughts, interference or expectations.”

“I resolve to create and maintain clear boundaries.”

 

Step 13. Nourishment

Before you get on with your day, see if there’s any helpful nutrition that would support you. Let this Circle help you tune into natural healing energy.

Are there any vegetables, fruits, herbs, teas or other healing foods that come to mind? Anything else?

 

Step 14. Completion

Finish by closing any remaining openings to the noise and distractions of the external world.

“All holes are sealed and healed.”
“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”

What does your Soul advise you to do now?

Congratulations! Now that you’ve finished, give yourself some time to let it integrate. A quiet mind and light heart changes your perspective and makes it easier to accomplish your goals.

Root Chakra

Root Chakra Balancing to Stabilize Your Foundation

This mind exercise has been put together to help us stabilize and get support for our lower bodies and more “feminine” energies through the First or Root Chakra.

Our root chakra governs the physical body, our instincts and the assumptions we have about life. Its color is red and is located at the bottom or root of your pelvis. Free flowing energy in your 1st Chakra is essential to generating healthy life energy and having a strong connection to Mother Earth.

Root Chakra - Reiki Chakra KeysGaze softly at the Root Chakra Key, then ask yourself:

“Do I have a strong foundation for creating physical health?” 

“Am I able to maintain a stable connection with the Earth?

If not, can you pick up any impressions as to why that might be? You may want to make a note of what comes up.

“Am I having trouble finding support for my projects?”

“Am I generating creative or destructive fire?”

Are violent or abusive experiences interfering with my health or vitality?

The health of your Root chakra could be involved with any of these issues. It’s quite easy for toxins and poisonous energies to build up in this energy center and sabotage your ability to manifest.

Continue  your inquiry with this Intuitive Learning Circle from Gifts from the Rainforest:

Do you feel that you’re entangled with others?

Does it feel like you’re out of balance because of changes in your environment?

Or, are you being affected by poisons or negative energies?

If so, you can go through this exercise for some re-organization and relief.

Mind Body Integration

Mind Body IntegrationFor best results, go through this Mind Exercise gazing softly at each Circle both crossed over the midline of the body and uncrossed so that the correction is more complete.

 

Bring your Root Chakra online.

Activated Chakra System for the New ParadigmBegin with this Reiki Chakra Key for the 1st or Root Chakra. It’s also known as the “Base Chakra” and for good reason. It holds the foundational structure for your energetic and physical health.
When it’s out of balance, it can hold space for violence, abuse, illness and destructive energies. That’s why it’s so important to keep it cleansed and functioning in right relationship with the Earth.

As you softly gaze at this Key, get connected and balanced. Use this affirmation to help you:
“I connect with and bring my attention to my Base Chakra.”

The Base or Root Chakra

 

Clear violent energies, illness and debris from the 1st Chakra. 

Use the natural vibration and color of the Root Chakra to clear away toxic energies. If you are a Reiki practitioner, this is an ideal opportunity to beam Reiki into the symbol. These positive affirmations will help:

“My Root Chakra is open and clearing out toxic energies.” 

Soul Star for the Root chakra

“Destructive energies and karmic entanglements are leaving and going to the Light.”

Please note: In the Intuitive Learning Circle method, we always send what needs to be cleared to the Light, never into the Earth.
She already has too many destructive energies to handle now.
Let’s respectfully help the Earth bring herself back into balance by planting seeds of happiness, health and life instead!

 

Establish an intention to create healthy, proactive protection in your foundation and Root Chakra.

Use this Intuitive Learning Circle  to help you gather up the needed unconscious information.

“I ask for assistance from my Soul to create a healthy structure for protection and connection with Mother Earth.”

 

Integrate protection and communication from the New Paradigm.

Adapt to the new energies by using this Soul Prayer Chart for Divine Protection to help you close down harmful energy channels from the past.

“I close down all harmful energy channels from the past or from  _________.”

Once they’re closed, you’ll find that your chakra centers are more open and receptive to the generative life force (chi) that is available in the New Paradigm. You can “install” this symbol like an adaptive filter for the lighter, quicker energy of Air.

Then, visualize opening up to generative energy channels that connect with your Soul and help you to communicate clearly.

“I connect with the  generative flow of chi’ to successfully manifest and communicate.”

 

Bring your Balance Chakra into the mix.

This Chakra is located right on the on the tip of the tailbone and regulates balance within the Tao (the Underlying Principles of Nature) and the dynamics of Yin and Yang energies.
It has a lot to do with keeping us stable, especially when dealing with difficult or threatening situations.
Let the Balance Key help you stabilize and make a strong connection with your First Chakra.

“I am balanced and can stabilize even in the midst of conflict.”

Install the adaptive filter for Divine Protection.

 

Release attachments and the damage they cause.

Because of the sheer amount of tragic and heart breaking events we’re encountering everyday, we need to address the possibility that our energy is probably damaged and/or struggling with attachments.
Use this Soul Star Detachment Key to relax and meditate on for as long as you like. Like a healing balm, imagine that a loving coat of peace and comfort is pouring down over you.

“My energy system is easily and effectively neutralizing interfering energies and detaching from them.”

 

Correct reversals and blockages.

When our system are under extreme stress, the chakras and/or meridians can start running in reverse or shut down entirely.
Relax and let this symbol help you make corrections to problems including allergic reactions, reversals and misdirections.

“I repair any glitches, holes or blockages in my energy system.”

Take all the time you need to let the energy smooth out to where you can begin to feel the energy of your Soul coming through.

 

Make sure your Soul is in charge of this balance and your healing.

Confirm that you’re using your own Soul vibration to construct your new foundation based on energetic autonomy and integrity.
Allow the energy of your Soul to come in and fill your consciousness with its life giving vibration. While gazing at this Soul Prayer Chart, think about physical activities that you genuinely enjoy doing. Then ask yourself:

“What color, feeling or vibration comes to mind?”

This is your Soul Color. Let it fill your body, your mind and into your aura.

 

Clarify your Soul signature. 

Just like when we sign our names, each of us has an energy signature that identifies us and whatever we have created. If that signature is marred, obscured or out of balance, we become susceptible to increased projections, confusion, fraud and mistaken identities.

Don’t let that happen to you. Clear and balance your energy signature to deflect these issues with this chart.  Visualize erasing any false markings or “graffiti” out of your energy field.

“I clear away any energy signatures that are not mine.” 

“I know who I am. My signature is distinct from the signature of others.”

 

Connect with the Earth Chakra.

Activated Chakras - Earth and Root ChakraThe third energy center to include in this balance is the Earth Chakra, located directly below your feet. This is your natural energetic connection point to Mother Earth.
The old foundation has used the Earth primarily as a commodity to be exploited or as a dumping ground. Repair your personal power by establishing a healthy connection with this Earth Chakra Key:

“I activate and empower a respectful Earth connection.”

 

Again, strengthen your connection and communication channels through the Divine Protection chart.

 

Having a Clear Root Chakra Works with Your Agreements to Help You Create Vitality and Healthy Support.

That includes the contracts or agreements around support, stability, strength and vitality. Look deeply into the Circle and consider the people, the places and the organizations that could be affecting you in a negative way. Those relationships may not be over, but surely they are going to change! Free up your energy with this Circle by letting go of those agreements.

“I let go of all Soul Agreements that are complete – over and done with.  I allow the necessary changes to take place.”

Release sub-conscious agreements to hold space for dangerous or violent energies. Clear out destructive entanglements that contribute to illness and low energy. See completed debts, vows and resentments burn up like old contracts in a beautiful, violet flame.

You may want to surrender your involvement with a  project,  a person, an organization or a special place that’s no longer serving your needs. Surrender it by releasing that Soul contract into the fire.

“I have completed my experience with you. It was an important experience and it’s time now to be done with it.”

Release Agreements with the old paradigm or status quo.

When these chakras are unified and communicating with each other, it’s possible to access deep seated cultural and religious agreements that keep our bodies enslaved to the status quo.
Look deeply into the the Circle and release agreements that are harmful to your wellbeing and vitality:

“I detach from destructive foundations and energy patterns.”

If you’re a Reiki Practitioner, beam the Distant Healing Symbol into the Circle to help you unlock the chains clear them out. Visualize them collapsing like old structures crumbling into nothingness.
Continue until the space is cleared.

 

Connect with a map of creating common ground for the common good.

Now, you’re free to organize your new foundation into this template for the new paradigm based on common ground for the common good.
Meditate on this template for a few moments and when you’re ready, gently lower your new “roots” to  connect with the elements of this map.

Connect with the communication channels of Divine Protection to help you stabilize this new foundation.

 

Integrate your new foundation with your Essence at the Third Chakra.

It’s important that your foundation get integrated with your “home base” template located in your Solar Plexus Chakra.

Relax with your 3rd Chakra at your solar plexus (the area where your ribs go up in the front).
Your Essential Self is most efficiently located there to help you manifest, create happiness and maintain health.
When your Essential Self is clear about where it’s new foundation is and how to communicate with it, you’ll have a much easier time getting grounded and staying that way.

Installing the Divine Protection filter in the solar plexus will help the information and energy channels get integrated for the benefit of your “gut instincts.”

 

Clear debris out of your Solar Plexus Chakra.

Use the Soul Star for the 3rd Chakra to clear out any old energies or interference from that area.
It may take some time, so go ahead and relax into it using Reiki to assist. Be sure to send them to the Light as well.

 “I expel toxic energies and old junk from my Third Chakra and send them to the Light.”

 

Repair and/or strengthen hara lines for improved communication and healing

The hara lines are like tiny webs of light that connect the chakras throughout your body. Sometimes they’re broken or damaged because of trauma, illness, toxicity or sudden changes in the sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight). This Circle gives extra energy to the hara lines that are involved with this balance.

“I repair and strengthen my hara lines.”
“My chakras are connected with my Soul properly through a golden web of light.”

This Circle also helps us navigate where we are and to organize our consciousness around being present. “I am inside of my body. Everything else is outside.”

 

Clear away the shadows with Divine Light.

Beam Reiki into this Soul Prayer Chart to radiate Universal Light and Love throughout your energy field.
Stay with it until all heaviness and darkness has completely disappeared into the Light.

Be sure to close out this healing with the Reiki Power Symbol.
“All pathways that lead back to harm or toxic energies are
sealed and healed.”

 

Detach from any allegiances with violence and confusion.

A necessary part of protection is about making sure that we’re no longer taking in harmful substances or energies that connect us with people or places we don’t want to go anymore.
Allow this Circle to help you drop any harmful ties, cords or entanglements.

“I release all harmful connections, cords and obligations with dangerous or abusive people, organizations or situations.”

 

Embrace closure and completion.

Be sure to close out this healing with the Reiki Power Symbol.

“All pathways that lead back to harm or toxic energies are sealed and healed.”

 “I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection and intended path.”

Close the pathways both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body.

Congratulations!

You are learning to manage your energy in a conscious, balanced and nourishing way!

Now would be an excellent time to go for a walk out in Nature or exercise.

Be sure to breathe deeply!

Develop Determination with Jaguar

Develop Determination and Courage with Jaguar

Develop Determination with Jaguar

If you have chosen Jaguar to be your Guide…

“Your creativity and special talents will benefit from an influx of courage and trust in yourself. It’s time to stand tall and unflinching, regardless of what others are saying…

Ask:  Are you accessing open-hearted courage? In what ways do you need to protect yourself and stand up for what you believe in? Reclaim your courage, strength and determination and apply it to your true heart’s desire.” ~ Gifts from the Rainforest by Rheanni Lightwater

What Process Is Best for Me – Right Now?

Balancing with Plants SpiritsMany of you have asked,  “There’s so many Games and Exercises here in the Intuitive Learning Circle – how do I know which one is right for me?

Since we’re here to help you develop your intuition, it’s only natural that we would come up with a simple & fun way to decide – using your intuition!

First of all, it’s true that we have quite a few self-healing offerings, so below you’ll find a list of games that pertain to Developing Determination through the Jaguar.

Jaguar Medicine

There are 5 categories to choose from ~

I: Cosmos
II: Family
III: Environment
IV: Livelihood and
V: Self 

Each category has a selection of games listed underneath which are numbered 1, 2 and 3.

The first step is to take a moment and think about what’s going on for you and then look at Jaguar Medicine and ask your heart:

“What category would be most useful for me to look at now?”
Once you have the category number, ask yourself:
“Which number in that category represents the best self healing process for me right now – or is the best place to start?”

Remember to take the very first number that comes to you, because that is your Inner Wisdom speaking or your intuition. If more than one number comes up, write them all down in the order they came to you.
Once you have your number, scroll down the list and check out that process. You might be surprised at what you chose, because intuition doesn’t always makes sense at first. However, I suggest that you trust your first response and explore the exercise anyway. See if it pertains to your situation and feels right.
This is the intuitive way to determine which exercise is best for you right now!

Suggestion: Early on in your journey with Jaguar, go through Open Your Heart and Make Friends to develop a truly co-operative relationship!

Of course, if you want, you can always get help with Rheanni if you want more private coaching. Her contact info can be found at the bottom of this page…
