Spirit doesn’t operate like humans do, and so the brain is important for deciphering and interpreting the messages Spirit give us. Without the two, brain and Spirit, working in harmony, there is no knowing.

It’s also the brain’s job to protect while Spirit guides. Often times, Spirit may guide us into situations outside of our comfort zones. Our brain treats this guidance as a threat and starts to give you any reason that will make you change your mind and not do what Spirit is telling you. This doesn’t mean the brain is bad. It just needs clarification from you that Spirit’s guidance is not a threat.

Once we have the two working together, we have knowing, and we can use this for better discernment, and for implementing better boundaries.

Remember, knowing doesn’t come from anyone else. It’s purely us and the Divine. And it's okay if no one agrees with your knowing. This is a personal cultivation and you never have to share this with anyone if that's your wish. Operate in your highest and best, and respect others. Everything else should be gravy from there.
