Satisfaction

The feeling of being 'empty' but happy at the end of the day. You have used your energy correctly.

  • Radiance

Stagnation & Frustration

When you initiate things or say 'Yes' even though your gut means 'No', the engine spins out or stalls.

  • Frustration
  • Boreout
  • Resistance

Sacral Authority

Your gut decides in the now. It knows no moral reasons, only energy (on/off).

Impulse

Ask people to put yes/no questions to you instead of asking you 'open' questions ('What do you want?').

  • Insist on yes/no questions
  • Train your gut voice
  • Never initiate

Deep Insight

Your aura is open and inviting. Life comes to you. You don't have to chase. Your task is to sort things out: What gives me energy (Yes) and what robs me of it (No)?

The fear of getting stuck, and the courage to say 'No' when your gut doesn't kick in.
