Introduction

Welcome to the
Wild Universe Within

Your inner world is a creative, expressive, and deeply intelligent universe, providing you with guidance in each moment of the day. Think of each biological system as a galaxy, each organ as a planet, and each breath as a circulation of the sacred lifeforce that nourishes the whole. Imagine your gut instinct is like the moon, moving in cyclessome days feeling so potent and powerful, other days almost out of reach, but always there, orbiting and creating an inner foundation as you walk your Souls wild path. Picture your intuitive heart as a suna warm and constant presence, the center of your inner universekeeping you sustained, guided, loved, and flawlessly in tune with the present moment. Imagine the psychic insights that fall into your mind as starssome brighter than others, all of them precious celestial bodies of informationsparking the light within you as they open you to new thoughts, ideas, and awareness.

This is the universe within, the unlimited magic of your being. As you grow in intuitive self-awareness, youll get to know intimately the untamed wisdom of your heart, the inconceivable strength of your Soul, the sensual intelligence of your body, and the brilliant complexity of your mind.

What does it mean to be called by your intuition? It means to gently and consistently pay conscious attention to your inner intelligence and be guided by it. Thats what this book is all about. The wise world within you is calling to you in every moment; its up to you to make the connection, listen, and honor it.

Living according to the call of intuition is both liberating and empowering. It asks you to surrender what isnt meant for you and trust what is. It calls you to give up the need to control life and embrace the act of co-creation. Its finding flow where there was once force. Its seeking truth over perfection or being right. Its allowing the wordless, loving wisdom within to guide you along your journey. Honestly, its an imperfect, messy, unmapped route, but, all the same, its wildly magnificent, fulfilling, abundant, and worthwhile.

As your intuitive heart moves you forward toward whats best for you, your instinctive gut is pulling you away from what isnt aligned with your highest good, and your insightful brain is opening to creative wisdom. These three wisdom guidesinstinct, intuition, and insighthave a unique place in your body, mind, and spirit. Knowing how they guide you in their distinct ways will bring a powerful new depth to your self-awareness. And while your wisdom may seem invisible, know with certainty that its alive, tangible, present, and accessible within your being.

The Unfolding of This Book

Ive been curious about self-empowerment my whole life. As a highly intuitive and stubbornly independent being, Ive made it my quest to learn from countless teachers how to live my truth in ways that resonate with my Soul. Ive sat with shamanic practitioners, learned from a range of spiritual guides, found potent transformation with holistic healers, witnessed past life regressions, and journeyed to the astral plane. Ive connected with many psychics, seers, and intuitives, learned to channel information from Spirit in my own way, studied the chakra system and taught others to heal their chakras, connected with my Canadian indigenous ancestors, healed the deepest parts of my shadow self, and empowered myself with as much spiritual knowledge as I could carry. I share this with you so that you will know how deeply Ive opened to spiritual work and held nothing back in the process, and as a result I have considerable experience and compassion to draw on as I guide you toward your own inner transformation.
