INNATE WISDOM - THE IMPORTANCE OF TRUSTING IT

Since the dawn of time, everything in our world has taken the natural course of things. Everything seemed to happen so naturally, beautifully, and with ease. If we look into nature, we learn that no effort is needed for everything to happen. From the formation of a bud through the bloom of a flower. Similar to nature is human nature. 

The arrival of a newborn is natural, beautiful and perfectly aligned. Human beings come to this world in a marvellous way that seems to be full of wisdom. The development process of a human being is miraculous in itself and coming to the world is naturally happening. Human beings are "guided" to move along with their life journey. Newborns do not learn how to breathe. They already know how to do it the second they "step" into the world. Then, they continue their journey with the help of their mother. Even if their life needs to be sustained, they seem to have an innate wisdom that our minds cannot comprehend, especially during the first years of their lives.

We are so amazed when babies reach a new milestone. They are using their innate wisdom to navigate through their new life. We are thrilled by their progress (when they turn on their bellies; when they sit up; when they crawl; when they stand up for the first time; when they walk). All the stages of their new life come so naturally. We cannot even wait to witness all these experiences! 

With time passing, we see that innate wisdom is gradually replaced with the need for constant help from exterior factors. Reaching adulthood, we start to question ourselves and try to understand things but sometimes can be quite a challenge. 

What if, instead of relying on external factors to do things, we try more to rely on our innate wisdom? Turn back a little bit to the time when you were so courageous to crawl, stand up and discover the world. All those beautiful milestones that you accomplished when we were very young were done by using your innate wisdom. You should access it more and more for all your present life experiences. 

How did we manage to act upon our life experiences using our wisdom? How did we use all that was given to us when we came to this world?

Our bodies function perfectly by themselves. We do not have to force anything on them. We just have to trust it! We breathe, we move, and we do things naturally because our bodies know how to do things naturally.

Some things are learned throughout our lives, but every time we learn something, we use our innate wisdom. This is how we resolved and achieved things. Things get more complicated because we lose trust in ourselves. We start to believe that things are not possible and we often forget all we have achieved until the present moment.

Life as a whole came with an innate wisdom, I believe. Life is a wonderful journey that offers millions of possibilities to do things ourselves. Human beings create beautiful and marvellous things. All that is possible because we rely on our innate wisdom. Let's try to access it more!

When we are confronted with an experience where we have to make a decision, if we listen to our inner voice, we feel is the best thing to do. If we start to question ourselves and our decision-making, we are putting ourselves in a difficult position. We can easily be guided to step on a road that we do not want to follow.

Try to rely on yourself more and less on external factors. Trust your instinct and keep on making decisions which YOU think are best for you. If the outcome is not what you wanted, ask yourself: "Did I make the best decision for myself?" When the outcome is opposite of what you expected, try to learn from your experience. Focus more on what needs to be changed so the outcome is favourable to you.

Our wisdom needs to be given more credit and should be taken as a valuable guide to doing things better in our daily lives. Take time to reflect on your daily experiences and try to see if you used more of your wisdom and less of external factors. Document your experiences using a pen and paper. Listen to your thoughts, write them down and read through them. Your words of wisdom will be revealed to you more and more if you take the time to put your pen to paper. 

You will be able to see things clearly and you will "print" new words of wisdom. Keep in mind that human beings are unique. Their unique creativity brings a lot of beauty to the world because they dare to use their innate wisdom. We all have to dare to access more of our wisdom to feel better and to trust more in our life journey.

When you are connected with yourself, you can connect easily with your innate wisdom. Find a safe place where you can freely express your thoughts. My advice is to be out in nature. First, to clear your mind and breathe the much-needed fresh air and then, to connect with yourself more. Nature’s wisdom is the first thing we can rely on to see our own. Once we see its wisdom, we begin to trust our own.

We are a part of nature and we are the best version of ourselves when we connect with it. As Albert Einstein said: " Look deeply into nature and then you will understand all things better."

The same thing can be referred to us. I say: "Look deeply into your innate wisdom and you will understand and live your life better."
