Dr. Denise McDermott and Jennifer M. Shaffer have spoken to thousands of people throughout their careers empowering them to operate from a higher awareness. Dr. McDermott believes in mental wellness and empathically “connects” with her patients utilizing psychotherapy and various tools to promote a cognitive change in the way one views themselves and their life situation. As an Intuitive, Jennifer Shaffer connects with the unseen, the nonlinear to encourage healing on a deep spiritual level. They both believe in Intuition.

Below are three examples to support you in operating from the best version of you at all times. They are simple yet powerful tools, refined throughout the years of Jennifer’s spiritual practice, designed to help you align with your higher self. It is recommended that you start utilizing these tools “Before, On or After” this workshop.

Jennifer will be giving what she refers to as “Intuitive translations,” which incorporates “Non- Linear” information. Dr. Denise McDermott will help transition that information to a “Linear” perspective in your every day lives. They both will discuss how you can get in touch with your very own intuition and what that may look like so you recognize it without any fear based emotions. Please bring 3 questions you would like to ask in the workshop. It can be personal questions or general. We just ask you to remain “Open” to this process.

1. Manage Your Energy

Everything is energy, and you are an energy being. You have an energy field that is connected to other energy fields and those fields are connected to other fields. When you feel energy moving through you as an emotion (energy in motion), it may feel like it is your own but it may be someone else’s energy that you’ve taken on as your own. Or it may be a lower vibration energy (fear, doubt, worry, anger) that isn’t in alignment with your authentic truth (love, joy, peace, abundance).

To get in touch with the energy that is moving within you constantly ask yourself (your higher self) “Who does this belong to?” Start becoming aware of any energy that doesn’t belong to you and release it by saying to your higher self, “Please release any energy that does not serve my highest good.”You can also start to bring more loving energy into your being by thinking, “Love Me,” in every interaction you have throughout the day. Allow every moment to be an adventure, rather than a lesson, and love where it’s hard to love.

2. Channel Your Inner Wisdom

Spend a few minutes a day (whenever you have a free moment), asking “What should I be doing?”, and record whatever you hear into a journal. You may want to carry a journal with you throughout the day in order to capture your thoughts in the “in between” moments of the day, or you can do this at the start of your morning. Write down in free form whatever comes to you. Allow the awareness to flow from within you down into your writing. It can be a sentence, paragraph or pages in your journal.

3. Tune Up Your Intuition

Start getting in tune with your intuition by asking questions throughout the day and allowing the answers to come to you from within you. Start off with Yes or No questions and then work your way into more detailed questions. For example:

• Should I eat this (blank)?

• Should I go running this morning?

• Should I call this client back now?

Asking these questions and acting upon the knowingness of which direction to take will strengthen your connection to your intuition, allow you to trust yourself more and help relinquish patterns of fear, doubt and worry. You will start to become the observer of your own actions, instead of becoming entrenched in any and all situations.
