Episode 9: Authority

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the Living My Human Design podcast we will be discussing the Authorities in Human Design.  Authority is how you become aligned with your Human Design and how you make decisions.  We have been taught to make decisions with the mind, but the minds job is collecting information and experiences.  It is for comparing things and contemplation.  It is not for making decisions.In Human Design, we learn to make decisions with the body.  The ind is invested in your Identity and personality, but the authority is invested in your energy and your souls intentions.  What actually moves us through life on our unique path is the brilliance of our body, the form we inhabit.We are all designed with a unique way to make decisions with our body consciousness that helps put us back on, or keep us on our current path, empowering us to live life authentically from our own personal truth.Questions to Contemplate: When in the past have you made a decision that felt good and gave you the results you were looking for? (example of when we decided to sell the house and live in an RV)• How did your authority show up in this process?• How did you feel?  What did you see or hear or know?Now think of a time when you made a decision that didn't go so well and felt forced or made you feel stuck.• How did you mind show up in this process.  (You may have even asked yourself what was I thinking?!)• How did you feel before and after?• What did you see, hear, know?Over the next week, keep your strategy and authority in your awareness as you go through the day.• Emotional - Are you taking a little more time to sit with your decisions before saying yes or no?• Sacral - Pay attention to the sound that bubbles out when people ask you to commit your energy to something• Splenic- what sensations are you feeling in your body as you make a decision• Ego- Are you trusting your voice?  Listen to what you say when you let the mind go• Self Directed - Will the decision bring you joy? Will it get you closer to the direction you are heading• Mental Projected- Who is your go-to person for bounding your thoughts off of?  Does your environment feel good?• Lunar-  How does it feel to slow down?  Are you talking with your people about decisions to see what is being reflected back to you?  To gain insight on how the process is feeling.  Allow yourself time to play with your authority and experiment with it.  Be aware of the small positive changes in your external reality.  You are designed to feel good and to live the life you love!With love and Light,Nicole HooverGet your FREE Chartwww.livingmyhumandesign.com/get-your-chartFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100086590926951&mibextid=LQQJ4dInstagram@living_my_human_designSchedule an Unpackhttps://livingmyhumandesign.as.me/schedule.phpWebsite:www.livingmyhumandesign.com
