Intuition 101
Every day we make decisions both large and small. Sometimes it’s obvious which path to take, and other times even after mulling over 1000 different possibilities, we still can’t confidently move forward. What if I told you that with 3 simple steps, you could skip the endless debate and get right to the solution? Think of it as a direct connection to your inner guidance. So what is it? It’s a powerful tool I like to call Stop Drop & Roll. But before we burn through the steps, we need to first understand how ego and intuition are expressed in the body.
A Course In Miracles states that the ego is what speaks first and loudest.
The ego tends to make logical statements:
"It’s a better idea to do laundry now before I go to the cafe."
"The last two times we did it that way it failed. If we do the same thing again it will fail."
"The express train is faster than the local. Since I’m late for work, I will take the express."
To differentiate which voice is actually speaking, tune into your body. If you review an idea or situation internally or with a friend, and you find yourself feeling contracted (tightness anywhere in the body–especially the gut, slight nausea or a feeling of malaise) it is a sign that the ego is speaking.
Intuition
Contrary to the ego, intuition often “speaks” without words in a gentle, loving manner that can manifest as more of a feeling than a concrete idea. You will know that you are listening to your intuition when you are feeling uplifted and calm—it’s an expansive feeling. You might sense that you are on the right path, despite being fearful of the unknown. If your intuition is speaking, your body will show it with expansion.

Inner Guidance
Now that we understand the body’s different reactions to ego and intuition, we can use this awareness to guide our decisions with Stop Drop & Roll.
Stop Drop & Roll
1. Stop (what you’re doing)
2. Drop (into your body)
3. Roll (with the feeling)
Now you are ready for the guided meditation!
Once you get the hang of it, you may not need to listen to the guided meditation. You may just be able to do all the steps above without it. For now though, enjoy this transformative daily practice.
Stick your earbuds in and watch your life transform!

“Not only are Betsy’s readings accurate and always delivered with love and practical advice, but working with her I've also become more aware and trusting of my own intuitive voice. Having led workshops with Betsy I’ve also watched her explain her work in a way that makes it super easy for people to understand, and seen people light up under her loving guidance.”

— Gala Darling
“Unbelievably grateful for booking a reading with Betsy. It was one of the most profound experiences of my life. Not only did she pick up on what I later confirmed to be a gluten allergy before I even said anything, but she was also able to tap into and understand exactly what my situation was and provide helpful insight.”

“Betsy was really amazingly on point in so many ways! This was the most eye-opening psychic reading I've ever received. There is a family mystery she talked about (from 100 yrs ago) that she brought up that included details not even my closest relatives are privy to. She also gave me life-changing tools (meditation, visualization, etc). This was no ordinary reading.”
— Kelsea Woods
“From the moment we first connected on the phone, Betsy’s light and vibrant energy brought me into such a safe and open place to receive. In our session, Betsy was able to tap into my energy and connect to my higher self providing such validation and tools as to how to move forward. Her ease in taking time to explain and make sure her messages resonated was amazing. All through each step of the reading and beyond. Betsy made sure I had the tools to understand and take action to make changes in my own life. Vastly empowering, I would recommend a session with Betsy to anyone!”
