So… Is Your Higher Self the Same as Source?

By The Artful Woman
  Not exactly. Think of it like this: Source is the origin —pure consciousness, God/Goddess/Divine Light, whatever you want to call it. It’s the everything-and-nothing energy from which all things come. Your Higher Self is your personal bridge to Source. It’s your soul in its purest form , untainted by fear, ego, or human distortion. Your Higher Self is you , just on the zoomed-out level —the version of you that remembers the full story, all lifetimes, all lessons, all missions. So: Source is the sun. Your Higher Self is the sunbeam that still holds its essence but is uniquely you . Is Your Higher Self Your Soul? Pretty much— but here's the nuance: Your soul is eternal. It’s the part of you that has lived countless lives. Your Higher Self is like the fully awakened version of your soul —the one not currently squeezed into a human body trying to pay bills and avoid family drama. When you're in human form, you're kind of like the tip of the i...

Deep Thinker, Deep Feeler: The Path to Intuition and Psychic Awareness

Image
By The Artful Woman

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been a deep thinker and a deep feeler. I analyze everything, searching for meaning beneath the surface. I don’t just experience emotions—I absorb them, sometimes so intensely that they feel overwhelming.

Because of this, I’ve never been able to watch scary or violent movies. They don’t just scare me—they stay with me. The fear, the pain, the energy of what’s happening on screen lingers long after the credits roll. It’s as if I become part of the scene, feeling what the characters feel. For years, I thought I was just overly sensitive. But then I learned something that changed everything.

Deep thinking and deep feeling often align with heightened intuition. Deep thinkers naturally analyze, reflect, and seek meaning beyond the obvious, while deep feelers experience emotions profoundly and are highly sensitive to energy. I now realize that my sensitivity isn’t just a personality trait—it’s a sign of something more. I’m an empath, but perhaps even beyond that.

The Connection Between Deep Feeling and Intuition

At first, I dismissed my experiences as simple empathy, but the more I explored, the more I recognized a deeper connection. Could my heightened awareness be something greater—something intuitive, or even psychic? Here’s why I believe so:

  1. Deep Thinking Leads to Pattern Recognition
    I constantly search for patterns—whether in people’s behaviors, life events, or my own thoughts. Intuition operates the same way, picking up on subtle connections before our logical mind catches on.

  2. Deep Feeling Enhances Emotional Awareness
    I don’t just notice emotions—I experience them. If someone is sad, even if they don’t say a word, I feel it. I sense tension in the air before an argument starts. I can walk into a room and instantly pick up on its energy. This emotional sensitivity is not just empathy—it’s intuitive perception.

  3. Empathy as a Gateway to Intuition
    Empaths don’t just understand emotions; they absorb them. But what if that ability extends beyond emotions? What if we can also pick up on thoughts, intentions, or even spiritual energy? Many intuitive and psychic people begin as empaths, and I’m beginning to believe my sensitivity is more than just emotional—it’s energetic.

  4. A Deep Connection to the Unseen
    For years, I ignored my gut feelings—only to realize later that they were right. Now, I’m learning to trust them. Because intuition isn’t just a vague feeling; it’s real, and it’s powerful.

What This Means for Me (And Maybe for You, Too)

If you:

  • Feel emotions deeply, sometimes to the point of overwhelm
  • Pick up on energies and moods without knowing why
  • Struggle with violent or intense media because it affects you on a deeper level
  • Have strong gut feelings that often turn out to be right

Then you may also be more intuitive than you realize. You might even have psychic abilities waiting to be explored.

I’m still on this journey, but one thing is clear—deep thinking and deep feeling aren’t weaknesses. They are gifts. They allow us to connect with the world in ways most people never will. They make us more aware, more in tune, and more open to the unseen.

And maybe, just maybe, they are the key to unlocking something even greater.

The Reticular Activating System: Your Brain’s Gatekeeper and Its Role in Stress and Anxiety

By The Artful Woman
Have you ever noticed how once you start thinking about buying a certain car, you suddenly see it everywhere? Or how a single negative thought can spiral into a whole cascade of worries? That’s your Reticular Activating System (RAS) at work. The RAS is a powerful network of neurons in the brainstem responsible for filtering sensory information, regulating alertness, and influencing our focus. But beyond helping us pay attention, it also plays a key role in stress, anxiety, and emotional regulation. Understanding how it works can help us manage our thoughts, emotions, and overall well-being. What is the Reticular Activating System (RAS)? The RAS is essentially your brain’s filter. Every second, your senses take in massive amounts of information, but your brain can only process a fraction of it. The RAS determines which stimuli are important and which can be ignored. It keeps you alert when necessary and helps transition between wakefulness and sleep. Here are its key functions: Regulati...

Awakening to the Divine Within: Journey of Spiritual Transformation

By The Artful Woman
  Awakening to the Divine Within: Journey of Spiritual Transformation For most of my life, I have been on a quest for understanding—of the world, of myself, and of the unseen forces that shape our existence. This journey has taken me through various teachings, practices, and experiences, each one peeling back another layer of the illusion I once thought was reality. One of the most profound realizations I’ve had is that we are more than just physical beings navigating this earthly realm. We are, in essence, spiritual beings having a human experience. But what does that truly mean? And how do we awaken to this deeper truth? The Call to Awakening Awakening is not a single event but a series of moments that shake us from our slumber. It may come through suffering, through loss, through love, or even in the quiet whispers of intuition that grow louder over time. My own awakening began as a slow unraveling—a questioning of everything I had been taught about life, success, and purpose. I...

Mesmerism vs. The Emotion Code: A Look at the Use of Magnets in Energy Healing

By The Artful Woman
During my training to become a hypnotherapist, I learned about Franz Anton Mesmer and his intriguing use of magnets in healing. Mesmer believed in a concept called "animal magnetism," a vital energy force he thought could be manipulated to restore balance in the body. His methods, though controversial, were an early exploration of the mind-body connection and the power of suggestion. Fast forward to today, and magnets are still being used in energy healing practices—most notably in The Emotion Code, a modern modality that claims to identify and release trapped emotions through muscle testing and magnetic energy. But how do these two approaches compare? While they both involve magnets, the philosophies behind them and their applications are vastly different. In this blog, I’ll explore the historical use of magnets in Mesmerism and contrast it with how magnets are used in The Emotion Code, shedding light on their similarities, differences, and what we can learn from both. Mesme...
