Video summary

The video introduces a practical method for enhancing decision-making by tuning into one's internal intuition through the lens of energy awareness. By engaging in practices such as Qigong, meditation, and Tai Chi, individuals can cultivate a heightened sensitivity to the energetic connections within their bodies and between themselves and the external world. The core lesson emphasizes that making better decisions involves feeling these energies rather than relying solely on logical analysis. This approach allows a person to test whether a specific choice will be beneficial or detrimental by observing how their body responds energetically, effectively using their physical state as a direct communication channel from the subconscious or spirit. To operationalize this intuition, the instructor presents three distinct techniques known collectively as muscle testing. The first method involves finger locking, where one creates a strong connection between hands while affirming a true statement like "My name is [Your Name]," resulting in an unbreakable hold, versus a false statement which causes the connection to weaken. A second technique is balance testing, where a person stands centered and relaxed; when asked a question, the body naturally leans forward for a positive answer or backward for a negative one. The third method is strength testing, performed with a partner who attempts to push down on an arm while the subject mentally affirms a true or false statement; congruence results in strong resistance, while incongruence leads to the arm dropping easily. These exercises train the nervous system to consistently distinguish between positive and negative energetic inputs. As one practices these methods regularly, the reliance on physical tests diminishes because the body becomes fluent in the language of energy. Eventually, a person can instantly sense whether an idea or action is aligned with their purpose without needing external validation. The video explains that positive decisions often manifest as feelings of warmth, expansion, and strength in specific chakras, such as heat rising in the heart center for loving actions or energy welling up in the solar plexus for motivated tasks. Conversely, negative influences are felt as tension, coldness, drainage of energy, or a tightening sensation in the chest. Crucially, the speaker notes that not all tension is bad; anxiety about a desired event can feel like tension mixed with excitement and warmth, whereas fear-based tension lacks this positive quality. The ultimate goal of mastering these techniques is to align one's heart, mind, soul, body, and spirit to achieve true happiness and prosperity. By consistently using these intuitive tools to evaluate life paths, individuals can discover their true purpose and make choices that resonate with their authentic selves. The process encourages writing down the results of these tests to build a solid foundation for decision-making, ensuring that every major choice is made with the whole self rather than just the logical mind. Through this integration of physical sensation and energetic awareness, one gains a clear direction in life, avoiding paths that drain energy while embracing those that foster growth and alignment.

so as i mentioned earlier i want to show you how to use your intuition to make better decisions for yourself and all this qigong and all this meditation and tai chi what it helps you do is to really be aware of how inside of your body how it works energetically how it feels uh how it connects to each other and to build your awareness and sensitivity to energies inside your body and eventually outside your body as well so one really practical way of using this is to feel the energy um so that it helps you to make a decision so how do you make a the right decision for you i want you to by the end of this lesson to have a new way of making decisions is to feel the energy through your body um and to use your energy to test whether something is going to work for you beneficially or not and this concept is called muscle testing so there's many ways of muscle testing and i'm going to share with you a few that i use myself that have been quite reliable so the first one is very simple you may have done this before is using your fingers to muscle test so first i want you to do this i want you to make it make an okay sign with one every hand maybe it's the left hand and then i want you to make another okay sign with your right hand and then link them together and how i want you to do this is make it so that you you're trying to pull them apart but you're preventing yourself from pulling apart at the same time okay and i want you to say my name is and then whatever your name is okay so i'm gonna say my name is david and then as you can see i'm pulling and then it doesn't open up okay so if you can say my name is and whatever your name is and they say that and then try to open it up and you can feel that it should be firm in case if it's not firm then firm it up keep saying my name is whatever your name is and then feel that it should be very firm and hard to open up so what you're now doing is programming a yes or a positive into your into your muscle into your muscles into your nervous system okay now what i want you to do is say my name is and then say any other name that's not your name my name is bob and then automatically you should feel that it's weakened that length that you create with your fingers should be weakened okay if it doesn't work go back to the original which is saying what your name is so you're saying your real name and then it should be firm okay so what this trains you to do is to use muscle testing use kinesiology to program a positive or a negative in your body okay so keep doing this until you can get a consistent uh result so you should say mine is david they shouldn't break and they say my name is bob and then it will break okay so this is a very simple way for you to ask questions to yourself and your body using this technique will tell you whether it's going to be positive or negative so for example um you can ask any question let's say should i eat this sandwich okay and do the muscle testing okay in your mind ask yourself should i eat this sandwich have the sandwich in your mind look at the sandwich and then do the mess of testing is it and then if it's strong that means maybe you should eat that sandwich if it breaks then maybe you shouldn't eat that sandwich so use this with discretion this may be one way of making decisions but it's not the only way you may also want to include logic to combine with this intuition so that it helps you make a better decision another way to do something similar to muscle testing is something called balance testing so remember we just did that roll forward and alloy so the forward and the backwards we're shifting our energies back and forth a lot so what that does is to help you find that center balance so that when you stand you are very familiar with being centered in the middle so what this testing is is balance testing and as i said it uses your body to tell you what's positive and what's negative so how this works is ask yourself a question you should ask yourself should i work with this person in business for example and then you ask that question in your mind you can close your eyes and then you can imagine uh that person in your mind and then what happens and you just feel yourself just relax and then feel yourself are you leaning forward a little or are you leaning backward a little okay so i'm gonna show you i'm just going to be neutral right now find the neutral position find that balance around that center use that long spine head suspended just like we showed you in the previous lessons so you find your center balance you're so you're complete centered you're completely relaxed now ask yourself the question should i do business with this person should i go on a date with this person whatever the question is okay now keep that in your mind and then eventually your body will either go forward like this lean forward a bit or you'll lean backward a bit okay so you'll be able to feel it because you've been doing so much balance training with all that qigong and tachi so if it leans back a bit that's a negative if it's lean forward with it that means it's a positive okay so this is your body using balance telling you what you should be doing okay so that's another way to balance test your body to help you be more intuitive so so the third way to do muscle testing is more like a strength test and this requires somebody else so if you don't really trust your own instincts and you want a third party opinion then you can do this so this is pretty simple i'm just going to stand with my feet together like this and i'm going to leave my arm out like this okay and then i'm gonna think my name is david and then you're going to try to press down my hand okay just like put some weight on there my name is david you're pretty strong right okay and press restart press feel it strong right okay so you know how much that is okay then i'm gonna say my name is susan and you do the same thing i'm gonna try to resist it like i'm trying to resist it the same amount mentally but for some reason my arm just drops because i'm not in congruency with my body with what i'm saying okay thanks justin so if you're congruent and you're aligned and everything's congruent with your heart body mind soul and spirit physically you will be naturally stronger without even trying and but if you're not let's say i said my name is susan my my body naturally becomes weak so that's strength testing that's another way that you can do this so having practiced those different kinds of muscle testing including the fingers the balance or the strength testing the more you do it the more you are aware the more you're in tune of what is negative and how that feels in your body in your chakras and what's positive and how that feels in your chakras and how that feels to your body and eventually whenever you make a decision you just go by the feeling instead of the physical test eventually you wouldn't even need the physical test because you'll just be so fluent in that language in the energetic language so that when you feel that it's oh yeah that feels like a yes or oh yeah that feels like a no because you've done all the muscle testing prior to that you've done it so many times you're familiar with what the noel feels like internally and energetically and what a yes feels like internally and energetically so when you make a decision when you ask a question that yes or no comes to you instantly and that's what i want you to get to to have that kind of intuition so that's how you train yourself up to it is to go do all the qigong exercises so they can open up the tracker centers and the key is to relax because the more you tense it the less you're going to feel the more you relax the more you can feel so as you open them up and relax them now you can feel those chakra centers and the more connected you make them then the more integrated you become so when you're weak emotionally when you're weak in your mind if a decision or something that's going to happen is a negative for you your body automatically becomes weak and you feel that drainage of energy conversely if something is good for you or is aligning to your purpose aligning to something that's going to benefit you then you will start feeling it in your body and knowing that it is actually that so one example is if you have to make a decision and you feel your body getting stronger you feel uh a chi energy in your sacral chakra for example uh and then you feel like your balance is moving forward and you feel stronger then that your body telling you that there's something that may be good for you or it may be something that uh you have that if that's if you're say if your solar plexus is is feeling energy that means that's something you're really motivated to do or if you start feeling your heart chakra heat up that means something it may be something that you really love to do or you start feeling your dan tien or your your naval chakra start feeling heat that may be something you have a lot of energy to do so when you feel the energy welling up inside those centers like your mind center or your crown center then that means that that energy center is activated and it means it's your body telling you and it's your own spirit telling you that is something you should do okay and once again obviously the way if you feel the tension in your heart or you feel a drainage of energy you feel oh like that or you feel something you feel pain or you feel tension or you feel coldness or then that may be something that you shouldn't do like if you feel their heart tightening up that may be something that you hate or something that you don't love and you shouldn't be doing it or you feel like something too much tension okay that's another thing okay is a tension can be good or bad because sometimes we're anxious about something which is good for us so you got to be able to tell between negative intention and positive tension positive tension usually has a warmth and an expansion with tension at the same time whereas bad tension is just tension without any warmth without any kind of positive feeling with it okay so for example like tomorrow i'm going to see somebody i really want to meet then i can feel the anxiety i feel tension but at the same time i feel excited i feel my heart opening up i feel my solar practice is kind of like getting warmer because i really want to meet this person right so you have to be able to use your body to feel um whether something is good for you or something is bad for you so using those exercises the muscle testing the balance the strength testing and the meditation is going to help you do that so i hope that this lesson helps you to discover your true life's true purpose ask yourself what your true purpose is and use those techniques that i just showed you to make this decisions you can ask oh should i go down this path a and then use the muscle testing to get that answer or should i go down path b instead and use muscle testing again so keep testing and write it down on a notebook so that you will have a good foundation to make that decision and to find out your life's true purpose so hope this really transforms your life so you can have a clear direction of where you want to go something that's going to align your heart your mind your soul your body and your spirit so you do everything with your whole self so that you achieve true happiness and true prosperity [Music]
