A Real Example of Automatic Writing

“Your intuition knows what to write so get out of the way” -Ray Bradbury

When you’re feeling depressed, anxious or longing for answers to clear that active mind of yours, automatic writing can really help.

We all have access to a higher version of ourselves; one with all the answers. All you need to do is speak to that person. Here’s how:

• Think of something that’s been really bothering you lately
• Come up with a question. The more detailed and emotionally driven your question is, the more your higher self will be able to answer it with clarity.
• Open a word document or pen to paper style and get to writing
• Don’t overthink your answer let your intuition guide you

Here’s a conversation between my mortal self and my higher self. Enjoy.

Why have I lost trust in my intuition and ability to communicate with confidence and self-assurance?

You overthink more than you act. Every time you start a project you have this ideal of perfection which halts your progress and leaves you stuck in a paralysis of analysis.

Your idea of perfect doesn’t exist these are just excuses that halt action.

Overthinking leaves you judging your every move and questioning the aftermath rather than just putting your work out there and letting it speak for itself freely.

It’s through freedom that we fail, learn and grow. If you keep boxing yourself in an arbitrary idea of perfect you will never grow. You won’t be able to mess up and then learn from your mistakes.

Why am I so afraid of messing up?

You’ve worn your heart on your sleeve in the past.. you have shown your true and flawed self to people you thought you could trust. They didn’t show up for you in the way you had expected them to so you drew back and ended relationships.

Expectations will only let you down.

Understand that most people don’t have it all figured out and they project their realities onto you. Just as you do towards them. People will tell you who you are and if you don’t keep doing inner work to know thyself you might start believing them.

Knowing yourself and relearning your evolving self is your greatest soul protection.

You’re afraid of messing up because you were looking to others for answers when you need to keep doing inner work.

When you feel lonely turn inwards you always have the answer.

I feel like there’s too much to learn, too much to do, and I get melodramatic about life to the point where I say “what’s the point?” I fast forward and see myself at 80 years old with a bunch of accomplishments but still deeply depressed, why is this?

You are focusing too much on yourself. No life worth living is accomplished alone. If you are 80 years old and only thinking about the things you have succeeded at then of course you won’t feel fulfilled. What is wisdom worth if it isn’t passed on?

Shift your focus towards the lives you will have changed because you listened to your purpose here on earth.

Think of the souls you will save from suicide, shutting off and tuning into the matrix, or giving up on their dreams.

You did not work tirelessly for 26 years to break generational curses like poverty, illness, drug and alcohol addiction and major mental health illnesses for YOU to give up on all of that hard work.

Remember that the more you show up for yourself here and now, the more the universe will use you for divine intervention in the lives of others.

God has a purpose for everyone but not everyone listens to it.

The fact that you are tuned in right now and listening, is a blessing to be celebrated. The angels are jumping in heaven because you care about improving the lives of others, not because you want to hold 10 trophies when you’re 80 years old and on the way out.

And if death seems daunting to you, it’s because you’re losing faith.

There is another side. This life is just the beginning.

Make it count. Leave your mark. And when you have more questions look inwards for the answer. I will always be here.

Love, your divine self.

Wow. Thank you.

Sometimes all we need to do is look within. There we find everything. I hope this helped! Let me know if you tried this. Happy writing.
