The Guidance Groove

There’s a voice inside you that knows exactly what to do when it’s time to make a choice. Every single time. That is your authenticity, your truth, your spark, your own personal Guidance Groove.

You can find your voice, trust it, and live by it. You can escape the untrue thought patterns that obscure your voice, breed inauthenticity, and feed your Unproductive Grooves of inadequacy, obligation, scarcity, and unworthiness.

The Guidance Groove is a roadmap for navigating the flow of life while in continual communication with your own authentic, intuitive self. It’s an invitation to live your life from a place of wholeness.

The Guidance Groove is for those of you who are used to relying mostly on logic and the mental stories you have accumulated over years of personal, familial, and societal programming when making decisions. You believe the thoughts in your head, no matter how untrue, and this leads to a life of inauthenticity, dissatisfaction, and unease. Despite this, you intuitively feel and know there is that true voice inside you, there is a different and more authentic way for living that goes beyond your reliance solely on the rational realm.

The Guidance Groove shows you how to recognize when you are stuck in the false mental programming that feeds and drives your adherence to the Unproductive Grooves. The book examines what it means to be trapped in those Unproductive Grooves across multiple life arenas (intimate partnerships, family, friends, school/work/life, and community), how to escape from the automatic thinking that perpetuates the Unproductive Grooves, and how to find, value, and listen to your own personal guidance.

In this way, you can approach all choices from a place of wholeness, wherein your logical thinking self is fully integrated with your intuitive, feeling body. When you release your beliefs in false stories and become firmly rooted in your personal Guidance Groove, you then navigate the flow of life from a position of authenticity and clarity which naturally increases your ease, contentment, and joy.

Discover how true you can be when you dance freely to your Guidance Groove.
