Meditations Pt. 2

Most people tend to suppress their natural instincts because of what other people say. I suggest you read a book called “Developing Intuition: Practical Guidance for Daily Life” by Shakti Gawain. link here She gets right into the shit without really bogging you down with a lot of unnecessary information. The only thing I don’t like about the book is a small religious undertone it carries. Then again I had the same complaint about Meditations.
