Knowledge & Self-cultivation
This area is often overlooked by people who want to get on to the more exciting stuff like love and money, but this area has an equal, if not, higher importance and relevance in your life.
Being able to TRUST YOURSELF is the most beautiful gift you can give yourself...and the world.
Having the wisdom and the knowledge to make the right choices is extraordinarily important.
Being able to tap into your inner wisdom and to trust that inner guidance will have a profound effect on every decision you make and how you live your life moving forward.
Having the confidence to follow your truth and to trust yourself with every move you make is absolutely paramount to your level of success in love, money, health and everything in between.
Life is for learning, and the more you learn, the stronger your skill set will be.
Imagine how empowered you’ll be when you’re able to recognize advantageous opportunities every time they present themselves.
With this wisdom, you can knowingly pick and choose what you want out of life.
The Knowledge & Self-Cultivation area also defines your ability to set up safe, healthy boundaries that reflect your core needs. It helps you get in touch with your inner guides, your inner wisdom and your intuition.
Clarity will be your new best friend and forward momentum will be a new constant. The word STUCK will no longer be a part of your vocabulary.
You are a unique individual with unique needs, the more you can define, understand and honor those unique needs the more success you will have in your life, particularly, success in LOVE & MONEY!
The Knowledge & Self Cultivation area is in the far left corner, along the front wall of your home or room.

Discovering your space…
What is your subconscious trying to communicate through your living space?
While comfortably sitting in the Knowledge & Self-Cultivation area of your home, take a long look around. Make the following observations:
What do you see? What room are you in?
How does the space FEEL? How do YOU feel in the space?
Is the space clean, kept and open? Or is it cluttered, dirty and closed?
What do you like about the space? What do you dislike about the space?
Does the space reflect a strong connection to your intuition, your inner knowledge?
Does the space reflect your knowledge of self and your ability to learn?
Take a minute to just to sit and be quiet, look and listen, what is the space trying to tell you? What have you been afraid to notice? Write about your observations.
