Christine Heath and Judy Sedgeman

The essential message we receive from the Principles of Mind, Consciousness, and Thought is that all people, always, have access to insights.  But we also have the ability to ignore in-the-moment fresh thoughts when we are caught up in habits or memories.  If we start to recognize and trust the ease and certainty we feel when we are guided by the flow of fresh thought, we feel confident and present, even in the face of challenges.  We are relying on wisdom beyond our intellect and learning as we live.  When we override the inner voice of insight, we can get stuck repeating past errors or feeling inadequate to handle life situations.
