[00:03:26]or in the show notes. Today, I’m revealing the number one question to ask and ask often, ask on the daily. When pursuing a dream, it’s a question we can really, really forget to ask. And we can really forget to ask it if we’ve been pursuing the dream for a long time. So it’s been a dream that’s been around for a while.

[00:03:55] And maybe we’re frustrated that there’s not more energetic momentum happening. Where you’re not getting more results, then you really, really forget about this question. Now when I tell you, I don’t want you to be like, Oh, boff, Allison, I was expecting something a little juicier. I was expecting something I haven’t heard before.

[00:04:18] I really want you to hear me, hear what I’m about to share with you, because it will be like a reframe for your dreams. That will keep you in energetic alignment, get you clear, and get you on the path to fulfilling your dreams. Here is the question. Are you ready? The question is, one word, why? Why? And ideally, ideally, your dream is heart led.

[00:05:03] So we’re actually asking your higher self why. We’re not asking your ego mind. We’re not calculating why. This is a question to the higher self. Higher self? Why are you calling me to set this dream in tension? Why? It is so powerful to keep you clean. and aligned. And what I mean by that is the answer to this question will often come in one or two ways.

[00:05:45] It will come in a shadow answer or it will come in a light align answer. Let’s start with the shadow answer. Your higher self calls you to a dream intention. You start pursuing it. Then you ask the question, Hi, yourself. Why did you call me to this dream? When it’s a shadow answer, it’s gonna be some sort of painful or resisting or out of alignment response.

[00:06:17] And very often. You will find the response to have some sort of proving energy. I want to prove it to my husband. I want to prove it to all the naysayers. I want to prove it to the world. I want to prove it to myself that I can do this. I can reach this dream. I can hit this goal. Proving energy is low vibrational, It takes you out of alignment to your dreams and it is painful and we don’t want to be in this low vibrational proving energy as we pursue our dreams, but it’s great feedback.

[00:06:57] We all dip into this from time to time on our path and often we don’t realize it because we lose sight of why we go after certain dreams after a while. And at a certain point, you can find yourself really disconnected to your why, because maybe you’ve been in a lot of proving energy going into willpower to push things through instead of staying in that beautiful alignment.

[00:07:31] That has you in higher vibrations of joy and enables you to start experiencing real results that feel good. So this question, why? Why higher self are you calling me to set this intention? Enables you to check in whether you’re in a clean energy with the intention or not. And if you get a shadow answer, well, I want to prove to fill in the blank that I can do this, go into a little bit of self healing, feel the feels, breathe, release, go back into the body, connect to higher self, and ask your higher self again, why?

[00:08:20] Now, if the intention is actually coming from the higher self, there is light, high vibrational aligned energy present. And if you’ve cleared away the resistance, you’ve created the space for the higher self. The high vibrational energy and insight to arrive because I want to be an expression of my gifts because I want to give back to humanity because I want to feel joy or love or abundance.

[00:08:48] And I want to change the world. And these are the why reasons that are going to light you up and get you excited to get out of bed in the morning and start pursuing these dreams to begin with. This is the energy that motivates you. That makes your heart sing. This is the why that’s in alignment to your soul mission, your life purpose.

[00:09:09] So this is a practice that I do on the daily. I ask my higher self every morning for an intention. And then once I receive the intention, I ask why. Why are you calling me towards this? I perceive what I receive coming back in response, and then I make sure that my Y is an aligned Y. And so how does asking why give you sharper clarity with regards to what you truly want?

[00:09:44] It’s because when we are inadvertently too long improving energy without realizing it, we actually get disconnected from what it is we truly want. It sends us down the wrong path often. It puts us into a willpower energy where we’re pushing, and by gum, I’m going to force this dream to arrive in my manifest reality.

[00:10:11] And when you’re forcing and pushing and in willpower, You very soon get into what it is you don’t really want. This is not what your heart is really calling you to. And it can leave you with the feeling of like, this isn’t what I want, but I don’t know what it is I do want. And you can feel sort of unclear and muddled and I’m not sure, you know, what intentions I really should be setting.

[00:10:37] What do I want? Where is my alignment? To find that is simply to look. Taking some deep breaths, sinking into the body, connecting to higher self, asking higher self for a dream intention, perceiving what you’re receiving, coming back in response, and asking the higher self why you’re calling me to set this dream intention.

[00:11:02] And the answer to the why is so often going to point you to that which you truly want. That which you truly want to experience or feel or bring into your experience. And the more you ask why, the more clarity that will arrive to you. And when you get clear about what it is you truly want, that’s when manifestation really starts to get magical.

[00:11:31] And it’s super easy to dip into proving energy on your path, even when the dream is heart led. And your human design type can point you to those aspects of your chart where you are susceptible or prone to proving. If you are a projector or a manifester, we have open sacrals. Oftentimes people don’t see us or hear us.

[00:11:59] Or manifestors are five steps ahead of the rest of us. So you feel like you’re out there all alone. And before we learn about our types and strategies, we don’t follow our strategy. So that puts us in shadow. Makes us feel unseen, unheard. So we go into proving energy. I’ll prove you, I’ll show you that I can do it so I can be seen and heard.

[00:12:24] If you have an open will center, you are very susceptible to going into a proving energy. You don’t have consistent access to willpower. So you can sometimes feel like you struggle to have the willpower to finish a project. Or to fulfill a dream intention and because of that, it will automatically put you into this proving energy.

[00:12:46] I will prove to you that I’ll find the willpower to fulfill this dream intention. If you have an open throat center and you’re not waiting to be recognized before you speak, you will often feel unheard. When you feel unheard and unseen, you overcompensate that is a natural, normal human reaction so that you can be seen or heard.

[00:13:13] And so you will go into proving energy. I will prove to you that I can be seen and heard. And this is just awareness. It’s just calling in our recognition when we’re in that proving energy. It takes us out of alignment to our dreams. And this brings us nicely to how to use the answer. To this why question to gain unstoppable energetic momentum behind your dreams, because it keeps you in check.

[00:13:40] So you know, when you’re getting into low vibrational resisting energy, and then it gets you back into your light, into your why, into your purpose, into why you feel called to do what it is you do. This serves as a natural motivator. This propels you forward. And most importantly, it gets you in the energy today of your dreams of tomorrow, because you’re going to find when you ask this question, hi, yourself, you’re calling me to attend K month.

[00:14:15] You’re calling me to write a book for my business. You’re calling me to live a healthier lifestyle. Why? Because that will make me feel vibrant. That will make me feel abundant. That will give me the opportunity to experience this thing I want to experience. That gets you in this moment in the energy of our dreams.

[00:14:39] And that’s how we start attracting our dreams into our physical manifest reality. Lately, when I’ve been doing this, I keep getting this great answer from my higher self. I really love this. Why, Higher Self, are you calling me to this intention? Because, Higher Self tells me, I’m calling you to feel complete.

[00:15:04] This intention is going to enable you to feel complete. My heart is yearning for the feeling of wholeness, completeness. And it’s really teaching me that I can access that feeling of wholeness and completeness in this moment. And I don’t need any outside thing to enable me to feel whole. In other words, I have no missing pieces.

[00:15:36] I am whole and complete in this moment. And when I surrender to that, I feel so full. I feel so surrendered and non attached and all the things that is just the beautiful energy to be in to manifest your dreams. And then all of a sudden I see clients showing up here, they’re everywhere. Little things start showing up to make my experience more easeful.

[00:16:07] Like if I’m on a laundry detergent, I will notice at the store, they’ve got a buy one, get one free for my favorite detergent. I mean, this kind of little stuff happens. all the time for me and I notice it and when I see a buy one get one free on a product that I buy all the time and need I look at that as a sign it’s abundance the universe is giving me like they’re giving me a free bottle of laundry detergent something I would have needed to buy and now I’m getting one free this is flow and oftentimes we neglect to see it as such it’s like oh buy one get one okay no big deal But, reframe that the next time something like that happens to you.

[00:16:54] If it’s something you’ve been needing and wanting and thinking about, and it shows up into your experience in some sort of easeful way or useful way, that is Source conspiring to get you what you need and want. And the more I get into the energy of my high Y, Behind my soul guided intentions, the more I get into this beautiful, juicy flow that leads me to fulfilling intention after soul guided intention.

[00:17:33] My invitation for you this week, my dear ones is to take some deep breaths, sink into the body, connect to higher self and ask your higher self for a dream intention. Ask the beautiful question, why? Why, higher self, are you calling me towards this dream intention? If there’s resistance, go ahead and feel that release it.

[00:18:02] If there is proving energy, feel the proving, breathe, release, and then see if you can shift into that beautiful high alignment. Why? In alignment to your sole purpose and your life mission. And dear ones, if you received something interesting or useful from this episode, please tell me. I would be so grateful to hear from you.
