#315 An Introduction: Flowdreaming and Empathic Intuition

Flow Dreaming.

It's a show where we talk about the power of your mind to change your world around you, to literally affect.

The fabric of your reality.

We talk about this feeling of hope and joy and relief. And that is what being aware of your flow does. It gives you a feeling of power.

Again in your lives.

And that is what being aware of your flow does.

It gives you a feeling of power again in your lives. Breathe.

It is the feeling that you bring forward. It is your emotional connection that really sets the tone for what is going to be happening to you and for you.

And you know that feeling when you.

Touch it, it just spreads through you.

I'm Summer McStravik and welcome to another.

Episode of Flow Dreaming. Hi, it's Summer, and a quick request before we jump into the show, if you like or even love what you're about to and the number one reason this show has gotten around and stays in the favorites in itunes and the App Store, it's because of your reviews. And we are in our 11th straight year because of you and your reviews. People rely on your opinion and frankly, they often misunderstand Flow Dreaming. And the only way to correct that is through you leaving a few words about the program. And I can't do it. I would if I could, but it has to be you. So if I've made any impact on your life at all, please scream, scoot over to itunes on your podcast app and either subscribe to Flow Dreaming or write a review of the show or the app or both. And mega kisses for doing both. I'll send some good flow your way too. So pause the episode and do it now or just get onto the show.

Welcome to Flow Dreaming. Hi everyone, I'm Summer McStravik. Thanks for joining me this week. I know I say the same words at the start of every show, but I mean it. Even so many years later, I mean it. Thank you for joining me. Spending your hour learning about your mind, learning about consciousness, about flow energy, and today's show in particular is going to help you contrast and compare these in your life and in your thinking and in your understanding. And maybe even figure out where in the spectrum your greatest talent falls. Whether you are a born manifester or a born intuitive or someplace in between. Or maybe you've been in both camps. One for a little while and then on to the next one. If this is your first time listening to the podcast, then hello, welcome. I'm glad to have you here. Delighted. I know many of you will be listening for the first time because of some exciting developments that have just occurred on my website and regarding the show. And I'll tell you in just a second. And to those of you who've been with me for the seven years this program has been on air, my love to you and thanks for coming back and keeping on listening. So here's. Here's what's been going on in the last couple of weeks and why I think today's show is going to be really good and one that I'm going to recommend over and over and over as the time years go on as a great show to start with for Flow Dreaming. First of all, I have just created a subscription program for this show where you will be able to listen to many of the shows that have just most recently aired for free, including gather all you can, learn all you can. But if you want to go back into my back catalog now of podcasts, these are shows that go back all the way to my very first one in 2005. I've traveled through a number of different radio stations since then. I began, of course, with Hay House Radio. Many of you remember me there. That is the station that I built and created from the ground up. This was for Louise Hay and that's where I co hosted many radio programs for years with Dr. Wayne Dyer. Built shows for Jerry and Esther Hicks. All kinds of people. Very exciting experience. Well, I started my program there. I have since moved on. Now I do Flow Dreaming and this kind of work full time. And I'm currently with Contact Talk radio, which has been a wonderful and loving home. All of these episodes spanning all of this time around, 300 of them will ultimately be logged in, are now available as a subscription, which you can podcast and, you know, play listen to at your leisure to find these programs. And it's very inexpensive. Per monthly subscription you can go to flowdreaming.com the other bit of exciting news where I know a lot of people will be tuning in for the first time, is that Flow Dreaming now has its own app. Multiple apps, actually. One of them is for the iPad and the iPhone, and of course the other one is for the Android Android devices. So your smartphone can now carry Flow Dreaming with you everywhere you go. And of course those are free apps. These let you organize the shows. Finally, you can put stars next to your favorite ones. You remember them. You know, if you need to work on money or something in your life, you can just type in money in search and all the shows relating to prosperity and career and abundance and money will pop up. So a lot you can do with it to make it even more useful your life. So given that, I thought it would be great for me to catch everybody up, catch myself up. What have I been doing? Where am I today with Flow Dreaming? What is Flow Dreaming? What is this other thing I've been talking about a lot lately called Empathic intuition? In fact, I have a class coming up on Empathic intuition very soon. It's one that I teach only once a year. So if you want to get into the class, go look right now. If you're listening, of course on archives. You'll just have to see what happens when I get the next class running or if I decide to post the class as an online downloadable course. I'm not exactly sure, but right now it's only running once a year. So if you're interested, do go to Flow Dreaming Calm. By the way, there are tons of resources@flow dreaming.com. not only can you go there to find the apps if you don't want to look through your phone, but you can also get a free Flow Dream to try things out. A free Flow Dream, by the way, is a downloadable MP3. It's about 1012 minutes long and it takes you on this Flow Dreaming journey into a Flow Dream with a purpose which is to determine where you are in your life right now so you can begin manifesting from that point. If you sign up for the newsletter, you get the MP3 download free. So go check that out as well. It's probably the next best thing to do. Besides listening to this podcast, there's also a mentorship program you can become involved in, which is a program where I speak with people every couple of weeks. We do live Flow Dreams together. It's kind of like a Flow Dream of a month club actually, because you also can receive a free Flow Dream each month of my choosing. Usually it's a brand new one that I've made up just for our group. We meet from all over the world. Oh, we have people in India and Thailand, Russia, Singapore, the US of course. Lots of you in the UK and Australia. You in Australia are big flow Dreamers. I have to say so. So much you can get involved in once you decide you want to pursue the technique. So let's talk about this technique. First of all, this is information that I give away freely and I always have teaching you exactly how to do it because I recognize that Flow Dreaming is something we are all innately gifted with. We're born with this ability, with this connection. We are born to manifest and create and shape our lives. And I Just happened to have stumbled on a technique or a way to do it that was very, very effective and very, very easy. And after many years, a lifetime of looking around and trying so many different methods, I realized that this was the one that worked for me. It worked for my particular kind of mind. My mind is chit chatty. It likes to talk a lot, likes to be very active, it likes to be involved, it likes to feel useful. So when I tried things like meditation for manifesting, I always walked away feeling like my mind was at a battle against the rest of me. I was saying, quiet down so I can meditate and create. My mind would not let me do it. So I realized that meditation was not my perfect route for manifesting. Likewise, I tried other things. Creative visualization. Shakti Gawain's work. Adore that work. However, I added some more components to it. I realized that emotion was a huge untapped well of potential that could be used with manifesting and creating, as well as backing away from the details and the particulars. So therefore, creative visualization wasn't quite the right avenue for me. Hypnosis, likewise, I found, really affected my subconscious mind. It helped me redefine myself, think differently, feel differently. The same is true for affirmations, by the way. Helped me understand myself differently. So as I moved into my future, I was bringing into that future a person who was more confident and more strong inside, felt more love for myself inside. But it wasn't actually creating. Basically at heart, what happened is all the methods and the means that I had tried to manifest felt like they were lacking some component. Even when I got very, very close, there was always a sense at the end when I had tried to use the law of Attraction or be in my vortex, that I hadn't really heard the universe respond. I wasn't sure if I had just done something inside my own self, my own body, my own brain, or if I had done something in a bigger way, if I had touched some larger energy field that was now really taking my requests, really taking my desires and acting on them, moving on them. And that for me is really where the flow and this concept of flow changed everything. And suddenly manifesting and law of Attraction, all of this made perfect and complete sense to me. So we're going to talk today about what this technique is, how you use it, how you get a program started a little bit. Then we're going to contrast it to another kind of energy you hear a lot about in your life, which is intuition, knowing things, being psychic, having feelings. Because what I'VE realized over the years, having taught about manifesting over and over and over to thousands, hundreds of thousands of people, is that intuition is kind of the flip side of manifesting. If you think of a current of energy, think about ac, DC current, think about black and white, think about any polarity that can come to mind. Yin Yang. And what you have is the same parallel to manifesting and intuition. They're both complementary sides of each other. You're using the same energy, but you're using them almost in opposite directions. And what I find over and over, the more that I teach, the more that I meet people, work with students, is that people have a gift more in one side or more in the other. A lot of people, of course, are balanced, but generally speaking, and myself included, I'm very strong with manifesting. However, I think that's because I've been practicing it for so many years and it was my first real serious passion. However, the intuitive work I've been doing, I've probably been doing longer. I've been using my intuition, my empathic intuition, since I was a young teenager, but I never explored it to the depth and the degree, especially through teaching, that I did with manifesting. However, I've noticed in the last couple of years the empathic intuition is starting to bubble up in my life. And I don't want to say it's overtaking manifesting, but for the first time, I'm feeling a beautiful equilibrium coming about between the two. And I'm very curious to see what will happen next. Will I go full into the empathic and the intuitive side of things? Or will I have finally reached a point where it's a balanced kind of energy within. Within myself? Don't know. We'll see. So let's talk for a moment here about flow and flow dreaming. And in case you're curious, yes, I almost always talk this fast. It's because I feel like I have to stuff so much in to the one hour a week that I have with you or the one podcast that I have with you every week. Likewise, all the stuff on my website is just as packed. So many articles, free, of course. Radio programs you can listen to, podcasts you can listen to. There's a great manifesting store there filled with recordings you can get. Anyway, let's get back to this question of what flow energy is. Some people have heard of flow from a psychological standpoint, and they've heard of flow psychology or positive psychology. Flow in this sense, is regarded as being in a state where time ceases to exist. You are so immersed in something that you almost lose an awareness of who you are. This is the artist so engrossed in her painting that five hours fly by and she and the painting become almost one. This is the person who is playing golf, and their game is brilliant. They have never played so well. It's like they know before they hit the ball where it's going to land. This is the state that the scientist gets in when they have been slaving for days, trying to come up with some, you know, grand understanding. And one day it just arrives for them all at once. Together, they have entered a kind of flow of time, of being, of intensity, with their passion that creates something almost bigger than what they are. We know these flow states. We've experienced these in our lives. They don't always have to be so magnificent. I often experience a pure flow state, which is, if you kind of notice, it's a state of perfect alignment with your life where you could almost say you're perfectly in the now. That's another way of phrasing it, perhaps. But when I'm out in the garden and I'm pulling weeds and planting, I completely lose track of time. I am so focused in what I am doing, it. It almost becomes cathartic for me because all of my worries are gone, all of my concerns are gone. My body is engaged, I'm sweating, my mind is purely focused. I'm in a. It's almost a state of bliss. All right, I am at one in my life at that point. Now, you've probably experienced this also in days or weeks or months of your life. These are the times when you say everything just went right. It was just like one thing after another, just bam, bam, bam, fell into place. Place. You know, I got my new car, and then I was offered the job, and my relationship was the strongest and the closest it had ever been. It was like I was flowing on a wave and nothing could take me off of it. I was there, and I don't know, gradually it just seemed to end or wrap up. I'm not exactly sure how, but for a while there, everything was just right. It was right. And you start to notice certain characteristics about this state. Everything feels easy. There's no real resistance. The things that are happening to you are always happening for your good. I mean, for your perfection, for your growth, for your expansion. This is pure flow, and we felt the opposite of this state before. This feels to us like when you are a swimmer going against the current, you swim and swim and swim and swim, and nothing you do will get you ahead. You put out all this effort to go nowhere. Yet a swimmer who's moving with the current puts out a little bit of effort and goes so far, if they put out equal current that they did when they were swimming against, they would, you know, win a record. They would go so fast and so far. Equal amount of effort just depends on whether they are in their flow or not in their flow. So flow dreaming teaches you how to be in your flow, not just more often in your life, but how to go into this flow as you're moving into your future, to create and program this future of yours, how to, in essence, talk to your future from within this flowing place. It's not a religion by any means, although there is a bit of a philosophy behind it, sort of like Buddhism. Buddhism is not categorized as a religion, but it is a philosophy. It makes sense of the world around you. It makes sense of a lot of things. It even makes sense of psychic encounters and intuition, which we'll go into in just a few moments. Flow dreaming is both a philosophy, like I mentioned, but it's also a technique, which I've said as well in the technique of flow dream. This thing that we learn how to do, we are learning how to do something that not only gets us into the flow, moves us into the state where everything is easy and effortless and good things come to us all the time. But we can just say, we can sort of program it. We can say, well, I don't want just easy and effortless and good things. I need it in this area of my life or that area of my life. Or, you know, I need to move and I need a. I need that to be an effortless experience. Or I need a promotion. And I want this to be so easy and part of my very close upcoming future. Or I need to resolve this relationship issue that I'm having so that I'm happy again. These are all ways of impacting or affecting certain aspects of your flow of your energy that is moving forward into your future. Now, notice I talk about your energy moving forward, but everybody else has their own flow of life and forward movement and expansion as well. Imagine every single person, you know, like a comet moving through the sky, moving through space. They have a long tail. That's the past where they've been, all the information that's ever been collected about them. They have the present. That's the person you know. Then they have this future, which is this fuzzy little edge that's constantly creating itself, moment by moment, second by second. Everything in life actually has a flow like this. Even a tomato plant, which is right outside my window right now. This tomato plant had a history, had a past. It was different kinds of energy before it evolved into a tomato plant. It's growing now. In a few seconds, new things will have occurred to its leaves. The sun will have hit it a bit differently. The wind will have pushed through it. It is a flowing collection of information. So, wow, draw back and think of the entire world for a moment like this. A flowing collection of information. Billions, trillions, almost unimaginable amounts of flows of energy. Of all these things, all this data, all this information, it's almost a miracle when you think about it, because this information doesn't exist and then suddenly cease to exist. It's not like every second you have it and then it's gone. Information is always kept and captured within our universe. Once something has been experienced, created, thought, felt, seen, heard, touched, it is there. There is a record of it. Every time energy is modified, the record of that modification stays. It stays. Even though new information is constantly creating, this is known as evolution. This is why we talk about us and our souls as something that are in progress, works of art. We ourselves have this record of everything we have experienced here in this life and potentially before this life. When you learn to manifest, when you learn to flow dream, what you're doing is saying, I recognize that I am this infinite being, and everything around me are these, you know, infinite flows of energy. And they're weaving themselves together like little threads coming together to form a fabric, little threads traveling forward, threads of energy. And there's this big, beautiful fabric behind me of everything that ever has been. And right on the leading edge, we're moving into, you know, new things. Well, what will they be? Will it be haphazard and crazy and, you know, who knows? Or can I program it? Can I create it? Flow dreaming says yes. You have a lot of impact on this future. You aren't just a bit of randomness going in and bumping around with everything else. You're not moving into a place of chaos that just happens to come together by miracle every second into the world you see around you. No, things that were created a few minutes ago are going to continue to be created and evolved into the future until something changes them or impacts them. You and your mind and your energy field are the most powerful of these creators, affecting and changing and saying, what can come next? So Flow dreaming tells the universe what can come next. The technique is incredibly simple. There's only three parts to it and then it's just a matter of applying it over and over and over again to different aspects of your life, different areas of your life. Now we haven't even touched on empathic intuition. I recognize that. Which we should definitely get to. So I think once we get back from our short break, I'm going to tell you what that technique is, how to do it. Then I'm going to contrast it to what the intuitive aspects of flow energy are. In other words, we're talking right now about how to put your information into the energies, how to change the energy, how to manifest in your future. The opposite of that is extracting information out of those energies. A two way street. Okay, so we're going to a quick break and when we get back, we'll continue with more about flow dreaming as well as empathic intuition. Maybe we'll even figure out where you are in the spectrum. My name is Summer McStravik. The show is called Flow Dreaming. Stay with me.

Hi, it's Summer, but on break. And I know that some of you are still wondering, what is flow dreaming and what is MI School?

Because I refer to both of these.

Quite a bit in my podcast. Me School is a transformational program. It's a gorgeous and deeply revealing, empowering online school worldwide where I teach you how to remodel your life in any way you choose, using the technique of flow dreaming as well as a bunch of other deeply powerful life changing processes. So me School is either enrolling or it's accepting names onto the wait list. And that means that I'm accepting students who work with me for the year. And you can learn how to do.

What I do in life.

The way I think, the way I build things, make things, heal things. Everything I talk about you will learn directly from me how to do. You're going to create some amazing things. My MI schoolers, their lives change way beyond the norm. And you don't even have to be a superstar when you go in. Some of you are, and you're ready to go bigger, play in that bigger field. And some of you are just saying, hey, help. What's next? Where should I go? And both are fine. Both are great if you're ready to go big. But you know that you need to deepen your own spiritual practice and your personal growth because that's where it all comes from, right? Then this is where you need to be. Your life only grows as big as you do. So here's what to do. Go over to flowdreaming.com and click on MI School. And during these enrollment periods, you can actually set up a free phone call with me or my staff and we'll talk about it.

Is it a fit?

Is it interesting? During wait list times, we just put you on a list of people who've expressed interest, so we can notify you as soon as the doors open. All right. I look forward to hearing from you and even more to getting to know you as one of my personal students in ME school. Now, let's get back to the episode.

We're going to continue on with more about Flow Dreaming this hour. Of course, as always, the show is just ripping by so fast. I'm gonna have to condense a little bit as I, as I go into the rest of it here because I want to share a flow dream with you live on air, which I always do pretty much on just every single podcast. So let me get back to sharing the technique with you very, very briefly. A lot of you have heard this before, so if you want to read more about it in detail, go to the website. You'll find the online learning library is a great place to start. Other ways of learning more about flow and how to flow dream specifically. I wrote a book, a very small book, very, you know, to the point. It comes with a cd. It helps you completely understand it, how to do it, everything that's on my website, I have a follow up book that expands on the first book. It gives you more depth, more understanding about the process. And I have a lot of CDs and different programs that you can practice with to get going. These are kind of like crutches because it's me leading you through different flow dreams to help you manifest and create in these different pockets or different areas of your life. Something that I always found so difficult years and years ago was that I'd try to manifest using some of the ideas people had given me. But I felt like, well, how do I apply it to this area or that area? How would I create to get, you know, to get my, you know, my health back or, or how would I do something specific and create specifically? Well, I created a series of MP3s, downloadable flow dreams or CDs that you can get through the mail that work in specific areas of your life, that walk you through this is how you would manifest and create this particular thing in your life. And then it's up to you to do the work of feeling it and seeing it and, well, the rest of the technique. Flow dreaming has 3, 3 parts to it. The first is the awareness of flow energy, which I definitely have covered already. And by the way, if you want to learn more about the science behind flow energy, how our minds really do affect this flow of data around us, that is all in my first book. Plus I've had some really great interviews over time. You can find them in the archives with a number of different physicists, including probably the last one. The latest one is Amit Goswani, a wonderful physicist. We had a great conversation about the physics of flow and the physics of manifestation and creation for a good hour. So the second part of this technique is using your emotion when you are aware of flow energy. You're often feeling things when you're in this state. But emotion is really the way that the universe understands you. Doesn't understand your language, doesn't even understand the pictures that you have in your head. That's what keeps your mind busy. The universe understands your feelings. Think about it. Right now, all over the Earth, what is the one thing we can communicate to every single person? No matter what tribe or ethnicity, nationality, whether they're young or old, no matter what language they speak. If I look at someone and I can tell they're about to cry, I know their feeling, I know their emotion. That is instant communication. Your emotion is the most potent form of energy in your body, aside from the energy of life itself that keeps your heart pumping and your cells moving. Emotion is what propels you, drives you. It's what caused you to move from being a, you know, biological animal into a more conscious, enlightened being. Through all of our evolution, your emotion tells the universe, here's what I feel about things, therefore this is what I expect of things. When you are in your flow, you don't say to it, I want to have the man of my dreams come into my life. And I see myself in a beautiful house, sauna, ocean, cliff. And I see pictures. That's very dry, that's very intellectual. That goes about as far as, you know, you know, flipping a penny off your, off your thumb. But instead you're moving into your flow and you're feeling this. I feel in love. I feel I'm with my partner. I feel myself standing in a beautiful home that fulfills every part of me, me, wherever it's located. It feels so wonderful to be here. I love this sensation of feeling secure and happy in a place that's safe, that is mine, that I'll have forever. Okay. These are all feeling based communications to the universe, to your flow. Very different than saying it, seeing it the sort of dry way. So the second component, emotion, that's how we talk to flow energy. Now the third part, well, how do we actually get there? All right. This is the most fun part of the technique. This is where we daydream. I've done many shows about the principles of daydreaming. What it is, how science doesn't know what it is, how it's the daytime equivalent of night dreaming. How it's absolutely essential to our lives that we daydream. And that we daydream approximately 30% of our time. Which is remarkable, except that when we daydream, usually we have no idea we're daydreaming. So we don't even know that 30% of our day is going by. Daydreaming is like a bridge. Think of, I always use this analogy. Think of your computer, how it goes and checks for its email periodically throughout the day. It does it in the background. It goes checks in with that larger web, that larger net of communication. Your mind is likewise always checking in with the greater you, your higher self, your soul, whatever words you use to understand this, you're checking in through this process of daydreaming. It's when your mind, your consciousness, expands itself. Your consciousness is already not just in your brain, alright, that's a given. Your consciousness expands outside of the field of energy that makes up your physical body. It is both within your physical body and yet it is also beyond and outside side of your physical body simultaneously. When you are daydreaming, you are creating a little bridge where you're telling your conscious mind, think up some pictures, think of some images, you know, come up with the thing that I want to feel and think about right now. This is like opening a door. When you then begin pumping these very strong emotions into these images and feelings, then you are entering this place of flow. You bring up that place of flow. You bring up that feeling of I am flowing with the energies of life. I am flowing into my future. I feel myself perfectly in alignment with a greater force than myself. You don't wait for it to happen to you either. You don't sit there and say, well, I'm waiting for God to come talk to me and bring me into this place. Don't allow your mind to daydream in pretend, create a fantasy. What happens is that fantasy turns into reality. It evolves itself in almost without thought, because you are by that point absolutely feeling it. And you know then that you're in. It's like jumping over a little bridge. Once you jump over that bridge, you are in flow. Once you are in that flow State because you've just daydreamed yourself into it, you fantasized, or into it until you actually begin to feel it. All right? It's as easy as that. Now, what you do in your flow energy is incredibly important because it defines what will be coming up for you next in your life. That is what helps you figure out and blueprint what comes up next. The very principle of manifesting and creating for yourself. Now, once you walk that way, once you open that door, you can put any information in there you want. And many of my program shows writings are about how to talk to the flow most effectively to really get what you want. Because maybe you do know how to manifest, but you've never learned how to actually ask for the right things so that you start getting what you want. I hear a lot of questions from people all the time, especially through email. How come I'm not getting what I want? I say, well, how exactly are you manifesting? Okay, now let's flip this over before we get to some of your calls and I do a demonstration of flow dreaming with you. Let's flip this over. I've been talking about moving into the flow, right? Moving into that space and then beginning to put your feelings and emotions in there, around what you want in life. Think of it as pouring something out of you into the energies. Now what happens if the energies instead pour into you? You go in and you, you enter this place, you enter into this flowing state where you are in alignment with the larger forces of life, of God, of source, and you start hearing things back, you start looking, you say, oh, that's interesting. I really am in a place full of information and data. And normally I've been manifesting here, meaning I've been like writing down, like I've been taking a fountain pen and writing down all of my desires. But what if I drop that pin and I just listen instead? Ah, now you are reading the energies. You are reading flow information as it is moving in progress. Perhaps you are even able to look ahead a little bit and see where things are going, see what's out there. This is the heart of empathic intuition. Empathic because it is a kind of understanding, a kind of reading of the energies that relies again on your emotional connection to them, which is the primary force behind manifesting in your flow. Your emotions are what often absorb information back. Here's how it works. You're in your flow state. You're feeling yourself divinely connected with God, with spiritual source moving into your future. It's easy. There's no Resistance. You are a beautiful, developing, growing creative being. You feel yourself absolutely in this place and you say, wait a minute, I'm not going to manifest here right now. I have some questions. Instead, I have some things I'd like to know. I want to know what's going to be the outcome of this thing that I got started or what is someone else thinking about me. I'd like to know what's in their data field right now, what's in their energy field about this situation. What is my boss. I'm going to go visit her right now and see how she's feeling. Because that information is there. That information is there. Everything is there. And you listen and you feel the responses coming back. Sometimes you might hear them, sometimes you might see things. It can be filtered through the rest of your five senses, but it's probably going to come to you through your emotional senses. You'll say, oh, my boss is feeling tired today. She's feeling happy with me, but she feels like I need to help her more in this area. Feeling, feeling, feeling, feeling. All right. Or we're looking ahead and we're. And we're sensing. I started this, you know, I started this program in school. I wonder where it's going because right now it feels so hard. What happens if I let myself sort of drift ahead in this energy? Where am I going? Where is this current taking me? Because it's an in progress current toward my future. Where is it taking me? Oh, I feel it. School begins to get a bit easier, but I find myself switching direction. I almost feel myself being pulled over this way instead of over that way. Oh, interesting. Again, this is coming to me through a variety of sensations being filtered through my mind and consciousness being filtered through my body. I'm reading the data out there as opposed to programming the data out there. That is the fundamental distinction between empathic intuition manifesting now in your mind. Right now you're probably thinking, well, maybe I do a little bit of both. Maybe you do a little bit of both. The way that you can tell is this. Do you say to yourself, I know things in advance. I often feel other people's emotional states. I often get confused about my own mood because I don't know why I'm feeling this way. But I think I might be picking up on someone else. This is showing me or telling me that your empathic intuition is already pretty well developed here. Or maybe it's very potent in your life but not exactly handled. Modify that. Or you might be saying to yourself, I don't know. I'VE always been able to make things happen. It's like, and I create in other areas of my life. I'm just a natural born creator. I make stuff. I come up with ideas and systems for things, or I always have ideas. I could come up with a hundred ideas in a day. Maybe I really do make stuff with my hands. You know, I'm a woodworker. I'm an artist. Perhaps another aspect that would say that you're a natural manifestor is that, oh, things have occurred for you that you've been thinking about a lot. You think about something, you think about something, you're not really trying to manifest it. It's just been on your mind and then bam, it happens. Okay, you might say, well, maybe that's empathic. Maybe I was predicting it. Maybe you were doing a little of both. Unconsciously unaware. Maybe you were feeling it and it was therefore putting itself into your energy. Or maybe it was just already on its way to you and you were picking it up. Who knows? A little bit of both. Anyway, I know I had to wrap this up rather quickly because I do have to go to another break and I have calls and I definitely want to manifest with you on air using a flow dream. So please, please, please, if this intrigues you, follow it up. Think about getting the app or something subscribing to all the past episodes. Think about getting my newsletter and getting that free MP3. I even do private sessions, private coaching work with you, part of my mentorship program or just a one time session. All of these are great ways to dig in and start learning about this flow energy and, you know, doing everything you can with it in your life, using both aspects of it as I do. Okay, we're going to go to a break again. We'll come back. Stephanie, I know you've been waiting, so we'll get to you briefly and then we'll go and do a flow dream together so you can really experience it live. All right, I'm Summer McStravik. The show is called Flow Dreaming.

Hey, it's Summer again and we're on a break. But this is where I catch you up on a couple of things that can really help you go much deeper with flow dreaming. First, if you're wondering how do I flow dream? What is flow Flow Dreaming? Then I have a free kit I created to teach you how to be in flow, how to talk to flow, how to manifest in your flow. Go to flow dreaming.com, enter your email there, and you'll get my tutorial on how to do all of this. I also give you a free Flow Dream to get started with. And this gives you the first step toward creating a freaking awesome life.

And it also puts all of the.

Concepts that you're learning in this podcast into context. So pop in your email on my homepage flow dreaming.com right now.

Why not?

We're on break and I'll send it right to you. Then if you want to go a step further, you can begin expanding your library of Flow dreams, which are these emotionally delayed audios that help you grow your power and manifest your future. This is the stuff. This is what we actually work with, how we do it, and they're on all kinds of topics. You can end fear, you can get unstuck or find your perfect career, be seen, get out of debt, find your soulmate, clear your body of toxins. It's just the list is practically endless. These playlists are very powerful and very effective. In fact, I get emails every day with thank you notes from lottery winners, people who've just gotten married, people who got these huge unexpected bonuses at work, or they've reduced massive amounts of pain or debt, or they've healed themselves either inside or in their body. So please visit the shop@flowdreaming.com and see how you want to begin changing your life. Now back to the show.

Welcome back to Flow Dreaming. I tried to put too much into this show, I think, but I hope it was tantalizing and sort of teased you with a lot of possibilities for where this work can go. Your life. Everything that I've talked about, I've spoken about are things that I have been through, I have experienced, encountered what happened to me, how I figured things out ultimately, so I can share it with you. And my journey has been documented on air over seven years now. Before that, well, well, that was my prior life, I guess. But the last seven years, you can sort of watch and see how things evolve and what I keep encountering as I move forward. And the longer I do this, the more majestic and mind boggling the work that I do becomes. Years ago, I already, you know, skidded over the hump of belief or disbelief or prove it to me, that is long gone. Now it's more a question of, okay, Flo, what do you want me to do next? Where do I go next? I'm just listening, I'm listening, I'm hearing, I'm feeling, I'm waiting, I'm allowing. And then it just happens, happens, happens. My life pretty much shows, you know, what Flow Dreaming has done for me. I Hope that I embody it and sort of exemplify it for people. I should, as a teacher of it. And it's something that you, too, can do. You watch your own life grow and develop and become something majestic and beautiful. Growing, fulfilling, everything that you're looking for. Okay, let's go to Stephanie, our quick, quick call before we do a flow dream. And my apologies to the rest of you for not taking lots of calls today. Again. I just got caught up. You can tell. I get so enthused. Hi, Stephanie. What's up?

Hi, Summer. I want to know. Oh, go ahead.

Oh, no, no. Question, question. Tell me.

I want to see what. What did you. What did you see in my flow that needs to, like, change or anything changes going on?

Mm. Okay, Stephanie, what's the primary thing? Are we talking about work here for you? Let's see.

Work is fine here.

Work? Yeah, work. Oh, there's always that. Mm. Okay. Yeah. The reason I'm asking is because as I feel you, by the way, to people listening, what I'm doing right now is I'm moving into Stu. Stephanie's flow. I'm using my empathic abilities, and yet I'm moving into flow, dreaming flow space with her. I do it instantly now, where I will either manifest for her and start creating, or I'll simply read information for her as needed. The reason that I had to ask. What is it? Is it flow? Is it relationships? Is it what? Is. Because, Stephanie, you feel like you have several different areas all at once that are adding to a general unease in your life. It's like two or three different things that are bothering you. Some family issues, some work issues, some issues within yourself and about yourself. Maybe this is self image issues that are coming up. Weight issues, perhaps? Yeah. So, yeah. Yeah. Okay. So it's like. It's like. It's like you have a stew. Like I'm opening you up like a can, and I'm finding all these different vegetables in here. Well, which one do you want to hear about? Which one do you want to talk about? What I feel happening right now in the field of your work is. Is there some fighting going on there or some people not getting along? Some uncertainty? There just feels like there's a swirl of bumpiness in those energies that's affecting you, and it's making you feel upset. Can you give me more information on what I'm feeling?

Well, there's a job that I'm taking right now with a friend of mine. I haven't started. I haven't started yet, but I Should be starting soon. That might be the case.

Yeah. Okay. Be be aware and pay attention because what I'm sensing is that there is some just like, stuff going on and you're going to start seeing it after a while, the stuff behind the scenes. And I don't know that you will be staying there so long. I feel you're more, you know, someone kind of passing through. It may be what you need for now, but ultimately it's not going to be your calling, which I think you're still looking for. But I really want to go back to what's going on inside you and these feelings about yourself that if I were you and I'm looking at you and I'm feeling you, that's the area I would start with. With your manifesting. Not so much the outside areas about work, the job that you'll be starting, or your family, what's going on there. But I would work within. Feeling better about yourself, feeling happier, Releasing a little bit of that depression and anxiety that comes on to you. Working. Yeah. Working with your weight as well. I would do all of that first because once you raise yourself up a notch, you know, you feel like somebody's turned your knob down low inside. Okay. Once you turn that back up again and start feeling simply better, then those other areas of your life are going to diminish in terms of how difficult they are for you and how much of their time and thought they're taking up. It's kind of like those areas feel big now because you're small. You need to grow so those areas will back down. It's sort of like I'm reading the energy patterns and this is the weight distribution of these things in your life. Because there's a lot going on, more than I can do in just a few minutes with you. All right, Stephanie, thanks for your call today.

Thanks, Summer.

You're welcome. So anyway, I wish with Stephanie I could have gone a little bit deeper. She wasn't a single issue person, though. Poor Stephanie. She's got multiple things going on. But I would zero down into the weight and the self image and the depression. That's where things really need to change first for her. So there, at least she gets a little bit of direction on what to do next, as well as a little heads up on where the job is going to be going for her. Okay, so here we go. A very brief introduction to what your flow feels like. That's all we have time for. Just a sense of getting into that flow, getting into that good, delicious space inside ourselves where Everything is expansive, growing. Right easy. That's flow energy. We like to go there. I go there all the time. So close your eyes with me and follow along. I'm going to paint the picture of the daydream part of it, so you don't have to think up the pictures. You don't have to think of what to do or where to go next. Your job is to feel in this place, to sense the flow. So I'm asking you to do two out of the three parts of the technique, because I'll supply you with the pictures and the words. Okay, Eyes are closed. We're not meditating. Keep your mind active and focused. We're not hypnotizing ourselves or about going outside of ourselves, expanding our energy field, not going into our subconscious. Imagine in your mind right now a beautiful ray of light. A ray of light, like a ray of concentrated sunlight. It's coming down from the sky and it's filtering over the ground, warming, creating a soft, vibrant feeling. Maybe it's coming down through a forest, trees, a beautiful canopy of leaves. This warm light you see, watching it, and you're feeling this light humming, kind of buzzing almost with an energy and aliveness and intelligence, a sense of love. And so you step into this light. You step right into the center of it, and you say, oh, I believe here. This light actually is here for me. And this light begins to glow around you and. And develop and expand until there's no forest around you at all. There's just light everywhere, as far as you can see, billowing off in the distance. Light like clouds, golden and silver. You can see them, twinkling hues and colors, little bits like ice crystals reflecting all the colors of the rainbow swirling around you. You realize you're in a place of pure energy. Pure, beautiful energy. Energy that is unmade. It's unformed. It hasn't come into being anything yet. You are standing at the tip of yourself, at the tip of your life, watching this energy, watching it. And it's very busy. It's very creative. It's listening. It's taking instruction. It's becoming things. It's creating. You can almost see the blueprints that are forming in front of you as things come into being. Situations, people, everything. All of this future. You look down at your feet and there it is. It's unrolling before you. A beautiful white carpet unrolling beneath you. This is your flow. It feels so good here. Feels beautiful here. It feels right. You feel loved. You feel protected. You feel as if you're as close to God as you could possibly be. All around you, you sense something very big and beautiful and mysterious and yet it's also warm and loving and close at the same time. How can it be both? Yet it is. And you are welcomed here. You are wanted here. You can feel cheering, you can feel clapping. You can feel applause saying, yes, be a creator here with us. Be a creator. Be involved. Make something of your life with us. We love to do as much as we can for you. But when you're here and we're working together hand in hand, this is where your life becomes something even bigger and more beautiful and more potent than it is now. This is where you're really drinking all of life. And you say, yes, I will come. Come back here. I will come back to this place again and again. And so you feel yourself beginning to shake off the energies. And then you're going to open your eyes at the count of three, down to one. Recognizing it was just like looking through a telescope and seeing something quite beautiful and knowing you can go there anytime you want.

Three.

Two, one. Eyes open. Now, believe it or not, that was five minutes of time. You feel how fast that went. That is being in flow. The loss of awareness of time, the feeling of unity, of oneness, the feeling of potential. We didn't even do anything in your flow. All we did was go there and sense it. Think of it as standing on the diving board about to spring. So I hope that inspires you. I hope that motivates you to learn more, to dig deeper, to say yes. I want to add this to my program of spirituality in my life. And if so, just go to my website, flow dreaming.com, check out everything that's there. I hope some of you will get the app or subscribe to the archives. Maybe join me in the mentorship program where we talk together, live every day, two weeks.
