Honing Discernment

Introduction

In this video, Gabriele, a retired medium based in Germany, shares insights into the theme of “Honing Discernment.” She reflects on the importance of engaging with experiences beyond intellectual analysis, encouraging viewers to connect with their inner resonance, emotions, and instincts.

Discernment and Inner Resonance

Gabriele emphasizes that discernment goes beyond intellectual understanding. She draws a comparison between simply checking a thermometer and personally feeling the temperature. Relying solely on external indicators, like words in a video, may prevent one from fully connecting to the experience. Instead, she suggests feeling into experiences, as this allows for an impression through one’s “inner resonance” or “higher self.”

Communication Styles and Emotional Impact

Gabriele discusses how different styles of speech affect the viewer’s experience and memory. Speakers who deliver information at a fast pace may overload the listener, limiting their ability to process the content deeply. She contrasts this with her own slower speaking style, which she feels aligns with her inner self, allowing for a more profound impact on the listener’s long-term memory.

Experiences in Family Constellations

Reflecting on her first experience in a family constellation, Gabriele recalls how the session left her feeling more grounded and connected to herself. She noticed that her voice tone deepened, and she felt more settled in her heart space. This contrast highlighted the deeper connection available through resonance with the heart, a place she identifies as a significant “truth organ” beyond the intellect.

Observations on Voice and Resonance

Gabriele notes how voice pitch and resonance vary among individuals, relating this to their connection with their inner selves. Higher-pitched voices, she observes, might suggest that someone operates more from their intellect than their emotions. She also reflects on how certain pitches or vocal qualities can be unsettling, indicating possible underlying emotional pain.

Encounter with Artificial Solutions for Inner Peace

Gabriele shares her reaction to a commercial offering a “brain software” solution to achieve inner peace. She found the lack of emotional resonance in the speaker’s voice unsettling and questioned the effectiveness of relying on external devices for inner well-being. Instead, she suggests that inner peace and discernment come from self-awareness and connection with one’s internal experience.

Developing Discernment Through Questioning

To hone discernment, Gabriele encourages asking oneself questions and listening for an intuitive response. She believes the first impression provides an authentic answer before intellectual doubt intervenes. She warns that over-reliance on the mind or rationalizing may obscure the initial, instinctive feeling.

Grounding and Connection to the Earth

Highlighting the importance of grounding, Gabriele describes the benefits of connecting physically with the earth. She mentions that grounding practices, such as standing barefoot, can help to balance the impact of stressful information from external sources. Gabriele also advises viewers to take advantage of every opportunity to ground themselves, as she believes it is a natural way to strengthen one’s discernment.

Concluding Thoughts

In conclusion, Gabriele encourages viewers to cultivate discernment by practicing mindfulness in communication and exploring the emotional resonance of their experiences. She advocates for a balance between intellectual engagement and heartfelt intuition, using both in combination to develop wisdom and a deeper understanding.
