While Trusting Your Intuition. And today, we are speaking to Sarupa Shah about this.
Sarupa is an award-winning mentor and spiritual guru and the founder of the Soul Agency which
works with entrepreneurs and leaders across the globe who wants to put spirit back where
it matters. Today, Sarupa is going to be sharing with us the seven secrets to making money
and trusting your intuition. So welcome, Sarupa. Sarupa: Hi, great to be here. Melanie: Yes,
it s our pleasure to welcome you today. So Sarupa, in a previous conversation, you happened
to mention that abundance and money has always been something that s come really easily to
you. And I think our audience are going to be very excited about this. So tell us a little
bit about your background and how you ve come to be doing what you re doing. Sarupa: I think
I mean one of the things I think my nickname from my dad when I was little was lucky devil
and we all know about affirmation. And in fact, he opened a shop in Kilburn in London
named after me, Lucky Devil back in the 70s. And that name kind of I think that that always
made me feel like I was lucky devil because brother or sisters didn t have these nicknames.
So I think that that probably helped with my ability to see myself as someone that could
have and do anything that I wanted because affirmations are so important. But actually,
it s always easy for me because I didn even when I was at school having Saturday jobs
and being paid ridiculous amounts of commission in these shops I was working in as a 15, 16-year-old,
I was probably taking home about 80 a week which on a Saturday which people were probably
earning in a week in those days. And the same as at work and it was just because I didn
t believe anything else was potentially improbable. But it did I did have a shift and a change
when I tried to do my own business especially when I go into wanting to work in what we
now are calling more and more heart-centered, conscious kind of businesses where I was really
integrating and bringing in my own spiritual knowledge and wisdom and beliefs into what
I was doing. And that s where the struggles started because it was where I believed that
money wasn t spiritual. And it was wrong for me to be earning, charging for gifts that
I had like healing because I could just help people. It was a gift from God and that s
where all the confusion and muddle started. and I ve had to untangle myself from there
which is where I am now and come back to that place where actually, what you need to thrive
you will get. It s the law of our universe. It s an abundant universe. So it s a never-ending
supply. So that s kind of like my background a little bit with my relationship with abundance.
Melanie: So this toxic thought you had about money being bad, was this like the general
viewpoint around you or where do you think you got those ideas from? Sarupa: I think
it was definitely the spiritual community that I was in because I was just talking to
somebody the other day about this. So it was almost like the spiritual community that I
was into where I would hang out with people where we were in meditation circles or psychic
circles and running workshops and whatever. It was almost like that material world is
so bad and we have something on them because we were spiritual and it doesn t matter that
we were poor. And it was very much Melanie: That s a copout, isn t it? Sarupa: Well, it
s the copout but it s more a lot that people still believe. It s almost like, well, when
the world changes or when 2012 comes, when now it s come and gone, we realized the world
hasn t popped and disappeared. But it was this belief that we will do OK because we
understand. We ve transcended money and it s easy to say that when you haven t got any
and you don t understand how to apply the law of attraction, the law of manifestation,
and how to work with the energy of abundance. It s a very good protection to say, I don
t need it. It s bad. It s man-made and look at what s happening with the banks and look
at what s happening in the corporate world. But it s no different to the religious heaven
and hell belief. But it didn t sit right with me. I mean I was part of that because I wasn
t making any money doing my own when I was running these workshops. I mean it would be
amazing that I would get people on. I loved it and was very good at it. But it wasn t
sustaining me. I had to keep stepping back into corporate consultancy, back into central
government and so on. Melanie: So essentially, you were saying, you weren t charging properly
for these workshops? Sarupa: No. I used to have healing clients that would come home.
It would be really exciting. I tidied my house, turned into as much of a hotel as I could
and it was just amazing, lovely. They d come. It was an hour session. Four, five hours later,
they d leave. They d leave me I think what was then 60 in my pocket. Melanie: You weren
t charging. Sarupa: So I was afraid of charging for the hour. Back then 60 would have been
great for a straight forward just healing session, for me starting out. But so nearly
a whole day later, they d go. I d feel a bit pissed off thinking, Oh my God! That s like
my whole day gone. But then I d opened my purse and think, Oh, but I ve got 60 cash.
So it s all this kind of like excitement and like disappointment and then also, would come
the kind of guilt of, But I ve just been paid and I shouldn t feel bad. It was so confusing.
Melanie: So what was the wakeup call for you then? Sarupa: Well, it was always there because
I couldn t understand - I kept thinking, Well, when I go back to the corporate world where
I m earning 800 a day for consultancy, where I m earning 60 for a whole day of healing.
But those 800 a day were helping me go off and train with great spiritual teachers in
America. I was before people were traveling the world for mentoring and things like that
which is so fashionable now, I was off working with Denise Linn and Doreen Virtue and just
traveling around. And I thought well and I kept thinking, Well, there s something odd
to look at the material world and the place where I m getting this money and keep thinking
it s bad. And if you keep labeling money as bad and judging it as bad then it s going
to remain bad and I m going to have a very drudgery relationship with it. So it was the
fact that I always call myself as spiritual anorak. I m geek wanting to get underneath
it, wanting to peel the layers of it and say, What is really going on? What am I creating?
Because at the end let s not forget, one of the first things we learned in when we decide
to step out in any sort of spiritual development or conscious teaching is that we create our
own reality. So again, even trying to get underneath that was, What am I creating here?
And actually look at the opportunity that money is enabling me to do. And that was all
it wasn t like I had a Eureka moment that one day I woke up an angel flew into my room
and explained to me everything. It was a much slower but very powerful kind of thing that
I ve been rolling uphill that started to get a momentum to go downhill so I could have
this lovely, lovely flow. But there was a lot of stuff both personal and the fact that
actually, a lot of what I was working through is stuff that my consciousness is plugged
into. Melanie: Yup. Sarupa: There are still people that I talk to and we all have it in
us whether we think we have or not. If we re not calling in money as when we need it,
then there are issues for us to deal with. It s as simple as that. It s not the world.
It s not the economy. It s not anything outside of us. It s our relationship with our power,
with our abundance, with our intuition. Beryl: And Sarupa, can I ask you Melanie: And at
that point carry on. Ask her the question I was going to ask her. Go on. Beryl: OK.
I was going to ask you, when you talk about the mass consciousness here, there s a lot
of fear around money, isn t it? It s almost like there s fear of having money because
it leads to success and then that may lead to a big change in your life. So there are
kind of layers of stuff going on here, would you say? Sarupa: So many layers. There s fear
of having it I think which we can all probably pinpoint in our lives when we have that fear
of success. There s fear in shame and guilt of not having it. Document of those who have
got it because I ve caught myself out, this is when I was a lot, lot younger thinking
looking at friends thinking, They ve got this really flash job that they re spending their
money. I would never spend my money on that. Melanie: Yes, we hear it a lot. Sarupa: Yeah,
and may all do and we may all even secretly have a flash thought when you see somebody
who s won the lottery and gone and spent it on a quadbike or something or quadbike for
the whole family. I think there was a guy that might have done that. I thought, oh my
God! I d never spend my money on that. And I used to almost believe and affirm out to
the world that if I get money, I ll do all this charitable work. And I realized this
is my spirit team. So they were saying to me, So you want to attract money and then
give it all away? They were saying, Where do you fit in to this equation? Beryl: Yes.
Sarupa: So the cool thing about balance so that mass consciousness does have the fears.
It has the judgment but it have more than anything the energy of actually, m not good
enough to get it. I perhaps don t deserve it. Perhaps there are other people more deserving
of it. Perhaps I ve got really bad karma. Perhaps it s just not my size to have money.
And all of those things are an illusion and are impacting on the actual truth. And I kind
of hear abundance across the universe like it s a constant hum. It s the sound that resonates.
And it s there for us to move into or fight against. Beryl: Sorry, Melanie. You go. Your
turn. Melanie: No. Well, I was really going to say because this creates the platform now
for you, Sarupa, to just define for our listeners, intuition so we can talk a bit about it and
how important it is to what you re describing. Sarupa: OK. So I ll just ll do that and I
just want to kind of maybe share my perception of what money is as well because for me money
is energy. Melanie: OK. Sarupa: And part of the I guess to kind of I guess finish that
little bit of where I used to think like a lot of people do and still do and still sometime
half do or little bit do that money is bad, man-made, and all of that. It was probably
I can t remember, a good few years ago that one of my spirit teams said to me, You do
know money is crystallized spiritual energy? I thought, Oh, OK. I never thought of it like
that. And I said, What energy, the specific energy? s the energy of love, which is why
and it was like as soon as he said that, for me it was like, Oh my goodness, energy, love,
money. And all of a sudden, that s where the basis of a lot of my teaching comes from.
And it makes sense if you think about, if we re not good enough, if we don t feel like
we re good enough, we re not going to attract the money. If we re not in love with ourselves,
it s nothing narcissistic or egotistical about any of this. If we re not in balance and harmony
with ourselves that money won t come in. So that s where my teaching about money comes
in. And for me, intuition which is again is something that has been s a gift for anyone,
men or women. And I ll talk about that a little later. But for me, it s been one of those
very highly attuned gifts since I was very, very young. It s just something that has been
very natural to me. And obviously again, it s probably when I left the university and
start getting into work and stuff like that, you kind of start connection a little bit
s very disconnected. Well, I was certainly very disconnected from that kind of that part
of me because it hadn t really featured in my university life while I was going through
a parties, gigs, and whatever else we were doing, or working on assignments for two hours
because they were late. And intuition so again, I have to go back to the journey to reconnect
to my intuition. And I ve realized that it s an ongoing journey. And I always like to
kind of describe it by breaking up words in [0:14:03] [Inaudible] like I m learning to
be me. I m learning to be abundant. I m learning to be powerful. And increasingly, I m beginning
to realize intuition and power are really linked because intuition, some people have
described it as a voice of God. I would say it s the voice of my power. It s the voice
I have. And we can get into the philosophical of is God separate to any of us. We now all
got that energy within us. So it s this inner guide and mentor. It s the part of us that
we can turn to that gives us the direction for our life to continuously be more, have
more, and do more. So it s a very powerful gift that everybody equally has potential
to access in their own lives. And it s one of those things that I hear s almost insulting
to talk about intuition to women sometimes I find. I often get invited to talk about
it and I can sometimes spot people in the audience getting a funny and a bit narky about
it thinking, Of course, I m intuitive. I m a woman. It s a woman s domain to be intuitive.
Well it is equally as it is a man. And I always think if your life has struggle in it, if
there are things where you re not understanding how or why they have occurred, then the truth
is, the simple truth is your intuition, you re not being guided by your intuition. Melanie:
You re not listening to that inner part. Sarupa: You re not listening to it or you re listening
to something else that you think is intuition. Intuition will it doesn t mean that intuition
I mean if you listen to your intuition, your life will be easy and effortless. You will
still have things to resolve. There will still be consequences to resolve. You may still
have to go through some stuff where you have to squeeze out a bit of you that s been carrying
that, I m not good enough, I m not deserving, and I m not worthy. So you still have to face
the parts of you that are out of balance. With your intuition that guides you, it doesn
t become a place where you get stuck or trapped. Beryl: Can I come in there, Sarupa? Because
I have I understand completely what you re saying there. However, I have listened to
some business women who have had some business disasters. And one particular woman I can
remember saying, I no longer trust my intuition because I thought I felt with every cell in
my body that was the right thing to do. And then it s gone wrong. And she had great difficulty
shifting her mindset away from shame and failure and all of those things into a place where
she would be ready to have another go. So my question to you really is, how do you help
people who have really stopped trusting their intuition because they ve had such a disaster
with it? Sarupa: Well, it s interesting because that actually is under my secret number one
that I want to share with you. Beryl: Oh, let s go straight into it then. Sarupa: It
s really interesting because when you think you ve been listening to your intuition or
when you have and it feels like it has led you to somewhere and in some way, it doesn
t matter whether it s your intuition or not. But if you feel like you ve been led somewhere
that is just like oh my goodness, disasters. I ve lost money. I ve lost whatever. I ve
lost my house. I ve lost my business or something or it doesn t even have to be of dramatic
or of extreme as those. Melanie; Whatever you feel precious about. Sarupa: Yeah, or
just the fact that you ve just spent a year working on a project that suddenly has just
come to a dead end or ever two weeks, three weeks and you ve given everything to. It what
happens when the chips are down is people will blame their intuition. What they re using
is they re blaming themselves. It s a musket to cover. And the tendency for us is when
things are down. So if bills amounting up and money hasn t been coming in, we almost
think, Well, we can t use our intuition anymore. We haven t got that luxury. We have to get
very mental about it. So actually, when I work with people, this leads me also me on
to secret number two which is about developing and nurturing and growing your relationship
with intuition, is to get people back into that because intuition is I said it s about
direction but it also gives you the understanding of OK and it helps you learn how to be in
acceptance because there are some things we have to experience for our own karmic rebalancing.
There are things that we have to experience because that s what we needed to do in order
to get to somewhere else. And when you follow your intuition, you realized, OK. You can
start to believe and trust in one of the other great spiritual teachings that everything
happens for a good reason, which is quite difficult to stomach when it doesn t feel
like good in any way. That s where I certainly for myself and I teach other people to draw
on their intuition, use that power. Go deeper because it s everything. It s an invitation
for good. It s always good and therefore if you can t find the good, the invitation needs
to go deeper and deeper and deeper until you can find that place of connection. So actually,
it s a powering up not a powering down. And unfortunately, the example you give, it s
what a lot of people do. And I ve certainly done that in my life. And again, it was conversation
with one of my spiritual groups a couple of days ago, giggling about the time when I because
I have always had this spirit team around me and when I felt when I went to a particular
bad phase in my life, I decided that I wasn t going to talk to them. I didn t trust them.
I didn t like them. And I knew they re there. And it was just like, m not talking to you.
I know you re there. I m going to ignore you. And I t was just a very in some way, it was
very childish but it was a protection then because I just thought, Well, if you say something
and it all goes wrong, what will I do? But it takes that s perseverance. It s dedication.
And it s back to trusting the fact that actually, I need to follow what I know is right for
me in my life. Intuition is something that everybody can access but not every people
will not people will make a choice of whether they want to or whether they decided they
ve had enough and they want to follow something different. Beryl: I think it s really valuable
what you re saying there that tapping into our intuition does not mean to say that we
re going to have this perfect life. We won t. But there is something about trusting that
intuition that whatever it takes you, it s the right place even if it doesn t kind of
look that way and it s not what you ordered, somewhere in there, when you say go deeper,
I think that s a very, very valuable thing to say. Sarupa: I don t like the word perfect
even too much because again, with that comes so much judgment. I think the biggest thing
that following your intuition does, it does lead you to money. It does lead you to all
the things that you want and it takes you to the route that s the best route for you.
And it does make life effortless and easy. So for me, if I m launching something or I
m launching an event or a program or a teleclass or something and it s happened where you think
no one paid for program where nobody signed up and I m thinking, well, I followed my intuition.
So I follow my intuition again. I don t let that kind of immobilize me. So I go to my
intuition and go, What s going on? What have I missed? Not in a blame way. But what have
I missed? What if they re here, where my power needs to be up? Or is this something that
I can let go of because whatever I needed to learn and complete through that process
has happened? And if I get it, I get my download and it s like, fine then I ll know what to
do. Rather than where I see some women where things haven t worked out, it s almost like
the world has caved in or somebody have taken the floor away from them because it s like,
m a failure. It hasn t worked. And it s like, well, if we keep playing those patterns again,
we re not going to really hear our intuition anyway. Beryl: So I hear you there say women
and I brought that subject up, I know. But what is it about women that seem to need this
kind of help more than men or am I making a judgment there? Sarupa: I think perhaps
that s a judgment a little bit but I mean it might be linked to the community that we
kind of hang out in more so that it s more women community than we re going to notice
that more. But I think there are some other layers to it. One is that perhaps we are needing
to awaken that aspect of ourselves. Heal that aspect of ourselves. There have always been
shifts in how society has lived on earth. It s been male-oriented or female-oriented.
It s not and we re trying to there is a s about balance. It s not about anything else.
But it s another one of the little secrets that I was going to share that links to this
because s an interesting thing because I don t think it I don t really like to take things
down into the sexist whether it s about men or women. I think we confuse feminine energy
and think that that means it s about women. Beryl: OK. Sarupa: So intuition might be that
it s nature and it s frequency feminine but that doesn t mean it s anything to do with
women only. And I think there s a real confusion that s going on and it s illusion and basically,
a whole load of nonsense. But it s a feminine energy which is just its frequency which means
that one of the ways to tap into it and especially when you re thinking about it in a way that
s very practical in our lives, we re talking about business and calling in more money,
is to use therefore, the more feminine energy not female as in women activities, meditation,
journaling. And again, it s one of those I call it a secret because it s a secret that
people pretend to not know but tend to do. And I have this with a lot of my clients.
I have this Become a Powerful Manifestor course which is a one to one kind of ten-part program
where people are learning my manifestation process. And part of t it is like you re signing
up, commit to dedicated, absolutely fantastic. Journaling is every single day. When we meet
for a session, I ll say, How did the journaling go or how did your affirmations go? All right,
all right. And then and that s when I realized, yeah, you haven t done it. Oh no, I m doing
it. And then a little bit down the conversation because actually, I probably only did it the
night after our last call two weeks ago and only said the affirmation this morning. So
we kind of believe we re doing these things because we know about them. And then if there
are three really annoying two annoying words, I know, I know. I do. I know. I ve done it.
And it s like, there s nothing to prove. There s never anything to prove and there s never
any reason to try and control or coerce anyone. And that s certainly not what intuition is
about. But it is about actually being committed to this. So this is one of the reasons why
people perhaps people think it s the fact that they perhaps don t trust their intuition
and trust is part of it. But I think it s people don t actually access it deliberately.
They don t spend that time journaling is developing the relationship with yourself. It s hearing
yourself. It s hearing what s going on. A great exercise I gave to women is every now
and then just look in the mirror. I often have a little I never used to understand why
women carry little mirrors in their handbag. I would always, ve done my makeup. I don t
want to do it again. Or sit on [0:26:25] [Inaudible] looking at yourself and I think how bizarre.
But now I do for that reason that I can actually look in the mirror. Pretend I m looking at
my makeup and just have a little check in of how you re feeling? We ask ourselves how
we re feeling. What s really going on? How can I make this more joyous for me? How can
I make this so it feels better so my energy feels more juice rather than zap? And all
these little bits where intuition can just come in and just support you and help you
to be more and have more of an abundance experience in whatever you re doing. So I always say,
that s a really good way to kind of start checking in. If you did it every hour for
the next 48 hours, I think you d learn so much more about yourself. Beryl: And that
s actually Sarupa, can I ask can I just interject there? That s quite a shift for most people
because many people especially women are very good at talking themselves down but that s
a big shift that you just start questioning yourself which is very, very empowering. Sarupa:
Incredibly empowering. And I always say also, I mean one of the fears women have when they
work with the exercises, Yes. But then I realize, I hate this and I hate being with my sister
for coffee and I don t like this and I don t like doing this bit of work. And I say,
well, this isn t about finding out that you don t like everything and therefore saying
to your sister or your best friend, Actually, I really, really dislike this, the coffee
afternoon that we have every week or every other day. I dread it. I don t like talking
to you on the phone. Da, da, da, da. s not about that because it s about saying, how
can you be more? How can then it s checking and saying, How can I change this? How can
I change this person? s not always about and I think this comes back to a fear, Beryl,
that you were mentioning. Fear of success. People have this fear of there is a fear of
intuition. What happens if I do discover that I want to go off here and live in a different
country? But you don t have to and there are ways of making it happen that are much more
abundant in terms of inclusive. It s not a choice between either or. It s like I either
meet and have a coffee and suffer or don t. It s an and. And we can change that. Maybe
we change the coffee to a lunch. Maybe we change it to walking the dog together. It
s empowering yourself which is so important and not feeling like anything is backing you
into a corner. Beryl: Fascinating. I think I ve taken you off your numbers there. I think
you got as far number two. Melanie: Yeah. In fact, if you can remind us of one and two
and then go on to three Beryl: It s so fascinating. Melanie: Yeah. Sarupa: And we ve just touched
on one of the other numbers but I ll just recap on that. The number three is that if
you don when you get intuitive hunches and we will have them, you ignore them. You let
your logic come in. And I m not here to say that logic isn t good. I think ultimately,
it s a partnership, a marriage, or a union between logic and intuition. It merges into
one when we stop seeing it as this separate, two separate things. We live in a logical
world. I have to follow logic but I want to be intuitive. But when you don t follow your
intuitive hunches because you let fear win or you let doubt creep in and things like
that, what you re really saying on an energetic level is that you re not trusting yourself.
And when you say that you re not trusting yourself you re broadcasting that out into
the world. And when you re trying to be in business particularly when you re in a business
and you see yourself as having an affinity to the spiritual arts and that you re here
to bring about some kind of change and shift in mass consciousness and people but you re
broadcasting out this fear of, I don t particularly trust myself always. People are unconsciously
and through yours and theirs subconscious picking up those fears which is why they ll
probably say, I kind of like what you re doing but I don t want to pay you. They won t put
their finger on why they don t want to pay you. It s where the law of attraction is working
from, that subconscious. So if you re not trusting you and your intuition, it is a little
bit like if you don t love yourself how can somebody else? If you don t trust yourself
to follow your intuition and to be powerful, how can somebody else put their trust in you?
So it s another so it s a secret. It s a logic to it. But it s saying, Well, start following
your intuitive hunches. Start to be bold and start to be braver. So that really does have
a big impact. The other thing about intuition is if you keep this is secret number four,
if you keep having to check in on the same thing, so if I m checked in this morning on
a program I want to create. I think I want to launch this. And I think great! And I start
writing the copy for it. If I m then writing the copy, checking, and going, Is this really
right? Should I really be doing this? Is this the right program or should I be doing something
else? And I keep asking the same question. It s a little bit like the scenario that I
ve used as an example before. And I did go through this phase myself where I could not
make a decision without looking at my angel cards and then I d have to keep checking,
is that the card I wanted? It was always like is he the one? And until I got the soul mate
one I thought, Whoa! Thank God, he is. Beryl: Manipulation. Sarupa: Yeah. That s if you
re not feeling sure. You re fearful of the information that you re getting because you
do think, Maybe I m crazy. Maybe it s wrong. Maybe it s not real. Because how do you describe
the voice of intuition? People ask me, I d say, You just know in a knowing but you can
practice. But when you but if you are having to keep checking in then reality is that it
wasn t your intuition guiding you at any point. You need to get into a space. And I teach
this on my intuition program that runs a couple of times a year about how to get into that
space and really check in and taking what you get. But if we don t get what we want
if we don t get the answer that we think we want because we ve already put an expectation
on it and we ll keep asking. And then we ll let [0:32:44] [Inaudible]. And our power is
off. And when our power is off, it comes back to the other secret that I just shared. We
re not trusting ourselves. We re exuding this lack of power out and impacting on people
coming to us. Beryl: So that was number four? Sarupa: That was number yup, four. So I can
come on to number five which we ve just touched on, the one where we re saying about deliberately
meditating, journaling, and actually, nurturing that relationship. It s like a friend. If
you ignore a friend, it might be a little bit difficult or a little bit like you ve
got to get back to where you were if you haven t really if you ve ignored your friend for
a good couple of years or you ve lost touch and you re kindling. It s very easy to get
back to. So it doesn t matter if you haven t been journaling or meditating or really
consciously connecting to your intuition. It s very easy but it does need that nurturing.
Beryl: Just in a nutshell, tell us what journaling is, just in a nutshell because some people
weren t have heard of journaling. Sarupa: Yeah. So journaling, it s like keeping a diary
but not quite. I say to people, s just where you spend a bit of private time on your own
writing anything. So it could be and I say for the purposes of keeping the practice alive,
it could be like a dear diary, what you did, how you felt, whatever. But it might be that
it just it could suddenly be taking you off on a tangent, on a collection of thought.
It could be some inspiration. It could just be like I sometimes when I don t have anything
to write, I ll say, I don t know what to write. Then I ll start to say, Well, how am I feeling?
How am I feeling about this? How am I felling about tomorrow? s just me having that me time
with a pen and paper, never with a computer, never it is something paper and a pen. I love
beautiful journals. I have journals that I buy, that have taken me a few years to actually
write on them. I just had my little worst. Beryl: And in the previous conversation that
we had, you talked about how you looked back in journals in more than ten years ago. Sarupa:
Oh gosh. Beryl: Long, long, I think 1991 you were talking about. Sarupa: I keep all my
journals. I ve even got my diaries. I was obviously as a child, I ve got my diaries
from childhood. Beryl: So, tell us about the power of going back and rereading them some
years after you ve written them. Sarupa: Not necessarily going back and reading them. Quite
often, that s not the purpose of doing them. Beryl: OK. Sarupa: Unless you re somebody
who writes memoires. It s the journaling energetically. It s about detoxing. It s about grounding.
It s about anchoring. So when we even when we meditate, I always say, journal about it
afterward because if you had an amazing meditation where you ve had an amazing experience or
got some inspiration. It s a little bit like a dream. If you don t put it somewhere, it
s kind of almost gone. And it stays in that etheric realm, from energy realms and it needs
to have an anchor so the pen and paper, pencil and paper to writing it down actually brings
the energy down. The reason but going back on it, the reason I did was because I teach
about it and it s quite interesting for me when I was pulling my manifestation program
together to see all the different ways that I ve been manifesting of how I have different
journals. I have a manifesting journal. I have a journal for my meditation. I have a
journal for the kind of private me thoughts where the inspiration is collected. But the
reason necessarily, it s not about using it to go back but sometimes you might need to
go back because you ve had you think, Well, I had an idea a couple of weeks ago that I
wrote down. And you can t find it in your brain so you go back to your journal. Beryl:
And sometimes, it might surprise you sorry. I m just going to say sometimes you might
be surprise when you look back and read things that you wanted to create but have forgotten
about. And then suddenly, you notice them in your life today. Sarupa: Sometimes I do
get clients who read back so they can realize how far they ve come because we also allow
ourselves, we focus on what we haven t achieved, what we haven t done where we just maybe repeating
the same patterns. And people don t acknowledge, Actually, I ve come quite a long way. There
s been a big shift. All this things amounted to a big shift. Sometimes you need to go back
to remind yourself when you re kicking yourself not having been good [0:37:21] [Inaudible].
Melanie: So going back to number four, which is the indecision and being scared to make
a decision, is that largely because people are focusing on what could go wrong? Sarupa:
They are. But it is but more than that, it s linked to the fact that people want to control.
Melanie: OK. Sarupa: So we re actually all more controlling than we perhaps even understand.
So which is why like this angel card thing, I wanted to get the soul mate card. If I got
myself a date, he was the one I wanted to hear that and that was that. And until I got
that, I was not happy. But there s need for control and it s perhaps that somewhere in
us, we know we re not listening to our intuition. It s not our intuition that s guiding us.
But there s such a disconnect from we know that on a very deep level but it s not kind
of filtered into the more kind of everyday consciousness. So when I start to get into
that place if it ever happens, I kind of think, Right. I walk away from whatever I m doing
and go and just clear my head and ask the question again or try and figure out again
back where it s asking me to go deeper. [0:38:50] [Inaudible] teaching it, it really is because
they re not sure that it s their intuition. It s doubt. And they wanted to get they wanted
to be a certain way. I only decide of what my life to be like this and I m not sure that
I want everything to prove that I can [Inaudible]. If I m not right, I maybe wrong which means
I am all the terrible things that I think I am, undeserving, not worthy, bad person.
Melanie: So hide under a rock. Beryl: And I think the thing with control is that often
people don t realize how they limit themselves by this control. They wanted exactly to be
in this kind of picture. And that limits you, doesn t it? And that s quite hard to think
that expansively now. Sarupa: Well, it limits you and it limits other people because it
means that because everybody kind of bounces off each other s energy. So if you re controlling
and limiting yourself which does come from a place of lack and the lack of trust in the
abundance of the universe really, we might know it academically but we re not really
living it. So when we re like that, other people s reactions to us are like that on
energy levels, more jarred than they need to be. And when we suddenly change, people
that we had jarring experiences where those just uncomfortable relationships with either
they can disappear so we don t have to have those relationships or they just suddenly
evolved and changed because everybody is connected to everybody in that way. We re always reacting
to that energy flow, that kind of broadcast that I m talking about. So again, it s where
the law of attraction demonstrates itself quite well. And if we are bringing in luck
and controlling, it does impact on the money supply because it just Beryl: Yup, bound to.
So what number Melanie: We re on to six now. Sarupa: Number six is education. Melanie:
Education. Sarupa: Yeah. This is that thing where I m saying earlier where some women
will say to me, My goodness! Of course I m intuitive. I m a woman. And I follow my intuition
all the time. And then you say, Well, OK. So how are things going? And they say, ve
got no money. I ve got all these things. No one is coming to my programs and my business
is struggling. And I m thinking, Well, you re not really there s something mismatched
with your intuition. But people are afraid to say, Well, perhaps I want to go and learn
how to be more intuitive, how to act like this. And that s what I mean by education.
For me, it s an ongoing. It will never end. I always think, if it got to a point where
my spirit team said to me, That s it! You ve done it. There s nothing left for you to
do. I just think, Oh my God! [0:41:38] [Inaudible]. Beryl: True. Sarupa: Our planet is just a
pin drop in the big scheme of things as we are. There is so much more continuously and
abundance by its very nature is never-ending, it s limitless. There are no barriers to it.
So there are no barriers to how deep we can go and how much more we can learn, how much
more of us we can let out into the world. And it s the same with money. It s the same
with intuition. It s the same with any of these kind of divine parts of our divine inheritance
as I like to call them. There is something that we re all divinely given. If it s not
working for you, if it s not activated, if you feel you re ready to go deeper with it,
there s no shame in saying, Hey, I m going to go and work on my intuition. I work on
it every single day, not just with the methods I ve spoken about but deliberately with my
spirit team. It s like OK, here s another lesson. This is how we learn. And lucky for
the people I teach, it comes through in my teaching too. But it s a key area. And when
we ve identified an area that we want to grow in, if we don t do anything about it, what
we re really saying again energetically is that, I don t deserve to [0:42:58] [Inaudible]
myself in this area. I ve identified it but I m now going to run away from it. And that
have a direct impact on your money flow. How you support yourself impacts on how money
can come to you because money is the energy of love, if you re not supporting yourself,
you energetically turned your back on yourself and say, No, no, I don t need it. I ll be
fine. And you ve gone back into this slightly controlling lacking ways. The flow of money
finds it very hard to get to you. So it s something that is bigger than just even this
topic, the area of how you support yourself because it has a very, very significant relationship
with money. Beryl: And how you do one thing is how you do everything. So if you re feeling
lack in your money, there s probably issues in other areas of your life too. Sarupa: Absolutely.
At the end of the day, money is part of the abundance story. But the reason why I believe
that the reason why it s a topic that s talked about is because hey, we need it in the world
we live in. We need it. We need to have access to it. But it s also one of the easiest energies
to master more than health, more than all the other areas of abundance. And when we
can heal that rift with money and love and that energy, it will of course impact on everything.
If we feel good and money flow into us, we can start to learn how to focus on that energy
to feel good about health and how to change our health more easily and readily. Beryl:
Indeed. Sarupa: Well, absolutely. Melanie: And number seven? Sarupa: Ready for number
seven? It s more kind of a summary I guess, number seven but it s kind of a really important
point that when you are following your intuition, it will lead you to abundance. It doesn t
lead you to a place of fear. It doesn t lead you to a place of ego or pomp or pride or
anything like that. It doesn t lead you to a place of being richer. It doesn t lead you
to anything other than to be who you are meant to be, you and your potential. It leads you
to all the great riches that this life has always and continuous to happen. So it is
an amazing gift for both women and men to spend focusing on because when you start to
follow your intuition and ask about things, nothing [0:45:38] [Inaudible]. Beryl: You
just lost that last little bit. Can you repeat that, Sarupa? We just lost that last little
bit. Sarupa: From where did you lose me? Beryl: Yeah, it s difficult to pick up. Sarupa: If
you follow your intuition, it will lead you to abundance. Beryl: That s it. Sarupa: It
won t lead you to being reckless. It won t lead you to fear. It won t lead you to anything
that gives that makes you feel like too much pride or anything like that. Beryl: OK. Melanie:
It will take care of you. Beryl: Can I just come in there with one point though? Just
to play devil s advocate with the lucky devil, I hear you say, it won t lead you to fear.
In my experience, sometimes I have felt fear when I ve been going into change. On one level,
I know that change is good for me. The change has been good for me. But it also brings up
some fear as I move into a place of abundance. So when you say it doesn t lead you into fear,
can you kind of help us understand s about moving up your comfort zone is OK. Sarupa:
Yeah, it won t lead you to danger and it won t lead to being reckless. So the fear that
you feel is stuff that would need to be resolved. So that includes, OK. I m going move in the
way that my intuition is guiding me. This fear would come up. Let me work with reducing
that, resolving it, get underneath it and then letting it go. So that s something. But
I always say, a little bit of knee knocking is good. You re growing. In the end, the knee
knocking will go grow with joy. At the moment, we still believe in sayings that full of still
support. No pain no gain. I can t learn to believe that. I don t want that in my energy
at all because I grow through love. I don t need to grow through pain. So I guess the
better word is that it won t lead you to danger. But if the fear is coming up, again, you have
to check in with your intuition. What s this fear? Is it a warning? Is it a fear? Is there
something that I need to do? But if the fear is walking alongside you if you re moving
then it s your invitation to just work on it, resolve it, and move between. Beryl: Yeah.
Sarupa: It comes up like anything comes up because it s ready for release. Beryl: So
transition isn t always comfortable but it is OK. And that s all it is. It s just that
moving through change. Sarupa: Change, it might not feel comfortable but you can make
it comfortable. Melanie: And I suppose the earliest step is lay the platform for making
it comfortable when the real transition kicks in. Sarupa: But we re always in transition.
I think people are waiting. This is the thing that people are waiting for the big *** in
their life from being [0:48:42] [Inaudible] down and if I follow this path, this is it.
There will a point of no return. Actually, if that s what you re thinking and what you
re continuously attracting for you through your thoughts, it s all very gentle and amazing
and beautiful and effortless to believe. And that s what we need to be plugging into more.
Beryl: Yeah, because there s nowhere to get to, is there? We re just on this constant
journey. Sarupa: Well yeah. It s just the journey will continue. Beryl: OK. Melanie:
So for the listeners for whom this is a completely different way of thinking, who perhaps see
this more as an intellectual topic, what would be the first thing you could recommend that
they could try to begin to move into this area? Sarupa: I ve shared checking in. Try
checking in over the 48-hour period. Be a little bit contrived about it and deliberately
try and do it every hour or a couple of hours and go to the bottom [0:49:59] [Inaudible].
Beryl: We just lost you there, Sarupa. Melanie: We lost you again. You re going to have to
say that whole sentence. Beryl: Just adjust your mic towards your mouth a little bit.
Melanie: That whole paragraph again. Sarupa: I ve already shared about the checking in.
So I would say doing that 24, 48-hour and be contrived about it. So speak through it.
I think that will start to help you build a relationship with yourself which will help
you form a trust with yourself. And the second thing that we ve touched on which is really
powerful is journaling. I think start that s about starting the relationship with yourself.
Your intuition is your inner wise guide, mentor, and teacher. And to hear it, you need to start
hearing yourself first. Melanie: And how would you help people to distinguish between their
intuition and the noise that can sometimes be overwhelming? Sarupa: I don t think we
re going to cover that in today s talk. Melanie: OK. Sarupa: There are techniques and it is
also about just s about practicing. It s about practicing. It s about saying you re OK with
falling on your bun a few times or falling off the bike. There are some very clear processes.
And when I work with people, because of my level of intuition, I ll know when they re
telling me what they re getting for their intuition or where it s coming from, what
s happening so I can guide them and help them get into a more powerful place. Melanie: Right.
Beryl: So on that point, being mindful of the time, we don t want to take up too much
of your time, Sarupa, where can people find out more about what you do and engage with
you a little bit more? Sarupa: So, you can find my website, SarupaShah.com. You can come
along and have a look there. If there are any current events or programs running, you
ll get all the details there. You can sign up there to be part of my newsletter which
I send out two, three times a month with articles and so on. You can find me on Twitter and
it s nice and easy, Twiiter.com/SarupaShah. I m very active on social media and Twitter.
You can find me on Facebook, on my business page which I absolutely love. Probably, I
m more in love with Facebook than Twitter which is Facebook.com/SarupaShahTheSoulAgent.
And I m also just launching a new blog because I ve been just upgrading what I ve been doing
which has got some fabulous articles on it around this sort of topic particularly around
money, intuition, sabotage, how to be powerful, and how to use and channel all of that energy
into creating the business and the life that you had a dream that was possible once. And
that would be the soulagentblog.com. So there are just lots of different ways. People can
email me at Soul@SarupaShah.com. If people have got questions or want to find out how
they can really open up to a new chapter in their relationship with intuition then by
all means, make contact. Beryl: Well, thank you so much, Sarupa, for sharing those seven
secrets today. I for one is certainly going to spend a little bit more time talking to
my intuition. I m going to get that hand mirror out of my handbag. And it has been absolutely
fascinating and I hope that maybe you ll come back again and share more with us because
I know that you have much more that you could share with us. Beryl: If you re watching this
on any kind of social media, then please feel free to share it with all of your friends.
