Go With Your Gut. . .

You know the saying, "follow your gut"? Scientists have found that our gut area contains nerve endings with enough intelligence equivalent to a dog's brain. Dogs are pretty smart. And, by learning to focus on our gut, which sends all kinds of signals to the body and brain, we can literally follow the path meant for us in this life. The brain and the heart can be swayed, but the gut never lies. It rings true though, doesn't it? How many times do we say we should have followed our gut? Your brain and your heart will mislead you. The brain projects "best possible outcome" (based on what you know in this moment or have been programmed to believe) and the heart is all emotion. The gut has no skin in the game. The gut is your "true north".
