What is happening when things 'don't feel right'?

"It doesn't feel right..."

This feeling is not
necessarily wrong,
nor is it necessarily right.

It simply appears when something, somewhere,
is just slightly out of sync.

For example,
・You've explained it well, but you aren't convinced.
・You chose it carefully, but you feel no excitement.
・You are moving forward, but something is holding you back.

At times like that, we

・think maybe the explanation was too difficult.
・wish we had been more particular about the details when choosing.
・think we are just feeling negative because we aren't seeing results.

Like this,

we try to think more,
try to make a firm decision,
or try to reframe things positively.

But "not feeling right"
is not a problem of logic.

It is often a sign from your intuition.

The words are correct, but the timing is off.

The choice is correct, but the order is off.

The direction is correct, but the method is off.

Sometimes, your intuition notices
a slight misalignment before your mind can explain it.

So, when things 'don't feel right',
that sense of discomfort isn't something to be erased,
but perhaps something you can observe and set aside.

If lately,
you've found yourself in situations where
you don't know the reason, but
you feel like you have to pause for a moment...

Try taking that as a sign that something
not yet put into words is there.

Without leaving that feeling behind,
try checking in on it just a little.

Wondering what might be snagging,
try checking in on it, just a little bit.

When I feel like things 'don't feel right',
I often return to my original position and ask,
'What was it that I wanted to do?'

I observe my thoughts and feelings.

How about you?

Gently,
placing a question within your heart
might be a good thing.

Well then, until next time!
