In
this episode, Bernhard and Laura discuss the difference between
discernment, judgment, and intuition in regards to spiritual work and
truth-seeking. They discuss the difference between intuition, gut
feelings, and head-centric thinking, as well as the importance of
emotional intelligence, a still mind, and compassion in order to access
deeper levels of intuition and how to apply critical thinking without
falling into analysis paralysis. In
the second part, they discuss the idea of judgment and how our
judgments are often fed by projections, misunderstandings, and how these
judgments may also be a trauma response and/or shadow projection. They
also discuss how to be discerning with regards to the information
overload of the internet and within the current marketplace of
spirituality and “conspiracies”, and why it’s important to be discerning
with ourselves and our true intentions, especially when we are
truth-seeking, the issues of social media, distractions, along with much
more.
