Kinesiology: A Note on Clarity
If you are having difficulty wording a simple yes/no question, consider this an important issue to be faced and something worth spending time to rectify. You have not simply stumbled upon a glitch in your quest to use kinesiology. You have also stumbled upon a glitch in the communication between you and nature. This is not as serious a situation with non-scientists because they have all the steps and procedures to the processes already set for them and they need only do simple testing with nature. But, even as a non-scientist working with co-creative science, you will need to know how to ask some questions. However, for the co-creative scientist, this is a critical situation. You must be able to ask clear and concise questions. You must also develop a good flexibility around questions if you wish to work with nature well. If you can?t even clearly phrase the question, you can?t expect an answer. I have met people who cannot articulate a question. In a workshop they will attempt to ask me something and I can?t figure out what they are asking—nor can anyone else in the workshop. Usually it turns out that they are frustrated because they can?t get any clarity in their own life and are trying to ask me what to do about it.
For those of you who find yourselves in this boat, you have a terrific opportunity to turn that around and develop internal order by learning how to articulate a simple yes/no question. If you do this, you not only develop the tool of kinesiology, you also develop clarity for communicating with nature—and everyone else around you.
If you need to develop yourself in this area, I recommend that you initially devote your attention to learning to ask simple questions and not worry about receiving answers. When you need to ask someone a question, take time to consider what you really want to ask and how it can be most clearly and efficiently worded. It helps to write down the question. In this way, you can visually see your words. If they don?t convey what you want to express, play with the wording. Keep doing this until you feel those words accurately and concisely communicate what you wish to ask. Then go to that person and ask the question. Notice the difference in the quality of how the person answers you. Your clarity will inspire similar clarity in the
response.
Quite often, that frustrating inner confusion we experience exists because we have not had an acceptable framework for the development of mental ordering. Learning to ask questions gives the mind something tangible to work with and, in the process, you learn mind-word-and-mouth coordination. You?ll find that as you develop the ability to clearly articulate a simple question, your inner fog will begin to lift, which in turn will automatically begin to lift your outer fog. Another point: It also will be helpful to focus on your ability to ask simple questions so that you will know how to troubleshoot a question you have asked nature but for which you can?t get a clear answer. You?ll know where your weaknesses in this area are and you?ll be able to review the question to check for a problem.
As you develop internal order, your intuition will become clearer and stronger. You will see that when you ask a simple yes/no question, you will intuitively sense the answer or begin to "hear" nature answer before testing. This is a normal development. I recommend that you continue with the kinesiology testing as a verification that your intuitive or "overheard" answer is correct.
It is also helpful, especially in the beginning, to literally verbalize your questions out loud and not just think them. When we say something aloud, we tend to articulate it better than when we just think it. And I will ask something out loud if I?m a little tired and I need some extra sensory input (sound) to help me keep my focus.
