Interview by Prime Sarmiento

 

       Christina Ambubuyog is a career changer. She left her corporate job in 2008 to honor her creative and spiritual gifts by launching I Love Intuition-an enlightened company dedicated to show you exactly how to claim your intuition in order to create clarity, authenticity and shortcuts to success.

    In this interview with The Gypsygals, the artsy intuition coach and clairvoyant explains why traveling can be a means to hone one’s spirituality and creativity and how spiritual retreats can change your lives.

 

     Q: Why do you travel?

    A: I travel because I LOVE to indulge in new experiences and explore the nooks and crannies of our planet. I believe that traveling is a Spiritual experience in itself because it opens me up to see the connections through different cultures, heighten my sense of beauty in the world and to feel gratitude and presence in each moment.

Traveling breaks up your every day routine, places you outside of your comfort zone and gives you ways to engage more of your senses. You elevate your awareness when traveling because you tend to want to "take it all in". It invigorates our Soul opening us to more inspiration, creativity and connects us to love.

We travel to places we feel compelled to experience. We take part in activities that moves our Soul. We spend our time the way we choose to spend it. And we do this out of making the most of our travel time. It's important to remember that we also have this choice every single day too.

There's empowerment in that and we can bring that level of engagement to create a life that is meaningful to us whether you're traveling or not.

 

    Q: How can one go on a spiritual journey?

   A: The best way to partake in a Spiritual journey is to know that you are always Divinely guided, protected and will experience exactly what you are meant to in a way that will propel you on your path, purpose and passion.

It's when we let go that we open up to Spirit and the synchronicity that guides us to situations aligned to the intentions we set forth. Be, Feel and Take inspired action seems to always create the most magical travel experiences.

 

    Q: Where did you go in your own spiritual journey? What did you do there.

   A: For my 30th birthday I traveled to Machu Picchu in Peru. I always knew that's where I wanted to be for my 30th birthday and it came true. I spent time meditating in the ruins and connecting with the earth. Did a lot of hiking and also let my intuition guide me to where I wanted to go.

I had no itinerary planned out except for the fact that I wanted to be meditating in Machu Picchu on my birthday and that in itself was a magical experience. The energies are so ancient there and you can really feel the wisdom, creativity and innovation of the Inca people. It was refreshing to breathe that in and bring that back with me.  ###
