Description

Intuition can be increased, and you can do it with these three easy suggestions 


YES, THE RATIONAL MIND IS IMPORTANT, BUT IT IS NOT ALWAYS ACCURATE WHEN IT COMES TO NAVIGATING THE WORLD.

Intuition. One of my favorite topics. Right up there next to  Mindfulness. 

I love “intuitive nudges”. “Gut instincts” “intuitive flashes”, that “6th sense” and just the plain ol…” I know something is not right, or off but I can’t put my finger on it.” 

WHAT IS INTUITION? 

The two things intuition doesn’t have are facts and data.

Intuition is a sense of internal knowing about a person, event, situation, and yourself. 

Theories about how intuition works.

I’ll give you my theories. 

I believe intuition is based in the subconscious mind. And our subconscious mind has seen everything in our life although it filters most of it. 

Another reason is you have the same chemicals in your brain that you have in your gut. 

Lastly, in my opinion, there is a higher universal power that has your best interest in mind which can guide you if necessary.

 Intuition is basically knowledge of something without understanding why you know it.

They say your first “gut” reaction is usually right on, but intuition is like a muscle, if you don’t use it, it will atrophy, and if you use it, it will get stronger and much more powerful. 

So how do you increase your ability to use your own intuition? 

First, I closed my Hypnosis Office because of an intuitive nudge. (Listen to the Podcast for the full story.)

HERE ARE THREE STEPS TO GET YOU STARTING TO TRUST THAT INTUITION OF YOURS.  

  1. If you are “thinking” you aren’t intuiting. Yes, that is a word!  Intuition doesn’t come from the thinking mind. 
  2. Trust yourself. How do you learn to trust? Start making a list or journal every time you have an intuitive nudge. Write it down. 
  3.  Pay attention to feeling “off” about a situation. A situation or event that doesn’t fit right. This is the kind of situation you start waffling over. 

This is important so pay attention:

One of the reasons we don’t “want” to trust our intuition is because it usually shines a spotlight on something you don’t want to know about. 

Tell me. If you have a story to share about a cool intuitive nudge, I would love to hear it. 

Take a deep breath in and exhale.

So, before I go, listen closely and remember this ONE one thing. 

Your future is a thought, your past has passed, but your now is always here. 

Be mindful-one minute at a time.

Hugs, Cheryl
