Today, we are discussing intuition or gut instinct. Intuition is a type of unconscious reasoning. For example, when I have a hunch that it's better to avoid the highway today when I run my errands, that's intuition. It oftentimes disappears after a discovery or disclosure because trauma can block intuition for a time. Typically, women are tuned into their intuition and when it goes offline we can feel that everything is unsafe, even when it is not. This is a scary place to be in.
