The dictionary defines intuition as the ability to understand or know something immediately without the need for conscious reasoning. It arises as a feeling within your body that only YOU feel.
There are so many books and workshops these days on intuition and how to increase it. Perhaps with all the often conflicting information we are constantly bombarded with everyday, the need for clarity is much larger than it used to be.
We all come equipped with intuition naturally, the only real course required is learning NOT to ignore it. The more we honour and follow our intuitive hunches, the stronger they get. All of us receive these hunches, from a strong feeling to take a different route on our way to a destination or to bring something with us when we leave the house. Sometimes it comes as a distrust or wariness with regards to certain people we meet or certain situations we may be convinced to put ourselves in. We usually only notice these hunches when we ignore them and something goes wrong.
We have a built in guidance system that we only have to access by tuning in to how we FEEL. So simple. But in today’s world we have been taught to place more value on thinking rather than feeling. More value on what other people think than on trusting our own instinct. This cuts us off from our own inner knowing. As adults, only we know what is best for us. Our heads can convince us of anything but our hearts know what is best for us alone.
