Easy Guide to Deeper Intuition

When we need to make decisions in life, many of us look to the outside world to provide us with answers.

This may be because we have forgotten how to tap into our own deeper wisdom. Our intuition is the ability to know and understand something instinctively, without needing to rely on logic or conscious reasoning. Within your subconscious mind and heart wisdom, your intuition knows the right path for you and is always gently trying to keep you on track.

It is a feeling that begs you to listen while subtly directing you on your journey. You might not think that you are an intuitive person but everyone has intuition. If you are one of those people who have forgotten how to listen to your intuition or don’t know how to trust your feelings; then read on, because everyone can develop their intuitive powers and learn how to trust the messages they speak to us.

Ten minutes of meditation a day can clear your mind and get you in touch with your inner feelings and desires. Sitting quietly with yourself, away from technology, can deepen your understanding and the relationship you have with yourself. Your intuition will subtly communicate to you through feelings as well as thoughts. The following steps can help you discover your intuition and listen to it, so that you can live a more authentic and rewarding life.

Steps to Get You Started:

• Spend time in nature. It can help you to be quiet and in the moment, creating a space for you to connect with your deep feelings.
• Learn to recognise and listen to how your intuition communicates with you through feelings, physical sensations and thoughts.
• Meditation can help bring you into a quiet space where it is easier to tune into your intuition and hear what it is trying to tell you.
• Make listening to your intuition a daily practice. Consciously tell yourself that you are open and ready for guidance.
• Knowing the questions you want to ask, making them clear in your mind and focusing on them will help you receive clear direction and answers in return.
• Listen to your feelings and not just your thoughts. Often we want to rationalise our choices and we don’t listen to what our feelings are telling us.
• Let go of resistance. Learn to trust, because when we cannot justify our feelings, we may ignore what our intuition is trying to show us.

Everyone has intuition and can learn to use it as an effective tool for navigating our way through life. Your intuition is a direct link to your true life path, and for that reason, you can trust that it is always trying to guide you in the right direction. By practising these steps, you too, can start to learn to recognise and understand the times when your deeper self is trying to communicate with you. Do you get physical sensations like a feeling in your gut, a hunch, or skin tingles? Or does your intuition come to you in thoughts that speak to you and point you towards certain ideas?

When you have a hunch about something, remember, your feelings are valid and trying to help you.

Of course, looking within ourselves for answers takes trust, and taking action needs courage, especially when what your heart is telling you doesn’t make logical sense. But we are all blessed with inner-knowing, and when we are quiet enough and listen, we can discover all the answers we need.
