A female psychologist in her late twenties wakes up in the early hours of the morning, she is inexplicably concerned about her younger sister. She feels so upset by the onslaught of emotion, that she cannot go back to sleep - later that morning she receives a phone call with tragic news, her younger sister has been found unconscious and near to death, lying on the side of a road, having barely survived a car accident.
How did she know that something was wrong?
A pragmatic interior decorator endeavoring to build her own business loses a R10 000 cash cheque. She hunts for it all day to no avail, until eventually, despite her scepticism, she feels pushed by desperation to use intuition to solve her crisis. She closes her eyes and calls out to the empty room, “Please help me!” - and as if to answer her cry, she receives the sudden impression that the cheque is in her son’s car. She doubts whether this is true, but follows up anyway, she calls her son who finds the cheque under his driver seat. How did she know?
A mother’s two-year-old daughter is critically ill and doctors seem unable to find a reason, the mother senses what is wrong. X-rays confirm her intuitive diagnosis - this was me. How did I know? I’ll tell you how.
These three examples are true life experiences. Most people will tell you that intuitive moments have occurred in their lives - moments of insight, flashes of inexplicable clarity defying conventional understanding. Yes intuition is real and yes it is fallible, and yet despite its nebulous nature - it has been known to change lives. So instead of waiting for your intuitive insights to arrive randomly and with scarcity - why not develop this skill yourself?
Can you imagine what having a more fully developed and reliable intuition would do for you?
You can learn to develop your innate, natural intuition and these steps will take you on the path to a more intuitive you.
Step 1 - Pay attention to your inner world
Most of us live in our heads and pay little or no attention to the feelings that we so aptly call “gut feelings”. Our tummy knows far more than we give it credit for - so start listening to it. This is the gateway to our “inner world” or intuition. Intuition, as opposed to logic, reasoning and rationale, is a gentler source of information that often defies logic, challenges reason and is strongly connected to feelings in the body rather than in the mind or head. Paying attention to our inner world requires that we press the pause button on the endless mental processing that consumes most of us. It allows us to focus to emotions, feelings and our body and with this we have taken the first crucial step to accessing our intuitive self.
Step 2 - Sort out the inner committee
When trying to solve a problem or simply when thinking about anything - it may be interesting (if not scary) to notice just how many different perspectives or internal voices we have going on inside - and no, this is not “Schizophrenia 101″. Sorting out the difference between your internal voices of fear from other calmer, clearer source of internal thought is vital. The tyrants on the internal committee prevent us from hearing the softer, wise internal guru who actually has something valuable to say.
Step 3 - Get rid of any inter’fear’ance
What most people do not realise, is that fear literally interferes with true intuition. Many profound ‘aha’ moments can happen in the shower, or while taking a relaxing walk - why? Because when our body is finally relaxed and calm, our intuition can kick in. While fear, stress, grief, anger and their friends on the internal committee are hogging our internal bandwidth with their load and pushy behavior, they literally drown out the gentle, softer inner guru. So train your body to relax.
Step 4 - Peel the onion (with or without the tears)
But the truth is that most of us don’t want to be quiet, relax or keep still for any significant length of time, because we know that all sorts of nasty emotions, old baggage and inner turmoil lies in wait to pounce the moment we shut our eyes, (for anything other than sleep). Behind the doors of any likely emotional purging, inner exploration and inner dragon slaying, is your inner well of intuition - just waiting to be used. So although it is not necessary to fully peel the onion to access your intuition, it will give you high-speed access to your guru.
Step 5 - Put the power back where it belongs
We are accountable for our choices, and even not choosing is a choice.
