Reflections: Intuition, How do we know?
Trusting intuition how do you do it? I donβt claim to have the solid answer on this and ultimately, I can only write from my experiences and my perceptions on this. It is a constant journey of learning the subtle nuisances between head and heart ego and soul learning when something feels at ease and organic and just flows verses looping thoughts with added frustration the feeling of feeling stuck on a roundabout. What I have to come to learn is that when I am operating from my soul and my heart it feels calm it feels still and peaceful it doesnβt always come without anxiety and fear because ultimately I am exposing my authenticity and so this comes with vulnerability so of course there is some fear and anxiety but the ease and relief overrides it because what sits at the core of intuition is a tangible feeling of knowing that this is what is right for me good for me and true for me for this moment so I look for the feeling of my shoulders dropping, taking a deep breath an opening of my chest I am able to settle in to this space and feel curious that is how I know I am in my intuition and I am operating and leading from my heart and soul self. When I am in my head and it is ego driven I often loop my thoughts, doubt my thoughts, I feel somewhat sticky and chaotic sometimes a sense of urgency a need a feeling of need which can begin to feed narratives that often feel exhausting for example βI can relax when I have done thisβ like a type of bargaining.
