Intuition is one of the most important – and often overlooked – tools we have in our healing journey. Your subconscious knows more than you realize. And it can often show us the best path forward. So let’s talk about the importance of your intuition and how to stay in touch with it.
What Is Intuition and What Does It Do?
Intuition is the quiet voice inside. It’s an instrument that uses our higher self to communicate with us, to help us move in the right direction in the shortest way possible. Its main goal is to help us stay connected with ourselves.
Put another way, intuition is an innate sense of knowing that operates beyond conscious reasoning, drawing upon the wealth of information stored in the subconscious mind.
It provides immediate insights and understanding about situations, people, or decisions, often facilitating rapid decision-making and problem-solving. It serves as a survival instinct, alerting you to potential dangers or opportunities.
On top of that, intuition can act as a personal compass, helping you make choices that align with your values and goals.
Why Intuition Is So Important
Intuition is a guide that is important for several reasons, including:
- Survival Instinct: Intuition can alert you to potential dangers or opportunities, playing a crucial role in ensuring your safety and well-being.
- Rapid Decision Making: In situations where time is limited or information is incomplete, intuition can provide quick insights and guide decision-making, helping you act swiftly and effectively.
- Emotional Intelligence: Intuition is closely linked to emotional intelligence, allowing you to understand and navigate your emotions as well as the emotions of others, leading to better interpersonal relationships and communication.
- Personal Guidance: Intuition often serves as a compass for personal growth and decision-making, helping you make better choices.
- Creativity: Intuition fuels creativity by tapping into subconscious insights and inspirations, helping artists, writers, and innovators to generate novel ideas and push boundaries.
- Trust and Confidence: Learning to trust your intuition can boost self-confidence and self-trust, empowering you to rely on your inner wisdom and make bold decisions with conviction.
How To Listen To Your Intuition
So how do you know what’s your intuition and what’s just fear, anxiety, or an intrusive thought?
You can hear your intuition when there is a state of internal silence. That’s when you start to receive correct information. Intuition usually speaks in a quiet voice and gives a feeling of calm, while fear screams and causes more anxiety.
And the problem is, if we act from a state of fear and anxiety, then we usually make the wrong decision. This subsequently complicates and lengthens our path to a decision. And as a result, we have even more fear, anxiety, and eventually depression.
Furthermore, this leads to a lack of trust in yourself, which puts you in a state of complete immobilization. You freeze up, unable to make decisions or hear your intuition anymore.
Fortunately, this is not the end of the story. To get back to your intuition, you have to reconnect with yourself. How do you do that?
Here are some practices to incorporate into your routine that can help you stay in touch with your intuition:
- Mindfulness practices, like meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises
- Spend time alone for self-reflection and introspection
- Self-care, like getting enough sleep, healthy eating, exercising, and hobbies
- Set boundaries with yourself and others
- Get out in nature to feel grounded
- Intentionally be grateful for the good things you have
- Take plant-based supplements that encourage self-connection
