I used to want so bad to develop my intuition.
Everything I had read made it feel like a super power to me.
It will warn you of danger you couldn’t have known about, it will give you messages, it will help you know when your kids are sick, connect you with people when they need it the most.
So I set out trying to develop it.
Growing up around animals had given me some fundamental tools that came in handy. I was already tuned into how a situation felt and nonverbal cues from catching, riding and working with them.
When I learned what a “yes” feels like to me, and what feels like a “no”… I was able to ask myself questions and use my intuition for guidance and decision making.
There were times I could tune in about something and be bang on… other times..not so much.
My intuition is more like a hypothesis and fun to play with. I’ve noticed it’s changed recently.
Since I began listening to my heart over my head and stop the battling between the two (this is huge), and when I learned (again) back in November not to make everything about me, it has really helped my incessant chatter in my head to quiet down… which has taken loads of tension out of my body, and exponentially increased my happiness.
Serendipitously, I’ve been able to get random pop up intuitive messages that I’ve never heard before.
I haven’t received any profound or life saving messages that I know of, (thank goodness I haven’t needed them), but creative ideas, solutions to problems, and detecting another persons struggle are popping up frequently… without a tonne of effort from me.
I enjoy that.
