Top Tips to Enhance Your Intuitive Skills
Why do some people seem to have better intuition than others? Perhaps you believe that you lack intuition all together. Your mind is constantly giving you feedback. You are either not receiving the message or you are misinterpreting the signs. When you are uncertain about how to proceed, your intuition can provide valuable feedback.
It is a misconception to only rely upon logic when we have access to other powerful decision-making and choice-making tools at our disposal. Time to give your intuition a chance!
Learn to cultivate and use your intuition:
1. Practice accessing and listening to your intuition.
You probably already do this, just not at an appropriate level. When faced with multiple possibilities, give your intuition a chance to chime in. Start with little things. “Should I go to the movie with Sally or stay at home?”
Ask yourself these types of questions as they come up in your life and notice the responses you receive.
2. Notice how your intuition communicates with you.
It might be in the form of a verbal response. In many cases, you will get a feeling in your body that may take the form of a feeling in your stomach, your chest, or your head. It could reveal itself as a sense of calmness, warmth, knowing, or anxiety.
You already experience these types of feelings. When faced with something you fear, your intuition is speaking to you. You already know how that feels. You also know when something feels “right.”
3. Follow your intuition blindly in trivial matters.
Show your intuition that you are willing to listen. When faced with non-pressing matters, such as whether to have a cup of coffee or tea, just do what your intuition tells you. You might go for a joy ride and allow your intuition to choose all the turns. Pay attention to where you end up!!
4. Meditation helps.
Your intuition might be talking to you, but you are not receiving the message or the guidance. With everything else going on in your head, you might not even notice that your intuition is trying to communicate with you. Meditation can quieten the mind enough to notice what your intuition is saying.
5. Spend time in a new environment.
Your thoughts and feelings become habits that are partially dependent upon your surroundings. You tend to think and feel a certain way at home. The same goes for work or in social gatherings.
Give your intuition room to maneuver by spending time someplace out of the ordinary for you. Time at the library, park, or coffee shop might open the channels of communication.
6. Do something that engages your mind at a low level.
Have you ever noticed that many of your best ideas come while taking a shower, driving down the highway, or mowing the grass? It is because your mind is partially occupied. You must pay attention to what you are doing, but your mind is not so engaged that it can’t wander a bit.
7. Keep track of your results.
In general, is your intuition providing helpful and accurate feedback? Notice the situations where the results are positive and those that are negative. You will be able to trust your intuition in more areas of your life over time.
It is important to understand that your intuition is inconsistent. It is inconsistent because of your fears and misconceptions. For instance, you will never get a good vibe about spending time with someone new if you have social anxiety issues.
However, you already know a lot of things. And you already have a lot of life experience. The vast wisdom resulting from those two things is locked inside of you. Your intuition uses all that information to guide you – if you will listen.
