The Case Study of My Intuition

Today, my intuition says it's time to speak the truth about my special "intuitive" gift. Intuition is this ability to understand something immediately, without the need of conscious reasoning.... the ability to see any event or any object from a viewpoint of the cosmic whole... the ability to get a sense, vision or feeling about someone or something.

A year ago, I met this intuition expert in one of the networking events in Salt Lake City and when she told me she was writing a book on intuition, came this strong rush of feeling inside me and I was bursting out like a drag queen, and I said "I've been hiding in my intuition closet. I know it's there and it wanted to come out so strongly and so undeniably that they startle me.... It is like every cell of my body is screaming at me to do something, to take a certain course, even though logically it may make no sense..." That confession to this woman I just met had led me to open my mind and heart to study it and learn how to tap in its power, listen to it, trust it and teach it to guide me. It was not an overnight makeover but many months of practicing my awareness of this amazing gift. Once I came out of my closet and awakened my inner guide by unlocking the wisdom of my subconscious mind, I already know what to do - no questions asked.

I've written a little bit about it in my last year's blogs but not with huge compliment. For example, I wrote something like.... "I feel that there is something big and significant that will happen to me this year. I don't know what or why or how, but I feel that I need to prepare for it." And so I followed this instinct and took the actions without questions... and so I was right!

The interesting thing about intuition is that it doesn't necessarily coordinate with our current reality or current life. Sometimes, our intuition serves as a protector, preventor or guide. Sometimes, you may not know why you took the action you took until more time passes... One thing I know for sure is when I don't follow those intuitive hints, I usually pay a price down the line.

Call it gut-feelings, instinct, inner guide, little voice inside my head, internal GPS, higher self, wizard within..... I have learned to trust this gift to always lead me in the direction of my dreams. I have learned to train that part of me so I have an overview of my life that has my best interest at heart. It can provide me an oasis of peace in the midst of chaos, bring me to harmony, help me release negativity, and give me confidence to take action and prepare for change in my life. It also can be a valuable guide as I take steps to create my dreams and know how to turn them to reality.

Here's a video that I found that talks a little bit about How to Tap into Your Intuition (and not to over think all the time...).
