How to Listen to Your Intuition

The intuition is a calm inner knowing you just feel within your heart, mind, body, and soul. It's pretty different for everyone on where it is actually felt. It could literally be a feeling in your heart, a voice in your mind, a feeling in your stomach, or chills down your spine, but every atom in your body will know the difference between intuitive instincts aside from the ego or fear that blocks the intuition. Majority of the time we allow our self-doubt, fear, or other people make us second-guess ourselves. So, it makes it almost impossible to actually hear or feel our intuition and how can we hear or trust how we feel deep down if we second-guess ourselves? Only you will know. There can be good feelings and bad feelings. We'll get into how you can begin to understand and hear when your intuition is speaking to you, but before we do, don't forget to heart this post, re-blog, and follow!! It is greatly appreciated <3

So, first things first, get to know yourself better!! How you can do this is by spending some time alone and developing a form of meditation. It can be any activity that helps you calm your mind and put your energy in a place where you're grounded and centered within yourself. Not everyone does this and still they can hear and listen to their intuition. That's because they trust their instincts and some people have better judgement and discernment than others, which is completely okay!!

When you spend time alone, you're able to hear your thoughts better and feel emotions more clearly, than if you were constantly surrounded by people or environments where you aren't able to have peace and quiet. Now, it doesn't always have to be you spending time alone in order to listen to your intuition. With practice, you will just instinctively start to do it all the time. When you do have the time to yourself try to feel your emotions more and observe your thoughts. When you are able to discern between your thoughts and feelings, you start to become more self-aware. What I mean by this is, when you think of something you literally feel the thought in your mind. But when you feel an emotion, you feel it in your heart. That's difference between intellect and emotion or sympathy and empathy. It may sound complicated, but you will understand when you actually learn to do it. It takes practice and its different for everyone like I said. Maybe the way you learn how to do it, will be different than the way someone else is telling you or how someone else learned. But intellect is something you know based off common sense, wisdom, and intelligence. It's what you know. Meanwhile, emotion is the feeling we get whether it be scared, happy, excited, shocked, calm, etc.

My point is discernment is something you have to have in order to know when your intuition is speaking to you. Because without it, you will not understand what your intuition feels like. Let's say someone is giving you a weird feeling because of how they're behaving or something just doesn't seem right and apart of you feels confused like you're second guessing yourself, overthinking, anxious, fearful, all that stuff. 95% of the time you're actually right and you don't always need evidence or proof in order to have an intuitive feeling about something and remember all that glitters isn't gold and looks can be deceiving. Sometimes you will get physical proof or see exactly what you intuitively felt, especially if you ignored your intuition. Now if you think you just can't trust someone or something feels off because you're scared of trusting, intimacy, or taking risks, whatever it may be, that's probably just your own fear. If someone is literally making you feel like you can't trust them, then you shouldn't. But if they've actually done nothing wrong and you have trauma related to the negative feelings you're getting, make sure you are discerning between whether it's a projection of your own experiences or your actual intuition warning you of something because it could be either or. Fear is loud and intuition is quiet. Fear is more like a screaming, nagging, annoying feeling. Intuition can be uncomfortable when it's a warning because the truth is hard to accept mentally sometimes, but it can come as a calm, still, and more of a quiet voice, feeling, or knowing. When I say voice, I mean your inner conscious that voice in your head that kind of isn't your own but is at the same time. It keeps you alert and aware of everything like it pushes you to stay on guard and mindful instead of emotional and trusting and you may constantly question or think about everything. Or when it's a feeling, it's like you just can't explain it, or the reality shows something different than how you feel, but you just can't shake the feeling, that's intuition. Or it could be that sinking feeling in the middle or pit of your stomach. When it's a knowing, it's like you don't know how you know, but you just know and sometimes your feelings don't add up to what you know, but your mind is seeing something you can't really feel. Sometimes feelings are deceiving so we might feel one way and our subconscious knows something we don't. Sometimes we also get dreams of what we've been suspecting or chills and those are also spiritual/intuitive senses.

When it comes to making decisions, our intuition will pretty much do the same thing and feel the same way. When we get good intuitive nudges it's more of a good feeling though, rather than an uncomfortable one. It'll still come as a voice, knowing, feeling, dreams or chills, like I said. As an example, let's say you want to make the choice to move away and there's a sense of peace and excitement, maybe even warmth in your heart. That can be a yes from your intuition. Or you feel like it's safe to open up and love someone, even if your mind is facing doubts from past experiences, trust how you feel deep down. If you feel like it is safe to love, then it more than likely is. Only if you have good judgement though, because impulses aren't always the best to act on. We all have our doubts at times, but as long as you don't allow it to sabotage your happiness that's all that matters. It's not that hard to listen to your intuition, it's just a skill you learn to develop. It takes time, experience, failure, and patience. It takes time to learn yourself, master your thoughts, and process emotions. Intuition comes easily for some and harder for others. Everyone is different.

If you believe in chakras, meditation with silence or frequencies can help you strengthen your intuition and gain more self-awareness because you learn to be present with yourself and block out outside noise. Also, crystals can help with tapping into your intuition because they hold energy and vibrate at certain frequencies that your body can align with. Your body contains energy just as crystals do and even you vibrate at a specific frequency spiritually speaking. Those are some things I've tried, and it has helped me greatly. I also been through enough situations where I felt a certain way and trusted it or didn't trust it and I learned from my experiences because of it. It's also very important to remember that we should never let another person make us doubt ourselves, but we are not always right. Sometimes we are wrong and other times we aren't. Your intuition isn't going to catch every single thing, but it can help you in so many ways.

I really hope this was able to help some of you and I wish you the best of love and abundance!! Take care and if you ever have any questions feel free to dm me!!
