Activate your Intuition !


Listen to your heart .. and trust your intuition



Have you had that experience when all of a sudden you just had this huge hunch that something is about to happen, and to your surprise, that intuition was eventually translated to reality? Why is the need to activate intuition ? Why not let your emotional and psychological state as it is? First and foremost, intuition promotes good communication. It makes you more sensitive to the people around you; it often keeps you from hurting those you love because you are intuitive enough to understand them. Intuition also makes you far more creative than ever. Lastly, intuition has a knowledge and a healing power. This healing power is not in the physical sense, but in delving deep into your soul to eradicate some negative energy buried in it. Thus, are you ready to develop your intuition? If yes, here are some ways to activate this gift :


1. Meditation

Meditating means finding peace in yourself. If your mind and heart are cluttered with too many baggage and hurt, you wouldn’t be able to quiet down that part of you that could eventually initiate intuition. There are so many ways to meditate: take a yoga class, or just simply practice some breathing that could bring you straight to Zen.

2. Think positive!

A worry-free, fear-free state could do so much to improve your intuitive ability. By staying positive, you attract good energy that would be able to easily recognize imminent feelings and events.

3. Just let go!

What does this mean? If you are on the brink of making a huge decision, let go of all the inhibitions and head to a quiet place where you could find out where the letting go has brought you. Sometimes you just have to listen to the voice within you, and that voice wouldn’t come out unless you let go.

4. Never expect!
After letting go of the inhibitions and all those things that stop you from thinking and feeling clearly, never expect for an answer right away. Never expect that the “hunch” would fall on your lap immediately. Give it a little time then you’d just get surprised that now you have your answer.

5. Believe in your first impressions!


When you see someone for the first time and think that he is a bit too arrogant for your taste, chances are that impression actually holds true. Most of the time, first impressions are brought by intuition.


6. Stay happy!

All you need to be intuitive is to stay happy! Happiness attracts immense power and such power includes intuition. In tapping your intuition, your motivation must be happiness and contentment. Given that premise, intuition will fall to you easily.

Intuition is helpful, because sometimes it leads you to something that cannot be achieved otherwise. A lot of lives have been saved by intuition alone. Decisions are easier done if armed by this gift. Develop intuition now and reap benefits you have never imagined. It's a knowledge and a power all in you.

Rest your Mind ..

Your thoughts .. It's what tires you ..

The path to self discovery begins with exercises on one's self. As a first time, you must learn to manage and embed all negative thoughts and critical voices that prevent you from advancing in life. This is how you learn to understand yourself better. These exercises will help you to de-stress, to calm your mind so that you can hear your intuition. You need patience, perseverance and confidence in what you do.

Find a quiet place, unplug the phone, television, and anything that might disturb you. You'll watch your thoughts just to be aware of what's happening in your head.Thoughts include: sounds, sensations in your body, sounds from inside or peoples voices. Just give yourself enough time to feel comfortable watching what is going on in your mind. Being gently alert is more important than how long you spend. The more alert you become, the more you will notice. Here are three practical exercises :

1. Watch your thoughts

Relax and gently close your eyes. For about 1 minute, easily watch thoughts flowing through your mind. Just watch them and observe them, and let them go. Open your eyes. Did you notice how quickly or slowly your thoughts were moving through? What else did you notice? Were there lots of thoughts or a few thoughts?

2. Count your thoughts

Next you will count your thoughts. For example, if you notice the sound of a bird singing, count that as thought #1. If you notice a sensation in your body, count that as #2. If you have a thought like, “oh, I am hungry ?” Count that as #3. And so on, count as many thoughts as you notice. Begin by gently closing your eyes. Relax and notice the thoughts moving through your mind. Then easily, effortlessly begin to count each thought that comes into your awareness. Keep alert during this exercise. Continue this for about 2 minutes, then open your eyes How many thoughts did you count?

3. Stay alert as you watch your thoughts

Once again, gently close your eyes and watch the thoughts moving through your mind. Do not count. Just watch. Stay alert. Continue for about 2 minutes, then open your eyes. Did your thoughts begin to slow down? If yes, then you are starting to better understand the flow of your thoughts.


These exercises will reduce your thoughts and calm your mind. The more you practice the more you become aware of what's happening in your mind, which will allow you better control yourself after. Trust yourself and what you feel. This is the key for what's coming next.
