What is Intuition?

Intuition refers to the ability to understand or know something immediately without the need for conscious reasoning. It is often described as a gut feeling, instinct, or a deep-seated sense of understanding that arises without explicit evidence or conscious thought.

Insights from a Deep Conversation on Relationships and Life

Yesterday, I had a really deep conversation with an old friend about relationships and life. We chatted for more than three hours in my therapy room, having the kind of conversation that guys sometimes find hard to get. You know, the typical “girl’s talk” that seems like just talking but means a lot.

When it was time to leave before the traffic got crazy, I thought about our chat while driving home. I remembered a moment when my friend asked me a question as a hypnotherapist. I didn’t have an immediate answer, so I took a moment to think.

What I noticed was that I was looking down while thinking. In the realm of NLP ( Neuro-Linguistic Programming ), those versed in eye accessing cues would recognize that looking downward usually means you’re searching for feelings or having an internal conversation. It was interesting because I expected to look up instead.

Then I thought about what my mindfulness teacher told me. He said mindfulness helps us become more intuitive. I wasn’t sure if it was because of mindfulness or just something natural to me. Either way, it’s cool how practicing mindfulness has helped me discover the many wonders in life.

I just love learning about interesting things like this! ❤️🧡💚
