Body Wisdom – 5 Ways to Increase Intuition
Five Ways to Increase Intuition:
Develop a meditation practice
In order to cut through the mind’s busy chatter, Sutherland suggests a simple meditation practice. Create a daily affirmation by starting with “I am” and adding whatever word arises, such as peace, kindness, or radiance.
Tune into nature
Sutherland recommends seeking out a quiet place in nature and focus on one aspect to “listen” to, such as a tree or a rock. Ask it for a message, and pay attention to what emerges.
Trust you body language
Sutherland asks us to become more aware of whether we lean toward something, or pull away, even with a gesture as subtle as putting our head closer versus drawing it back. We can use this instinctual aversion or attraction to help us guide our choices, including what foods to eat or supplements to take.
Clean up your diet
The fewer toxins you have circulating in your body, the emptier a channel you can be for your intuition.
Sutherland says detoxification is a necessary prerequisite to becoming more in touch with your inner voice.
Act on what you know
All too often, Sutherland says, people get these great insights, but because they may seem illogical or strange, don’t act on them. Once you receive a message, your responsibility is to act upon what you’ve been given. Ignoring those twinges of clarity shuts down your ability to align with the deeper forces at work.
