Intuition is often described as that feeling that there is something more going on than meets the eye. Similar to Spiderman's "Spidey Sense" intuition happens when we know there is more going on than what is on the surface and the hair on the back of our head begins to rise. It can alert us when we are moving in the wrong direction and create recognition that something is not quite right in the moment.
Intuition can assist us in piecing together the experiences of our lives, leading to a deeper level of understanding and personal wisdom.
Intuition is also how we are able to bring insight into our daily living and affirm that we are doing the right thing.
So how do we tap into that intuitive voice? One of the most proactive ways is to create small pockets of quiet that allow us to reach inside and invite our personal wisdom to rise to the surface.
When facing a larger than life problem, take a few moments and sit with your feelings and your breath in a quiet space and listen to what arises. Usually intuition is the very quiet simple voice in the middle of all the fears and what-ifs. The shorter and more simple the message received, the more likely it is that you're in touch with your intuition.
By maintaining an open-minded, non-judgmental attitude, intuition can open the door to valid solutions to difficult problems and decision-making.

Intuition: Finding the Wisdom Within
As we strive to make our lives full and productive, we can easily become overly busy doing the things we need to do to survive the daily grind like cleaning up, getting the kids to school, getting to work, staying in contact with friends and family. This constant busyness can create a buzzing, overwhelmed exterior that takes us out of contact with our deeper, quieter, often wiser, interior voice known as intuition.
