How does intuition work? A deeper look beyond the surface

Many people believe that intuition is just a quick feeling or "gut instinct" based on our past experiences. They think it’s the unconscious mind rapidly putting together everything we’ve been through to help us make decisions. But intuition is much more than that. While it might feel like it comes from our mind or past, true intuition comes from something much deeper, our spiritual heart. This inner compass connects us with deep inner knowledge and connection to the universe, far beyond the limits of logic or past experiences. From an energy perspective, is an invisible energy center located in the middle of our chest and it’s where our intuition comes from, giving us a sense of what’s right for us, even when our mind doesn’t fully understand why.

A common misconception is that people think their heart misleads them when things don’t go as planned. But this happens when they don’t listen to their heart, or listen only when it’s convenient or seems logical. Heart never lies. It always points us toward the best decision for our growth, but we need to consistently listen to it. Sometimes, the heart's guidance might align with logic and feel comfortable, but other times it may challenge us. It’s in those challenging moments that many people choose the easier, more logical option, thinking the heart was wrong.

The heart never misleads, it always knows the way.

The heart’s path doesn’t mean making wild, illogical decisions. Often, our heart and mind work together in harmony. But when they don’t, it’s because the heart knows something deeper that the mind can’t see right away. When you consistently follow your heart’s guidance, even when it’s uncomfortable or seems unclear, you’re ensuring that you’re moving in the right direction, one that serves your highest purpose.

It’s essential to learn how energy works, especially in this new "internet era" where we are surrounded by vast amounts of information, many people who believe they know "how you should live”, AI, and endless possibilities.

Energy carries and stores information, and when we begin to understand and read it, life can take an unexpectedly positive turn.

Many people blame others, circumstances, or even the universe for their problems, but these are only the consequences of their own choices, thoughts, and actions, whether in this life or past ones. By understanding energy from a deeper perspective, we can understand and shift our situations, learn how to act or respond, and even understand how to heal ourselves.

To hear inner guidance clearly, our mind and logic need to be set in their proper place. The mind is an important part of us and never should be “turned off”, but it should work in harmony with the deeper parts of ourselves rather than overpowering them. When our mind is quiet and balanced, we can fully hear the heart’s guidance. The heart speaks through feelings, not words, and each of us has our own unique heart's voice. In your mind, ask your mind and logic to take their rightful place, and invite your heart to show its voice. It may manifest as a particular feeling, such as goosebumps, a calmness in your chest, a sense of safety, or even a specific smell. Trust it, and allow it to come.

Intuition is a powerful tool that helps us connect to our true self. This is also a path to discovering and expressing our uniqueness, radiating confidence, and making decisions with certainty and inner strength.
