Tuning Into Your Intuition
What are your thoughts about human intuition? Do you believe that we should only rely on our powers of reason to interpret the world? Or do you subscribe to our ancient abilities to?detect data through our subtler senses? The best answer probably lies in a healthy combination of our logical faculties and our ancient sensitivities but we’re all capable of experiencing a major increase in our perception by learning to pay attention to our intuition. After all, these faculties have been a fundamental part of human perception for hundreds of thousands of years. We evolved with a set of finely-tuned senses that helped us to survive in challenging and often hostile environments. Whilst the conscious mind could only accommodate limited amounts of information, our intuition cast a wider net to capture important details that mean the difference between life and death. Those senses are still available to us today and enable us to detect subtle streams of data that can prove to be extremely useful in any circumstances.
?So, how do we tune into our intuition?
If you’re accustomed to noticing your feelings and reactions, you might already be aware of how your emotional energy can serve as a radar and provide you with subtle insights into all kinds of situations. This is how we evolved. Perhaps even before the development of spoken language, we communicated through the exchange of gestures and facial expressions, by signalling our intent through posture and movement. These signals continue to inform our efforts to communicate today and the more we are aware of their function, the better our communication becomes.
We’re also capable of responding to our intuition through the physical reactions in our bodies. Never underestimate the power of your physical frame to relay key information about people, places, events and ideas. It’s an ancient barometer that can reveal how you really feel about almost any situation.

Our intuition also speaks through our dreams. If we ignore the subtle signals from our perception, then our subconscious will endeavour to share its wisdom through the medium of symbolism and that’s why our dreams can be so helpful in broadening our understanding of the world.
?n conclusion, our intuition is a valuable extension to our more familiar senses and a priceless lens for seeing more deeply into any situation. Take a moment to listen to your body and see if you can detect its subtle messages. It might be the start of a beautiful new relationship with yourself.
