Making Aligned Decisions with Your Intuition

Going Beyond the Mind and Into the Intuition

Connecting to your intuition can make decisions much easier! If you’ve felt mental fatigue by the choices you have to make, play with using your intuition. Start with everyday choices like which nail polish color to wear or how to spend a few free hours in your day. Then experiment with allowing your inner wisdom to guide you through larger choices such as a career change or move.

I am taking a break from producing new podcast episodes this summer. Instead, I’m following an intuitive nudge to rest and recharge this season. I am delighted by the inspiration coming my way and look forward to sharing new episodes and interviews again in the fall. Until then, we are revisiting some favorites from the archives. I hope you find ideas to explore as you celebrate the good in life and cultivate more of what you want!


“How Do I Know I’m Hearing My Intuition?”

It is really common to wonder if you’re hearing your intuition or something else like your mind, fear, or other people’s opinions. Even when you’re confident that you’re accessing your intuition, you might wonder if you can trust it! This is all totally normal. You’ll get better and more confident with more practice and time.

Explore these questions and ideas when you wonder, “Is this my intuition?”

  1. Notice, how does it feel?

  2. Explore where it’s coming from.

  3. Ask, “is this intuition?”

  4. Wait and listen, listen, listen.

  5. Ask for a sign or confirmation.

How to Find Alignment with Intuitive Decisions

If your mind is having a hard time, find alignment with intuition. Ultimately, you get to choose whether you follow your intuition or not. And little discomfort in the mind is okay…

Take yourself beyond the situation for a moment. Acknowledge your mind’s preferences and how you would typically react. Now pause to close your eyes and take a few slow, complete breaths. Allow your awareness to drift down into the place where you hear your inner wisdom. As your intuition, “What do I need? What should I do?” 

Just listen. You don’t have to do anything just yet..

our answer might be soft or subtle. Stay there and see if you can get a bit more. Ask your awareness follow-up questions if anything is unclear or doesn’t make sense.

Once you feel complete, then you get to decide if you want to take a leap and trust your intuition. Play, experiment, and try to keep a loose grip on outcomes. Breathing helps with this!
