Your Inner Guidance
People ask me all the time, "how do I know when it's my intuition or if I'm just making up a bunch of stuff."
Discerning your inner guidance takes three things, practiced consistently: trust, action, and awareness.
Trust: Really learn to trust yourself, even when other people are telling you something different than what your inner senses are saying.
Action: When you get a hunch to call someone, go somewhere, make a different decision, let something go, start something new, act on it. Sometimes it won't make sense or it might be a bit uncomfortable, that is okay. You are learning to follow to you inner voice.
Awareness: Authentic intuition is always in the present moment. Resting in the present moment will automatically raise your awareness to the certainty of your inner guidance. Stay present and you will raise your awareness to the accuracy of the information you are receiving.
Most of all, have fun with it. Play with it. The more you practice your intuitive abilities, the more accurate they get.
