HOW DO YOU GET IN TOUCH WITH YOUR INTUITION?

Almost everyone has experienced their own intuition.

Millions of people can walk into a house for sale, and
instantly know its the right place for them to live. (Or know
its not.) or some couples, it takes !ust one look to
recogni"e their lifetime partner. Many people also experience
their pets# a$ilities %to know&. 'ogs have $een known to
howl inconsola$ly at the moment of their masters death,
even if they#re separated $y thousands of miles. (n our own
lives, we get more hooked into our own story $y glimpses
our intuition gives us of how things can turn out. (ntuitive hits
make life more interesting) Often, the inner voice is a *uiet
one. +eople are used to important things $eing said in a loud
voice. ,he inner voice can also $e cryptic and fleeting. (t can
$e visceral, like the hair standing up on your head, or your
guts contracting ('o not proceed)). Or, it can $e the voice of
your mother or a $est friend.
'r. Orloff, M', a psychiatrist, Assistant -linical +rofessor of
psychiatry at .niversity of -alifornia at /os Angeles... and
author of several $ooks, including the New York Times $est
seller Emotional Freedom (www.'r0udithOrloff.com),
descri$es thus1 &(ntuition is a talent some people are $orn
with2like math or music. 3ome have more of a propensity
for it, $ut everyone can learn to develop powerful intuitive
skills to serve them in their lives.& 3he descri$ed intuition as
what we feel rather than think. (t#s a continuum that runs all
the way from trusting your gut to seeing the future. 'r. Orloff
suggests some simple signals that your intuition is at work1
Signs that your intuition is saying " yes "...
4our shoulders are relaxed.
4ou find yourself leaning toward the person you are
talking to.
4ou $reathe normally.
4ou have goose $umps. ((nterestingly, goose $umps can
indicate that your intuition knows you have hit the mark
perfectly.)
4ou feel your gut tighten and you notice a somewhat
sinking feeling.
Signs that your intuition is saying " no "...
4ou feel a lump or constriction in your throat.
4ou find that you are holding your $reath2a sign that
you#re afraid.
4our skin crawls or you feel chills.
4our shoulders tighten or you feel knots in them.
,he hair on the $ack of your neck stands up.
4ou feel drained, with a sense of malaise.
5xisting aches and pains feel aggravated.
,he intuition#s most important role is to indicate what, where,
and whom is part of our potential growth and fulfillment.

O8 4O.8 (:,.(,(O:;1 (t is always $oth) (t is the
imagination, with its a$ility to create pictures, that allows
your intuitions to $e delivered. ,he imagination provides
tools that the intuition uses to send messages. (t#s your
imagination and your intuition working together. 4our
imagination is activated $y following along with the directions
of the guided meditation. (t leads you into the right fre*uency
and resonance to receive awareness. (t functions to produce
images and impressions the intuition is communicating.
,o $egin, think of something important that you want to
know. 7hat do you want your intuition to illuminate; +ut it
into a *uestion form in your mind, then, let it go.
:ow, take a couple of $ig deep $reaths to relax.
<reathe in through your nose and out your mouth. /et your
$ody sink into the chair. 9et comforta$le.
(magine yourself inside your home, $y the door you use
when you go outside. (n your imagination, open the door and
walk outside. Make it a nice day. /ook around and locate a
telephone=perhaps its an old>fashioned telephone $ooth
right outside your door or in the street. May$e its a cell>
phone on a $ench.
7hen you see the telephone, go up to it. 4oure going to use
the phone to call up your intuition, so pick a phone num$er.
+erhaps its your own num$er, or a family mem$er#s, or a
phone num$er from childhood.
Make yourself comforta$le, then, remem$er the *uestion you
want to ask your intuition.
+ick up the phone, dial the num$er you !ust chose, and let it
ring. (f anyone answers, assume it#s your intuition. 3ay &6i&
and ask your *uestion. ,hen !ust listen for the answer.
7hen the call is over, hang up, and in your imagination, walk
$ack into the house and then to where you are presently
sitting. 4ou might want to write down the message, words, or
feelings that came to you.
(nstead of actual words or thoughts, you can also get a
strong and informative feeling as an answer to your
*uestion, or a telling picture will appear in your minds eye.
4ou can call up your intuitive self any time, using this
method.
Acknowledge yourself for tuning into your inner guidance
system.
3ay a prayer of gratitude, dance a dance or give yourself a
$ig smile.
4ouve done it) 4our intuition1 youve got it and you know how
to use it.
