Listen, I live my life pretty intuitively now.
But the way intuition is often talked about in the spiritual world can quietly turn pain into punishment.
“You must ALWAYS listen to your intuition…or else.”
“Oh, your intuition told you something was off and you engaged anyway? You suck.”
“You didn’t listen to your intuition? SHAME! 🔔”
👹
I don’t believe intuition exists to keep us comfortable or safe from every hard experience.
I believe it exists to keep us in relationship with ourselves… even if we choose curiosity, play, experimentation, or learning over the “right” answer.
You’re allowed to hear your intuition and decide how you move forward.
You’re actually allowed to feel something poke your intuition or an “off” feeling…and still choose to engage or gather more data.
That’s not betrayal.
That’s conscious living.
It’s living in nuance and paradox.
Feel your body’s signals and move in a direction with eyes wide open.
With time, more will be revealed and THAT is what will build self trust and ultimately strengthen your inner knowing.
If this resonates, share it with someone who needs this reminder to consciously choose self-trust over always “following your intuition” out of fear or shame.
