Episode 12: Intuitive Living: How to Trust and Develop Your Inner Knowing
Summary: In this episode, Kristal and Kate discuss intuition and practices to develop it.
Show Notes
Intro & Invocation (0:00-6:05) Nadi Shodhana or Alternate Nostril Breathing. A yogic practice used to calm the mind, balance energy, and reduce stress.

What is intuition? It’s not the taught kind of knowledge; it’s a complementary way of knowing. We exhibit intuitive reasoning as young as one year old and develop it through pattern matching. You feel your intuition in your body and it can be strengthened. (6:06-17:19)

Because we are all one and connected, we have access to knowledge that’s encoded and passed down from generation to generation. (17:20-20:44)

Intuition is complementary to analytical thinking. Intuition relies on both, building on learned behavior and gathered data. A mindfulness practice strengthens intuition and shadow work provides the opportunity to run mini intuitive experiments to confirm new patterns. (20:45-25:29)

The mind-gut connection. We receive intuition first in our heart, then our brain, and finally our gut. Essentially, we have three brains and they work seamlessly together. Your digestive system is a nervous system in and of itself. (25:30-34:51)

Meditation is one of the best ways to build your intuition. Word play, time recall, and flashcards are good exercises, too. Kate shares her experience as a child in Mormonism with the promptings of the Holy Ghost. Ask your guides/the Universe for signs and synchronicities and as you notice more often, you confirm your data. Psychometry is reading what is attached to an object. You can also try automatic writing in response to a question and dream recall. (34:52-53:18)

Final thoughts and call-to-action: How are you building your intuition?
