Follow your intuition. It will not lead you astray. Follow your intuition. It will show you The Way… ~ Luminita D. Saviuc

Albert Einstein once said, “The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.”

We live in a patriarchal/masculine society where we have decided to use logic over intuition, but clearly, this hasn’t gotten us very far.

Follow Your Intuition

The time of the feminine is here.

And it is time to start listening and trusting our own intuition. I’m not saying to throw logic and reasoning out the door, but if you want to live a life of happiness and ease (better, more amazing life!) then you need to learn how to follow your intuition.

How to Listen to Your Inner Voice and Follow Your Intuition

I want to tell you my story and to hopefully inspire you to follow your intuition and listen to your inner voice as well.

I studied accounting in college. I was never truly interested in being an accountant, but was told by people “you’ll make a lot of money”, “accounting is a secure and well-paid job”, “you’ll be able to support yourself,” etc.

In the back of my mind, I knew accounting was not for me.  One thing I loved was traveling. So along came this amazing opportunity to do my masters over in the United Kingdom and play/coach lacrosse. How on earth was I going to convince my parents this is was ok? By telling them I’d go get a master in finance, duh!

After an amazing year of living abroad and traveling around Europe, I was back in the same boat – unsure and confused about what to do with my life.  Looking back, I realize I wasn’t truly happy. I felt like something was always missing. I used partying and alcohol to fill the gap, not knowing there were other options.

Along came a job opportunity, unrelated to accounting/finance, but for a nutrition school. To me, this sounded amazing.  The salary was not great, but something was telling me not to pass down this opportunity. I took the job. That was the first time I really listened to my voice inside.

The job ended up getting me a scholarship to become a Health Coach. I fell in love with the holistic lifestyle. I had a job that allowed me to be myself, and do the things I loved.

My intuition then led me to complete a yoga teacher training, something I had thought and dreamed about for a while. I would never have taken the plunge into this teacher training without finally listening to what my inner voice was guiding me to do.

“Intuition is the highest form of intelligence, transcending all individual abilities and skills. “~ Sylvia Clare

5 Powerful Ways to Listen to Your Inner Voice and Follow Your Intuition

So… How do you do it?

1. Listen!

Start listening to yourself, and to the signs the universe is displaying all around you.

2. Live in the present moment

The past is in the past, and the future hasn’t come yet. Just focus on now, how are you feeling right now. Once you are able to live more in the present moment without worrying about the future and the past, you will be able to listen more closely!

3. Be mindful

Stop rushing through life. Everything you do should be done mindfully. This goes along with being present; you cannot do something mindfully if you are not present.

4. Meditate

This is a scary one for some people! Just sit for a few minutes each day with yourself, with no distractions. Start to see what comes up in your mind, try to quiet your mind, and then see what comes up again. Meditation is a great way to really get to know your true self.

5. Be confident

Start to embrace who you truly are, your true inner self, and be confident in that person! That person is beautiful, smart, and powerful. Believe it!

I encourage you to start tapping into your inner voice, listening to what is inside. You will really start to figure out what your true passions are. When you know what they are, then use your logic and reasoning to figure out how to get there, and how to let you create the life of your dreams.
