The intuitive decision is not always the easy decision.

In fact, it’s often the challenging decision.

It’s the deep knowing that rests underneath surface-level impulse, calm and unwavering in its truth.

Free of ego.

Full of quiet love.

It’s the pull of your soul and the guidance of your gut, over impulse.

It’s the gentle whisper – almost indecipherable, at first – amidst the symphony of shouts:

Your monkey mind, the media, your mom, that new “lifestyle” book, your best friend.

Practicing intuitive decision-making builds self-trust, self-love, and pure character more than anything else I’ve ever experienced.

It becomes deeply joyful to make choices that actually serve you, that actually support your body, that actually support your life, and that actually support the planet.

When you begin to follow your intuition, you might not feel 100% on-point right away.

If you don’t feel fully connected right away, there’s nothing wrong with that.

Most of the world around us teaches us to doubt ourselves.

Hearing your intuition and trusting it is a muscle that can be strengthened…

… and sometimes, it needs to be built from the ground up – like when you start a new type of workout and discover muscles you didn’t know existed.

Pro tip: Allow yourself to mess up, and remind yourself that getting it wrong is part of the learning process.

With practice, trusting and following your intuition becomes effortless.

It’s the greatest gift you can give yourself.

Do you feel connected to your intuition?

Is it something you want to develop more?
