Intuition & self-awareness
🔵 Wellness practice
🟢 Evidence-basedIntuition can involve rapid impressions, experience and pattern recognition. Spiritual traditions may interpret intuition differently. We do not claim paranormal abilities.
Observation, assumption or intuition?
- Observation: what you can see or hear (“She looked at the floor.”).
- Assumption: a story you add (“She is upset with me.”).
- First impression / intuition: a quick feeling that may reflect experience, and can be wrong.

Practice self-awareness
- Pause and ask: “What is my first impression, and what is it based on?”
- Notice body signals (tension, ease) as information, not proof.
- Check intuition with facts and other people before big decisions.
- Journal your hunches and outcomes to learn how reliable they are for you.
