In today’s world, we’re constantly bombarded with information—social media updates, news alerts, opinions from family and friends. It can be overwhelming, and it’s easy to lose touch with your own inner voice. Yet, your intuition is one of your most powerful tools for navigating life’s challenges. It’s that quiet sense of knowing that guides you toward the best decisions for your soul’s growth.
In this blog, we’ll explore how to tune out the noise and start trusting your intuition again.
What is Intuition?
Intuition is often described as a gut feeling, a flash of insight, or a sense of “knowing” without needing to logically work through a problem. It’s that nudge that tells you something feels right—or warns you when something feels off. I believe intuition is our soul’s way of communicating with us, offering guidance that’s aligned with our highest good.
Some people experience their intuition through physical sensations, like a knot in the stomach or a tingle in the spine. Others might hear an inner voice, see symbols, or simply have a strong feeling about something. However it comes to you, your intuition is deeply personal and unique to you.
Why We Struggle to Trust Our Intuition
“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.”
One of the main reasons we struggle to trust our intuition is because the world around us is noisy. From a young age, we’re taught to rely on logic and reasoning over our inner knowing. We’re conditioned to doubt ourselves, often asking others for advice before trusting our own feelings.
Social media, news, and constant connection to technology can also drown out our intuitive voice. When we’re constantly absorbing information from the outside world, it’s harder to tune in to what’s happening within us. But with practice, you can learn to quiet the external noise and strengthen your connection to your intuition.
Simple Ways to Reconnect with Your Intuition
Here are a few ways you can start rebuilding your trust in your intuition:
1. Start Small
If you’ve been disconnected from your intuition for a while, it can feel daunting to dive straight into big decisions. Start by using your intuition in smaller, everyday situations. For example, if you’re deciding what to eat for dinner, close your eyes and listen to your body. What does it crave? The more you practise tuning in to your inner voice in these small ways, the easier it becomes to trust your intuition with larger life decisions.
2. Create Quiet Moments
One of the easiest ways to strengthen your intuition is to create moments of quiet in your day. You don’t need to meditate for hours or escape to a remote location—just find a few minutes each day to sit in silence. During these moments, focus on your breath, and notice any thoughts or feelings that arise. Over time, this practice helps to clear mental clutter and makes it easier for your intuition to come through.
3. Pay Attention to Your Body
Your body is often the first place where intuitive messages show up. Notice how your body reacts to different situations and people. Do you feel a sense of ease or tension? Is there a lightness in your chest, or does your stomach tighten? These physical sensations are your intuition’s way of communicating with you.
The next time you need to make a decision, take a moment to check in with your body. How do you feel physically when you think about each option? Trust these feelings—they are often more reliable than your logical mind.
4. Use Tarot to Tap Into Your Inner Knowing
Tarot is one of my favourite tools for tapping into intuition. The cards don’t predict the future, but they do help you access your inner wisdom. When you pull a tarot card, it’s not about finding an external answer—it’s about exploring the energies and themes that resonate with your situation.
For example, if you’re unsure about a decision, try a simple one-card tarot pull. Ask your higher self, “What do I need to know about this situation?” and see what card comes up. Don’t focus on the traditional meanings of the card—instead, notice how the card makes you feel. What thoughts or emotions does it stir up? Your intuition will often guide you to the answer you need through the imagery and energy of the card.
5. Trust Your First Instinct
Your first instinct is often the most intuitive. When you overthink a decision, it’s easy for fear and doubt to creep in. But that initial gut feeling—the one that comes to you before you’ve had time to rationalise it—is usually your intuition speaking.
Try this: the next time you’re faced with a choice, notice your first reaction. Before you’ve had time to analyse the pros and cons, what does your gut say? Trust that response, even if it doesn’t seem logical. Over time, you’ll learn that your first instinct is usually the most aligned with your soul’s path.
How I Help Clients Strengthen Their Intuition
In my readings, I often help clients reconnect with their intuition by guiding them through a process of self-reflection. Whether it’s through tarot, face reading, or simply a conversation, I help you quiet the external noise and tune in to your inner voice.
For example, if a client is struggling to make a decision about their career, I’ll use tarot to explore the energies influencing the situation. Then, I’ll help them listen to their body’s reactions and trust their first instincts. Often, clients find that they already know the answer—they just needed a little help trusting it.
I also incorporate Chinese Face Reading to help clients understand their personality traits and how they naturally process intuitive information. For instance, someone with a high forehead may be more intellectual and analytical, while someone with prominent eyes may be more emotionally intuitive. By understanding these traits, we can tailor intuitive practices that work best for you.
Conclusion: Your Intuition is Your Superpower
In a world full of external noise, your intuition is your most reliable guide. It’s a tool that connects you to your inner truth and helps you make decisions that are aligned with your highest good. By practising simple techniques to strengthen your intuition, you can navigate life with more confidence, clarity, and ease.
Remember: your intuition is always there, waiting for you to listen. All you need to do is create the space for it to speak.
