Intuition is a natural part of us. Someone „knows“ out of the blue, someone has a certain feeling, someone else has angels talking to them, someone else suddenly has a picture in front of their eyes. It's just a matter of discovering your own way and going a little bit towards it. Perhaps through yoga, meditation and choosing foods that can support our intuition.
Trusting your intuition takes courage
We live in Europe and we rely on facts and figures, we are taught to analyse, evaluate, assess and then draw conclusions. Intuition is like a voice from another planet. It comes out of the blue and tells us to turn now, even though we plan to go straight. That we should call a friend we haven't seen in a while and she will then „accidentally“ give us exactly the information we needed. It's simply about having the courage to trust our gut feelings, what the British call „gut feeling“ - what our gut feels. Like everything in our lives, it takes practice.
Energy centres - chakras
Sensing, or if you prefer, connecting, happens through the energy centres of the „chakras“. The word chakra in Sanskrit means wheel because it turns like a wheel and resembles a water whirlpool. Individual chakras receive and process energy and are connected to specific endocrine glands.
Just as the colours of the light spectrum have different wavelengths depending on the speed of vibration, so too the chakras rotate at different speeds and have corresponding colours. The chakras located in the lower parts of the body vibrate slowly, with colours ranging from red to yellow; as we go higher up the body, the vibration increases and the colours change from green to blue and violet. Most of us are familiar with the seven main chakras located along the spine, but there are other energy centers on our body. In particular, the chakras located in the upper body convey intuitive information. The seventh crown chakra is the place of divine connection, the third eye mediates images, the chakras located in the ear area mediate auditory sensations, and we sense through the heart chakra and solar plexus.
Intuition is essentially a „phone line“ to heaven, a connection to the Source, the Universe, the Divine Principle. In order to pick up the signal at all and be able to hear it without noise, noise and other „stations“, we have to be attuned to it. We pick up signals better in stillness or in meditation. When we are anxious, afraid or irritated, we cannot hear the signal.
Find out how your intuition manifests
We connect with the outside world through the five senses, intuition is said to be the sixth. Taste, smell, sight, hearing and touch are our connection to reality. But we also have corresponding internal senses through which we process energy. The chakras and subsequently our endocrine and nervous systems are able to pick up „negative“ or „positive“ energies even before our five physical senses. This is where we talk about intuition. But for each of us, a different kind of intuitive perception prevails.
Clear vision (clairvoyance)
The energies one perceives are translated through images, symbols and visual messages. Not everyone has three dimensional prophetic visions, but you may have had dreams that eventually came true, or seen flashes of light, or had visions seen with your inner vision. Divine or angelic messages are perceived visually. Thus you perceive the energy between you and your angels. Light blue may indicate that Archangel Michael is with you, emerald green is the color of Archangel Raphael.
The third eye, the sixth chakra, the place between the physical eyes, is where mental images can be seen. The third eye is constantly processing energies, but most of us keep the third eye closed, perhaps it is a protection and defense against images that would displease our eye, or a fear of losing control.
Clear Hearing
Here the energies are translated through hearing. Hearing is the most important channel for you to convey important messages. You simply hear important names and advice, for example, when you wake up in the morning. The angels and God speak to you, you hear them. Sometimes you may be confused and your ego may whisper to you that you are actually making it all up. If you have this talent, you are very sensitive to sounds, so surround yourself with gentle sounds.
Clear knowledge
This inner sense allows you to „know“ instantly without having to go through some complicated process to know, basically you know and you don't know how you figured it out. You receive guidance through your thoughts. If this is your gift, pay attention to your thoughts. They come through the crown chakra.
Clear Sentience
It combines the above three ways of seeing clearly and relates to your sensing. You may feel that someone is following you, that someone is calling you, you may smell the perfume of a person who is not present at all, or you may „just“ have a negative feeling when you meet a person. Many business people and successful people use this type of intuition on a daily basis in their decision making, relying on their feelings.
Support your intuition
We have our bodies at our disposal to achieve fulfillment and our purpose in life. Everything you put into yourself to fulfill them has a great effect on how you live your days, experience your days, how you feel and also on your intuition. There are no one-size-fits-all recommendations, each of us is an original, we are all unique. Trust your intuition even when you choose your meals. Trust that this particular dish will make you feel good if you feel that way. It's the same with food preparation, some people feel great with a raw diet, meaning fruits and vegetables without heat, while others prefer seasonal cooked, spicy foods. But beware of genetically modified foods. These are not of divine origin, but rather the work of Frankenstein. Choose fresh, locally sourced and perhaps organic.
The enemies of our intuition:
- Foods high in gluten. We consume more wheat than is healthy! If you consume a lot of pastries, cookies and more, know that gluten is gluing your third eye and making it hard to see angels and other creatures
- Refined sugar - sugar crystals basically deprive you of energy, you may feel tired, weak, exhausted...lack the energy to act
- Dairy products - if you consume a lot of them, meditation may be a problem for you, you may find it difficult to concentrate on your goals
- Unhealthy fats they block your energy system and your feelings can be misleading and you may hear the voice of the ego instead of intuition
To keep the endocrine system working as it should, provide it with fuel:
- Vitamin A - in green leafy, yellow and orange vegetables, e.g. spinach, carrots, peppers. Supports the immune system, vision, reproduction and cell communication
- Group B vitamins
- B1 - in seeds, beans, peas and whole grains. Important for processing energy from ingested food, supports heart and nerve function.
- B5 - in broccoli, fish, chicken, avocado, yogurt, whole grains. Promotes proper melatonin production
- B6 - in poultry, fish, red meat, whole grains and rice. It supports immunity and proper functioning of the metabolism.
- B12 - in fish, cereals, fermented foods and yeast. It helps keep the blood and nervous system in good shape. Vegans need to make sure they get enough of this vitamin through supplementation.
- Vitamin C - in citrus, red and green peppers, kiwi, broccoli. It performs the function of an antioxidant, protects cells from damage, helps absorb iron.
- Vitamin D - in fatty fish. It improves calcium absorption, helps cell growth and the proper functioning of the immune system.
- Iodine - in seaweed and dairy products. It helps the proper functioning of the thyroid gland.
- Omega 3 fatty acids - in fish, flaxseed, chia seeds, nuts. It helps the proper functioning of many bodily functions.
- Selenium - in seaweed, cereals, dairy products and Brazil nuts. It plays an important role in thyroid hormone metabolism and cell protection.
Green is good for intuition
Your diet should be bursting with green! Include vegetables in different ways and not just green ones. Add nuts, seeds and seasonal fruits. Don't forget good quality fats like olive oil. Whole grains will give you energy, prefer gluten-free ones. Try quinoa and buckwheat.J Fish will give you protein. Other meats and dairy products should be reduced.
Try the „spiritual“ openers!
You can use an ordinary kitchen blender. When we consume a smoothie or fresh juice, we should remember that the carrot, broccoli or other plant has sacrificed for us in some way and that we should make the best use of this energy. It is through smoothies and juices that we consume high vibrational life energy. We are drinking the life force.
Use broccoli, spirulina, cucumber, kale or spinach. Emerald green connects us to the heart chakra, and is the color of the archangel Raphael. Green opens the heart.
