Blog #4 - Awakening Intuition.

Updated: Mar 28

We live at a time when the capacity to hear Spirit’s voice speaking within heart and mind has become greater, due to the intensification of light within the physical plane. As a result, even for those who have wandered far away from a spiritual path, the way back is more possible than ever before, because your soul energy never leaves you.


I was blessed after a major road accident with the gift of seeing the aura, however I was only 14yrs old with no understanding at all of what this meant. I believe the head injury opened my awareness to the higher realm of psychic awareness. Needless to say, out of fear I repressed it, and it did not return until I trained as a Reflexologist many years later. Now in my practice as a Psychic Medium and Intuitive Coach I have learned to trust my first impressions when I do a reading or a coaching session. I trust my inner guidance and wisdom will be for the best for my client. You can learn to do this too. It’s all a matter of trusting and allowing that natural awakening to take place. Another important thing to remember is to practice warmth and kindness towards yourself, give yourself regular mind hugs as you learn to trust. This kind energy has a ripple effect and is beneficial for both you and those around you.


All you need is a wish to return and give time and attention to the voice of inner knowing that may have previously been rejected. Think back to times when you had these feelings and didn’t heed the warning. We all get what we call gut feelings that something is not quite right. By learning to know and understand your own intuitive wisdom you will be able to avoid unpleasant situations or wrong decisions.



This inner knowing is what we call intuition. It takes place in silence and in the presence of inspiration that arrives from another level, often by asking and waiting. Meditation is one of the best ways to magnify and recognise your intuition. Though some intuitive perceptions are primarily focused within the physical plane, for example, knowing someone so well that we can anticipate how they might react to something or what they might do, the kind of intuition that may be called ‘higher intuition’ comes from a different place.


It is the voice of understanding that translates messages from the level of the soul where Divine truth, light, and wisdom reside. There doesn’t have to be a great difference between human intuition and higher intuition. And yet, for many there remains a large gap – a space that makes it more difficult to hear the words that are being whispered to and from the soul. In order to bridge this gap, mind and heart have to be willing and there needs to be at least the beginning of trust in one’s capacity ‘to know. This is where meditation and lowering the brain frequency helps us to access our intuition. Intuition is not just receiving messages and hunches it is also about tapping into our psychic abilities and creativity. Meditation will lower the brain frequency to Alpha Level which is the level between 8-12hz and scientifically proven to relax and help us to be more creative and productive as well as intuitive. In my next a blog I will explain more about the main brain frequencies and how using alpha is the easy to access and is wonderful for intuition, psychic development as well as problem solving and removing obstacles.


Intuition does not need to be taught; it needs to be allowed. It is a capacity that has always been within us in a dormant state, waiting for us to turn towards it, as a flower turns to the sun. We can start with a small willingness to 'know’ more of truth, light, and wisdom as it applies to our own life and to the lives of those we love. We can begin to pray to have the obstacles removed that cloud understanding or diminish our perception of what this truth might be. A desire to make contact with higher truth begins to open the doors to inner knowing, especially when such desire is accompanied by a willingness to receive and to pay attention to what has been heard or sensed.


There are people who ‘know’ things who do not believe what their inner senses tell them. They invalidate and reject what they feel or believe. This choice begins to close the doors to higher perception as it gives more power to fear – fear of being wrong, fear of being different, fear of needing to change one’s life based on what is heard. In order to open the doors to intuition and to keep them open, we need to be willing to hear and know, and we need to be willing to trust.


Trust is not a simple thing, for it often involves a re-evaluation of how we have lived our lives. It may be that life has compelled us to be more practical, more focused on the daily tasks of living and providing for others. Or it may be that we have made mistakes in the past concerning who or what to trust. It also may be that we have forgotten that we have the capacity to feel more, to sense more, or to be more open to life on all levels.


Trust involves not only a willingness to receive something from another level of our being. It also involves a willingness to believe in our own capacity to flow with life and to change what needs to be changed on the outside or on the inside. There are many who know a great deal but who are afraid to let themselves recognize this because of where it might take them. This fear must be let go of in order to open the doors further to intuition and to the greater perception of light and truth.





Especially today, when there are so many great issues before us as a collective humanity, and so many actions taken that can have a profound effect on all of humankind, it is especially important that we reclaim our ability to know and to trust. To do otherwise leaves us in the precarious position of not knowing what or who to believe – not knowing which direction to go in, in terms of making the world a better place and relieving the immense suffering that currently exists. Not trusting can lead to us limiting our opportunities and even self-sabotage.


Without access to the deeper intuitive sense that is part of us, we live at the mercy of public opinion rather than in the presence of truth. For reasons that are both personal and are simply part of being human, it is essential, now, for us to open to the light that is present so that we can participate more fully in the collective life of humanity, as well as, in the circumstances of our own lives. It is time to allow our inner senses to awaken and to become the light-filled beings that we are. The time we are in asks this of us, and for each of us, our hearts ask this of us so that we can begin to solve the problems and challenges that are immediately before us. The world is changing and with that so is our DNA we are becoming more aligned to our light body which will transform how we see ourselves and our relationship to others and the planet. Change happens gradually and at the level of awareness you are at, so don't worry that you will be overwhelmed. There will be subtle changes and shifts in your opinions, you will feel more self-aware and compassionate.


I talked briefly about Alpha brainwave frequency earlier. I will go into a deeper delve in my next blog.


So, you can see that the easiest way to access your intuition is by quietening the mind or meditation. We can follow that with a period of silence and emptiness in which we do not know and wait to be shown; we can make ourselves ready to become vessels of truth and light. The recognition of intuition’s gifts may not happen immediately, but it will happen. Developing your intuition is the greatest gift you can give to yourself; you will learn trust your inner voice to guide you and lead you along your life journey. Yes, you will travel upstream from time to time, this is how we grow. But with your intuition as your ally these upstream moments will get less and less. You will feel peaceful and truly know yourself and have the confidence to achieve your dreams.



Much Love
