I used to be a master at overriding my intuition. I would get a feeling about something, sometimes accompanied by one of those thoughts in the back of my mind about a direction or choice to make, and then I would logically make a case for taking a different course of action. Because I placed greater value in my logic than I did in my intuitive hunches, I persuaded myself to follow my logic.
What I eventually discovered was that my intuition was usually more accurate than my logic when it came to my healing journey.When I started listening to my intuition I actually started healing. My intuition told me to stop working before I became stressed and exhausted, while my logic wanted me to over-extend myself.
My intuition guided me to healers and doctors that were truly able to help me, while my logic guided me to experts that didn’t know how to address my specific and unique issues. My intuition guided me to my healing gift—the sound medicine inside me—that I use successfully today for preventing and healing illnesses. My logic thought sound medicine was basically wishful thinking but not real.
Please understand. My logic is great! When my intuition guides me to slow down and rest, my logical mind solves the problem of a day of commitments by re-organizing my schedule so that time becomes available.
When my intuition guides me to a healer, my logical mind will arrange events to get me there. When I’m guided to do sound medicine, my logical mind sets up the equipment and records the sounds. Logic is marvelous and necessary!
However, logic is not superior over intuition when it comes to healing. They both have their place and I need to make sure both of these abilities serve me appropriately if I’m serious about healing. In my own experience, overriding my intuition was frequently a detriment to my health.
So now, when my intuition calls, I listen and let my logic support my intuitive wisdom. How about you, do you follow your intuition?
