Speak Your Feeling.
Talk your Feel.

Intuition is really a gift. It truly makes it possible for you to know who you realy are. The difficulty in defining it – the difficulty in working with it – is that it's not something you "do." It's something you "allow" to come through you. You can’t “do” it with your mind; you simply allow it to flow through your heart. It occurs as inspiration and not as perspiration. It’s a “non-doing.”
When I teach my Intuition classes I tell my students, "Don't think; Speak before you think. Your mother or your dad may have said to you, ‘Think before you speak.’ In this case, no, ‘feel first, think later; feel first and speak your feeling.’ What are you feeling?"
Again, Intuition is not a mental effort, it's not a striving, it just manifests through you. You start talking your “feel” and you have no idea where what you are saying is going to lead to. You follow the “golden thread” of your feelings. It’s not scripted; it’s inspired. It comes from the heart and not from the head. And it weaves a beautiful tapestry of meaning and purpose right there before your very eyes.
But it does require you to learn to trust in your Higher Self—in the creative, inspired part of you—rather than the limited, scripted part of your ego mind.
