8. Start feeling more instead of thinking
Our minds tend to think and chatter nonstop. We can argue with ourselves like some kind of crazy person. However, one thing to keep in mind is that intuition does not think, instead it feels. In order to calm your mind, meditate. Try and relax. Listen to music that can calm your mind. Try to differentiate between what you’re feeling or thinking and meditation can also help you decide between the two.

7. Listen to the first idea that comes to your mind
The very first thing that comes to your mind often times is what your intuition is telling you. Any thoughts that might follow afterwards could just be your logical mind at work with trying to provide answers that might be rational or expected instead of going with your first answer. You may receive images and sometimes even symbols in your mind. You don’t always receive words or messages. Write down what comes to your mind first so that way you can look back and reflect to it later. Don’t back down from what your first thought tells you. Follow through and go with it.

Review the experiences you’ve had in life which might be negative. Reviewing a recent negative experience can be good. Think back to the feelings that you might have had at first warning you to stay away from the situation. Your gut feeling might have been telling you that things were not just right. Maybe you had a vision or either a dream. Try to exam and go over how you felt about everything and review the details as to what all happened. Figure out why you didn’t go with your gut feeling. Trusting your gut feeling will help with preventing these types of mistakes from happening again in the future.
