Somatic Practices to Strengthen Your Intuition (A Body-Based Guide)
For a long time, I thought intuition was something I needed to access . Something hidden. Something distant. Something I had to “unlock.” But the truth was much simpler— I wasn’t disconnected from my intuition. I was disconnected from my body. Because intuition doesn’t live somewhere above you, floating around until you sniff it out. It lives within you . And more specifically— within your nervous system, your sensations, your felt experience. Why Somatic Practices Strengthen

7 Signs Your Intuition Is Speaking to You (And How to Recognize It)
There’s a moment most of us know well. You feel something. A pull. A hesitation. A quiet yes or no . And almost instantly—your mind jumps in. Is this real? Am I overthinking? What if I’m wrong? I used to question it constantly. Every decision turned into a spiral. Every feeling needed confirmation. Until I started noticing something subtle: 👉 The first signal was always clear. 👉 It was the thinking that made it confusing. That first signal—that’s intuition. But the challen

Why Your Nervous System Might Be Blocking Your Intuition (And How to Fix It)
Have you ever tried to listen to your intuition…and heard nothing? Or worse—felt everything at once. Confusion. Urgency. Doubt. A thousand internal voices, all speaking at the same time. For a long time, I thought this meant one thing: I can’t trust myself. But that wasn’t true. I wasn’t disconnected from my intuition. I was disconnected from my body. And more specifically— my nervous system wasn’t in a state where intuition could be felt. Intuition Is a Body-Based Experience

How to Feel Your Intuition in Your Body (Not Your Mind) — A Somatic Guide
If you’ve ever wondered how to feel your intuition in your body instead of overthinking every decision, you’re not alone. For the longest time, I thought intuition was something you heard . A voice. A clear answer. A confident “this is the right path.” But when I needed it most—when I was stuck between choices, heart racing, mind spiral l ing— There was nothing. No clarity. No voice. Just noise. Overthinking. Doubt. Endless loops of what if . And I remember thinking: Maybe I’

A Beginner’s Guide to Pendulums (And Why They Actually Work)
I used to live in questions. Not the poetic, soul-searching kind—but the exhausting, looping kind. Should I do this? Is this right? What if I choose wrong? I would ask everyone. Friends, family, sometimes even strangers. Anyone but myself. My intuition was there—I know that now. But back then, it felt distant. Quiet. Like something I couldn’t quite reach. And then, somewhere between slowing down on my yoga mat and getting lost (and found) in India with no plan, I met somethin

"Sisters, not enemies!" The Importance of Women's Circles
A few days ago I stared into the eyes of a woman, who had just finished round three of dishing out insults and prickly remarks straight into my face, while I sat there, with my large 6-month pregnant belly, my inner dialogue raging on about whether I should snap back and dish out some of my yummy insult-fueled minestrone or "be the bigger woman" and respond calmly (while still beating her up in my head). For most of the conversation, if we can call it that, I chose the latter
