Like everyone, I am sometimes faced with important decisions. Choosing the right path is never easy.

I often spend hours weighing the pros and cons, asking for advice, and end up stressing over the possibility of making the wrong choice. In those moments, I feel lost, disconnected from my deeper self, as if a thick fog were clouding my inner vision.

Usually, most of us rely on logic and the advice of others to try to find the best option. We analyze every detail, overthink, or even delay our decisions, hoping an obvious solution will eventually emerge. Of course, rational thinking has its place, but there is a guide we often overlook: our intuition.

Over time, I learned that I couldn't rely solely on logic. In fact, I discovered that I needed to embrace another aspect of myself—my feminine energy—to better listen to that inner voice.

Here are some tools and techniques to help you do the same.

Intuition can manifest in many ways. Sometimes it’s a deep feeling in the pit of your stomach, a sudden insight that brings clarity to a moment of confusion, or a subtle shiver, barely noticeable yet very real. It’s that inner voice trying to guide us, though we don’t always hear it.

The first step in listening to your intuition is learning to recognize these subtle signs. They are always present, but often hidden beneath the noise of our thoughts.


To truly hear that voice, I too had to learn to reconnect with my feminine energy. This isn't about gender, but rather an invitation to embrace the receptive and intuitive side of our being. Feminine energy is the ability to listen, to show empathy, and to nurture what is fragile within us.

Everyone, whether man or woman, possesses this energy. When you embrace it, you open a door to deeper wisdom, to who you truly are.

Silence is a powerful tool for calming the mind. We live in a world where every moment is filled with noise—conversations, notifications, and constant thoughts. By creating moments of silence, you give yourself the space to recenter, to quiet the external chatter, and allow what’s buried within you to surface. It’s in this stillness that the quiet voice of your intuition can finally be heard.

2. Practice self-awareness: the art of inner observation

Being mindful of yourself means learning to observe without judgment. When you take the time to notice your reactions, emotions, and behaviors, you create a bridge to better understanding what you truly feel. The more connected you are to yourself, the easier it becomes to catch those subtle signs your intuition leaves along the way.

3. Journaling: a conversation with your soul

Writing is a dialogue with yourself. Keep a journal where you record your thoughts, emotions, and intuitions, will you give yourself the opportunity to step back and reflect. Journaling helps you organize your ideas and bring clarity to what you're experiencing. Ask yourself questions like, "What is my intuition telling me today?" Often, the answers emerge on their own, as if they were simply waiting for you to invite them in.

4. Dream analysis: a direct path to your subconscious

Your dreams are an open window to your subconscious. Every symbol, every recurring theme carries a message for you. Keep a dream journal and notice what regularly reappears. Your intuition often speaks through these dreamlike spaces, offering clues that only your conscious mind can decode.

1. Body awareness: listen to what your body is telling you

Your body is a vessel of wisdom. Through practices like yoga or tai chi, you learn to become more attuned to its signals. When you pay attention to the physical sensations you experience in different situations, you begin to understand how your body reacts to decisions you need to make. It’s an intuitive guide in itself.

2. Emotional intelligence: learning from your emotions

Our emotions are powerful indicators, yet we often try to avoid or rationalize them. Take the time to fully experience your emotions. They often guide you toward what is right for you. The more aware you are of what you feel, the more accessible your intuition will become.

3. Creative activities: open the door to inspiration

Creativity is a direct path to your intuition. Whether through painting, writing, or music, allow your imagination to flow freely. When you create, you step into a space where logic no longer dominates, and it’s in that space that your intuition can fully express itself.

4. Connection with nature: return to the heart of what’s essential

Nature is a mirror for our soul. By walking in the forest or immersing yourself in natural surroundings, you reconnect with your essence. The simplicity and stillness of these moments help to clear your mind, allowing you to hear the whispers of your intuition.

In decision making : learn to balance logic and intuition. Before making a decision, take a moment to listen to what your heart is telling you. Often, a simple truth will emerge if you give it the space it needs.

In relationships : your intuition can also be a valuable guide in your interactions. Pay attention to how you feel in the presence of others. Sometimes, a fleeting impression can reveal far more than lengthy analysis.

In problem solving : intuition, combined with logic, is a powerful tool for overcoming challenges. When faced with difficulty, take a moment to listen to your feelings. They can lead you to solutions you might never have considered otherwise.

Listen to your intuition and reconnect with your feminine energy, to develop an unshakable inner strength. That small voice inside already knows what is right for you. Embrace qualities such as receptivity, empathy, and creativity, and you will see your intuition grow stronger.

The wisdom you need is already within you. All it takes is giving it the attention it deserves.
