Ep 67 Fix This Problem! Not Sure If You’re Hearing True Intuition?

Hi, my name is Elise Lebeau, I’m the left brain intuitive, and this is the left brain intuition podcast that special place where logic meets intuition.

I’m really focused in this podcast to giving you as many techniques as possible so that you can hear your intuition more clearly.

Because the solution to the problem you’re having will be more fulfilling, will be easier, will be faster, if it comes from a combination of logic and intuition, which is something that comes from within it bubbles up from within you and it comes from your subconscious.

This is something that we can all do. We all have a subconscious because otherwise our mind would explode. There’s too much information in there and we would not be able to process all of that.

So this whole process, I call that the Intuitive Algorithm, where
you’re able to trigger your intuition on demand.
You’re able to align with what you want.
You’re able to receive your intuitive message
You’re able to take some kind of action that is productive in the direction of what you want.

So one of the problems that you might be having is that you might be asking yourself: Was that my intuition? Was that something else?

And that’s such a good question and it can be confusing because at the end of the day, your Logical Mind and your intuition, they all have the same body- mind connection to talk to you. There is only one microphone here. And it’s just the way that you experience life with all your senses.

Your Logical Mind favors talking to you through words in your conscious stream.

So the logical mind will say things like, okay, if I want to go to the grocery store before dinner, I have to leave at four, because they close at five and then I need to have to have to drive back.

So that’s the Logical Mind. It talks to you in the thought stream that you have throughout the day.

You intuition, doesn’t talk to you like that. Because otherwise, what would happen is all your intuition would be completely lost in the thought stream that is generated by your Logical Mind.

It would be lost.

Intuition uses a different channel to talk to us which is not based on language.

It’s is harder to hear and harder to make sense of, which is why sometimes people find intuition confusing.

So today, the piece that I, that I feel is really important to talk about is how do you know if it’s your Logical Mind or if it’s your intuition.

Your intuition will tend to avoid language because it’s going to collide with your Logical Mind.

So instead your intuition will talk to you with a physical sensation. To try to get your attention and to tell you something.

So maybe you have like a weird feeling at the pit of your stomach.

Or it can send you an image in your mind, you know, something that you see in your mind.

Oh, it can be a sound that you hear, like you hear the melody of a song and maybe there’s interesting lyrics in there for you to look up.

Or it can be an emotion that pops up and you have no idea why all of a sudden you’re so angry.

So those can all be the way that intuition talks to you.

But how do you know, how do you know if you’re angry because somebody was a jerk or if you’re angry because your intuition is saying: “you just said something that was so out of alignment with who you are that this feels terrible.”

So that’s an intuitive message, that’s different than somebody just being a jerk to you.

So, one of the quickest techniques that I teach to differentiate the two is to have something that you do every time that you’re asking a question to your intuition.

So in the beginning, it’s going to feel awkward and a little clunky, because this is not the way that you’ll do it when you’ve been doing it for a long time.

But initially, if you’re not sure if this is intuition or if it’s not, you need a way to tell your mind: I want intuition right now.

Now it’s true that you don’t know how your intuition works. The inner working, because intuition is this massive algorithm that is able to sort all the subconscious data and come up with one thing that is the answer to your question. That’s massive. You don’t know how that works specifically.

However, you can use it to your advantage. This is kind of like a breathing, you know, you don’t know how to expelled toxin from your body through your lungs and, you know, by breathing.

But your body knows how to do it. However, you know that you’re bringing right now, even if I just made you pay attention to it, then you didn’t have to think about it. It’s there.

And you know that you can slow down your breath if you want to. And that if you do that, you’ll be calmer. You know that, so you can use your breath, even if you don’t know how it works, all the details, the bio, mechanical, chemistry details of this, you can use it to your advantage.

And that’s the same thing with intuition. Even if you don’t know all the details of how this is laid out, you can use it to your advantage.

So, if you start to tell your mind, I want to talk to my intuition right now. You are going to send a signal, kinda like, I want to slow my breath down. It was sending a signal to pass the microphone from the Logical Mind to the intuitive mind, to your intuition.

And the stuff that’s going to come out after you’ve done, this is way more likely to be good, intuitive insight that if you don’t do it, And you take your chances.

Or worse if you wait until intuition comes to you in the form of like this massive either epiphany that you’ve been waiting for for three years or in the form of a really painful physical symptom, that is trying to tell you something is wrong.

These things are not under your control, they’re not on demand. They just show up in your life, right.

And that’s tricky when your intuition works this way because you had the mercy of these things happening to you. You can’t really interact with them in a way where you feel empowered.

So if you have something that you do that tells your mind, even though I don’t know how intuition works, I want to talk to that right now.

And your, your mind knows how to do this, at that moment, you are way more likely to get a really good, intuitive insight, on demand, then, if you don’t have something to activate your intuition.

I’m sure that you’ve, you’ve seen people, or maybe you use something like that without realizing it right. So in my case, because I’m a professional intuitive, people would always ask me a question, so that would be how it starts. There would be a question. So sometimes my mind would start to spin because I have ideas with my Logical mind and how to answer it.

And I would have to pause that and say: no, I want the best, the best possible intuitive answer to this question.

So that was my way of activating my intuitive skills.

So some people will have a physical thing that they do.

For example, they will lit a candle, you know, kind of like when people want to meditate, maybe right, they lit a candle. And what does does, is it associates the process of lighting a candle with, oh, okay. I want to talk to my intuition right now.

So now your mind knows how to do that. It’s like, oh, okay. You lit the candle, we are in intuition mode.

And then eventually you can just imagine lighting the candle in your mind and that’s going to be good enough. It doesn’t take long for the mind to understand what you want.

But most of the time, people don’t know that they can ask for intuition on demand. And the first step is to have a way to clearly differentiate who you’re asking.

Are you asking your logical mind or are you asking your intuition?

So find something that you can use to activate your intuition. In the beginning, somebody that’s just starting out, I will encourage them to use a sentence.

So for example: you can say, I am accessing my intuition right now. This is a good activator.

You can use the one I use, which is I want to receive the best intuitive insight about this question. That’s a very good activator.

I’m giving you multiple choices because everybody’s different. And that’s the tricky thing about intuition your intuition does not talk to you the same way my intuition talks to me.

I am familiar though, with most of the ways that intuition talks to us, because I’ve been doing this for so long and I’ve tried them all.

One thing that I know for sure is that the best activator for you is going to be the one that resonates with you. Where you go, oh yeah, I liked this one.

So for example, I was teaching a new client, I hadn’t worked with her all that much. I didn’t know her all that well.

And we were trying to find a good way for her to calm her mind before asking your question. And I have different ways to do that. The one is counting backwards, skipping some numbers. One is using an image.

Every time she would do it, I could see in her energy that it was not really getting her to the place where she would be emotionally neutral, which is what we were trying to accomplish.

And finally she said, you know what? I think if I imagine and I’m at the beach and I can hear the waves, that works. And we tried it and she was right. It totally worked.

So your intuition will tell you what is the best activator for you? So you can keep trying different ones until you go: oh, oh, I like this one. It resonates with you and it can be, you know, like it can be an image or a feeling or something that you do or a phrase that you use.

And it’s the power of clarifying your intention. And once you do that, once you clarify your intention, your mind knows how to do it, it knows how the system works. You don’t have to know that.

But you have to be clear in communicating with your mind what you’re trying to achieve.

Are you wondering if you are intuitive a little, a lot.

I would love for you to take my quick, quick, quick, quick, quick questionnaire. I have been interviewing women for a couple of years now to talk about their intuition and then their intuitive experience, but I’m always looking for more data. I’m a data junkie.

So if you’d love to take that survey, you can go to my website at leftbrainintuitive.com and it’s right at the top, you can’t miss it.

It will give you your intuitive score based on the four fundamental dimensions that are really critical to get a good, intuitive insight.
