In a world that is constantly shouting for our attention, it is easy to lose the sound of our own voice. We look outside for answers—scrolling through feeds, asking others what we “should” do, and drowning in information.
Eventually, this noise creates a sense of deep disconnection. You might feel stuck, overwhelmed, or simply like you are living someone else’s life.
What is Inner Wisdom?
Your inner wisdom is not a loud booming voice predicting the future. It is much quieter. It is that subtle nudge in your gut when something feels right (or wrong). It is the sudden clarity that comes when you are washing dishes or taking a shower. It is the part of you that already knows the answer before you even ask the question.
We often block this wisdom out of fear. We worry that our intuition is illogical or unsafe.
How to Begin Reconnecting
Reconnecting doesn’t require grand gestures. It requires gentle shifts:
Create Small Pockets of Silence: You don’t need to meditate for an hour. Try sitting in silence for just five minutes with your morning tea, without your phone. Just notice the thoughts that drift by without grabbing onto them.
Listen to Your Body: Your body often knows before your mind does. When faced with a decision, notice: does your body feel expansive and light, or constricted and heavy? Trust that feeling.
Stop “Should-ing” Yourself: Notice how often you do things because you think you should, rather than because it feels aligned.
Remember, healing is not about becoming someone new. It is about peeling back the layers of noise to remember who you already are.
If you feel you need a supportive space to help you quiet the noise and hear that inner voice again, intuitive guidance can be a gentle stepping stone.
