Intuition is a sense of knowing how to act spontaneously, without needing to know why. The why question leads to indecision, anxiety, caution and self-limitation. There are all responses which originate in fear-based emotions.

About This Quote

Intuition is the feeling that you know what to do without being able to explain why you are doing it. It is the unconscious part of your brain which knows what to do without being told so. There are times when you feel that something is right or wrong, even if you are not sure why. Intuition is sometimes called a sixth sense.

Without it, you would have to consciously think about your actions every single time before making them. For example, you might know that taking medication will help your condition, but without being told why that is the case, you might be reluctant to take it because you are afraid that taking something will harm you. When asked, “Why?” after giving birth, many women find they were intuitively willing to do whatever their bodies needed to do to bring the baby into the world.
