In making a decision with intuition, consider your body being a Geiger counter, or a pendulum when getting an answer.  Here is an exercise you can do based on an NLP exercise from Robert Diltz.  I have tweaked it to be an intuition tool.

1)  Have a decision you want to make.

2) Get 6 pieces of blank paper.

3) Quest your question down on one page.

4) Write your first solution on another page.  Then write your second solution down. At this point you probably have already figured out an either/or solution.  Now write a third solution.  Then a fourth and a fifth. Now you are entering into a creative space because you haven’t figured out all these answers.  Just make them up, have fun with them.  It doesn’t matter how crazy they are…they are coming from somewhere.  Remember to write down the thoughts as they come to you without judging them.

5)  Lay the five answers a few feet away from each other on the floor.

6)  Stand back, take deep breaths, clear your head, count backwards or receive your school teachers…something to take you  mind off the process.

7)  Stand on Solution #1, pantomime the answers as if you have to explain it to someone who can’t hear.  Afterwards, stand back and access how it feltlt, did you feel hard like concrete, did you hands rub your head, eyebrows furrowed, hand on hips, or pointing.  Just notice how you body enterpreted this.

8)  Breathe again, mind off solution, and repeat for solution #2.  Continue until you finish.  What did your body say brought you the most energy?  Where were your eyes wide open, arms up in the air, heart open, shoulders back?  Which one brought you the most joy?

9)  Work with the joyful one.  Keep it in mind, you will get new ideas and take action.  Remember, intuition acts one step at a time, since it is always in the present.  Take that step, then you’ll get the next.

Have fun going In Tu It!
