Have You Ever Felt Stuck in an Endless Cycle of Overthinking?

If you're anything like I used to be, you're no stranger to second-guessing yourself. Ever since I was a little kid, I overanalyzed everything.

Every decision, big or small, was met with a whirlwind of thoughts: What if I make the wrong choice? What will people think? Should I just go with what everyone else is doing?

I was always in my head, lacking confidence and constantly looking for validation from the outside world.

It was exhausting. But I didn't know another way.

​That is, until I discovered the power of my intuition.

The Turning Point: Trusting My Inner Guidance

A few years ago, I reached a breaking point. I was tired of feeling like every decision was a battle. That’s when I started to connect with my intuition intentionally.

Instead of looking outward for answers, I began looking inward—to my higher self and to the Universe for guidance.

It didn’t happen overnight, but the more I practiced, the clearer the nudges became. I noticed how my body responded when something felt right—a sense of calm, openness, and stability.

And when something was off? There was tension, restlessness, and doubt.

If this sounds like the peace you’ve been craving, keep reading. I'm going to show you how to start recognizing those intuitive nudges and finally stop second-guessing yourself.

Understanding Intuitive Nudges: What They Really Feel Like

One of the biggest misconceptions about intuition is that it’s loud, dramatic, and urgent—like a voice screaming, "Do this right now!" But that’s not how it works.

In fact, true intuitive nudges are calm, quiet, and stable. They don’t rush you or make you feel stressed. If you’re feeling frantic, that's not your intuition—it's your ego trying to take control.

​Here’s how to tell the difference:

Why We Ignore Our Intuition (and How to Change That)

We’ve been conditioned to prioritize logic above all else. From school to the workplace, we're taught that "rational" decision-making is the gold standard—while intuition is often dismissed as wishy-washy, woo-woo or unreliable.

Here’s the truth: logic has its place, but your soul knows best when it comes to your life. Your intuition is like an internal GPS, guiding you toward what’s truly aligned with your highest path.

​Here’s what happens when you start listening to those nudges:

  • You stop wasting time on things that don't align.
  • New opportunities flow to you with ease.
  • You have more energy because you're no longer drained by indecision. 
  • You feel more fulfilled because you're following what truly lights you up. 


How to Strengthen Your Intuition: 5 Simple Practices

1. Get Quiet and Listen

Intuition speaks when the mind is quiet. Try meditation, breathwork, or simply sitting in stillness for a few minutes each day.

2. Tune Into Your Body

Pay attention to how your body feels when you think about a decision. Lightness usually means yes; heaviness often means no.

3. Ask for Signs

Don't be afraid to ask the Universe for confirmation. Look for synchronicities, repeated numbers, or unexpected encounters.

4. Your Nudges

Write down the little gut feelings you get throughout the day. Over time, you’ll start noticing patterns and building trust.
