It is going to help you in life, and in your reiki healing if you can improve the strength of your intuition.

Intuition is like a muscle. It grows in strength if you look after it.

Here are the top 5 tips from reikiblogger to improve your intuition, in no particular order:

 #1 Stop Smoking

Smoking clogs your energy channels. It clouds your mind. And adds waves of cravings to your mental lanscape. The key to good intuition is mental discipline. If you can control your mind, your intuition will be more readily available to you. For most smokers smoking is an addiction. Whenever you have that kind of mental habit, you are building a dam stopping the gentle flow of your intuition.

#2 Health and fitness

Having good health and fitness helps your intuition. Fatty and greasy foods make your mind cloudy. Intuition is a subtle sense. If your mind is not clear it will be difficult to sense it. Too, if you get tired easily during a treatment (which may go for 1 hour to 1.5 hours) you will find it harder to concentrate and keep your mind from wandering.

 #3 Daily Meditation

Intuition is linked to mental stability and discipline. One of the best ways to “tame” your roving thoughts is to practise daily sitting meditation. The key to daily meditation is the consistency. Not so much how well your meditation seems to be going. By developing the habit your mind will become more under your control, less unruly.

#4 Follow Through

This follows tip #3. The reason why daily practise of meditation is important (even if the session only goes for 5minutes) is your mind begins to take you more seriously. Same with addictive habits like smoking. If your mind knows that you will cave into it if it puts enough pressure on you, then it will never be quiet enough for you to touch your intuition. Conversely, by following through, by doing what you say you will do, with commitment, your mind learns it cannot push you around, and it quietens down.

#5 Get out of the way

Do not conceptualize. If you really want to increase the power of your intuition then you need to stop your commentary. You need to sense. Rather than think. There is no opinion in the relm of intuition. Just what is. Just try to remember, intuition is just another sense. And not an infallible tool for divining the spiritual path. Try not to make following your intuition a license to forget love and kindness. While it is most definitely the door to wisdom, it is only the door.
