Summary

What if the key to navigating uncertainty and making truly aligned decisions lies not just in logic, but in an ancient wisdom tradition?

I was fascinated to learn from Hrund Gunnsteinsdottir about 'Innsæi: Heal, Revive and Reset with the Icelandic Art of Intuition’, which she beautifully describes as 'the sea within.' This isn't about vague hunches; it’s an effective way to harness unconscious information for better choices and actions, especially when facing the unknown.

We delve into how you can cultivate this 'inner compass'—learning to 'see within' to distinguish intuition from biases, and 'see from the inside out' to navigate life's turbulence. Discover why your attention is the gateway to this power and how simple practices, like keeping an attention journal, can help you regain ownership of it. You’ll also understand the 'two rhythms' of knowing when to switch between analysis and intuition, transforming how you approach problems and become more prepared for the unexpected.

It's about developing this innate skill, like a muscle, for long-term success and a deeper connection to your own inner genius.
