Everyone is born with intuition, explains author Shatki Gawain. The problem is, most people learned to suppress the natural connection to their intuition and were trained to rely solely on their logical, rational mind. "Many people who are not accustomed to being consciously in touch with their intuition imagine that it is a mysterious force that would come to them through some transcendent mystical experience," Gawain writes. "In fact, intuition is a very practical, down-to-earth tool that is always available to help us deal with the decisions, problems, and challenges of our daily lives."
Like Judith Orloff's Guide to Intuitive Healing, Gawain spends most of the book emphasizing the practical uses of this seemingly mystical skill. In her opening chapters Gawain offers relaxation and meditation exercises that nurture intuitive awareness. From there she discusses how to interpret and apply the intuitive messages we receive in our daily lives. For example, Gawain shows how intuition can help readers overcome addictive behaviors, create prosperity, or heal physical ailments. It can also be used to enhance emotional stability or clarify career paths.
Gawain has a long history of writing straightforward, self-help primers that cover elusive spiritual material. Once again she has done an excellent job. Developing Intuition is a sensibly organized beginner's guide to intuition that steadily paces readers through a wealth of insight. --Gail Hudson
"Shakti Gawain illustrates well that by being still and present enough in our lives we access divine wisdom."
-- James Redfield, author of The Celestine Prophecy
"This is a definitive work on the development and use of intuition. It is empowering, practical, and a pleasure to read -- the very best of Shakti Gawain. Her brilliance as a leader among world teachers shines as she gently, and with great clarity, makes the mysterious world of intuition accessible to everyone."
-- Hal Stone, PhD, and Sidra L. Stone, PhD, authors of Partnering and Embracing Our Selves
