5. Exploring Intuitive Practices – Meditation, Mindfulness & Stress Release
Description
In this episode, the discussion revolves around developing intuition through practices of stillness and mindful activities. We share techniques like finding stillness to clear the mind, or performing repetitive physical tasks, which create mental space for truth to emerge. We also explore active forms of meditation such as exercising, crafting, and journaling. Emphasis is placed on intentional actions without expecting immediate results or without any expectations at all, and the importance of releasing stress through mindful practices is highlighted.
