The 2-Minute Intuition Check-In
Hear yourself again, without forcing it.
Most people think intuition is a rare gift. I don’t.
I think it’s a sense we were trained to ignore. We’re basically coached to override the body in small, everyday ways. Do any of these sound familiar?
You’re hungry but you keep scrolling because “I’ll eat in a minute.”
Your system says, “no more peopling today,” but you RSVP yes anyway because guilt has a strong marketing team.
You walk into a room and everything in you goes nope, and your mind starts building a case for why you should stay.
You read a text and your stomach drops, and you immediately start explaining it away.
None of that means you’re out of touch. It just means you’ve been practicing not listening.
Intuition doesn’t usually arrive as a booming voice. It shows up as a feeling, then a signal. It can be a small tightening, a softening, a gnawing “yes,” or a persistent “no.”
In Lemurian teachings, awareness is the first act of abundance. Not because it’s lofty, but because it changes what’s available.
When we let down our guard and start noticing, we reconnect to what we already know.
This is a 2-minute check-in you can use anytime, especially when your mind is spinning or you feel disconnected from yourself. It brings you back to the place where intuition actually speaks: through emotion and the body.
🌊 The 2-Minute Intuition Check-In
1) Create space (10 seconds).
Put both feet on the floor or feel the surface supporting you.
Let your shoulders drop.
2) Center through breath (20 seconds).
Take three slow breaths.
Inhale awareness.
Exhale tension.
3) Name the emotion (20 seconds).
Ask: “What am I feeling right now?”
Choose one word if you can.
(If you can’t find the word, that’s okay. “I don’t know yet” counts as information.)
4) Locate it in the body (30 seconds).
Ask: “Where do I feel this in my body?”
Chest, throat, belly, jaw, shoulders, hands.
Don’t analyze. Just notice.
5) Ask the one question (30 seconds).
Place a hand over your heart or belly and ask silently:
“What are you showing me?”
Then pause.
The first honest answer is usually the one you’re looking for.
6) Take one small step (10 seconds).
Ask: “What’s the smallest step I can take today?”
Not the perfect step. The real one.
🌊 If you want a simple way to record it (optional)
If you have 30 more seconds, jot this down:
Emotion:
Body signal:
Message (best guess):
Small true step:
Over time, you’ll start to see patterns. Your body has a language. This is how you learn it.
🌊 When to use this
Before a decision
After a conversation that leaves you unsettled
When you feel “off” but can’t explain why
