A-Z OF COACHING
Welcome to Barefoot Coaching's A-Z series. We aim to simplify what might otherwise be complex psychological theories and models and talk about them in a way that anybody can understand. We believe that everybody benefits from learning about and practising coaching skills - and it's catching! Coaching spreads into other areas of our life and work and the positive effects are felt far beyond just ourselves. Each issue we will be focusing on a different element of
coaching. Last month we explored Happiness, this month we will focus on Intuition.
'I' IS FOR INTUITION
"There is a voice that doesn't use words. Listen." Rumi
If you have ever followed a "hunch", gone with your gut, listened to your inner voice, or felt "I just know", then you have accessed your intuition. We don't have to reject logic or intellect to embrace intuition - good decisions are often the result of instinct and intellect working together.
Here are 3 ways to improve your intuition:
. Wild writing. Every day for a week, sit quietly and write for 5 minutes without thinking. Just let the words appear on the page. Then notice what you learn from your untamed thoughts.
Walking without purpose. Go for a walk (without your phone or others distractions). Take notice if you find your attention being drawn to any particular sights or sounds. Identify what feelings, thoughts or meaning they have for you.
When faced with a decision, ask yourself "What does my head, heart and gut say?"
