“There is a voice that doesn’t use words. Listen.” ~ Rumi

Think you might be highly intuitive… but not totally sure?
This one’s for you!

If you’ve ever felt drained around certain people, had vivid dreams that seemed to mean something, or just knew the truth before anyone said a word — you’re not alone.

if you’ve ever felt things deeply, known truths without being told, or needed space to simply be, you are not alone — and you are not imagining it.

These signs point to a deep inner wisdom that’s ready to be explored. Ready to tune in?

Intuition is more than just a hunch. It is the quiet voice of your higher self, the inner guidance system that speaks through sensation, emotion, and energy. In my work as a spiritual psychotherapist, I’ve witnessed how powerful and often misunderstood intuition can be — especially in those who’ve been conditioned to doubt it.

And that is why it becomes the perfect time for deep healing reflection.

I usually use this month to go deep into a reflective state, almost like a year end ritual that nurtures my heart and soul positively.

That’s why I call it a positive reflection on the year gone by. Because honestly, by default we go into a negative state…which ultimately is not healing or productive.
