Dear friends,
In a world saturated with noise, where information flows endlessly and notifications constantly hijack our attention, one essential question remains: how can we recognize the true inner voice amidst all this chaos?
Mind or Intuition?
The mind is just a tool. It compares, analyzes, calculates, projects fears, and always seeks security. But it never brings certainty, because it lives in doubt and conditioning.
The inner voice, on the other hand, is completely different from this turmoil. It doesn’t reason or argue; it comes as a subtle clarity, a gentle breath that enlightens without ever forcing.
And yet, accustomed as we are to the chatter of our thoughts, we often confuse the two.
The Signs of the True Voice
So how do we distinguish intuition from mental noise? A few simple markers:
- It comes effortlessly, without inner debate, as an immediate clarity.
- It doesn’t try to convince or impose itself.
- It is always accompanied by a deep sense of peace, even when it points toward something difficult.
- It withdraws when fear or hesitation take over.
The mind shouts, but the soul whispers. And our path is to learn how to hear these whispers.
How to Develop This Listening?
Like any form of knowledge, listening to the inner voice must be cultivated:
- Give yourself a daily moment of silence, even a short one, to allow depth to emerge.
- Listen to the body’s language: often the heart knows long before the mind.
- Welcome the subtle signs: a phrase that resonates, a dream, a synchronicity… all channels through which guidance flows.
An Invitation to Experience
I invite you today to a simple practice: take one minute of silence. Close your eyes, breathe gently, and ask your heart: “What do you want to tell me right now?”
Do not force the answer. Do not try to understand. Just listen.
You may discover that the voice you’ve been seeking has never been absent. It was only covered by the noise—waiting, patiently, for you to turn towards it.
