Why Using Your Intuition In Practical Ways Every Day Can Be Key To Your Success
Welcome!
I'm Kathy Henderson-Sturtz…Kat to my friends. And, boy, does the nickname suit me. I can be very finicky, have used up several of my nine lives, and love catnaps.
The phrase that best describes me is: habitually curious and creatively organized.
Whether we want to or not, we are all intuitive. It's a part of being human. It's because we are composed of energy. Everything in the Universe is. Modern technology has even proven that something as seemingly lifeless as a rock, is made up of energy particles that move and flow.
Some of us have learned how to access our intuition more deeply and directly than others … and to not be afraid of it. Some choose to ignore it, or to believe in coincidence, yet still acknowledge gut level feelings. Others readily acknowledge that the energy of some people feels distant, dangerous, wary or off-putting. Or just the opposite, such or when new friends instantly feel they've know each other forever. The energy between them is warm, loving and trusting.
Becoming more attuned to subtle energies is key to becoming more comfortable with our intuition. Why wouldn't we want the information and guidance it can provide to us?
It does not matter if you believe in a Christian or Jewish God…or any other deity for that matter. It does not matter if you believe in a Supreme Being. Or a Universal Energy that together is greater than the sum of all our parts. It does not matter if you are agnostic or atheist.
You are a made of energy. And because you are, whether you welcome the insight or not, there are times in your life when you know or feel something to be true that you can not rationally or logically explain how that knowledge...that wisdom…came to be inside you.
I've always been highly intuitive.
I can't recall a time when I wasn't. But I can pinpoint almost to the day and time when I first realized it wasn't always safe or prudent to tell others, particularly adults, what I was sensing intuitively. For a long time I deliberately avoided learning more about intuition and how our psyches and senses can work energetically with one another. Yet, I also knew…in fact, reminded myself on numerous occasions…that a day would come when I would be ready to explore the endless possibilities and opportunities that developing my intuition would provide.
That day came July 15, 1971. It's the day I took notice and said out loud to no one in particular: I got it. I know I'm supposed to pay attention. I know I supposed to do something with this intuition of mine. I was supposed to share what I knew and would learn. But most importantly, the challenge that came strongest to mind was this –
How could I use my intuition in practical ways every day to improve my life and the lives of those around me?
To learn more about my philosophy on ourselves as intuitive energy beings, why as children we are freely intuitive, yet so many adults either fear or poo-poo its relevance and wisdom, and the importance of rediscovering this ability I invite you to read the the interview I did with Terra Spencer in 2011.

It's amazing, not to mention a bit daunting to see how far the Internet and World Wide Web have come in such a relatively short time. However, as a highly intuitive someone who was using online resources before there was such as the Internet — I used to dial into CompuServe, GEnie and various university online library catalogs — I can't say that I'm entirely surprised.
The habitually curious side of me remains fascinated by science in general, as well as new developments and expanding uses of more traditional means of communication. It even appeals to the sensitive and spiritual side of me.
Still,I prefer the comfort and feel of the more ordinary world — curling up with a good novel in a comfortable armchair, sipping hot fragrant herbal tea with my cat, Jiffy, snuggled in my lap, puttering about the yard tending the garden and flowerbeds, feeding the goldfish in my tiny pond, enjoying a theater performance (on-stage or in the audience), traveling off the beaten path, or leisurely strolling the rooms of historic buildings hand-in-hand with my hubby.
Hurray for worldly advancements in technology but thank God we still can reach out to touch, feel, see, smell, taste and intuit all the amazing Universe has to offer. I hope you'll be a frequent visitor here. Several Spiritual Friends will be dropping in from time to time with special posts. I'm honored by their generosity and willingness to share their expertise and experiences with all of us here.
