What I Noticed at a Showing Today

As I waited for a client today, I watched and listened as the dry leaves clattered along the street, and a warm breeze blew through still-green leaves in that way that tells you summer is coming to an end.

It was a multi-sensory experience capsule lasting only five minutes or so. But it was so rich! How amazing it is to see, and feel, and smell, and touch! To be human in this wacky, beautiful world.

I got home after several appointments and got a Facetime call from one of my grandsons. He’d had a rough day and was tired, and he called and hung up, called and hung up, cycling in a sensory attempt to shake off his stress. That ability, too, is pretty impressive, instinctively managing the wondrous and terrible emotions that are part of the human condition in the only way a 3-year-old knows to.

In the middle of all that wonder, I thought again about that other sense we use that we sort of overlook: our intuitive sense, the ability to relate to others in ways that we don’t even realize. In fact, we often don’t even know it is happening.

There’s a lot of research, both scientific and experiential, in the hypnotherapy and near-death experience space that says communication happens first in an unspoken form, in a split second. It’s why we’re counseled to trust our first impression. Because it’s a real thing. No algorithm can deliver that split-second impression; that’s what it means to be a living being.

And in this AI-driven world we live in right now, it’s more important than ever to not just realize this is happening, but to honor it by learning to hear it daily, consistently. Sometimes that takes the form of letting your ears tell you what time of year it is. Sometimes it means stepping back with a client instead of pressing for a close. Your intuitive brain knows, even when your conscious brain doesn’t.

The world is screaming right now for honesty and integrity…and you have it right inside yourself already. It is the antidote to every AI-driven shortcut. 

The Agent Within is a self-guided hypnotherapy course I created to help you find that voice, to learn what it sounds and feels like, and to break through the conventions that hold you back from expressing it genuinely and confidently. Answering that call may just be why you’re here.
