Daily Meditation Podcast Instant Intuition Breath, Day 3: Intuitive Intelligence: Hacking Your Gut-Brain Axis for Clarity
Today's session uses a Vagus Nerve breathing technique focused on deep, slow exhales to instantly calm your nervous system and reduce the "pit in the stomach" feeling. This practice clears the static on the gut-brain highway, allowing your intuitive signals to be transmitted clearly and immediately.
WELCOME TO THIS WEEK'S SERIES:
Are you tired of leaving your big decisions to endless spreadsheets and overthinking? This week, we dive into Intuitive Intelligence, the powerful, science-backed way your body makes brilliant choices by listening to your Gut-Brain Axis—the direct highway between your enteric nervous system and your mind. Over seven days, you'll learn to cut through the analytical noise, bypass "analysis paralysis," and confidently trust the internal signals that lead to your best life.
This is day 3 of a 7-day meditation series, "Intuitive Intelligence: Hacking Your Gut-Brain Axis for Clarity," episodes 3402-3406.
YOUR WEEKLY CHALLENGE: The 3-Second Pause Challenge
Before making any non-urgent decision this week (e.g., ordering lunch, responding to an email, selecting a task), pause for exactly three seconds. Place your hand gently on your solar plexus or abdomen and ask: "Does this feel expansive or contractive?" This simple ritual trains you to access your gut's instant feedback loop before the logical mind jumps in..
