Learning to discern a gut feeling from anxiety is a gradual process that requires self-awareness and reflection. It involves tuning into the body’s signals and noticing whether a sense of calm clarity (gut feeling) or fear and worry (anxiety) is present. With practice, you begin to recognize the subtle differences—gut feelings are often immediate and neutral, while anxiety tends to linger and create overthinking. By regularly checking in with yourself and observing how each feels, you’ll become better at distinguishing intuition from fear-based reactions.
here are some helpful tips about learning how to understand the difference between your intuition and your anxiety.
This is a wonderful read! I so often times just fill myself with anxiety and for no reason. Often times I’ve overthought to the point of now having created a scenario in my head that will never come to pass, and then o get stressed, then depressed and this cycle continues. Thank you for sharing this. Namaste.
