Produktbeschreibung
A captivating and insightful deep dive into the world of human intuition, exploring the power of this elusive phenomenon and how it can be harnessed to better know and trust ourselves.

We rely on our intuition, even though we don't fully understand what it is, how it works, or if we can even trust it. In this fresh, mind-opening book, Elizabeth Greenwood takes us on a sweeping investigation into the subject, exploring how, in our data-driven world, we can harness intuition in our day-to-day lives.

Digging deep into her personal experience as well as insights from neuroscience, psychology, , feminist texts, psychics, and everyday people with extraordinary intuitive ability, Greenwood explores what we know about intuition-how to distinguish it from instinct, wishful thinking, anxiety, and denial; how it serves and sometimes fails us; how it impacts our dreams and unconscious behavior; and how it manifests in everything from romantic attraction to premonitions. Greenwood places a special emphasis on "women's intuition," and how it has been denigrated throughout history-but can offer us a more hopeful, grounded way of experiencing the world in a time of so much uncertainty.

Everyday Intuition provides practical advice on tapping into our self-knowledge and learning to trust our instincts. It examines the science behind intuition, including how our brains process information, how psychedelic medicine and manifestation are opening new doors of consciousness-as well as how these helpful methods are being abused by charlatans, including some "coaches," "teachers," and social media influencers offering false promises-and how we can train ourselves to be more intuitive and ultimately enhance our daily lives.

Smart, funny, sincere, and profound, this helpful guide is a modern take on one of the oldest tools we possess. It shows us how embracing intuition can lead us to our truest, most mindful selves, and to better align the lives we are living with the lives we desire.

Rezensionen
"If you have a hunch this book is for you, grab it! Everyday Intuition is a brilliant guide to one of our most mysterious, most misunderstood, and most fundamentally human faculties. Whether you come for the practical tips, eye-opening stories, or the many laugh-out-loud asides, Elizabeth Greenwood offers gem after gem to challenge your understanding of the mind, tease your preconceptions of the science, and help build your own intuition into a tool for life." - Benjamin Lorr, author of The Secret Life of Groceries

"Intuition isn't magic, and it sure as hell isn't woo-it's real, it's wired into us, and it's been dismissed for too long. In Everyday Intuition, Elizabeth Greenwood kicks the door in, bringing neuroscientists, dancers, doctors, athletes, mothers, kids, and skeptics to the table to prove it. This isn't guesswork-it's gut work. Deeply researched, wildly relatable, and sharp as hell, this book will make you stop outsourcing your decisions and start trusting what's been there all along: you." - Jessica Elefante, author of Raising Hell, Living Well: Freedom from Influence in a World Where Everyone Wants Something from You

"Everyday Intuition describes Elizabeth Greenwood's fascinating journey through the worlds of psychology, science and psychics. All these worlds can work together to enhance your intuition." - Judith Orloff, MD, author of Second Sight and The Empath's Survival Guide

"Like blood, intuition is something you are born with. Elizabeth Greenburg has tapped into the zeitgeist-in a world of AI, data, and metrics, people are yearning for outer quiet so they can tap into their own inner guidance. Drawing on scientific research, personal anecdotes, and real-world applications, Everyday Intuition explores the powerful yet often overlooked capacity for intuitive thinking that we all possess and how to navigate our way towards fulfillment. This book is a gift." - Mira Ptacin, author of Poor Your Soul and The In-Betweens: The Spiritualists, Mediums, and Legends of Camp Etna
