35 Powerful Intuitive Writing Prompts to Connect with Your Intuition
Why Intuitive Writing Works
Intuitive writing isn’t about having perfect grammar or crafting a beautiful sentence. It’s about letting your thoughts flow freely without any filters or concerns about how it “should” look. You let go of expectations and just allow yourself to write from a place of honesty and openness.
For me, the process of intuitive writing is like opening a channel to my higher self. I don’t overthink what I’m writing; I simply listen to what wants to come through. Sometimes, the words surprise me, offering insights or new perspectives that I hadn’t considered before. Intuitive writing is a way of quieting the noise and turning your attention inward to hear the wisdom that’s always been there.
