00:01:12.364 --> 00:01:17.014 And with this intuitive ability, and I'll share a bit more in a sec, 00:01:17.144 --> 00:01:20.764 you know, we've been able to tap into the answers that lie within us. 00:01:21.304 --> 00:01:25.044 We've been able to connect to the body's intelligence and understand 00:01:25.554 --> 00:01:29.034 what it needs, why it's sick, what it will need to recover. 00:01:29.434 --> 00:01:32.664 We've been able to tap into, um, business as well. 00:01:33.074 --> 00:01:36.684 And we've been able to tap into animals and connect to the intelligence 00:01:36.684 --> 00:01:37.994 and consciousness of animals. 00:01:38.284 --> 00:01:40.694 So our intuitive abilities is really... 00:01:41.119 --> 00:01:47.959 Um, about going from the thinking mind into using more of our brain. 00:01:48.864 --> 00:01:54.814 And actually perceiving energy and feeling that energy for information. 00:01:54.904 --> 00:01:56.644 All energy is information. 00:01:57.144 --> 00:02:02.564 We as people are beaming out energy and everything in this 00:02:02.564 --> 00:02:03.884 universe is beaming out energy. 00:02:03.884 --> 00:02:08.434 And when we become sensitive enough, we can feel that energy and we can feel 00:02:08.434 --> 00:02:10.404 it as knowledge, as wisdom, as truth. 00:02:10.754 --> 00:02:13.344 It's kind of like Anke, you know, you walk into a house, you walk 00:02:13.344 --> 00:02:16.254 into somebody's house and you can feel, you know, sometimes you 00:02:16.254 --> 00:02:18.104 feel, is there really an argument? 00:02:18.854 --> 00:02:21.244 You know, has there been something good happen or bad happen? 00:02:21.654 --> 00:02:25.984 So that's how intuitive sensitivities, we're feeling energy. 00:02:26.839 --> 00:02:30.629 You know, you could sit in the car with your spouse, you can feel if they're 00:02:30.639 --> 00:02:32.729 angry at you or if something's gone wrong. 00:02:32.949 --> 00:02:36.779 Well, that's really the very beginning of heightened intuition 00:02:36.779 --> 00:02:38.159 or heightened sensitivity. 00:02:38.649 --> 00:02:42.819 And we've just taken it to the point where we can go beyond, is it a good 00:02:42.819 --> 00:02:44.729 mood or a bad mood or an argument? 00:02:45.014 --> 00:02:49.434 We can actually go in to feel what's the body saying, what's the mind 00:02:49.434 --> 00:02:52.484 saying, what's in the subconscious mind and, and what's an animal saying. 00:02:52.484 --> 00:02:55.044 So using it for communicating or talking to animals. 00:02:55.414 --> 00:02:56.164 So that's a 00:02:56.354 --> 00:02:57.314 Anke: little bit about what we've been doing. 00:02:58.914 --> 00:03:00.704 I mean, that's a whole other topic. 00:03:00.704 --> 00:03:04.374 Like I think I can kind of, yeah, I think I want you back for a lot more 00:03:04.374 --> 00:03:13.589 things, but, but, In your experience, what stops people from, I guess, 00:03:13.609 --> 00:03:15.249 because we all have it, right? 00:03:15.569 --> 00:03:19.589 But most of the time I feel like we kind of feel the nudge, but then we don't trust 00:03:19.589 --> 00:03:23.619 it because the logical mind can't catch up and you kind of can't make sense of it. 00:03:23.619 --> 00:03:24.539 So you don't trust it. 00:03:24.859 --> 00:03:28.889 Is that like, what's the biggest thing that stops people from really... 00:03:28.939 --> 00:03:29.879 Different people 00:03:29.879 --> 00:03:31.469 Daniel: have different people. 00:03:31.589 --> 00:03:33.719 Yeah, different people have different blockages. 00:03:34.539 --> 00:03:36.629 I'll share a few that we've encountered. 00:03:37.659 --> 00:03:43.269 Some of them are religious, so kids that are brought up in a religious environment 00:03:43.749 --> 00:03:49.329 and they get told off as kids, don't you believe in spirits or ghosts or intuition 00:03:49.329 --> 00:03:53.919 or any of that stuff, you know, that's the work of, you know, something nasty. 00:03:54.129 --> 00:03:57.999 So children have this fear in them and whenever they feel the intuitive 00:03:57.999 --> 00:04:02.209 messages or visions or feelings, um, they immediately shut it down. 00:04:04.929 --> 00:04:08.799 Another blockage that we find is as children, because as children 00:04:08.799 --> 00:04:11.919 are the most sensitive, so this is where that experience comes from. 00:04:12.649 --> 00:04:18.559 Um, some children have been so open when they were young and they may have had 00:04:18.629 --> 00:04:24.639 a scary experience and they realise, I don't want to see that, um, or they've 00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:30.299 shared a message, an intuitive message with a parent or an adult and the adult's 00:04:30.299 --> 00:04:35.189 just gone slam, don't you tell me that kind of message, how dare you say that, 00:04:35.569 --> 00:04:36.949 because they can be quite confronting. 00:04:37.409 --> 00:04:39.389 So there are a couple of examples. 00:04:39.869 --> 00:04:46.789 Um, other blockages are, you know, this whole orientation to, if it's not 00:04:46.799 --> 00:04:53.319 my mind, if it's not science, if it's not the physical, then it's not real. 00:04:53.799 --> 00:04:57.369 So the mind and society and the belief systems that we've 00:04:57.369 --> 00:05:00.039 inherited over generation has pulled a bit of a trick on us. 00:05:00.509 --> 00:05:03.529 It's tricked us to believe that what's in the mind is real. 00:05:04.284 --> 00:05:05.974 And what's in intuition isn't. 00:05:06.424 --> 00:05:08.994 But it's actually, ironically, the complete opposite. 00:05:09.004 --> 00:05:13.044 What's in the mind isn't real, because it's made up of beliefs 00:05:13.044 --> 00:05:14.624 and thoughts and they're not real. 00:05:14.964 --> 00:05:18.344 They don't have the same substances, whereas the intuition is coming from a 00:05:18.344 --> 00:05:22.184 higher space, a higher consciousness, um, that has wisdom and truth. 00:05:22.194 --> 00:05:25.704 And it's, it's actually coming from the very intelligence of the universe, 00:05:25.704 --> 00:05:29.584 where mother nature and our life force and creation has come from. 00:05:29.594 --> 00:05:29.894 So. 00:05:30.384 --> 00:05:32.244 You know, there are some of the big blockages there. 00:05:33.104 --> 00:05:33.414 Not 00:05:33.414 --> 00:05:33.614 Anke: that. 00:05:33.944 --> 00:05:39.704 So with animals in particular, I mean, it kind of like, it feels like, yeah, it 00:05:39.704 --> 00:05:41.874 feels more than natural language, right? 00:05:41.894 --> 00:05:44.824 To sort of communicate with animals because like they 00:05:44.824 --> 00:05:46.514 don't speak English or German. 00:05:46.534 --> 00:05:48.424 We don't really speak dog, you know? 00:05:48.424 --> 00:05:51.144 So I think on that energetic level, because that's the thing, like 00:05:51.144 --> 00:05:54.254 they always, people always say, Oh, you can, you know, a dog can feel 00:05:54.264 --> 00:05:56.504 when you're, when you're scared. 00:05:57.074 --> 00:06:02.194 Yeah, they can, you know, and there's a, there's um, uh, James French in the UK. 00:06:02.194 --> 00:06:04.124 He has the trust technique and he goes, well, that also 00:06:04.154 --> 00:06:05.194 works the other way around. 00:06:05.634 --> 00:06:08.054 If you're calm and peaceful, your dog will pick up on it. 00:06:08.064 --> 00:06:13.414 So it's like, how do you work with, or how do you, I'm also 00:06:13.414 --> 00:06:14.954 curious how you teach that stuff. 00:06:14.954 --> 00:06:15.424 Like how do 00:06:15.424 --> 00:06:16.774 Daniel: you get somebody to relax? 00:06:16.814 --> 00:06:21.094 I'll start with your first comment, which is yeah, animals, um, 00:06:21.134 --> 00:06:25.064 they're not bogged down with belief systems and societal conditioning. 00:06:25.384 --> 00:06:29.744 They're just natural feeling beings and they can feel our 00:06:29.784 --> 00:06:32.564 energy, our thoughts, our stresses. 00:06:32.564 --> 00:06:36.764 They take on a lot of our stresses and that's the natural way. 00:06:36.764 --> 00:06:40.944 I mean, if you've ever, you know, natural horsemanship, if you're familiar with 00:06:40.944 --> 00:06:45.519 that is where people are riding horses based on how they're thinking, intending 00:06:45.879 --> 00:06:49.919 and all of that and horses feel that and that to me is just remarkable. 00:06:50.209 --> 00:06:51.929 But it shows what's possible. 00:06:52.289 --> 00:06:54.319 Dogs are the same, cats are the same. 00:06:54.329 --> 00:06:58.399 We all know they get nervous if there's spirits or any weird energies around. 00:06:59.009 --> 00:07:02.999 Um, so it is the natural way for us to communicate because 00:07:02.999 --> 00:07:05.219 an animal is, is conscious. 00:07:05.544 --> 00:07:09.164 And consciousness is an energy, a frequency, and they beam that out. 00:07:09.574 --> 00:07:12.904 And when we're sensitive enough and open enough, we can feel and 00:07:12.904 --> 00:07:15.344 perceive what their intentions. 00:07:15.724 --> 00:07:19.424 So this, this language of thoughts or intentions and feelings. 00:07:19.849 --> 00:07:21.269 That's the language of the universe. 00:07:21.269 --> 00:07:25.579 It's the language of soul, spirit, um, and it's how, um, life 00:07:25.579 --> 00:07:27.989 forms all over, uh, communicate. 00:07:28.089 --> 00:07:30.949 Human beings are a bit slow on that one because we're very in the 00:07:30.949 --> 00:07:35.039 mind and the mind makes it nearly impossible to feel that kind of energy. 00:07:36.314 --> 00:07:37.114 So 00:07:37.214 --> 00:07:42.384 Anke: if you have a dog in front of you, you know, like, so how do you get started? 00:07:42.384 --> 00:07:43.264 Like, how does that 00:07:43.264 --> 00:07:43.604 Daniel: work? 00:07:44.514 --> 00:07:44.854 Okay. 00:07:44.854 --> 00:07:48.534 So one of the things that we teach in, in our courses at Intuition 00:07:48.534 --> 00:07:51.764 Wisdom is you have to still the mind. 00:07:52.044 --> 00:07:56.624 If you've got a very active mind and it's full of chatter, that's a much louder 00:07:56.624 --> 00:07:59.674 noise or frequency than that of intuition. 00:07:59.684 --> 00:08:03.704 Intuition is quite subtle, but we haven't really been trained, 00:08:03.714 --> 00:08:04.424 you know, when we're kids. 00:08:05.129 --> 00:08:06.919 We're always listening for the loudest thing. 00:08:06.919 --> 00:08:08.019 Mom and dad's yelling. 00:08:08.019 --> 00:08:09.179 The teachers are yelling. 00:08:09.199 --> 00:08:11.199 We're trained for loud, right? 00:08:11.849 --> 00:08:13.499 So, and that drowns out intuition. 00:08:13.499 --> 00:08:18.909 So we teach people how to immediately get themselves in a nice, clear mind space, an 00:08:18.919 --> 00:08:20.949 ego, what we call it, an ego free space. 00:08:21.439 --> 00:08:26.639 And then you start opening yourself up and you're relaxing into it and you start, the 00:08:26.639 --> 00:08:32.329 next phase is really teaching people how to trust A feeling, a message, you know, 00:08:32.429 --> 00:08:36.689 because we're not, you know, we, we kind of get these feelings, we dismiss them. 00:08:36.909 --> 00:08:37.619 That's not real. 00:08:37.619 --> 00:08:39.269 That's not loud like the mind. 00:08:39.629 --> 00:08:42.349 So there's, there's, there's a process that we take people through. 00:08:42.349 --> 00:08:45.439 It's very simple and it starts with the quiet mind. 00:08:45.439 --> 00:08:49.049 It starts with the trusting and over time, the more you trust these 00:08:49.049 --> 00:08:53.889 messages, these feelings, then it gets stronger and you trust them 00:08:53.889 --> 00:08:55.099 or it gets stronger and stronger. 00:08:55.579 --> 00:08:59.219 So if I'm sort, if I'm wanting to connect to an animal. 00:08:59.724 --> 00:09:03.614 I have a lot of self belief because I've been teaching it for so 00:09:03.774 --> 00:09:06.424 long, so I trust that I can do it. 00:09:06.774 --> 00:09:08.874 And that's one of the things that gets taught is. 00:09:09.339 --> 00:09:13.029 Well, one of the key ingredients with intuition is you have to have self belief. 00:09:13.039 --> 00:09:14.089 You have to trust. 00:09:14.089 --> 00:09:16.249 You have to be able to believe that you can do it. 00:09:16.509 --> 00:09:20.879 So I, I, after all these years, I can just go into that space. 00:09:20.889 --> 00:09:26.079 And once I'm in that space, um, I'm starting to feel What this 00:09:26.079 --> 00:09:28.199 animal is trying to say or not say. 00:09:28.199 --> 00:09:30.129 So I'm connecting with that. 00:09:30.129 --> 00:09:31.129 I do that with people. 00:09:31.129 --> 00:09:31.989 I do that with animals. 00:09:31.989 --> 00:09:33.249 I do that with all kinds of things. 00:09:33.619 --> 00:09:36.749 And that, that's a bit of how I would do it, but we can, we can do it. 00:09:36.749 --> 00:09:39.889 If you've got your dog handy and you want to have a bit of a play. 00:09:40.469 --> 00:09:40.969 Anke: What do you mean? 00:09:41.879 --> 00:09:44.629 He's just sort of, where is he now? 00:09:44.739 --> 00:09:44.879 Hang on. 00:09:45.089 --> 00:09:45.739 Is he somewhere? 00:09:49.429 --> 00:09:50.269 Oh, he's right down here. 00:09:50.269 --> 00:09:54.189 I was looking for him because he was over here for a second ago. 00:09:54.499 --> 00:09:54.989 And he's. 00:10:01.299 --> 00:10:01.849 Can you hear him 00:10:01.859 --> 00:10:02.319 Daniel: growl?
