And so your brain is going to naturally apply a deeper meaning to things that sometimes is just fear. Sometimes it's just catastrophic thinking. Sometimes it's just worry. And we confuse those sensations for an intuitive thought. Here are some of the other reasons that we tend to get them confused. I think to start off with, they both often occur in response to uncertain situations.

And so with both intuition and anxiety, they often are going to come up when there is some kind of unknown situation.

and that's something we never enjoy as humans and because in that situation we're already stressed it can be hard to tell the difference they can both often feel a little bit irrational like i don't know why i feel this way i just do in terms of anxiety the reason you just feel this way is because your mind is i don't know just on high alert and dysregulated in terms of how you're

In terms of intuition, sometimes it's because you're just seeing something that your brain isn't consciously knowing is there. They also both originate from within us, even if it's different corners of the mind. If anxiety was all situation-based or was just what someone else had to say, it would be very easy to discredit it.

But because both of them, intuition and anxiety, are coming through some of the same channels, they can get kind of confused. They also, like I said, elicit some of the same physical sensations, specifically that gut signal or sensation. For anxiety, that can feel like nausea. Sometimes that feels the same as a gut instinct, so it's easily confused. They both also feel important to listen to.

So as much as we kind of hate an anxious feeling, it is an important feeling and it's very hard for our brain to ignore it. The same with intuition. It's there, they're loud and often they are directed towards something that feels emotionally salient to us. We're not going to feel intuitive or anxious about what bag to take to the gym or what pen to use.

We're going to feel anxious and intuitive about very profound big things like finances, relationships, life choices. So they sit in the same ecosystem. And finally, they're both trying to guide us to make a certain decision. Intuition wants us to make a good decision. Anxiety wants us to make the decision that keeps us safe.

Either way, they're both working on our brain to kind of give it the best argument as to what path to take. We've talked about how they're similar. How do they differ? This is the real thing we want to know.
