Hello everyone and welcome to Connect to Center,
the podcast that explores howintuition shows up and is used
by different people to centertheir life.
Today we're interviewing BevDurwills-Brown from 3 Deep
Breathz.
Welcome, Bev.
Thanks, Michelle.
Thanks for having me on.
You're so welcome.
Let's start with some questionswhere we can learn more about
(00:23):
you.
Bev, how does your intuitionshow up in your life?
Great question.
Michelle, I think it's just athing that's there all the time.
It's just a feeling that I'velearned to tune into.
And how do you tune into it orhow do you know it's there?
Can you tease it out a bitmore?
Probably it's a learned thing.
It's something that I've putlots of time and energy into
(00:45):
learning.
It's something I felt I'vealways had and as we all do.
And I've put time into learningwhat that is and how to listen
to it and indeed to trust it.
And I will now tune into myintuition if I have a big
decision to make or if I have asituation like a sliding doors
moment that I'm not sure whichway to go.
(01:06):
I'll take a moment, stop, veryoften just put my hand on my
solar plexus and just under myribcage and listen to my
intuition.
Thanks, Bev.
I'm interested to know if it'slistening that is the main way
that your intuition expressesitself to you.
When we talk about intuition,the idea of the clairs often
comes into the discussion, whichare a range of intuitive
(01:29):
abilities.
Most of us are familiar withthe idea of clairvoyance, which
is clear seeing of events,people or places through mental
images or visions.
But there's other types ofclairs, like clairaudience, to
do with hearing, orclairsentience, to do with
feeling.
with taste or inner knowing.
So I was wondering how it showsup for you.
(01:51):
For me, it's a feeling.
And if I tune in, like I'vejust said, I can feel something
almost in my stomach.
I can feel if it's good or not.
But I also...
Intuitively, if I walk into aroom, I can feel energy.
I can feel if something's a bitoff.
I can feel if there's been anargument in the space.
I can feel if an area isn'tgreat and maybe we shouldn't be
(02:13):
there.
Equally, I can feel joy andvery often reduced to tears of
happiness or intense emotionjust on a feeling.
Does the feeling...
come in different parts of yourbody or is weight or light or
emotion or you dig into what afeeling is a bit more?
(02:34):
Yeah, it's probably a littlebit of all of that.
I would assert that everycircumstance is different.
So every moment is different.
So it can be an emotion.
I can feel intense joy oralmost sadness and sadness might
come as a heaviness.
Equally, sometimes I feeltearful for a reason and tears
can come through intense joy orAnd also experiencing, if I feel
(02:58):
there's a suffering in an area,I can sometimes tear up for
seemingly no reason, nothing infront of me, but I feel it.
I think it shows itself indifferent ways depending on the
circumstance.
Sometimes it feels like aphysical thing in my body or on
my body, and other times it'sfrom the inside.
I'll feel like a butterflyfeeling in my stomach or an
(03:19):
anxious, tight feeling in mystomach.
Wow, that's so different to howsome of that is for me.
And how did this evolvethroughout your life?
I would feel stuff and thenjust feel that I was the odd one
out.
I definitely never verbalizedit to people because I thought
it was weird.
At some stage, I made thedecision that these feelings
were weird.
And then I related to them likethey were weird for years.
And I just didn't really speakto them about them at all.
(03:42):
I think I was a littleembarrassed and I didn't come
from a background of anythinglike this.
I didn't feel like there wasanyone to talk to about it.
Yeah, I just kept it almostquiet.
The first time I'm aware oftalking about it was probably
when I was about 18 and I met afabulous woman called Louise
Hardy and she just upped up theconversation one day.
(04:02):
I suddenly thought, oh, this isa thing.
I'm not weird.
Other people have thesefeelings and these thoughts and
there's a thing called intuitionthat you can actually trust.
It was like a revelation to me.
And how do you use it now toenrich your life?
I use it all the time.
So now it's part of my toolkitof living life.
It's absolutely, I embrace itas part of who I am.
(04:25):
So if I have a, on aday-to-day, if I feel something,
I listen to it.
I don't second guess it.
For example, I might be drivingdown the road and I feel
there's something off.
I will take notice.
I'll either slow down.
Maybe if it's at night, I mightcome off that road and take
another road if there's anoption.
So I take actions to thefeelings now.
(04:45):
Or if I walk into a room andthere's something off, I'll feel
the room and then just addressit as soon as I can.
If it's appropriate, talking toit, find out what's going on,
really heighten my listening tolisten for what might have
happened or is there something Ineed to be aware of.
I'm very much more in tune withit and it's part of who I am.
And I also do a lot of pendulumwork.
(05:08):
I use my pendulum a lot.
So if there's major decisionsto be made in my life, For
business or life, I'll use mypendulum to tune in and just
really listen to what intuitionsays and what the energy is
advising.
And it may not be the be-alland end-all what the pendulum
says, but I definitely take itinto consideration.
(05:30):
Thanks, Bev.
It sounds like you've got itreally well integrated into your
life.
I'm really struck by the pointabout not second-guessing
yourself, about always trustingyour intuition.
I think many of us waste a lotof time by either spending a lot
of time on trying to make theright decision, on trying to
analyze the right factors orreally figure out what
(05:52):
information to trust, includinginformation coming from our
body.
So we can take up a lot of timein making the decision and then
still take up a lot of timeeven after the decision's made.
A great piece of advice that Iwas once given is if you want to
create more time in your lifeis once you've made a decision,
Let it go.
Don't keep revisiting it andwondering if you made the right
(06:13):
one because it's made.
And I've certainly always foundthat very useful.
Sometimes I worry about bigdecisions, but I've learnt that
the moment it's done, the momentI've finally actioned it in
some way, any anxiety I havearound it will very quickly
dissipate and I simply move on.
It's been fantastic hearingabout all your learnings and I'm
(06:36):
wondering what advice you'dgive to anyone else who wants to
go down this path.
I think the starting pointmight just be listening.
We throw it around inconversation in our society
like, oh, listen to my gut.
Oh, I should listen to my gut.
Start to think of what that isfor you.
What does listening to your gutfeel like?
I guess a starting point as I'mspeaking to you might be
(06:59):
starting with a meditation andif meditation feels too
mumbo-jumbo, simply sit on yourbedroom floor for five minutes
before you go to bed and just bequiet.
Be quiet and listen for whatcomes because something will
come and then listen to that.
I think there's a huge value,Michelle, for taking quiet time
(07:19):
and listening because intuitionis talking to us and We all live
very busy lives that are veryfull, and I think we often don't
hear when intuition is talking.
I saw a lovely saying recentlythat when we quiet our mind, it
enables the soul to comethrough.
Absolutely, yeah.
(07:43):
And lastly, where can listenersfind you and engage with your
fabulousness?
Well, thank you very much.
