Intuition is something that should be used as a power not as something which should be
ignored.
So, are you using your intuition as your power or are you suppressing it?
An INFJs dominant cognitive function is introverted Intuition.
And it is always on and working - observing and taking in information from absolutely
everything.
That makes them really thoughtful about the future which is something many other personality
types don’t understand.
But being an INFJ becomes a real issue when you start to ignore your intuition.
What does it feel like when you are ignoring what your intuition is telling you?
Today I am going to talk about 7 signs that you are suppressing your intuition.
Make sure to watch until the end of the video and let me know if you recognize any of these
signs that you are an INFJ suppressing your power of introverted intuition.
Let’s get into it.

Starting things off for us today is You feel butterflies in your gut.
Now wait, isn't having butterflies in your stomach a sign that you're in love or excited?
Yes, it is, but it can also be a warning indication of something else.
If you're in a scenario where you're unsure about a decision or can't figure out what
to do and then all of a sudden, you feel these sensations in your gut.
That could be a sign that you're going against your intuition.
You're probably wondering how your decisions can literally affect your gut.
Surprisingly, our stomach has a complete neurological system known as the enteric nervous system
which contains neurotransmitters.
So, when we do something that triggers our intuition and just doesn't seem right, these
neurotransmitters are activated to send you signals.
Neurotransmitters are the chemical messengers that travel from the gut to the brain and
cause that stomach-churning sensation.
It’s really pretty awesome that there is a built-in system that checks to see if you
are following your intuition.
Pay attention when this happens, because your intuition is literally trying to tell you
something!
Next up and number 6 is Your digestive system doesn’t work properly.
This indicator is also related to your gut, but it is not the same as feeling butterflies.
Feelings like nausea, queasiness, and a lack of appetite may also indicate that you are
suppressing your intuition.
In this situation, microorganisms perform the function of neurotransmitters.
Messages from your gut to your brain are transmitted by certain bacteria in our digestive system.
I'm not going to get into the biological intricacies because, to be honest, it can get pretty in
depth.
But, to cut a long story short, when you have a sensation that something isn't right and
you try to suppress and ignore it, the bacteria in your stomach become connected with the
concept that something awful might happen, and as a result, your digestive system can't
work properly.
It's incredible how these invisible bacteria function.
I mean, before you ever recognize how crucial your intuition is, these microorganisms sound
an alarm that warns you not to repress it.
As the saying goes, listen to your gut!
The number 5 sign you are suppressing your intuition is You feel changes in your energy
level.
This is one of the most obvious signals that you are going against your powerful intuition.
When you make a decision intuitively, it's either hell yes or hell no, right?
But what if you're not excited about your decision and your energy level is at an all-time
low for whatever you've decided?
It simply indicates that you ignored your intuition and made the wrong choice or decision.
Because an INFJs intuition is always, always right!
Do you feel energized to do something, and does it feel elevating and inspiring?
Or are you really exhausted or experiencing resistance?
All of these questions should be asked of yourself.
You'll be able to tell whether you're repressing or following your intuition by paying attention
to the answers.
Changes in energy levels might occasionally be accompanied by exhaustion.
For example, every time you visit a certain place, you are completely drained when you
leave.
This is usually caused by having a lot on your mind and your thoughts not being focused
because you are ignoring your powerful intuition.
Number 4 today is You feel changes in your heart rate.
Keep in mind, an elevated heart rate might also be caused by nervousness.
Most of the time, however, it is because you have neglected your instincts.
If you are hesitant about a decision or a choice and suddenly find that your pulse is
thumping harder than usual, it is a strong indication that you are going against your
intuition.
When an INFJs body receives intuitive indications that something isn't quite right in a situation,
their heart rate will rise and begin to notice tightness in their body.
A lot of INFjs think this is just normal for them.
However, this is not an INFJ personality trait.
This is an indication that you are repressing your intuition.
This happens when you combine ignoring your intuition and because you are an INFJ.

Starting our top 3 today is Your blood pressure increases.
Our bodies carry several warning signs that notify us when we are going against our instincts.
One of them is high blood pressure.
Having high blood pressure in settings when you don't feel at ease is nothing new.
Have you ever noticed that certain people have the ability to elevate your blood pressure?
How does that feel in your body?
Take note of what that feels like.
All of these questions are typically asked by doctors when a patient complains about
high blood pressure.
Unfortunately, people with high blood pressure frequently experience a great deal of anxiety,
discomfort, and a sense that they are not being supported by anyone.
It's as if they're fighting both themselves and the rest of the world for a little love
and attention.
Just remember everything I've said up to this point.
Will you be battling with yourself if you have a strong intuitive approach in every
element of your life?
Certainly not!
According to research, tactics such as conscious deep breathing, meditation, prayer, or anything
that engages and relaxes you activates your vagus nerve, which has been shown to reduce
blood pressure.
In the runner-up spot, today is You can never stay still.
What exactly is intuition?
Isn't intuition simply trusting your instincts?
Actually, it demands self-assurance and a thorough awareness of oneself.
If you are continuously switching and dashing from one thought to the next, from one task
to the next, this could be an indication that you aren't giving yourself enough time and
space to listen to yourself deeply.
Never staying still does not imply that you are always on the move.
It indicates that you are not steady in your life.
You're always doing something.
You are not at ease.
It becomes tough to protect your intuition without a moment of silence.
With so many distractions at our disposal, we need to make our lives a bit more peaceful,
our thoughts a little more steady, and our intuition a little stronger.
Spending 10 minutes in the morning contemplating your ideas is not a bad thing and it's something
I recommend to be more mindful and have a better grasp of what your intuition is telling
you.
The number 1 sign you are suppressing your intuition is You feel lost.
If you still don't appreciate the significance of intuition, it's possible that you don't
fully comprehend what intuition is.
If you are an intuitive person, you will very rarely feel lost.
Life happens to everyone, and there are periods in everyone's lives when they feel alone or
completely grounded.
This is very typical.
Life might be a little crazy at times.
But Those who are in touch with their intuition have an unbreakable strength that helps them
survive.
Intuition isn't just about obtaining a calmer state of mind; it can also bring practical
solutions to problems and assist you in developing a perspective to help you avoid being trapped
in feelings of confusion and emptiness.
Make sure you are paying attention to these signs when your intuition is quite literally
screaming at you.
Don’t ignore it.
It is telling you something for a reason.
