Intuition has been defined as knowing without knowing how we know; a kind of instinctive knowing without benefit of actual evidence or factual information.
Due to Western culture’s emphasis on the left brain with its reliance on logic and fact, we are culturally conditioned not to trust our intuitive knowledge. Studies have shown, however, that scientists, medical personnel and successful business executives, among others, often rely heavily on intuition for problem solving and decision making. Jonas Salk, developer of the polio vaccine, observed, “The intuitive mind tells the thinking mind where to look next.”
Where does intuition come from? How can we improve our ability to connect with our intuitive mind? What are the many ways in which can draw on our intuition to benefit our lives?
Please join us as we discuss the many sources and applications of this vital gift.
What is IONS? The Institute of Noetic Sciences™founded in 1973 by Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell, is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit research, education, and membership organization whose mission is supporting individual and collective transformation through consciousness research, educational outreach, and engaging a global learning community in the realization of our human potential. “Noetic” comes from the Greek word nous, which means “intuitive mind” or “inner knowing.” IONS™ conducts, sponsors, and collaborates on leading-edge research into the potentials and powers of consciousness, exploring phenomena that do not necessarily fit conventional scientific models while maintaining a commitment to scientific rigor.
The Caritas Center sponsors one of a global network of self-organizing community groups that study and discuss the work of IONS.
