10 Invitations to the Intuitive Life

Book Description
We experience intuition as an instinctive action, a flash of inspiration, a moment when we feel one with the world. Intuition tells us what to do: how to make that difficult decision or achieve a creative breakthrough-and one has been teaching or writing about the subject longer than Sharon Franquemont.

From the Author
You Already Know What To Do is designed to help you enhance your InQ-your intuitive intelligence. It is a full-spectrum book on intuition covering everything from personal development, e.g. the acquisition of inner silence, development of more joy, and the creation of intuitive time-space mastery, to deeper topics such as the purpose of your life, the soul mate process, collaborative intuition in groups, and your capacity to tap into a Big Picture view of your life.

Reviews:

Gave me the confidence to hone and follow my instincts.

Reviewer: A reader from Gainvesville, Fl      September 29, 1999

A textbook of techniques to follow for those who recognize their own intuitive qualities and wish to heighten them or for those who question the existence of intuition in others and themselves. Examples abound of those who have followed the directions of their souls after having become accomplished following Ms. Franquemonts course. One recognizes why we respond in different ways to the world around us and the centers within ourselves, how our brain dominance impacts on our choices and decisionmaking and problem solving. Intuition is described as a tool which we have failed to utilize. Having acquired the skills to do so we can redirect our lives towards their real and genuine purpose with the resulting joy we deserve.

Good content but poorly edited and hard on the eyes.

Reviewer: A reader from New Haven, CT      September 18, 1999

This is a thoughtful book with lots of useful information on intuition. The problem is that the print is so tiny, and I, being over 50 y.o., get eye strain trying to read it without a magnifying lens. There are also many typos, misspellings, misplaced commas, incomplete sentences, wrong grammar, etc., that it reads more like an unedited first draft than a finished product. The material is worthwhile but I wish it could be presented in a less physically painful format. Clearly, the publisher did not "already know what to do" with this text. If it were more readable, I would have given it 4 or 5 stars.

A True gem in a world of hype and flash

Sharon Franquemont's book is a treasure trove of information on developing our intuitive abilities and learning to trust our inner voices. This book is unique in being at once elegant in its simplicity and very though provoking. Nobody is lending this around because everyone wants to keep it nearby. A truly wonderful book.

A truly useful and engaging SELF help book!

Reviewer: Marilee from Southern California      July 4, 1999

This book is much more than a series of eloquently phrased anecdotes or philosophies. It goes beyond other books in that it provides specific exercises (or invitations) that help the reader recognize and connect with the intuition they already possess. I have been working with it for several weeks now, and I smile (and sometimes cry) at the surprising, almost poetic results. The "Image Vocabulary" that Ms. Franquemont has you build for yourself may seem like sport at first, but you'll be startled by the almost magical messages your intuition can bring you with these images. I'm a very pragmatic, logical person who approached this book with a sincere desire to know and a fear of being conned: Yet, I've learned and experienced so much from within myself as a result, that I'm happy to give "You Already Know What To Do" a big thumbs up! My thanks to all who made this book possible.
