"Often, you have to rely on intuition." – Bill Gates
Being able to trust your intuition is a great way to raise self-esteem and lower stress. But we are not usually given any chance to constructively exercise our intuition. In this high-tech age, intution seems rather old fashioned. Although intuition isn’t 100% trustworthy, neither are science or high tech gadgets. Here are some games to improve your intuition in a fun and non-threatening way.
Roll The Dice
This is one of the best and easiest games to improve your intuition. Sadly, I didn’t come up with this game. I got this watching a series on the The Travel Channel many years ago called The Diceman, which in turn was based on a 1971 novel called The Dice Man. All of the decisions about where to travel, where to stay and what to do while there was made by the roll of one six-sided dice. (Yes, I know technically the singular of "dice" is "die", but let’s avoid any mention of fatality, shall we?)
Determine what each number is going to represent — of you don’t have enough time to make 6 separate choices, make it only two and have even numbers mean one thing and odds another. I like to do this in restaurants and I can’t make up my mind, or in deciding what book I should read next. I let the dice decide. Use the dice for any small decision.
This game does help you to trust whatever life throws at you. It makes the next games to improve your intuition easier.
Who’s That On The Phone?
Guess who is on the phone at the moment you hear the phone ring (or whatever noise it makes). You’ll be surprised how often you are right.
What Is The Next Song?
This game to improve your intuition is much the same as above, but this time you have to guess which is the next song to be played on a radio station. Personally, I think playing this game while listening to a Top 40 station is cheating. I think it works best on a classical music station. But you can use whatever station you want. If you don’t listen to the radio all that much, then try to guess what the next episode of your favorite syndicated TV show is going to be without looking at any TV guides.
Predict The Magic 8 Ball
One of the games to improve your intuition that I was taught years ago was to guess "heads" or "tails" before flipping a coin and logging the results. However, I got bored with that game really fast. So I did the same thing with a Magic 8 Ball. If you don’t have a Magic 8 Ball, then you can use a virtual one.
Have fun!

Write a Comment»Hai,
I’m intrigued with your games!
I would say that I have an excellent intuition that’s totally honed by doing healing extensively on others and myself also. I do at least a couple of Reiki healing treatments daily, which strengthens my intuition, or these days I call it ‘knowing’.
It never occured to me to do games to strengthen my intuition. With the dice (my connotation is ’slicing up the totality of options’, btw) I know that I can influence the outcome of the dice with my mind. There’s no question about it. II also have used dices, and coins for that matter, as pendulums.
I’m going to toy with your games..
Namaste,

ps I’m going to for sure include your article in this round up!
Wow. Thank you very much, Astrid. I’m racking my brains trying to remember where I got the inspiration for some of these games so they can get the proper credit. I think author Patricia Telesco came up with the “guess who is on the phone” game. We use intuition for nearly all areas in life, so I hope games like these will make us more friendly with our instinct.
