Knowing which race to sign up for, what coach to work with, honestly, any decision in life never needs to be the paralyzing process of deliberation that it is for many. 

As we wake up and flex our muscle to be present in life, we wake up to the intuitive voice that always knows the correct answer for us. It has a different tone than what we’re used to; it’s more subtle and never begs for recognition. It is unlike the whirlpool of thoughts that vie for our attention and confuse the daylights out of us. 

A skill attained on the Awake Athlete path is the discernment between intuition and mind-stuff. In this episode, I share experiences from Ironman Lake Placid, how I got there and what I learned from following my intuition. I also talk about the mind virus of doubt and share techniques to develop your intuitive voice during training and in your meditation practice.
