“Become a good noticer. Pay attention to the feelings, hunches, and intuitions that flood your life each day. If you do, you will see that premonitions are not rare, but a natural part of our lives.”
~ Larry Dossey
This is a week for standing up for yourself, for speaking your truth, for seeking fairness and justice for yourself.
So, this week I’m asking you to pay attention to your niggles.
You know, niggles. Those funny little feelings where something doesn’t sit right with you. Maybe it’s the way your partner talks to their mother, or about their previous girlfriend. Maybe it’s the way your boss puts you down and then laughs it off or praises you so that you’re unsure if you’re overreacting. Maybe it’s the way you think your friend is lying to you because their stories so often contradict each other. Or you haven’t heard back from someone who seemed so keen to catch up. Or something isn’t adding up about a situation or relationship and it is bothering you, even though you can talk yourself out of those feelings.
Niggles.
Niggles are our intuition raising a red flag for us. They show us where to be more aware, where to tread carefully, where to pay better attention.
This week already I’ve had a flood of emails to my inbox from people who are deep into relationships or situations that gave them plenty of niggles, but where they ignored them. Now things are really going wrong. Or they’re being treated less and less well. But there are high stakes now. Marriages, business partnerships, money involved, or children. Nothing has really changed from those first niggles, except that the person can finally name the issues that the niggles were warning them about.
Niggles exist to show you where a situation is in misalignment with your values, wellbeing and highest good.
If you’ve ignored those niggles up to now it’s not too late. This week you’re empowered to act in support of yourself.
If you have niggles tune in. Pay attention. Maybe it’s time to step back, reassess, get help or move in a new direction.
Life is too short to settle for second best.
Holding space for you to be all that you came here to be, Nicole ❤ xx

Thank you for this post. It is so very appropriate for me at the moment.
Much love to you xxx
i recently had this happen and i followed what my niggles were telling me to do. the result was very positive and they went away immediately.
Those inner niggles are ever present. Ignore them at our peril! Sometimes though you really don’t want to believe them and push them away. It’s hard to deal with the truth sometimes.
I always listen to those inner niggles or my gut instinct have done since I was in my 20’s
