When a Game Becomes a Lesson for Listening to Your Intuition
Let me take you back to when I was 15 years old, sitting at a restaurant table with my adopted mom, her boyfriend, and his son. Little did I know, I was about to learn a lesson on listening to your intuition. We were playing a game called Sugar, Sugar, Salt. You know, those little white packets on the table? The idea was simple: guess which packet is salt, and hope you don’t end up with a mouthful of it.
Spoiler alert: I did.
But this isn’t just a story about a salty mistake. It’s a story about intuition, and how it speaks to us in ways we don’t always expect.
When Intuition Screams (and When It Whispers)
There were two packets left to choose from on the table. One of them was practically screaming at me. Loud, icky energy, like someone yelling in my face. The other felt quiet, calm, and subtle.
And here’s where I misunderstood my intuition.
I thought the loud one was my gut saying “Pick me!” But in reality, that screaming energy was a warning. The peaceful one? That was the sugar. That was the right choice.
“Your intuition doesn’t always shout. Sometimes, it’s the quietest voice in the room.”
But atlas, there I was pouring an entire packet of salt down my mouth. Can you think of a time you’ve done that, too? Maybe it wasn’t a packet of salt, but something that burned you all the same when you either didn’t listen to your intuition, or you chose against it.
What That Moment Taught Me About Listening to Your Intuition
That day, I learned something I’ve carried with me ever since. It’s that intuition is deeply personal. It doesn’t always show up the way we expect. For me, when something feels heavy, loud, or energetically off, it’s usually a “no”. When something feels light, peaceful, and grounded, it’s often a “yes”.
Your intuition might work differently. It’s shaped by your soul’s journey, your past lives, your energy field, and your unique lessons in this lifetime.
Intuition Is a Skill You Can Grow
At the time of the Sugar Sugar Salt incident, I was already taking energy healing classes and exploring metaphysics. But this silly little game reminded me that intuition isn’t just for the big moments, it’s in the everyday choices, too.
If you’re on a path of spiritual growth and want to deepen your connection to your inner knowing, I’d love to support you. Through Akashic Record readings, I help clients all over the world connect with their soul, spirit guides, and intuitive gifts.
“Your soul is always guiding you, it’s just waiting for you to listen.”
Ready to Listen to Your Intuition?
If this story resonated with you and you’re curious about your own intuitive gifts, I invite you to:
I share stories, spiritual tools, and upcoming offerings to help you feel seen, supported, and spiritually aligned.
So yes, I once ate a packet of salt. But I also gained a lifelong lesson about trusting my gut, and learning how to listen when it whispers instead of shouts.
And if you’re ever unsure which path to take, remember: the one that feels peaceful, grounded, and true to your soul is usually the one worth choosing.
Wishing you clarity, connection, and a whole lot of sweetness (no salt required).
Blessings,
Brittany
