Intuition: Sustainable Ways of Knowing
Sharon Franquemont, Life Science Foundation

The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant.  We’ve created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.  Albert Einstein

Encouraging people to embrace their intuition as a sustainable, enriching way of knowing, Sharon Franquemont stated that working with your intuition implies a shift in identify.  This shift features moving from

1. Identity with knowledge as neutral to knowledge that is bound up with caring, love, and intimacy
2. Identifying yourself as a container of knowledge to discerner of knowledge
3. Identity as an individual to a field identity.
