"Some inner non-intellectual sensing"
This phrase, "inner non-intellectual sensing" is from a book by Carl Rogers, On Becoming a Person. Rogers was a humanistic psychologist, the direction in psychology that resonates strongly with me.
I'm a social scientist, and oftentimes it felt uncomfortable to talk about intuition or what "feels right" (or "feels wrong"). In the realm of philosophy, e.g., in Bhaskar's philosophy of metareality, it is possible to find comfort and come to terms with intuition rather than seeing it as something unscientific or irrational.
Listening to my intuition and my body has always been an important part of my being in the world. I have made many, if not all, of my decisions in my life based on various ideas feeling right to me. Some of those decisions were major, like moving countries. So this quote from Carl Rogers resonates with me: "I have learned that my total organismic sensing of a situation is more trustworthy than my intellect."
