You may not feel comfortable trusting others today and could keep information to yourself as a means of self-protection. Perhaps there have been people in your life who have betrayed your trust, and you might feel that by being cautious they will not have the power to hurt you. Learning to trust your instincts today may be the best way to overcome your fear of confiding in other people. As you interact with others, you can take a deep breath and quietly ask yourself if this person is someone you can entrust with your feelings or other information. Your body may give you a signal, such as tightness in your abdomen or a sense of openness, which can tell you what you should do. Trusting your own intuition might help you decide when to confide in others.

Understanding how to trust ourselves is the best way to place our trust in others. Keeping things to ourselves is not always the best form of protection since it might cause other people to want to dig deeper into our thoughts and feelings, which will create an even greater violation of our trust. When something feels amiss, however, our bodies warn us to be careful. We know on an intuitive level when we shouldn't trust someone. This form of awareness serves as a guide to choose the most appropriate course of action, and we learn how to open ourselves up when it feels right. By letting your intuition help you today, you will increase your trust in yourself and others.
