Editorial Reviews

Review

"This is a hands-on workbook...which will yield tangible results in developing your own intuitive ability. It would be hard to imagine a more thorough, cleanly structured, and encouraging book on the subject." -- The Bodhi Tree Book Review

"There's never been a book like The Intuitive Way! Comprehensive, easy, and entertaining, [Peirce's] no-nonsense approach inspires and instructs as no previous book on intuitive development has ever done. Bravo!" -- Hal Zina Bennett, PhD, author of Write from the Heart and The Lens of Perception

"The Intuitive Way fills a crucial gap in the training of most business people. What Steven Covey did for principle-centered behavior, Penney Peirce does for intuition. Here is a practical guide for using the power and clarity of intuition in the overly analytical workplace." -- William Bardallis, Management Consultant, Deloitte & Touche, Denver, CO --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

More About the Author

Penney Peirce is a gifted intuitive empath and visionary, and one of the pioneers in the intuition development movement. She is a popular author, lecturer, and trainer specializing in intuition and sensitivity development, "skillful perception," and dreamwork. She has worked throughout the US, Japan, South Africa, South America, and Europe since 1977 as a coach to business executives, coaches, psychologists, scientists, other trainers, and those on a spiritual path; she has counseled tens of thousands of individuals worldwide about life and business direction, and the fulfillment of destiny.

Penney has been involved with The Center for Applied Intuition, The Institute for the Study of Conscious Evolution, Coach University, Coaches Training Institute in Europe, The Arlington Institute (futurists), and The Kaiser Institute, which trains hospital CEO's in the development of intuitive skills. Penney has led visionquest tours to Peru, Japan, Egypt, and the American Southwest; hosted a TV talk show; presented keynotes, lectures, and workshops at colleges and conferences internationally; and appeared on radio and television interview shows internationally.

She is the author of FREQUENCY: THE POWER OF PERSONAL VIBRATION (2009), THE INTUITIVE WAY: THE DEFINITIVE GUIDE TO INCREASING YOUR AWARENESS (Beyond Words 1997; 2nd edition Council Oak Books 2005; 3rd edition Simon & Schuster 2009), DREAM DICTIONARY FOR DUMMIES (Wiley 2008), DREAMS FOR DUMMIES (Wiley 2000), and THE PRESENT MOMENT: A DAYBOOK OF CLARITY OF INTUITION (McGraw Hill 2000). She is featured in various other books, including: BREAKING THROUGH: GETTING PAST THE STUCK POINTS by Barbara Stanny, RETURN OF THE REVOLUTIONARIES by Walter Semkiw, MD, THE PURPOSE OF YOUR LIFE and WHEN LIFE CHANGES, OR YOU WISH IT WOULD by Carol Adrienne, THE CELESTINE PROPHECY and TENTH INSIGHT Experiential Guides, by Adrienne and James Redfield, and INTUITING THE FUTURE and OPENING THE INNER EYE by Dr. William Kautz.

Peirce's work is open-minded, practical, and sophisticated, synthesizing diverse cultural and spiritual world views with many years' experience in business as a corporate art director with such companies as Atlantic Richfield and American Hospital Supply Corporation. She is extraordinarily attuned to the intricacies of the mind and the dimensions of human awareness, blending a deep understanding of natural laws with a designer's skill in structural patterning. She is known for her ability to present complex ideas in a common sense, easy-to-understand way.

Penney emphasizes the practical aspects of intuitive development, helping people apply "direct knowing" to increase natural efficiency and their enjoyment and participation level in life. Her work assists people and organizations in uncovering life purpose and action plan, understanding and easing transitions, alleviating burnout, and finding accurate answers to pressing questions. She believes that life functions according to innate natural principles, and when we live in alignment with these truths, things work smoothly and effectively.

Penney was educated at the University of Cincinnati, the New School for Social Research, Columbia, and California Institute of the Arts. She makes her home near San Francisco. Her websites are www.penneypeirce.com and www.thefrequencybook.com.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent guide to finding your inner wisdom., August 17, 2004
By 
Ruth Henriquez Lyon (Duluth, Minnesota USA) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Ms. Peirce has written a thoughtful and well-organized guide to developing our relationship with the intuitive mind. Her premise is that each person has an intuitive faculty, which is our birthright as human beings. However, some people are more in touch with this faculty than others. Thus her strategy is to show us what blocks intuition, then how to work to unblock it. The exercises she provides to help us do this take up a large part of the book. In that sense, it is more of a workbook than just a book to read.

Part 1, entitled "Creating a Clear Lens," walks the reader through a series of exercises to clean out habits of thought, fears, and unhelpful beliefs which most of us carry around until we do our interior housekeeping. Many exercises resemble the work that so many people do in therapy, that is, uncovering painful issues from the past and clearing them out. This clearing opens up the channel from the "Big Mind," that is, the intuitive mind, so that we can receive guidance.

In Part 2, "Accessing Subtle Information," the focus turns to specific exercises for developing more sensitive perception and awareness. You will find here an emphasis on using your body awareness to tap into your intuitive mind. This makes perfect sense, as being grounded in the physical realm gives us a stable base from which to extend outward into the unknown.

Finally, in Part 3, "Making Intuition Useful," Ms. Peirce leads us through exercises on applying intuition to everyday life. She includes very good information on dream work, working with the creative process, self-healing, and accessing super-conscious guidance, among other topics.

This is really a lovely book. It is down-to-earth and practical, but also leads the reader gently into the spiritual realm. Ms. Peirce does not promote using ESP or telepathy in order to control the future, manipulate others, or otherwise get one's way in life. Rather, she encourages us to open up to a higher consciousness, and live our lives by creating in tandem with this consciousness. Through this work we become more at peace, more loving, more creative, and just plain happier.

5.0 out of 5 stars The most practical guide on intuition you can find, November 8, 2005
This review is from: Intuitive Way: The Definitive Guide to Increasing Your Awareness (Paperback)
Penney Peirce is a workshop leader and creative consultant and her book "The Intuitive Way" is one of the most practical to choose from on the market. It is organized like a 10-week course and is packed with reflections and exercises. After having it read once, I had success just picking up a chapter again and doing a few exercises. The exercises are fun and inspiring. It's a book you keep and go back to for that reason.

She starts by what she calls "The cleaning of the lens of perception" which is about tuning to your own intuition and preparing to open up to it. The second part of the book is devoted to using many tools of intuitive development to recognize and then interpret the messages of intuition. She gives us a good chapter on body-based intuition. The last part of the book focuses on day-to-day messages of intuition such as dreams and how to regularly follow your insights.

Good reads going with this most hands-on guide would be Julia Cameron's books, Natalie Goldberg's books and Ray Bradbury's "The Zen of Writing" (for those into writing) and Hal Zina Bennett's.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun to read and inspiring, March 5, 2002
By A Customer
This very readable book is packed with encouragement and inspiration for those who want to learn how to tune into their own intuitive wisdom. I led a 13-week class based on the book, and every one of my ten students felt it raised their awareness and abilities. Some of them have told me that they periodically review the book for fresh inspiration and guidance. There are certain sections I, myself, like to review when I don't understand why something is happening to me. The book helps me reframe how I'm seeing things -- an invaluable ability!
