The art of innsaei

Gunnsteinsdóttir, Hrund

£16.99

Innsaei (pronounced Inn-Sy-Eh) is an Icelandic word which, at its simplest level, means ‘intuition’. There are deeper layers of meaning which help to explain the philosophy around it: the sea within, to see within and to see from the inside out. ‘The sea within’ implies the dynamic movement of the world within, which cannot be put into boxes or silos, because then it ceases to flow. ‘To see within’ means to know yourself well enough to be able to put yourself into other people’s shoes and make connections that constantly regenerate you. And finally, ‘to see from the inside out’ implies a strong inner compass, that enables you to navigate and create your own path in the ever-changing ocean of life. This book follows a clear structure in which she explains each of these three strands and how they work together, offering the reader practical exercises such as grounding, gratitude, mindfulness and breathing.
