【题目】 We all form first impressions when we use new products, go to new places,and meet new people.We sometimes call these impressions or feelings gut react and our intuition(直觉) or instinct causes them.Some people believe that intuition is very important and can help us live better lives.Shannon Healy is one such person.

Healy is a strong believer that all people have natural powers of intuition.In her book,she says that most people,however,don't pay enough attention to her "gut feelings".

Her new book,Use Your Intuition, is full of stories of people who used their intuition to find love and success.For example, a young woman made a quick decision between two job offers.She chose one by paying attention to her "gut feeling"that she would enjoy the work more, even though the pay was lower.I turned out to be a good choice.Each chapter of Healy's book has a specific focus, such as love,work, children, or health.The exercises in the book give people practice on how to use their intuition to have success in all these areas.

Sometimes Healy also teaches students about using the power of intuition in workshops where she lives in Jacksonville,Florida.Some people travel hundreds of miles to attend her workshops.Use your Intuition is already a bestseller!
