About

'A beautiful invitation to reconnect with the web of life that flows within and between every one of us.' Kate Raworth, author of Doughnut Economics

What does it mean? How do you say it? Why does it relate to me?

InnSaei (pronounced 'in-sy-eh') is the Icelandic word for intuition. It means:

· the sea within (the flow of our unconscious mind)

· to see within (how we introspect)

· to see from the inside out (how we navigate the world).

InnSæi exists within all of us.

We live in a world where it's easy to feel lost, disconnected or without a purpose. Learning about InnSaei is the first step to reconnecting with yourself and the environment.

Hrund Gunnsteinsdóttir explains how aligning with the sea within will help you to make more informed decisions and welcome creativity and wonder back into your life; learning to see within will improve your self-awareness, empathy and tolerance; and seeing from the inside out will empower you to make change around you and live a more fulfilled life.
