    My wife and I use a veto when we find something on the road that we don’t want to deal with. If we plan to stop somewhere and one of us doesn’t like it for instance you just say veto and we leave. No argument, no debate, no explanation, no recriminations. Any situation that makes one of us uncomfortable we just say veto and off we drive to find something better.

    I think nomadic people are good at connecting with their intuition. Materialistic desires tend to block our intuition, but nomadic people aren't very materialistic, so it's easier for them to hear the voice of their intuition. The same goes for selfishness. Most of them are not easily distracted by selfish thoughts, so they can remain connected with their intuition.

    Well done, “Professor Bob!” That was a wonderfully & and skillfully drawn picture of what we were taught in nursing school to call, “nursing instinct.” It’s what happens when you check on a patient and everything looks great and so you exit the room…only to stop dead in your tracks, whip around, go back into the patient’s room….just in time to catch them go into cardiac arrest! And you’re right, it’s something you can nurture and grow. Sadly, some people were taught (or chose) to shut themselves off from their intuition…usually to their detriment.

    Bob, you never cease to surprise me with your knowledge. Every day I watch your channel, and I always find something I need to know. An interview with a person (just like me) who isn't afraid to take that first step; or, someone who was fearful but needed to take that step. Usually, it's just one comment that someone makes that clarifies what I need to hear. Still, I am always amazed at how little I need to live a happy life. Blessings upon you and upon our tribe.

      Once I intended to stay at a rest stop for a much needed rest but I just knew not to and somehow the ability to be awake and alert came instantly. I drove away and I stayed elsewhere that night. I believe I was spared a bad experience. Wishing you safe travels.

    But you're right, our soul (conscious and subconscious) gives us warnings the we need to be aware of and respond accordingly .. Einstein was a Jewish Christian .. He has numerous amazing quotes that I love !!

    Years ago Gavin de Becker wrote a book called "The Gift of Fear". Excellent read, he talks about the ability of every person to recognize that gift. Over the years, women in particular were programed to disregard that intuition which in some instances got them into dire consequences.
    I've viewed your videos for that last couple of years now and have found them to be very informative. Thank you so much for the information you have put forth to help those who have chosen nomadic life. I haven't ventured that road just yet but I'm really considering it with all that is happening.

    Wow! I look forward to the next video also. My own experience is that the more I listen to what I call "the little voice or my guardian angel or the voice of my Creator" ... the more I hear it. And not only safety issues, but all kinds of "decisions" from small seemingly inconsequential things to the big stuff. I grew up with a lot of "shoulds" from family and friends. I imagine most nomads followed intuition to find the way to the best life for them. And I will say that the inner voice never says that I "should" do something. I hear it more as suggestion. The science was amazing - thank you for sharing all that you did.

They, in turn, radiate happiness outward to others. All of us possess the power of intuition. What ultimately decides our fate is whether or not we can make full use of it.

    I used to believe it was hooey fooey too. Until 9/11 hit and I woke up that morning knowing something was wrong. When I finally turned on the TV I saw what it was. But it puzzles me how those senses can pick up on something so far away with absolutely no connection that we know of.
    I get that same feeling in other situations. And when I push it off thinking it's hooey fooey again, I find out why yet again.
    I can only assume scientifically that it is some sense of how other people are thinking around us. And in a group it becomes more powerful.

    Very nice, sometimes we are taught that following our intuition is not logical. But that is ok, sometimes we figure out the reason later why we felt the "sketchy vibe" and glad we didnt ignore it. The brain takes in so much information and our senses arent perfect. Maybe we saw something in our peripheral vision or another lapse. Its so important to not ignore your feelings.
