Trust Your Gut: How to Spot a Liar Before the Truth Comes Out

Have you ever ignored that uneasy feeling in your stomach, only to discover later that someone wasn’t being honest with you?
It’s frustrating, but it’s also proof of something powerful — your intuition works. And when it comes to spotting a liar, it can be your most accurate tool.

Why Your Gut Knows First

Before your mind has time to rationalize, justify, or explain things away, your body is already reading subtle cues.
It’s noticing changes in tone, micro-expressions, small inconsistencies in the story. These cues get stored in your subconscious, triggering that little voice inside that says “something isn’t right here.”

In a world that often tells us to ignore feelings and focus on “facts,” we’ve trained ourselves to silence that voice. But facts can be manipulated. Energy can’t.

Common Signs of Dishonesty Your Body Picks Up On

While intuition is your first line of defense, there are patterns your conscious mind can learn to recognize too:

  1. Micro-pauses before answering – Even a fraction of a second can be a sign their brain is scrambling to create a believable response.

  2. Shifting or avoiding eye contact – Not always guilt, but often a subconscious attempt to create distance.

  3. Inconsistent details – Each retelling changes slightly, often adding or removing details to “tighten” the story.

  4. Tone or breathing changes – Stress affects the voice and breathing patterns.

  5. Mismatch between words and body language – Saying “I’m fine” while fidgeting or crossing arms is a red flag.

The Role of Intuition in Truth-Telling

The most powerful lie detector isn’t a polygraph — it’s a human nervous system attuned to truth and falsity.
When you strengthen your connection to your body’s signals, you’ll start catching dishonesty before your mind can make excuses for it.

How to Sharpen Your Intuition

  • Pause before responding – Give yourself a moment to feel, not just think.

  • Notice physical reactions – Tight chest? Shallow breathing? Those are signs worth paying attention to.

  • Track patterns – Does this person often make you feel uneasy? It’s worth exploring why.

  • Practice in low-stakes situations – The more you listen to your gut daily, the clearer it becomes in high-stakes moments.

Why This Matters

Spotting dishonesty isn’t about becoming paranoid. It’s about reclaiming your ability to protect yourself, trust your instincts, and navigate relationships with clarity. When you listen to that quiet voice inside, you’re not just avoiding lies — you’re aligning yourself with truth, safety, and self-respect.

✨ In this episode of The Rewilded Human, we explore how to trust your gut, why it’s the most accurate lie detector you’ll ever have, and how to strengthen it so you can spot a liar before the truth even breaks.

You already know the way. You always have.

How to Break a Water Fast

As always there's quite a bit of conflicting information out there about how to break a fast. One thing everyone agrees on is that the fast needs to broken slowly and gently. You also need several days to go back to eating normally. For example, if you do a 7 day fast, you need about 3 days of refeeding. On a 10 day fast, you'll need 4-5 days and so on. How you break the fast will make or break the whole experience. If you go right back to your old way of eating, you can easily negate all the benefits of your fast. One school of thought insists on breaking the fast with fruit, more specifically watermelon and then lots of veggies and more fruit. Since my goal is to remain in ketosis, I will be taking a different approach. I will be eating protein, fat and some low-carb veggies, bone broth and lots of water. I would also recommend abstaining from alcohol for at least a few days so you're not overburdening your liver. Listen to your body. Don't force the food if yo...

4 Months Later - Fasting - Carnivore - OMAD

I know it's been a while since I've done an update. So here we are at the beginning of September already. Things are progressing really nicely. So much better than I ever imagined. I've slowly transitioned to a mostly Carnivore diet , consisting or meat, eggs and dairy with very little veggies and no fruit. I've continued fasting on a regular basis. Basically having just one meal a day on most days (OMAD) and then still doing regular water fasts as I feel the need. My weight continued to decrease slowly but very steadily. I wasn't expecting this at all. I would have been very happy just maintaining my weight under 70kg and here I am at 62kg. How cool is that? Yeah, I'm sure excited.  Here's my latest before and after pic. Hopefully you guys can see the difference. I can tell you that I feel so amazing! I've had to buy a whole new wardrobe. I know, the horror, eh? I've stopped taking all my supplements. My eczema is a thing of the past. My Has...
