Subconscious is not the inner guide. This is subconscious.
Inner guide is not easily described, it is a "knowing", not an intellectual knowing, mind knowing, emotions, or any of that. One perspective to view it from, is that of an internal compass that guides you. It's not something that "controls" or is "to be controlled", it simply "Is" and it's a matter of how much one attunes to that internal compass, which can be heard loud and clear when one is fully attuned.
Independence is a an excellent quality to develop, then you know how to take care of yourself.
Enjoyable to chat with you, thank you.
