What is it about women's intuition

Intuition- a keen and quick insight.
Whether being a mother, or a girlfriend, women always have this way of knowing what's going on without being there. How do we know to listen to it though? How do we know when it's actually being done or if it's just our mind messing with us? Theres many questions I have about how to use it. Would yoga help because its teaching you how to focus on one thing? Maybe if you tune evrything out and try to concentrate you'll learn how to use it. That was just my thought for the morning after a rough night, I just dont know how to act upon it. Everyday a new page, closing of a chapter.
