Saving a tank from death, or a 40% healing boost to every healer if it doesn't proc? What do you think? The reason you don't use it in heroics is because heroics are easy, there's no need. Raids, however, require more input than heroics.

just wondering if guardian spirit is more of a raid type heal cause i dont seem to use it alot if at all during heroics
Yes. Guardian Spirit is really not for heroics 'cause people don't really die or even get remotely close to dying there. You put it on your tank during times you know he'll need it, like a high damage phase. Festergut is a fight that comes to mind after the 2nd inhale.

Isn't the 3rd inhale... after the 2nd inhale? ;-)

You got me there :P
EDIT: Considering the question posed by the OP, it seems to me he's a fresh 80 and ICC is a bit too far out of reach for him at the moment. He'll likely start running ToC25 soon, so perhaps a more topical example would be on twins (can't remember the name of the mechanic, ugh... DBM FTW), or perhaps Anub P3.
Once he gets into ICC, yes, Festergut springs to mind (although a smart tank will save his CDs for the 3rd inhale, but a smart tank isn't guaranteed), and also Sindragosa P3, probably on the lesser geared tank while the better geared tank is clearing his stacks. It's also great after a portal phase on Dreamwalker (she has a 1 minute ICD, so you can only use it every second phase, regardless of if there is more than 1 holy priest in the raid).
In all reality though, Mr OP, Guardian Spirit isn't something that should be off CD for very long. Ideally, you only want to be using it for the 40% buff, but it is also an "oh shiiit" button that can be used on anyone who got themselves stuck in the fire - save a high DPS or a healer with it.

No. It's some mechanic where DBM gives you a warning saying "More healing on "

Ah, that one. I think it's called Twin Spike or something like that. ;)

All you can really do is learn when and how Guardian Spirit is best utilized. I can promise you though, it
is
worth the 1 tp you spend to get it. It is also very much worth it to use the glyph to reduce the CD to 1 min as long as long as the spell lasted the full duration (meaning it didn't literally save someone's life).
