Chances are you’re here because you find this psychic stuff fascinating and you want to learn more about it and how you can be a part of it. You want to undergo some serious psychic development.
I only have good news for you—ALL good news. We are all born psychic, but along the busy road of life, we tend to lose connection to the ability. But just as a muscle that has never been worked out, it’s still there for you to use should you ever decide you want to exercise it.
The other piece of good news? It’s fairly easy to get reconnected and started. Below, you will find ten easy steps to begin psychic development:
1. Meditation
You have to raise your vibration and meditation does that. The length of the meditation isn’t important—something is better than nothing, but frequency helps. Try to meditate daily to keep your vibration high and yourself grounded and centered.
A word on meditation: most people think of sitting cross-legged in a robe chanting “om.” This is certainly one form of meditation but not the only form. We meditate naturally daily. How many times have you been driving in a car, for example, only to look up and realize your mind had been some place completely different for the duration of your drive? That is meditation.
Find the activity that makes you zone out—taking a shower, going for a walk, riding a bike. Whatever that thing is, try a guided meditation from Youtube (I recommend The Honest Guys) in headphones while you perform your zone out activity.
2. Visualization
You want to begin to see images vividly and completely. An easy way to do this is sit in a quiet room, relaxed and close your eyes. Once relaxed, mentally walk yourself through a familiar location—home, your work place, your family member’s home. What do you see? What color are the walls? Are there items on the counters? What does the flooring look like?
Try to visualize as many details about your chosen location as you can and, if possible, verify those details once you’re done visualizing.
3. Learn
No man is an island. In other words, you cannot do this alone. Get your hands on as much information as you can regarding the psychic arts and gifts. Read blogs. Check out some books. Try a tarot deck. Learn as much about the intuitive arts as you possibly can.
4. Practice
The old cliché that practice makes perfect is completely true. Do some readings for your friends and family if they’re open to it. In the beginning, you’re not looking for accuracy. You’re looking for practice and to hone your ever-expanding skills. Just as you will not become an excellent piano player by just practicing a few times, the same goes for this gift.
5. Control your gifts
There will come a point along your journey where you’re always “on.” Information will be flying at you, energy will be swirling and you will be like a magnet for information. You do not have to constantly be on. You can learn to control the gift.
You can visualize a candle or light switch in your mind. Once the candle is lit or the light switch is in the “on” position, you’re open to receive information. Blow out the candle or turn the switch off, and that is your symbol to Spirit that you’re not “taking calls” at the moment.
6. Take a class.
Do you have a local spiritualist shop in or near your area? Many times, they offer classes and get togethers. It’s always a good idea to attend these get togethers or attend classes if available. If there are none in your area, a good resource is meetup.com. You can find gatherings near you and if none exist, you can start your own.
7. Keep a journal.
Especially when you’re developing your gift, it’s a great idea to keep a journal. Keep a journal of recurring themes, synchronicities, symbols, numbers, and dreams. This will help you begin to see patterns where you may not logically see them.
8. Visit places with great energy.
I’m not advocating going to a place that’s haunted, but I am saying go to places with historical significance. Antique shops are really good for this as there are a lot of items there that you can touch. How does the energy feel? Do you sense anything about the items or in these areas?
9. Past life regression meditation.
Doing a guided past life regression meditation like this one is one of the greatest tools in your arsenal. It will stimulate you so you can see past this lifetime and those you lived before this incarnation. It’s also a good exercise of your third eye chakra.
10. Know your guides
Try a guided meditation to meet your spirit guides. Your guides were selected by you before you incarnated in this lifetime, so you know them. They have names and personalities and are here to help. Ask their names and for them to reveal themselves to you. Also, check out this book by Sonia Choquette which goes into great detail about spirit guides.
This is not an exhaustive list by any means, but the goal is to be open, free, and to have fun!
