Developing Your Psychic Abilities
Developing Psychic Abilities
We all have psychic abilities. Some of us may have more natural
abilities than others, the same way that some of us seem
inclined towards music or mathematics. But just like any other
skill, psychic abilities can be trained and enhanced. The
following tips can help to increase your natural psychic skills.
Meditation: Meditation strengthens the ties to the spiritual
self and enhances the mind, body, spirit connection. There is no
greater tool available for increasing psychic abilities than
meditation. Through meditation it is possible to achieve a state
of intense awareness of subtle energies.
There are many sources of information regarding meditation
available if the practice is new to you. There are many
meditation techniques for you to choose from and I suggest
experimenting with various techniques until you find one that
feels right for you. Remember, there is no right way or wrong
way to perform meditation. It is only important that you are
able to relax and focus your mind. If you continue the practice
of meditation for any length of time, you will begin to notice
the existence of your own spiritual energy. It is the connection
to your spiritual self which provides intuitive information.
Strengthening the connection to your spiritual self will result
in an increase in of psychic abilities.
Awareness: Try to be more aware of your surroundings. Upon
waking in the morning, make an effort to lie still for a few
minutes without opening your eyes. Try to notice as many sounds,
textures and smells as possible before you decide to open your
eyes. This exercise if carried out for several weeks can greatly
help to increase your levels of awareness and intuition. The act
of listening is important in increasing psychic awareness, after
continuing this exercise for some time you will begin to notice
an increase in your overall awareness which affects your level
of intuition.
Focusing: Often intuitive information is communicated to us in
bits and pieces. Pay attention to random thoughts and feelings.
Keep a journal handy at all times and try to write down those
thoughts that seem to come out of nowhere. You may notice after
awhile that patterns tend to emerge. Thoughts that previously
seemed completely random and unconnected begin to form themes or
recognizable ideas.
Try to record your dreams in your journal. If you have been
following the awareness exercise outlined above you will have
noticed that your dreams are much easier to recall. Allowing
yourself a few minutes to be still upon waking makes it much
easier to remember dreams and with more detail, than if you rush
out of bed in the morning and hurry to start the day. Try
setting your alarm clock to wake you up ten or fifteen minutes
before your normal waking time. Give yourself some time to
remember your dreams and make a few quick notes in your journal.
These simple exercises can have dramatic results if practiced
regularly. These steps are just a few of the many techniques
available for increasing your psychic ability. There are many
other methods to choose from. In your search for information
regarding psychic development, it is important to be wary of any
methods which declare that psychic abilities are the result of
external forces, or any teachings which insist that psychic
powers are anything other than a natural human ability.
