Psychic abilities are something that everyone has whether we acknowledge them or not.

We are all psychic, though some of us are using our abilities consciously and some are not. If you decide you are keen to learn about how to access your psychic abilities then there are many avenues you can venture into, and through this article I hope to guide you to where you will find out more about your unique abilities without any fear mongering information that one can stumble across as we venture online to find out more on this subject.
I am speaking 100% from personal experience here as someone who has been through what is known as a Spiritual Awakening, and consequently as a Spiritual Teacher, Healer and Channel have been learning, studying and experiencing what it is like to navigate the awakening process for myself and my clients for many years now.
Firstly, I don't feel the process really ever ends, but rather. changes and shifts along the way. We climb one mountain, only to realise there are many more waiting for us, and this is how we grow, learn and gain wisdom.
The first thing to acknowledge is that if you feel drawn to learn about psychic development, there is a reason; spirit is knocking on the door to remind you that you are here for a reason, and that it's time to get moving toward realising that you are more than your physical self. You might be going through a difficult phase or have recently lost a loved one or seeking direction. At some point we begin to question our place in the world and begin the journey of discovering our true purpose. Your purpose might be what propels you into something that changes the world, or you may simply be a light that helps one person. Whatever your purpose, it is valuable - YOU are valuable! You are so much more than you could imagine, outside of your current 3D reality. You are human, YES, but you are also multifaceted, filled with unlimited potential. You can have anything that you want if you believe that to be true, because you see, what you believe to be true for you and the world, is what you will experience as true for you in your world.
We are each a part of a greater whole having an experience that we are creating moment by moment. This is why our thoughts are so important and learning to work with energy is a valuable tool in manouvering through life. When we understand energy, we understand that we can and do fluctuate in our energetic vibration, and can easily raise our vibration in an instant in order to resonate with higher level experiences.
So, back to Psychic Abilities - As I mentioned, if you are feeling excited, curious or pulled in the direction of wanting to activate your psychic senses, of which there are many, then that is a sign and listening to the signs you receive are the way you move forward on your spiritual journey. Trust is a key factor! Activating your Psychic Abilities is not just about opening your 3rd Eye; in fact I don't recommend you jump straight into that until you have worked on your lower Chakras and started to do some healing. We all have healing to do, even if we have convinced ourselves that we are perfectly fine. If you think about where you are now on your journey, then go back to your birth into this world, there will have been something that has happened to cause you some discomfort at the very least. Most of us have experienced the loss of a loved one, a relationship break up, maybe an illness or are a child of divorced parents. Whatever the scenario, the energy of our experiences stay with us. Beliefs and patterns that have carried over from those experiences, from our environment, our peers, parents and relatives, teachers and so on become a part of who we are and how we move through life. As such, if we were to jump straight in and open our third eye, we may be shown our trauma in some way; any lack of self worth or fear of any kind. I don't recommend that! There is darkness to bring to light gently and safely before then. Start slow and work on yourself often - This is a life long journey so there is no rush, although I completely understand how exciting it can be to learn about the myriad of topics connected with a spiritual path and being pulled in a whole lot of different directions. There is time, so take it slow and integrate the teachings at your own pace. Learning about the Chakra System will serve you well and a great place to start. You will benefit from working on your Root Chakra in order to ground yourself here into the Earth in this reality while you start to traverse the higher realms. Don't worry! This doesn't mean you won't be able to access higher levels of consciousness, but what it does mean is that the guidance you receive will be accessed in a way that will be grounded and useful. If you stay up in the quantum too long, you may be doing yourself a dis-service, and not really living your human existence which is what you are here for at this time.
To activate your psychic abilities, I recommend meditation, yoga, breath work, reiki etc (or something else entirely that you feel called to do) and spending time in nature. I was very drawn to crystals and oracle cards, which are great tools to start working with to start working your psychic muscle and gain access to Spirit Guides and learn more about energy. Maybe your modality of choice is Astroglogy or Numerology or even Light Language? It is my belief that our Spirit Guides are facets of who we are as we play out parallel lives simultaneously, so we may be connecting with out future selves, past selves, parallel selves as our psychic senses come online. Remember that nothing is really ever truly outside of us, and Spirit Guides are no exception. We have our own universe within us. This is of course my belief system and it is important to trust what feels true for you. I also believe that there are no limits as to what and who our guides can be, although in my experience I have never had passed loved ones as actual spirit guides, though I have heard people say they have them.
Your intuition is natural and everyone is intuitive. We are sentient beings who feel, see, hear, smell and 'just know' things. Our natural psychic abilities havent been encouraged through our school systems and if anything, have been viewed as something 'woo' or fake, so, if we are to step into awakening our intuitive selves more, then we need to let that go, releasing the need to worry about what anyone else thinks of us. You might even feel like you are going a bit crazy sometimes as you move through the process of accessing your psychic abilities, but that is mostly because it's something that is new and very different to what we are accustomed to. We have been taught to trust the facts, trust the science, do what your teachers tell you to do, listen to the Government because they know best and care about us, but actually, err no, they don’t!
We need to listen to ourselves and trust the nudges of our soul to guide us to where we are are to go in order to reach our highest potential, both as an individual and as humanity collectively.
If you are someone who has always followed the crowd then this will be a new direction for you and I know you can do it. It doesn't mean you don't have friends to support you, or family members as part of your journey, but it means that you have all the answers and don't need to be told what to do from here on out. Listen to other perspectives, read books, take classes and know that working with teachers, coaches and mentors holds so much value, however, remember to trust what feels true for you and don't get lost in the ideology of another person. No one is better than you or above you. There is no heirachy and no one is more advanced than anyone else. We are each evolving in our own way in our own time. Release your attachment to the energy of lack because you are good enough and you can have everything that you desire whether that be spiritual knowledge or an abundance of wealth. Nothing is out of reach! You are worthy.
To start your journey of activating your psychic abilities I would recommend buying yourself a journal that is brand new and for the purpose of recording your experiences.
Next! Write down your reason for wanting to activate your psychic abilities. eg. Do you feel it will help you in your own life in making decisions, to help others or do you want to reach your full potential? There is no wrong answer here, but your reason is important. Activating your Psychic abilities will help you in your life and will certainly help others if you decide to work with clients at some point and to be of service to humanity. It should never be to impress anyone, to show off, as this is very ego based. You have nothing to prove to anyone and in fact it may hinder your abilities if that is the path you choose to take. Psychic abilties, just like healing abilities are for the greater good and to empower each of us to awaken what might be laying dormant within us. We have used our intuitive gifts many times before in other lifetimes so once awakened you will know what feels most natural and where you feel most drawn.
Next! Make a space in your home, even if it is just a corner in a room where you can sit and meditate, journal, breathe, create and this is your special place that is designated just for you to work on your spiritual practices.
