How To Awaken Your Psychic Power

Have you ever heard of people who seem to know what's about to happen well before it happens? Or do you know someone whose dreams come true quite literally? It is said that certain individuals are gifted with psychic skills and can see and feel a lot more than the rest of us. It's like they have a direct line linking them to a different dimension that works as a source of additional knowledge.

Psychic powers can be defined as the capacity to use extrasensory perception to identify and process information that can't be accessed by normal senses. There are no crystal balls or magic crystals involved. There's simply more to this world than meets the eye and some people can go beyond physical boundaries and understand things at a deeper level.

Maybe you're wondering why others have these abilities and you don't. The truth is we all have psychic gifts hidden deep inside our spirit. They just manifest differently from person to person and, just as with any other gifts, if they're not cultivated you might not even be aware you have them. During childhood we are much more in touch with our spiritual side and it's not unusual for children to have strong psychic abilities. However, as we grow older, we are told that only the physical realm is real and everything else is just a product of our imagination. We learn to dismiss anything that can't be explained by science and reason and we slowly quieten our psychic powers, so they stop manifesting.

The good news is you never lose your psychic abilities completely. They're just left in a dormant state, but can be awakened with practice and patience. Here are some techniques that will help you reconnect with your extrasensory perceptions and develop your natural psychic gifts.

Meditation is something quite common these days and many people practice it for various reasons. Some use it as a way to reduce stress and find some peace in this crazy-paced world we live in; others practice it to achieve mental focus and promote a sense of wellbeing. Since meditation works by quieting your mind and getting in touch with your true nature, it will help you connect with your higher self and reopen spiritual paths within you. Once you push away the mental noise and your mind is calm and quiet, you can let your spirit energy guide you and you'll become aware of otherworldly messages.

Trust your gut is something we usually hear when we have to make a decision and we're not sure which path to choose. Well, the same rule applies when it comes to channeling your inner psychic. Everyone has experienced at least once in their life that strange feeling that something is right or wrong, without having a clear explanation why they feel that way. That's your intuition trying to point you in the right direction and give you some clarity on a certain situation.

Of course, if you want your inner voice to become louder, you must build a relationship with it. You can do that by analyzing what your natural instinct tells you to do in different moments, listen to it carefully and see where it leads. It will be harder in the beginning to let your intuition guide the way, but in time it will become clearer and clearer which path you should follow.

While we are awake, we are limited to processing only what our palpable reality offers us. This is normal as we couldn't function if we were constantly absorbing all the stimuli that surround us at any given moment. But it doesn't mean they pass unnoticed. They are stored in our subconscious mind and come out of hiding while we sleep.

Dreams are our gateway to a different dimension, allowing us to escape our limited reality and go beyond what our conscious minds can process, and by that they can help us tap into our psychic abilities. Obviously, it's much easier to access the subconscious realm through a deep and peaceful sleep. Before bed, you can try some relaxation methods such as the classic warm bath, aromatherapy candles or relaxing sounds to lure the sandman. Then you can navigate the magical dream world and ignite your psychic powers. You will eventually begin to make connections between the waking world and the subconscious plane and have some very interesting revelations.

Creativity is a way in which energy can be expressed and a channel for cultivating spiritual connections. When people hear the word creativity, they immediately think of hobbies such as painting, drawing, playing a musical instrument etc. These hobbies can be much more than a fun and entertaining way to spend time.

When you create you use your body as a tool to channel energy from a higher plane. If you already have a creative hobby, you might already be getting some psychic information, but you're probably not sure how to interpret it. There's no textbook to help you decipher the messages. All you have to do is keep on creating and paying attention to what you experience during the process.

The world around us can be a great playground for psychics. Every corner of it is filled with stimuli and information that are not obvious for the untrained eye. It's only through constant exercise and psychic skills practice that you can reveal what's hidden. Wherever you go, try to scan the environment by observing details such as smell, colours, scents and analyse how these elements make you feel. Practice scanning in different settings to help you become more aware of the energies that surround you. The more often you do these exercises, the easier it will be to read a space, sharpen your senses and apply your psychic abilities to all areas of your life.
