STEP 1: THE ART OF OBSERVATION
Before you waste any time wondering if you have any psychic abilities, or whether you can actually develop them, let me clear up the issue by saying that you do have psychic abilities and you can easily develop them. Everyone has psychic abilities! The question is how you develop them.
Would you believe that you can radically increase your psychic abilities by practicing for 5-10 minutes a day? All you need is pen and paper. Don't think about your psychic abilities as something "special" or "difficult to learn. Learning to use your psychic abilities is no more difficult than learning to bake a cake - you're just using different ingredients!
Before we dive into instructions about how to increase your abilities, let's define what we mean by psychic abilities. When you are using psychic awareness you are extending beyond what is already in your psychic realm. Things that are beyond your five sense that of taste, touch, smell, hearing and sight. If you are able to access information from your spiritual center you can accomplish many extraordinary things. With these abilities you can gleam information that you could not possibly know about people, places and things. With practice you can even go to places and see things without even leaving your home, or office. that
Here's a simple exercise that will help you develop your psychic abilities. With this exercise your goal is to practice using your Spirit abilities to access information that you can't access with your five senses. Here's how you do it:
1. Bring pen, paper and a watch or timer to a very public location that has lots of people. Fast food restaurants, airports or malls are good places to start.
2. Seat yourself in a comfortable location where you can easily write, observe people and see your timer or clock.
3. Pick a person to observe (you will need to observe him or her for 30 seconds). Set your timer for 30 seconds and start writing.
4. Write anything and everything that comes up about that person, whether you can directly observe it or not. It's easier to start by writing what you can observe about the person (such as hair color, clothing, activities and so forth). Don't think about what you are writing and don't allow yourself to pause. Don't worry about whether you're observations are correct or not. Write as much as you can and as fast as you can.
5. Once the 30 seconds is up, pick another person to observe, set your timer and start writing.
6. Observe 10 people during a span of 5 minutes.
To give you an example of what you might right, look at the paragraph below:
Man, blond hair, jeans, has kids, mustache, kind, loves sports, likes water, has a brother, works outdoors, in tune with Nature, born in the West or has a connection to the West, nice tan, sneakers, talking with someone, talks with hand gestures, works well with hands, sensitive hands, sensitive nature, enjoys people, likes the color red, wears red a lot, brown eyes, around 40, jazz music, smiles a lot.
You'll notice in the short description above that there are many descriptions that can be seen with the five senses - the color of his hair, the way he talks with his hands, the color of his eyes and his tan. In between, though, are descriptors that can't be seen with the five senses - that he has a brother, he is in tune with Nature, likes the color red and jazz music. Notice that I didn't write that he likes jazz music, plays jazz music or listens to jazz music. I just wrote "jazz music." There may be someone around him to plays jazz music or he may like to listen to jazz music. Those details didn't come up so I just wrote jazz music. Be sure to write whatever comes up - no editing!!
It doesn't matter if any of your descriptions, especially those that are done with Spirit abilities, are actually correct. The goal is to practice accessing information with these abilities. The correctness of your observation will improve with time. Practice this exercise as often as you can - any time you are waiting for a bus, sitting at a restaurant or resting in a public setting. If you don't get out much, you can do the same exercise by turning the volume off your TV and observing the people on TV.
You'll find that with practice you will develop the ability to simply look at people and know what they are like, what's going on in their lives and what is important to them. The more you practice, the better you'll get. The key is not to get attached to the correctness of what you right. The less you judge yourself the more correct your observations will become. Good luck!

What is a Clairvoyant?
I have often been asked what Clairvoyance actually means. The word Clairvoyance is often associated with psychic powers. It is actually a form of extra-sensory perception. The word is derived from two French words: clair: meaning clear and voyance: meaning visibility.
Clairvoyants are people with the ability to gain insight about persons, locations or physical events by seeing beyond the five senses. We have the inquirer ask specific questions that are relative to their current situation. When beginning to work with a client it is important to have those first questions in order to tap into their personal energy or view of the situation. I tell my clients that this is a way to focus on their particular situation. When asked this first set of questions I will look for something I call an event horizon. This is a place in time where there is extreme sadness, anger, peace or desire, and is the precursor to the present event.
During a reading it is also possible to have loved ones who are interested in connecting with the living to pass on information, or to just let someone know they made it over to the other side. There is not always a message sometimes it can be merely an image whereby I pass this on to the client. If there are specific questions for the deceased it is not always possible to get the answers, but the likelihood is good that you will get something. One must remember though that speaking with the deceased is not as easy as dialing 1-800-the-deceased. So keeping that in mind will help during your reading. If there is something of importance they will find a way to let you know.
Having reasonable expectations and, clear concise questions will help your reading flow with ease. If you are skeptical that’s ok, be respectful and patient you may be in for an interesting surprise. As with all my readings if you find that you are dissatisfied say so, and I will immediately refund. I like to be able to sleep at night and know that my days work was done in a proper manner with respect and dignity to your needs.
Finding Your Purpose in Life
How do you discover your real purpose in life? I’m not talking about your job, your daily responsibilities, or even your long-term goals. I mean the real reason why you’re here at all — the very reason you exist.
Perhaps you’re a rather nihilistic person who doesn’t believe you have a purpose and that life has no meaning. Doesn’t matter. Not believing that you have a purpose won’t prevent you from discovering it, just as a lack of belief in gravity won’t prevent you from tripping. All that a lack of belief will do is make it take longer, so if you’re one of those people, just change the number 20 in the title of this blog entry to 40 (or 60 if you’re really stubborn). Most likely though if you don’t believe you have a purpose, then you probably won’t believe what I’m saying anyway, but even so, what’s the risk of investing an hour just in case?
Here’s a story about Bruce Lee which sets the stage for this little exercise. A master martial artist asked Bruce to teach him everything Bruce knew about martial arts. Bruce held up two cups, both filled with liquid. “The first cup,” said Bruce, “represents all of your knowledge about martial arts. The second cup represents all of my knowledge about martial arts. If you want to fill your cup with my knowledge, you must first empty your cup of your knowledge.”
If you want to discover your true purpose in life, you must first empty your mind of all the false purposes you’ve been taught (including the idea that you may have no purpose at all).
So how to discover your purpose in life? While there are many ways to do this, some of them fairly involved, here is one of the simplest that anyone can do. The more open you are to this process, and the more you expect it to work, the faster it will work for you. But not being open to it or having doubts about it or thinking it’s an entirely idiotic and meaningless waste of time won’t prevent it from working as long as you stick with it — again, it will just take longer to converge.
Here’s what to do:
1. Take out a blank sheet of paper or open up a word processor where you can type (I prefer the latter because it’s faster).
2. Write at the top, “What is my true purpose in life?”
3. Write an answer (any answer) that pops into your head. It doesn’t have to be a complete sentence. A short phrase is fine.
4. Repeat step 3 until you write the answer that makes you cry. This is your purpose.
That’s it. It doesn’t matter if you’re a counselor or an engineer or a bodybuilder. To some people this exercise will make perfect sense. To others it will seem utterly stupid. Usually it takes 15-20 minutes to clear your head of all the clutter and the social conditioning about what you think your purpose in life is. The false answers will come from your mind and your memories. But when the true answer finally arrives, it will feel like it’s coming to you from a different source entirely.
For those who are very entrenched in low-awareness living, it will take a lot longer to get all the false answers out, possibly more than an hour. But if you persist, after 100 or 200 or maybe even 500 answers, you’ll be struck by the answer that causes you to surge with emotion, the answer that breaks you. If you’ve never done this, it may very well sound silly to you. So let it seem silly, and do it anyway.
As you go through this process, some of your answers will be very similar. You may even re-list previous answers. Then you might head off on a new tangent and generate 10-20 more answers along some other theme. And that’s fine. You can list whatever answer pops into your head as long as you just keep writing.
At some point during the process (typically after about 50-100 answers), you may want to quit and just can’t see it converging. You may feel the urge to get up and make an excuse to do something else. That’s normal. Push past this resistance, and just keep writing. The feeling of resistance will eventually pass.
You may also discover a few answers that seem to give you a mini-surge of emotion, but they don’t quite make you cry — they’re just a bit off. Highlight those answers as you go along, so you can come back to them to generate new permutations. Each reflects a piece of your purpose, but individually they aren’t complete. When you start getting these kinds of answers, it just means you’re getting warm. Keep going.
It’s important to do this alone and with no interruptions. If you’re a nihilist, then feel free to start with the answer, “I don’t have a purpose,” or “Life is meaningless,” and take it from there. If you keep at it, you’ll still eventually converge.
When I did this exercise, it took me about 25 minutes, and I reached my final answer at step 106. Partial pieces of the answer (mini-surges) appeared at steps 17, 39, and 53, and then the bulk of it fell into place and was refined through steps 100-106. I felt the feeling of resistance (wanting to get up and do something else, expecting the process to fail, feeling very impatient and even irritated) around steps 55-60. At step 80 I took a 2-minute break to close my eyes, relax, clear my mind, and to focus on the intention for the answer to come to me — this was helpful as the answers I received after this break began to have greater clarity.
Here was my final answer: to live consciously and courageously, to resonate with love and compassion, to awaken the great spirits within others, and to leave this world in peace.
When you find your own unique answer to the question of why you’re here, you will feel it resonate with you deeply. The words will seem to have a special energy to you, and you will feel that energy whenever you read them.
Discovering your purpose is the easy part. The hard part is keeping it with you on a daily basis and working on yourself to the point where you become that purpose.
If you’re inclined to ask why this little process works, just put that question aside until after you’ve successfully completed it. Once you’ve done that, you’ll probably have your own answer to why it works. Most likely if you ask 10 different people why this works (people who’ve successfully completed it), you’ll get 10 different answers, all filtered through their individual belief systems, and each will contain its own reflection of truth.
Obviously, this process won’t work if you quit before convergence. I’d guesstimate that 80-90% of people should achieve convergence in less than an hour. If you’re really entrenched in your beliefs and resistant to the process, maybe it will take you 5 sessions and 3 hours, but I suspect that such people will simply quit early (like within the first 15 minutes) or won’t even attempt it at all. But if you’re drawn to read this blog (and haven’t been inclined to ban it from your life yet), then it’s doubtful you fall into this group.
Give it a shot! At the very least, you’ll learn one of two things: your true purpose in life -or- that you should unsubscribe from this blog.

Developing Your Psychic Abilities
When you learn a new topic it also opens your social range, and allows you to discuss things which you have in common. Is the topic of psychic development for everyone? No, however, it can lead to many interesting paths. Where you obtain your information is extremely important. If you are fortunate enough to have someone in your immediate family to help you through the initial twists and turns of psychic awareness this is most recommended. There are a lot of people out there that claim to have psychic ability; however it is very important before you decide to pick someone to emulate that you first research who they are and what they have done for their community and their clients.
If they are on the level there will be plenty of information, and perhaps even a method to contact and ask questions directly. There are many different types of psychics and their abilities are just as differing as there are types of spices on the planet. I will give a detailed list directly after this article so that you may find your particular area of interest. For now let’s get into some basis steps of obtaining information from spirit. It takes 21 days to either break a habit or create a new one. In the first 21 days it is recommended that you find a method of quieting your mind.
Just as there are many methods of cooking there are just as many when contemplating peace of mind. You may find that there are some religious aspects that can assist you with finding this peace, or you can try some new angles. Some find that prayer (whatever the religious choice) is comforting and stimulates the peace that is needed. There are those who find walking in a natural setting brings about serenity, and those who find listening to waterfalls, or running water from an indoor fountain seems to lull the mind into a quite bliss. Whatever you are most comfortable with use until you find something more suitable.
At first it is only recommended that you meditate, or pray for about 5-10 minutes if you are not used to doing this for a longer length of time. Everything in moderation so that you do not feel forced, or like you have failed if you have not reached your quiet goal time. That’s right set a goal for quiet time. Goal setting is very important to success, and since you are now taking on the goal of becoming more intoned with your spiritual side this is a perfect time to start setting goals. When you reach that point of serenity then what? Ok, so you have met your goal time for quieting your mind now it’s time for the next step. Becoming aware of what is around you.
Wait a minute I thought I was supposed to be quieting my mind; you want me to become aware of all the noise around me too? Much of the daily noise in your life is at some point white noise, or just simply background information. If you are used to a lot of noise such as children, your work place, social activities etc, then you have also learned to pretty much block out what you really don’t want to pay direct attention too. Allow thoughts to come and go freely as if washing in and out on a tide. You will eventually be able to train your mind to pay attention only to quiet time, and not be bothered by mundane daily activity.
If you feel the need you may focus on a question that you are seeking answers too, a single word or a tone to use as a tool for focusing. You may after a number of short sessions of between 10-20 minutes begin to see images, and perhaps even hear information. All of which is very normal. What do I do with the information once I get it? It is recommended that you keep a journal of your sessions for the entire 3 weeks you are working on your psychic journey.
If you are truly in tune with your ability you will start to see patterns. Ask yourself these questions when making your assessment on your session:
1. How did you feel? Your mind, body, soul impressions about the session.
2. Did you see information, hear it, or have a body impression?
3. What was the exact impression you were given?
4. Did you feel a presence in the room when you received the information?
5. Did you feel any sort of temperature change near you when you received this information?
6. Was it a strong impression or weak?
7. Did this impression repeat itself 2 or 3 times?
8. Did you feel comfortable receiving the information?
9. And most importantly do you want to continue doing the sessions?
Once you finish your session and writing in your journal you may want to take a walk in a natural setting, wash your hands in cool water, or take a shower. All of which will help you relax and come back into your daily life effective and informed.
*Authors note: Psychic work is not for everyone, but if you are finding that you are getting answers to questions, or able to help others seek out their own peace of mind then you are truly on your way to psychic development. If you find however, that you are not able to find your niche in the psychic world, do not fret you are born with special abilities, so do your best to find out where your heart sings.
Is My Child Psychic?
Do you live with a child who is having dreams that seem to take life in waking hours? Does your child tell you about who is calling before the phone rings? Have they ever mentioned loved ones who have crossed over giving them messages or stories from your past? Then you may be experiencing a very normal occurrence of child psychic awareness.
Children from a very young age as early as 2 can often sense energies that seem to baffle adults, and they do not have that need to suppress what they see or feel. However, many times these sensations can be quite scary, and they should be address with kit gloves. If you’re willing to speak with your child about their experience first and foremost do not give them leading questions.
Depending on their age and ability to speak their thoughts clearly allow them to come to you in what ever way they feel most comfortable. Asking leading questions or prying can make them feel like they are a victim, or feel like they are not normal. When they have a question or some information that they want to share it may come out in pictures allow them to have plenty of crayons and paper to express these visions. If they are verbal allow them to talk to you and listen with compassion, ask them how their experience has made them feel, or if they would like to talk to anyone else about it.
Many times they will tell you bits and pieces, and it may not sound or feel right to you, but to them it makes perfect sense. As a responsible parental can do is keep a journal of these events, and be mindful of things that seem to have a pattern. If the child is currently going through some emotional trauma such as divorce, death of a loved one, or medical situation it may be that they are experiencing stress/anxiety and the events will pass once they regain some sort of normalcy.
Understanding the why of these events is just as important as dealing with the fact that they are happening in the first place. Once it has been established that your child is gaining information from a supernatural source it is important to find someone they are comfortable with to discuss what is happening. You are their first person of choice because they have come to you to share these visions. If you have someone you know that has previous experience in these matters it would be time to ask them if they would step in and assist with any questions the child or you may have.
You may also have a pastor or someone of faith who can help discern your child's information. Another resource which may or may not be readily available to you is a local ghost hunting chapter or paranormal research facility. Before you enlist services from a group first do your own research into their background. Many groups out there are very good, reliable and committed to paranormal investigations and research, but like with all things some are not so enlightened.
If nothing else listen to your child, do no blow them off or make them feel like they are performing. Do not ask them zillions of questions and make them feel like they are a freak. It will damage their personal and spiritual growth. Not everyone will respond well to a psychic child, and so they must be taught to not offer this information to strangers, or those who would seek out to manipulate them. Like anything else they must be shown stranger danger also in the psychic world.
If they are being pestered by a spirit they need to learn that they can say to that unwanted presence to leave them alone. Also, if they are truly gifted it is important to teach them how to protect themselves from unwanted energies, by learning positive energy work, blessings of their faith, and/or spiritual protection. I will be addressing these issues in further writings.
If you have a child who is currently experiencing paranormal activity I would like to hear from you. I have 6 children of my own and 4 of them I know for a fact are psychic kids. As a parent born with clairvoyant ability I have a unique approach to teaching children how to live with the psychic world.
Be Well in All Things, Jackie
How to Empower Yourself and Manifest your Future
Believe... and suddenly anything is attainable."...take steps towards your desire and allow the Universe to manifest it into your physical experiential reality in ways The Universe will take care of."
The most important law of manifesting is knowing what you desire already exist. Dwelling on what you do not have is the main basis for stopping the process of manifestation. The more energy you give to things that you feel are negative the more you will push yourself into darkness. Understanding that you truly hold the keys to your success or your demise is the next most important thing to examine while in the process of manifesting your future.
Let me show you how to break out of your mental, physical and spiritual prison, and shine the light of hope, compassion, consistency and joy for years to come.
