By our presence, we can bring a healing touch to our families, peers, work situations, churches, communities, towns, and cities. This is the first step in learning how to be instruments of healing for others. Whether your professional background is-nursing, massage therapy, counseling, chaplaincy or any other service oriented profession- we are all called to be a healing presence for others. Learning to be present to others means first learning to be present with ourselves. This calls for an ability to be in the moment. Here are three levels of presence that healers need to practice to convey a healing touch: 1. Physical presence calls upon skills of seeing, touching, doing,[..]

Dialogs about Reiki are good, and keep Reiki fresh and dynamic. About 10 years ago, I went through a very long time of disillusionment about Reiki, just as its founder, Mikao Usui did during his early days of healing and teaching using the Reiki energy. In the end, I was even more deeply committed to the Reiki energy than ever before. The stories, the histories, and the people were only part of the path that the Reiki energy itself used to come to us. I could see that the core energy was the important thing and always managed to come through, no matter the controversies and confusions. I was taught Reiki by two masters, one of whom was taught by two other masters, one with a[..]

A psychic healer is a person who has the ability to cure diseases, eliminate pain, and diagnose illnesses by using their abilities to create a diagnosis as well as curing the ailment. By laying their hands on a person psychic healers can manipulate energies. Also, a healer can use visualizations to create wellness, as well as channeling spirit guides to gain knowledge as to how they should go about healing or making a diagnosis. Although there was a point in time when a healer would have been thought of as an insane person who practiced wild and crazy magic spells to heal or curse a person. Thankfully, those perceptions have changes and many healers have been accepted as a practitioners[..]

In present times, several people have learnt to discover the inner self and with it their psychic abilities. James Van Praagh is a psychic who has been able to bridge the gap between the living and the dead. He claims to feel the emotions and personalities of the deceased. Van Praagh is a clairvoyant and an expert on the subject. Born in Bay Side, NY, James Van Praagh's popularity rose during his appearances on the NBC talk Show, The Other Side. The show explored paranormal issues and portrayed him as an expert on the subject of life after death. He touched the lives of many people through his television appearances on shows such as Oprah, Larry King Live and 48 Hours. He is the author[..]

As spirituality becomes more wide-spread in the workplace, you will no longer need to deny your spiritual self while at work. Although working while walking the path of ascension can be extremely challenging, it is less challenging when you can express yourself freely. Your career can coexist peacefully with commitment to the development of the soul when you approach each with balance and determination. Native American culture is solely based on spirituality. When 'pale faces'-a.k.a. intruders-began occupying the land, currently called United States of America, Native Americans insisted on conducting all business dealings with spiritual practices and decorum. The intruders politely, if[..]

Being a mind-droid. Every now and again I have to pull my ego back in line; in fact it happens quite a lot. It's difficult trying to get the balance between trying to make money for the future and trying to be spiritual. Making money often involves the ego looking for attention. At every corner the ego stands and tries to attract attention to itself. Recently I have been doing this trying to attract visitors to this blog. It might take some time to realise the ego is on another power trip, but if you realise it you're doing well, if you don't realise it you will be like all the others in life living life as a mind-droid. My life as a blogger often sees me becoming a mind-droid until I[..]

How does one walk in spiritual detachment in a world in crisis? The question assumes spirituality requires political detachment. I am not sure that it does. I am also not sure it does not. But in certain circumstances, it is almost a requirement. The 2004 presidential election was especially compelling because so much was at stake--and only in retrospect have we actually realized how much. The dawning awareness that Exxon-Mobil and the US have some responsibility regarding global warming is only now taking its place in American's mindset beside its blunder of the war in Iraq. The 2004 election of George Bush would definitely extend policies that contributed to these problems. We in[..]

Many people are now claiming to be in contact with Michael Jackson in the world of spirit, could this be true or are they grieving fans who see and hear what they want and not what is real? His birthday on 29th August provoked a frenzy of reports that Michael was indeed responding to his fans' desperate wishes for contact. There is a huge body of evidence that confirms contact is certainly possible with someone who has passed on, too much for it all to be discounted. I think even total non believers would at least agree to there being something out there that we don't understand. How could this help you though? Is there someone who has passed over that you would dearly love to have[..]

An ethical psychic vampire is basically a kind of psychic healer. Psychic vampires siphon energy from others because they feel a need to do so. To behave ethically means to have a greater degree of conscious control over your behavior, and you can't take away energy from others ethically if you do it because of a need you feel. There are many situations where taking away psychic energy is the right thing to do. For example, a common type of headache is caused by mental confusion which allows the mind to overload with stressful psychic energies. In a way, psychic energies can be cancerous as well. Balance cannot be establishes if there are surplus energies in the system - they have to be[..]

In this article I thought I would set down ten things that you can do – ten principles to take account of – to benefit your practice of Reiki. This is not something that has come from Japan, or from early practitioners of Reiki: it is just something that I have put together myself. I hope that this article will be of interest to people at all Reiki levels. (1) Reiki is all about you Although Reiki is sometimes presented in the West as a sort of complementary therapy, a hands-on treatment technique, or a form of Japanese spiritual healing, that is not what Reiki is all about. If your practice of Reiki consists mainly of treating other people then you are missing the point because[..]

  If you have come across the word ‘kaizen’ before it will probably have been in the context of industrial quality control or personal development. “Kaizen” is a Japanese word that is usually translated as ‘improvement’, but it means more than that. The word has connotations of continuous, gradual, orderly and never-ending improvement, the willingness to constantly, relentlessly pursue improvement a small step at a time. The application of the kaizen principle is the reason why Japan’s economy was transformed after the Second World War. All workers were encouraged to make suggestions as to how quality and production could be improved, even by tiny, tiny percentages, but[..]

A guided meditation is an excellent way of meditating. Typically, you sit back and play a CD or MP3 track and follow the instructions on it. Most people find this an easier way to meditate than the traditional methods of clearing the mind and focusing on just one thing. Guided meditations for healing fall into two categories: specific healing meditations, focussed on healing just one thing, and general healing meditations which help your body to stay in good health. If you have a specific issue that needs dealing with, for instance if you are experiencing a great deal of pain somewhere in your body, then you should choose a guided meditation that will help you with that particular[..]

you ever wonder why a person might consult a psychic. I mean what is it that a psychic reading provides that really benefits anyone? From personal experience I believe I can truly answer that question. Psychic readings provide a format for many people to voice their inner concerns about life, love, relationships, and spiritual concerns. It allows individuals who would not normally seek counsel on these subjects to talk openly and freely without the fear or anxiety society places on traditional counseling. Talking with a psychic reader about issues and concerns in your life can really be a spiritually freeing experience. These readings sometimes awaken lost memories and emotions that one[..]

Have you ever observed that it very easy to attract certain things in life when compared to others? What are your priorities in life when it comes to attracting the objects of your desire? If you are like most other people, you may say "money" or "wealth". Money is definitely one of the objects of desire in our lives. It is a symbol of freedom and power. However, very people are really successful in attracting money. The main secret of manifesting faster... The main secret to increase your manifesting power and to put the laws of attraction into use is to improve and increase your spiritual power. With spiritual power, all your efforts will go in vain and not bear fruit. Don't lose your[..]

Easy, effortless financial abundance; optimal health; a loving intimate relationship; a happy, comfortable workplace, well suited to your own individual personality and needs – these are just a few of the things that any of us may wish to manifest for ourselves. What is manifesting? Manifesting basically involves the focusing of our intent, to create what it is that we want for ourselves. Many people underestimate the power of intention. They consider it fanciful or even wishful thinking, rather than something that can truly create the change that is desired. Still others – especially those who use energy healing or similar approaches – recognize and enjoy the[..]

Process for Conscious Manifesting Overview: The following are guidelines for becoming an active and conscious manifester in your life. We human beings are constantly manifesting. The power to manifest is already a part of you. It is your Being. We manifest through our body, mind and soul. Our thoughts, words, and actions are our tools. We manifest in our lives that upon which we focus. Most people manifest passively and unconsciously; they are victims of how their unconscious thoughts and words manifest outcomes in their lives. It is very important for us, who want to be conscious manifesters, to become exquisitely aware of what we focus on, consciously and unconsciously, and how to[..]

Once you have learned the various meanings of the Tarot cards, the next step is to read the cards for either your own self or for other people. Many people will tell you to do different things while doing Tarot card readings. Essentially, all of them simply boil down to doing what makes you feel comfortable and what is most aligned with your beliefs and philosophies. Here are a few Tarot card instructions which will help you find a structure and a base for your Tarot card readings: 1. Create your 'Code of Ethics': This is like a rule-book which you devise and you follow. It can have certain basic Dos and Donts which you follow and that will help your clients understand your basic[..]

The past of the Tarot is something that is concealed by time. There are some indications and academics that join the launch of the Tarot with that of old Egypt, while other researchers and investigators hint that the Tarot shares lineage with old gypsy cultures. Still, there are other investigators that designate an Italian beginning to the Tarot cards, and it is thought that the Tarot Cards grew into a mechanism of divination right around the 1400s. Since that time, 100's of various decks present emerged and are currently in use. One of the larger favourite decks being the Rider-Waite deck. A deck of tarot cards, as they are used today, contains 78 cards, all of which contain unlike,[..]

It's quite easy to become a psychic vampire: be needy, confused, stressed, irritable and oblivious to who you are or what you want. If you reduce yourself to such a base level, primal instincts take over a large part of your consciousness. Feeling a hunger for psychic energies and attention may become dominant and by reacting reflexively to it one can quickly deteriorate to being a psychic vampire. While becoming a psychic vampire is generally not something a psychic should aspire to, learning about and even practicing some techniques of psychic vampirism can be beneficial. Full-on psychic vampires are created subconsciously, from a deep need they are unable to resolve. So they just fall[..]

There are fakes and con artists promoting bogus telepathic services with the solitary point of making money but there are also loads of truthful supernatural psychic readers around. Psychic readings must give advice and direction in relation to the present and to the future, but often fakes will give very direct answers. People see psychics for a lot of diverse reasons, maybe for assistance on a present situation which is distressing them, assurance about a loved one that has died or help with any number of things. In a normal spiritual understanding some of the information will make sense to you and some you won't be sure on at all. Psychics have off days just as you and me, and they[..]

Who else needs to see a psychic? Are you desperate for some good guidance......but simply aren't sure where to turn to get it? I mean....is one service better than the next, or are they all roughly the same? And if not.....where is the best place to get a reputable psychic reading that is meaningful AND memorable alike? Any of these questions sound familiar? In my 20 years of psychic research, exploration, writings and readings, I've had the GAMUT of exceptional experiences with real intuitves and special sensitives from one side of the globe to the next. And I've had my share of dubious ones as well...:-) From readings that have been life changing in their accuracy......to[..]

In times long forgotten, people depended on intuition and psychic abilities to understand and operate in their world. The miracles of modern life - science and technology - have made our lives easier in many ways, but they have also created a barrier between our minds and our innate intuitive powers. That barrier has also cut us off from our inner spiritual core and energy. They're still there, but we can't seem to access them without great effort. Spiritual development and psychic self-defense are the antidote to modern life. We no longer have to accept modern stress and conflict into our minds and hearts. We no longer have to fall victim to the negative energies and influences that[..]

Do you want to open up your intuitive and psychic abilities and connect with spirit? Nearly every teacher of psychic development will tell you that one of the most effective steps you can take is to set up a regular meditation practice. In order to connect with spirit you have to raise your vibration and become a clear channel. Mediation over a sustained period of time will help you do that. Meditation will also ground and center you. And being grounded is essential in doing any spiritual work. First, set aside a regular time every day to meditate. If you can only muster 10 minutes at first, that will do. There are a variety of techniques and various preferences. Generally it is best to[..]

Psychic Development is an incredibly fast growing industry. Many people want to get in touch with their Spirit Guides, a higher source or develop their intuition, yet so many seem to end up lost and frustrated on their journey to working with Spirit. Why does this happen and what should you look for in a Spiritual Teacher? There are three things to investigate in a teacher if you wish to psychically develop: how and why a teacher learned their craft; a teacher's level of capability and experience; a teacher's non-esoteric teachings and learnings. These factors will shape a teacher's views, capacity, teaching contents, teaching style and outcome for you as a student. It will also shape[..]

When it comes to the subject of psychic development, there seems to be no middle ground. People either believe that it is possible or they don't. Usually, only those who have had at least one psychic experience of their own are willing to believe. Those who have not remain skeptical. There is still a lot of prejudice surrounding the subject of psychic abilities. As a result, many people who have had psychic experiences keep them to themselves, to avoid being ostracized by their community. They hold respectable positions in society and fear the consequences of admitting that they believe in any kind of paranormal experience. They have good reason to be afraid, having seen the ridicule[..]

Do you wish you were psychic? Well actually, you already are. All humans have the potential to demonstrate psychic abilities such as telepathy, clairvoyance, remote viewing and more. Unfortunately though, these abilities lie latent in most of us, because we grow up in a world which for the most part denies that such phenomena even exist. And even if psychic abilities are acknowledged, it's usually believed that they're the province of a few exceptional people, or they are viewed with ignorance and fear. So the first step towards developing your own psychic abilities is to acknowledge that it's possible for you. But where do you start? There are many books and websites which give advice[..]

Are you considering getting a psychic phone reading? If you are... the simple truth is that you are NOT alone! As a matter of fact... some studies suggest that in 2010, over 1 MILLION telephone readings will be done! Quite an accomplishment, don't you think? I do... and in my view, it means that more than ever before, people are taking advantage of the wide availability of premium quality psychics who are literally only a dial tone away. Gone are the days where you need to wait 3 months for a reading... or need to travel hundreds of miles or even pay hundreds (or thousands) of dollars for a premium, elite level, LEGITIMATE psychic reading.

Psychic ability is said to be the ability to have second sight, it can also be describe in the terms of extra sensory perception. Psychic abilities cover a wide area of metaphysics. When the word metaphysics is mentioned then many people have different views on this subject. Some people do not believe in psychic abilities and are skeptics; on the other hand many spiritual souls actually will swear by psychics ability being real. One thing is certain and that is; statistics show many people believe in psychic abilities (extra sensory perception) and also many people say they themselves experienced an event that is not explainable by known science. This humanly ability has been around for[..]

Prior to the times we live in today, many folks might quite often travel a long way, seeking a live psychic. Oftentimes, it might be due to the reason that a suitable fortune teller did not live in the immediate area. The one route to have a word with this type of a seer, was by going to meet them, even when this very often resulted in a lot of travel, as well as their time. However, on account of a craving to endeavor to locate the answers for challenging scenarios in peoples lives, that individuals went on the travels, as fortunetellers of yore were considerably more respected than they may be in our day. At the moment, certainly, live psychic readings will be available through a[..]

Historically a psychic vampire has been a creature that lurks in the dark or shows up in ones dreams and drains them of their life force, leaving them listless and ill. Folklore and literature is full of occurrences of these psychic vampires. What significance does a psychic vampire have in today’s world though? Some would say that the ‘past’ psychic vampires were simply a way of describing what today would have been diagnosed as leukemia, chronic fatigue syndrome, or iron deficiency. Without words in the past to describe these illnesses, people assumed they must be caused by something ‘evil’ like a psychic vampire. However presently there are many people who describe[..]

Psychic protection is something you should make your duty to understand and practice. Many people are just stunned at how quickly their entire lives have changed from first realizing that they were under a vicious attack to then learning how to alter the attack with the right form of psychic protection. While you can find lots of information littered around the internet about encasing yourself in light there are many aspects of this which does not work and there is a reason why. Many teachers will tell you what to do but not fully explain the anatomy of a psychic attack. For many people in order to get something to work they need to know why it works. Without knowing why something works[..]

Are you looking to get psychic advice? Have you spent a bit of time searching through the different available online psychics and services to try to find the RIGHT network for you? If you are anything like I was when I first found myself interested in psychic abilities (and readers) close to 18 years ago, the simple truth is that you can spend HOURS, if not days....simply hunting around for the "right" psychic consultant, or type of reader for your personality. Want to know the truth? I actually found that to be a complete WASTE of time! And today.....it's even worse, because there are simply so many different networks, services and individual intuitive's to choose from, it simply makes[..]
