Mediumship has a long and rich history going as far back as the nineteenth century. At that time there were several popular ways of making contact with loved ones. Table tipping, tapping, and other means were used in communication. Of course, human beings from the beginning of time have always had ways of contacting their loved ones and it is not new. Indigenous cultures all over the world have ceremonies and rituals to honor and communicate with those who have crossed over.
Today it is much more common to use direct communication with those who have crossed over; meaning that the Medium uses their body and mind to receive the information. Mediums use their highly sensitive nature to connect and decipher what it is your loved ones have to say. For myself, it can be a bit like playing the game Charades where I have to figure out exactly what they mean. For example, if a spirit is telling me that the hummingbird needs to fly I must use all my senses to understand what they are talking about so I can relay it to the client. Feeling more deeply into that I would be able to gather more information through my senses and say that they are referring to a person that they nicknamed hummingbird and that that person needs to let go or pursue something that would require them to be vulnerable.
This is how I work and so I can only speak of my own experience as a Medium.
A psychic reading is when a highly sensitive person gathers information from Spirit to help you in your life. I define Spirit as Creator as well as my spirit guides and the client's spirit guides. The purpose is to gain clarity, resolve an issue or just for peace of mind.
In a psychic reading with me I start by asking Spirit what it is that is the most important thing for you to know at this time, then we talk about that until the client feels complete and then I go back to Spirit and ask again. If the issue you came for doesn't come up from Spirit we will address it at the end. I always strive to make sure the client feels complete and satisfied.
If the issue can't be resolved in one sitting I would recommend the package. During those readings we can unpack more and create an action plan to make sure you are creating lasting change, and ultimately that is what I love to do for people.
Shamanism is as old as human beings and is still practiced by many indigenous people today. One thing that every person on this planet has in common is that we all have ancestors who practiced some form of Shamanism and is therefore open for all to practice. I am speaking of core Shamanic practices that are not appropriated from indigenous cultures.
Shamanism is a way of being that connects you to the Creator and understanding that the Creator lives and moves in all things. In this way, all things can be seen as relations since human beings, animals, and nature are all made by the Creator. And, since we can communicate with Creator, (which I call Spirit) all other things can be communicated with. The living energy in trees, rocks, mountains, and cats can all be conversed with.
Why would anyone want to? Nature and animal spirits can act as guides and healers. Shamanic practitoners work very closely with their guides, and it is in fact the guides that do all the healing work. The practitioner is the conduit for the spirits to work through. This is called being the "Hollow Bone."
Being in tune with Spirit and nature is empowering and beneficial for both the practitioner and the Earth. Practitioners share a deep bond with the Earth and all Her creatures and work in reciprocity. We give positive energy in the form of ritual or ceremony as a way to thank the Earth for all she does for us.
Shamanism has many healing modalities that rely on the skill of the practitioner and Spirit. These modalities are ways of coming back into balance in yourself. Physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual issues can all be addressed with some form of Shamanic healing. The healing always makes sure to empower the client and help resolve the issue.
If the issue can't be resolved in one sitting I would recommend the package. During that time we can unpack more and create an action plan to make sure you are creating lasting change, and ultimately that is what I love to do for people.
Animal Communication is very similar to psychic work. Both require the reader to pick up on subtle energy and translate it. Animals have thoughts and opinions, as anyone with an animal companion could tell you. Being an emapth, which is someone that can feel what others feel, is a great benefit in doing this work because it is a way to connect to the animal. Communication works in the same way as a psychic reading; I use the animals spirit and my sensitivity to create a dialog.
Depending on how open the animal is, we can discuss its health, happiness or any other concerns you may have. If the animal is too wary of strangers or has past trauma some healing may be needed so that trust can be built. Any type of animal can be communicated with.
You are energy! Everything that exists now, in the past, or in the future is energy!
Energy vibrates at certain speeds. The slower the vibration the denser the item is. Our bodies are solid and so they vibrate slower than something made of pure energy, like a spirit guide. The ability to see, feel, or hear beings that are pure spirit means that you can adjust your vibration to match theirs for a while. This is how Mediumship, Animal Communication, and Psychic readings work. Some people are born with this ability and others can work to achieve it.
In healing, when we use energy we are clearing out or restoring the body or mind in some way. The energy practitioner can manipulate energy in and around the body. This is the premise of the energy practice of Reiki. Energy work means removing negative energy in the body or mind and then filling that space back up with positive healing energy. Guided meditations are fantastic for calling in healing energy for yourself. The problem is many people don't think that they can do it or that it just won't work.
First, your mind is your most important tool. Your mind creates your reality and so when you visualize something your mind is creating it. This is why guided meditations are so effective; you are creating and calling in positive, healing energy. Believe that it is that simple because it is.
Second, not believing in energy work does not affect whether it works. It may hinder it because you are blocking it but it still works.
Tai chi, Qiong, acupuncture, and all of Traditional Chinese Medicine are perfect examples of energy work. And, if they didn't work they wouldn't still be around today and practiced. ;)
