Psychic and medium Liz Winter believes all of us are born with the gift to communicate with those on the other side…but as with any skill practice, she says, makes perfect.
The client who sat in front of me looked at rather dubiously. ’What do you mean, I could be a medium?’ she asked. Carol had just finished describing how her late husband had visited her in her dreams and that on occasion, she distinctly heard his voice call her name. She also described other encounters with loved ones who had passed on. Carol however, did not believe that she could possibly be a medium. Sound familiar to you?
I believe we are all born with the ability to encounter and communicate with those who dwell on the other side. It certainly isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, but then neither is playing the guitar or running marathons. We can all choose to develop our various inner talents and often it is simply the belief that we ‘can’t’ or the fear that we will fail that stops us. For some of us, like Carol, mediumship comes easily but I believe it is a gift we all possess. Like any skill it takes practice and patience.
The fear factor around mediumship encompasses stories of ghosts, being possessed and losing the plot, often inspired by B grade movies – which have certainly lost their plot! Whilst spiritual protection is an important part of medium development, it’s something that is easily learned.
The most amazing aspect to mediumship is the healing and the comfort that it can bring to those grieving for their loved ones who have passed over. For some of us it’s a calling, so if you feel compelled to develop your inner medium, my advice is to allow your passion to override any self-doubt.
How to develop your mediumship skills
My advice is to firstly do your homework. Read, research, observe mediums in action via the web or perhaps go to a live show in your area. Get a feel for what it’s all about, seek out recommendations of reputable mediums and perhaps book in for a reading.
Developing your inner medium is best done with a mentor and/or a group setting. Putting on a scarf and shining up your crystal ball may end up being a dull experience on your own.
If, after some research, you feel you would like to go ahead to develop your skills, see what courses are available. Ask your loved ones in Spirit to guide you to the right teacher. I love the saying ‘when the student is ready the teacher appears’.
