Sam,

You wrote in your response:

i felt like i had contact when i didnt know anybetter, but like you said i didn't know anybetter

In other words while you were not consciously aware of seeking spirit contact, it worked quite well. Once you began to think about doing it fear and self doubt entered your consciousness, and your abilities to communicate were then very effectively blocked.

This is exactly to what I was referring when I told another member on this board that genuine psychic information comes through our own unconscious mind. Once we begin to think and worry ourselves about what we are intending to do in communicating with spirits our mental focus gets shifted towards our conscious, and away from our unconscious where our psychic abilities lie.

All the meditation and other psychic exercises which help us to develop our abilities in order to make a spirit contact are at their core methods of at least temporarily shifting back that focus once more towards our unconscious mind (and temporarily away from our focus on the outer physical world). Our inner psychic world can only therefore be properly accessed or reached through our unconscious, rather than through our conscious mind? That is what these psychic exercises are for.

In psychic development, as with developing any other valuable skills in life, always apply the "KISS" PRINCIPLE.

Keep It Simple Silly

What this basically means is that it is frequently much more efficient to do a simple exercise regularly on a daily basis, than to try doing some much more advanced techniques once or twice a month and thereby overpowering yourself to the point where you might simply give up.

Unless you are already fairly accomplished at allowing your mind to still itself, try meditating for a maximum of 5 minutes at the same time every day, then gradually work up to an absolute maximum of 20 - 30 minutes tops. Even after you have experienced some success in doing this, there will be days when you are simply not in the mood or are not feeling particularly well. Do not take this as a sign that you will never be able to meditate again, but instead as a temporary setback which will eventually pass as long as you you do not lose patience with yourself when this almost inevitably happens (as it will from time to time).

Hey, we are all on your side and you are not in any way imposing by asking these important questions concerning your psychic development. If I inadvertently gave you such an idea, then I must sincerely apologise for doing so.

EOT

In meditation we set a purpose for the sitting. The purpose here is spirit guide contact, so that is our mental focus, without expectations.

Sit up in the chair so the spine is straight. This allows all energies to flow.

Do the usual quieting of the body (some use visualization, breathing, or any technique that works for you) Breathe deeply into the diaphram, gently, but deeply seeing it as a balloon on the end of a stick and as you release the air (squeezing the balloon) you release all negativity from the body.

I highly recommend music playing because it tends to give the mind something to hear rather than outside noises. I use soft classical (I actually have a CD called romantic songs that fits the bill.

Visualization is important in meditation and I 'see' a white light entering from the crown flowing through the body bringing warmth and cleansing throughout the body...see it enter the head releasing the stress, down the neck and shoulder, down the spine, down the front, across the hips and down the legs exiting out the feet. It helps the body continue the relaxing posture, even lowering the shoulders' tensions.

Using the forehead as the place where visualization occurs - see a scene from nature. This is unique to each meditator. Pick a place you know of, or even one that you can envision without having seen it for real. Within the scene place a symbol (a flower in a flower garden, a bush in a waterfall grove, a peak in the mountains, a bird in a tree, etc.) on which you are going to connect/attune with your own personal guide. Place a bench or chair on which the guide can sit within the scene you are producing. This is a personal exercise, so choose what you will come back to time and again.

(I have found for the meditator to actually attune it is a practice in consistency and constantcy. Meet at the same time, with the same trappings so that the spirit guide can know your intent and purpose. This is where some people find a good meditation circle with others to be very helpful in their journey. Giving them your attention randomly is not conducive to the exercise. Your guide will then know your intent.)

Relax in your place of peace and watch for the change in vibration when the spirit guide joins you. Be sure to be alert to their presence and always ask questions. Do not sit and expect the guide to do all the work. Tell them what you can sense, then talk to them like a friend/partner of the work.

God bless, J
