The Link Between Meditation and Psychic Development

The Link Between Meditation and Psychic Development by Chanda Parkinson

There is no denying the rich, magickal array of information and feedback available to us when our psychic gifts are activated and responsive. We can accept the universal truth that every one of us has psychic and spiritual gifts. However, our psychic receiving mechanisms are hardwired a bit differently. What I may see and feel you might hear and know within. There is no best or perfect combination of psychic abilities. We all receive beautifully in our own unique way. If you dedicate yourself to a spiritual practice with consistency, diligent attention, discipline, and incorporate plenty of room for reflection, your psychic powers will grow. 

What is happening behind the scenes when we are accessing data from the invisible field of intelligence we all have access to? Whether it is number patterns, symbols, flashes of insight, feelings, an inner knowing, spirit messages, or something else entirely, the spirit realm responds most willingly to a calm, neutral, open vessel. When we are out of alignment, stressed, tense, or tired there is present an atmosphere of constriction. Establishing a solid link to spirit messages and information can be thwarted. Energy in the form of psychic information doesn’t easily flow in a restricted environment. The ideal environment is created through the alignment of our mind, heart, etheric, and physical body. Creating the right conditions for that ideal environment allows our natural psychic abilities to successfully emerge.  

We are multi-sensory beings. When our senses, including our sixth sense, along with our body’s biorhythms are in harmony, we hit a sweet spot of flow our natural psychic gifts love. Therein the container is created to allow for messages, insights, information, or needed healing to occur. One universal way to achieve this coordinated effort is through meditation. 

Discovering the link between psychic abilities and meditation came to me quite accidentally in my mid-twenties. After engaging in meditative practices for the purpose of achieving astral travel (an out of body experience), I noticed I was instead beginning to sense the presence of spirits and hearing voices that weren’t mine. I began receiving unusual guidance in the form of song lyrics and moving images, which played out on the inner screen of my mind like a movie. It took me some time to realize I had awakened my own psychic gifts. The messages, scenes and information were relevant to what was happening in my life, and helped me solve problems. The link between meditation and awakening my psychic gifts was undeniable.  

You do not need to dedicate hours in silence to be effective at meditation. In addition, there is not one single meditation technique or practice that is best or more helpful than another. It really is whatever you want to create. Modern spirituality has made it incredibly convenient to include and incorporate a variety of meditation styles into daily life. We have a multitude of wonderful musicians on YouTube and many meditation apps. to thank for that. If you already have a meditation practice, you are solid. For others, no need to be intimidated by what can be an incredibly simple addition to your already established self-care routines.  

Here are 5 action steps to support you in creating a successful meditation routine: 

  1. Set reasonable expectations based on your schedule and lifestyle. Begin by setting aside five minutes a day, preferably at the beginning or middle of the day. Avoid bedtime, so you know you will be able to stay awake. You may wish to increase the time for meditation exponentially.
  1. Research different types of meditation. There is a plethora! There are breathing meditations, visualizations, silent meditations, moving meditations, or you can create your own. Walking, yoga, house cleaning, sitting at a park studying the trees or watching the clouds go by, or grooming your pet, can all be meditation. There is no one right way to meditate. Take time to discover which works best for you.
  1. Try out different locations. Do you prefer a dark or brightly lit room? All rooms have a vibe. Try them each to see which is going to be a better fit. Determine what you need to be comfortable.
  1. Tell others in your home you are beginning a meditation routine. Remind them before you begin your meditation you need privacy. Invite their quiet, care, and support.
  1. Have something handy to record what you experienced during meditation. Sometimes visual images can occur, feelings, colors, a message, or other spontaneous phenomena. You’ll want to keep track in a journal or voice recorded memo for later review.

Here are three ways to know your psychic abilities are beginning to open: 

  1. You feel more confident making decisions in your life. When your psychic receiver is on, you will receive oftentimes instantaneous and ongoing insights you can implement immediately. Doing so reinforces and strengthens your gifts.
  1. Your relationships improve. Amplifying your psychic gifts can produce deeper levels of sensitivity, compassion, and empathy. This is a bonus side effect and an important one!
  1. You feel more blissful. Unleashing your own psychic powers can bring deep contentment and happiness, as if you have somehow unlocked the secrets to the universe. It truly is a joy journey.

You are on your way to establishing a meditation routine that works for you. This is the first step in a lifelong journey of opening your own psychic and spiritual gifts.
