Are you curious about connecting with a loved one who has passed? Or perhaps you're seeking guidance and clarity about your life path? A psychic medium reading or energy session can be a powerful experience, offering insights, healing, and a sense of connection. To make the most of your session, it's important to prepare yourself. Here's a comprehensive guide to help you get ready:
Understanding the Difference: Psychic Medium vs. Energy Session
Before diving into the preparation, let's clarify the distinction between a psychic medium reading and an energy session:
Psychic Medium Reading: This involves a gifted individual (the medium) connecting with spirits or entities in the afterlife to deliver messages, guidance, or validation to the client. The focus is on communicating with those who have passed on.
Energy Session: This encompasses various practices like Reiki, energy healing, or chakra balancing. These sessions aim to clear energetic blockages, promote healing, and restore balance within the client's energy field. The focus is on the client's personal energy and well-being.
Setting Your Intentions: The Foundation for a Meaningful Experience
The most crucial step in preparing for either a psychic medium reading or an energy session is setting clear intentions. Your intentions act as a compass, guiding the session and helping you receive the most relevant and beneficial information.
For a Psychic Medium Reading:
Who are you hoping to connect with?
What specific questions do you have for them?
What kind of message or validation are you seeking?
For an Energy Session:
What areas of your life need healing or attention? (e.g., physical pain, emotional blocks, stress)
What do you hope to achieve from the session? (e.g., pain relief, increased energy, emotional release)
Are there any specific issues you'd like to address?
Write down your intentions in a journal. This process helps to clarify your thoughts and focus your energy. Be open to receiving messages or outcomes that you may not have specifically intended. The universe often works in mysterious ways. As Michelle G. says, setting an intention helps Spirit and your energy meet you exactly where you’re meant to be.
Preparing Your Mind and Body: Creating a Receptive State
A calm and centered mind and body are essential for a successful session. Here are some techniques to help you prepare:
Meditation: Even a short meditation session before your reading can help quiet your mind, reduce anxiety, and enhance your receptivity. Focus on your breath and visualize yourself surrounded by a protective and loving light.
Relaxing Bath or Shower: A warm bath or shower with Epsom salts or calming essential oils like lavender can help you relax and release any tension.
Hydration: Drink plenty of water before your session. It's also important to hydrate well the day before, the day of, and the day after your session. Spirit can draw upon your energy, and readings can be emotionally taxing, so this will help keep you grounded and prevent exhaustion. You may also want to add electrolytes to your water.
Rest: Ensure you are well-rested. Being tired can make it harder to focus and be receptive.
Journaling: Writing down your thoughts and feelings before the session can help you to clear your mind and identify any specific areas you want to address.
Choosing the Right Practitioner: Trusting Your Intuition
Selecting a qualified and ethical practitioner is crucial for a positive experience. Here are some tips:
Research: Read reviews, testimonials, and check the practitioner's credentials or experience.
Trust Your Intuition: Choose someone you feel drawn to and comfortable with. This also means they pass your vibe check; you relate to them and feel like you already know them. Checking out their social media pages can help you get an idea of who they are and how they fit into your own energy.
Ask Questions: Don't hesitate to ask the practitioner about their methods, experience, and what to expect during the session.
Ethics: Ensure the practitioner adheres to a code of ethics and maintains confidentiality. All sessions should be private, confidential, and held in a judgment-free space.
During the Session: Being Open and Present
During the reading or energy session, it's important to be open, present, and receptive. Here are some tips:
Relax and Breathe: Take deep, slow breaths to help you stay grounded and centered.
Be Open-Minded: Try to release any preconceived notions or expectations.
Trust the Process: Allow the practitioner to guide you and trust that you will receive the information or healing that is most beneficial for you. Remember, as Michelle G. says, Spirit often brings through exactly what you need to hear—whether it’s clarity, validation, or gentle nudges toward your highest path.
Communicate: If you don't understand something, ask for clarification. If you feel uncomfortable, let the practitioner know.
Take Notes: You may want to take notes during or immediately after the session to help you remember key insights or messages.
After the Session: Integration and Reflection
The process of a reading or energy session doesn't end when the session is over. It's important to take time to integrate the experience and reflect on any insights or messages you received.
Journaling: Write down your experiences, feelings, and any messages or insights you received. Michelle G. recommends journaling to help you process insights, and suggests reflecting on any "aha" moments, as they often deepen with time. She also provides these journaling prompts:
What is one message or insight from today that truly resonated with me?
How can I integrate what I learned into my daily life?
If you could hug the version of you who was struggling, what would you tell them?
Reflection: Take some time to reflect on how the session has impacted you and how you can integrate any new information into your life. Pay attention to any repeating numbers, meaningful songs, dreams, or other little synchronicities – they are confirming what was discussed in your session.
Self-Care: Be gentle with yourself and practice self-care. You may feel tired or emotionally vulnerable after a session. Michelle G. emphasizes that taking care of your mind, body, and spirit after a session is just as important as the session itself. Here are her recommendations:
Hydrate: Drink plenty of water—this helps your energy flow freely and keeps you grounded. It's also important to continue hydrating the day after your session.
Ground Yourself: Take a walk in nature, eat something nourishing, or do some deep breathing to anchor yourself.
Listen to your body: Your body may tell you what it needs after a session. For example, if you're craving chocolate, you may need magnesium; if you're craving salt, you may need sodium.
Be gentle with yourself: You just experienced a lot of emotions and energetic releases, so it's important to be kind and patient with yourself. This means allowing yourself time and space to process everything without judgment. It's okay to feel however you feel, and there's no need to rush the process. For example, this might mean not being too hard on yourself and allowing yourself a day to relax, watch TV, and rest, or if you have to work, to take it easy and not take on any extra tasks.
Follow-Up: If you have any questions or need further clarification, don't hesitate to contact your practitioner.
In conclusion, preparing for a psychic medium reading or energy session involves a multifaceted approach. By understanding the type of session you're undertaking, setting clear intentions, preparing your mind and body, choosing a qualified practitioner, being open during the session, and practicing self-care afterward, you can pave the way for a truly transformative and meaningful experience. Remember that the journey of self-discovery and connection is a personal one, and taking the time to prepare can significantly enhance your ability to unlock its full potential.
