Clairvoyant Exercises and Tips (1-10)
Clairvoyant exercises and tips. Opening your third eye open and developing clairvoyance doesn’t have to be easier said than done.
And, since this is one of my most requested topics, I put together this mega-list to get the intuitive ball rolling. (Yes, I was that kid in class with a notebook full of study guides, why do you ask?)
Here are all my proven tips and exercises to increase psychic vision (#4 is essential for beginners).
1. Visualization exercise
Visualization strengthens and fine-tunes your third eye. There are countless ways to do this exercise, but I LOVE using flowers (they’re pretty and smell good!)
To get started, place a flower in front of you and study it for a little while. Next, close your eyes and imagine the flower in as much detail as you can. Let the color, shape, size, etc. flood your mind. This clairvoyant exercise will strengthen your psychic sight.
- Here’s a post that explains how to start visualizing in detail.
2. Daydream
Head back to your childhood days and let your logical mind check out for a while. Then, relax, close your eyes, and focus on your third eye chakra (between your eyebrows). Next, ask your Spirit Guides to show you beautiful, peaceful images.
Don’t try to control what you see; instead, let your mind wander, and allow your Guides to connect with you via clairvoyance.
3. Connect with your Spirit Guides
Did you know that you have a whole team of Spirit Guides dedicated to your spiritual development, and ready to help you connect with your natural psychic ability?
Obviously it’s easier to ask your Spirit Guides to show you beautiful images if you’re on a talking basis. But if you’ve never connected with your Guides, don’t worry — it’s easier than you think! In fact, this is one of the easiest (yet powerful) clairvoyant exercises you’ll ever learn.
Start by checking in with your Spirit Guides throughout the day. For example, if you need intuitive guidance or help making a decision, ask your Guides for help. (Don’t worry, they can hear you.)
Then, notice any intuitive nudges you feel, or images that come to mind through your clairvoyance.
Tip: Learn how to talk with your guides, and learn their names.
4. Set an intention
Your Spirit Guides want to help you strengthen clairvoyance. That’s because they communicate with you through your intuitive gifts… clairvoyance, clairaudience, clairsentience, and claircognizance. So, don’t be shy about asking them for help.
Start by setting the intention that you want guidance from your Spirit Guides and voila! Once you’ve set the intention, be on the lookout for signs, they’ll be everywhere!
5. Practice seeing auras
Everyone has the ability to see energy, and can learn to see auras (the energy around living things). So it goes without saying that this is a way to increase psychic clairvoyance.
To get started seeing auras, have a friend stand in front of a plain colored wall. Then, step back about eight feet. (You should be able to see your friend’s shoes and head without looking up or down.)
Next, focus on your friend’s forehead (third eye area). Imagine you are looking through her, at the wall behind. You will start to notice the aura layer around the head.
6. Add meditation to your daily routine
Mediation is one of the most important clairvoyant exercises you’ll practice. It’s great because it connects you with your Higher Self (your “spiritual” self), grounds you, and raises your vibration, allowing you to access all the psychic goodness in the universe!
It also helps you clear your mind of clutter and connect with your inner knowing and gut feelings.
- Read my meditation guide (I promise, it’s easy)
7. Don’t forget to journal
Once you connect with your Higher Self and Spirit Guides, I can promise that you’ll have a few things you want to jot down.
I’ve said before that journaling is the peanut butter to meditation’s chocolate, and I’m not wavering on my stance. Plus, it helps you get more connected with your intuitive gifts, including clairvoyance.
Here are some of my fav journaling prompts to develop your intuitive abilities and connect with your psychic gifts:
- In my soul, why do I feel called to develop my intuitive gifts?
- What positive message does my Higher Self have for me about my psychic development?
- How do I feel if I imagine my clairvoyance is improving?
- What is the next step I should take in my psychic development journey?
- In what positive way(s) will my life be impacted when I start living the intuitive life I am meant to live?
- When is a time that my intuition helped me?
If you’re still wondering what to say once your pen meets paper, try these journaling prompts.
8. Practice giving readings
Here’s the thing… you can read about psychic development all day, but at some point you have to get out there and give some readings.
Yes, it’s a little scary at first, but giving readings to family members, friends, and friends of friends is one of the best ways to strengthen intuition. (Just be sure to get their permission first.)
9. Get a fluorite crystal
Fluorite activates your third eye and provides you with psychic protection (plus, it’s gorgeous). To get all the benefits of fluorite, meditate with it nearby, wear it as jewelry, or sleep with it near your pillow.
Tip: I get my fluorite here* because it’s of awesome quality, and has a super high vibe!
10. Use rosemary essential oil on your third eye chakra
I’m a big believer in the power of essential oils for almost everything, including psychic development. To strengthen clairvoyance with rosemary oil:
- Rub a tiny drop on your third eye chakra (between your eyebrows). Be careful not to get any in your eyes!
- Now, set the intention that you want to develop clairvoyance.
- Then, meditate while enjoying the aroma of the oil.
Tip: If you prefer, meditate with rosemary essential oil in your diffuser for a powerful clairvoyant meditation!

11. Eat high-vibrational foods
It’s true, the food you eat affects your vibration! Don’t worry, though, that doesn’t mean you have to start pretending to like leafy greens.
But, adding high vibration foods to your diet, like fresh fruit and dark, organic chocolate (yes, really!) raises your vibe and strengthens your aura. Plus, your body will feel better, which will make it easier to develop your psychic abilities.

12. Telepathy clairvoyant exercise
This is so much fun, and it develops mental telepathy and psychic sight!
In your mind, hold the image of a friend. See her freckles, smile, and messy bun. Then, in your mind, ask her to contact you!
13. Activate your third eye
Your third eye (where you see clairvoyant visions) is like a muscle — the more you use it, the stronger it gets. “Waking up” your psychic eye is super easy.
- First, place your index finger on your third eye.
- Then, gently tap the area a few times and imagine it opening.
Tip: It’s normal to feel a tingling sensation between your eyebrows during this exercise. It means your clairvoyance is opening up!
14. Take a class or course
This was critical for me when I first started developing my psychic abilities. In fact, during one class, I learned about my Spirit Guides, which changed everything!
Learning from a trusted mentor gives you a safe place to strengthen your intuitive gifts, or mediumship.
- Tip: I invite you to learn about my Beginner’s Guide to Clairvoyance, which makes it fun and easy to learn with me.
15. Meditate with a crystal on your third eye
It doesn’t get any easier than this! Get comfy, then, place any of the following crystals on your third eye as you meditate for an intuitive boost. If you prefer, envision your clairvoyance expanding instead of meditating.
- Amethyst
- Labradorite
- Lapis Lazuli
- Aquamarine
- Opal
- Fluorite
- Tektite
- Celestite
- Tiger’s Eye
- Moonstone
- Sugilite
- Ulexite
Tip: Lapis lazuli or clear quarts to encourage your third eye chakra to open and balance.
16. Zener cards clairvoyant exercise
Use Zener cards (like the ones they used in Ghostbusters) to practice sending telepathic images to a friend, while developing clairvoyance and having fun. (It’s like mental texting!)
- First, grab a pack of Zener cards and call your friend. (Zener cards are those with the square, circle, star, and wavy lines on them.)
- Next, select a card and look at it. Then, close your eyes and imagine the shape in your mind.
- Now, imagine psychically sending the image to your friend’s mind. If you’d like, imagine there are waves of energy sending the image.
- Then, ask your friend what image they received.
When you are done, switch off. This time, you receive the images that your friend sends.
- First, take some deep breaths, and focus on your third eye area.
- Now, allow yourself to receive whatever image comes to mind. Don’t second-guess yourself. Relax and let the image of a circle, square, square, plus sign, or wavy lines to form in your mind.
- Let yourself go with the flow during the exercise. This is not the time to wonder if you’re really clairvoyant (you are!)
17. Keep a dream journal
Clairvoyant images and messages often come through in our dreams. For this reason, keeping a dream journal and pen near your bed can be handy. After a while, you might even start seeing patterns or symbols in your dreams! For more, read how to develop psychic sight while you sleep.
18. Learn to turn your intuitive gifts on and off
Once you start developing clairvoyance, you’ll want to learn how to manage it. This way you’re not overwhelmed by intuitive images.
- Prior to using any of the exercises in this post, imagine lighting a candle in your mind.
- Now, invite your Spirit Guides in, and imagine your gifts turning ON. Lighting the candle in your mind’s eye symbolizes that you are open to receiving intuitive information.
- Once you are done practicing, imagine blowing out the candle in your mind. Then, thank your spiritual helpers for their divine support. This will help you control your gifts.
19. Release expectations
Take the pressure off yourself, and forget everything you’ve ever seen about psychic abilities in the movies.
Instead, allow yourself to experience clairvoyance in whatever way it comes to you. It might be a vision that plays out like a movie in your mind, a still image, or something unique to you!
20. Focus on your third eye
Your third eye is connected to the pineal gland, and is where you will see clairvoyant images and visions.
So, as your psychic abilities increase, relax and trust the intuitive images that come to your mind.
Do meditations that activate your psychic seeing, place crystals on your third eye, and even give it some taps. By using the tips on this page, your clairvoyance will get stronger!
Bonus Clairvoyant Exercises
21. Be at one with nature
Not only does being with Mother Nature ground you, it also increases clairvoyant abilities and strengthens extrasensory perception.
To connect with your intuition, go for a walk or meditate outside. It will raise your vibration and psychic power.
22. Learn psychic ‘symbols’
As you develop clairvoyant abilities, you may have visions that are symbolic rather than literal.
For example, you could have a vision of your sister walking down the aisle… or you might see something that symbolizes a wedding — such as white doves.
To connect with your psychic energy:
- Close your eyes and take a cleansing breath.
- Imagine you are connected with your natural psychic gifts, and feel confident in your intuition.
- Now, think about the emotion of joy. As you do, focus your attention on your third eye (the area between your eyebrows).
- Relax, and allow joyful images to come to mind. What do you see? A color or a pretty sunset? There are no wrong answers — whatever symbolizes joy to you is perfect!
- Spend about a minute doing the exercise, and really allow the feeling of joy to flood your mind. When you are done, blow into the palms of your hands to ground yourself.
Practice this intuitive exercise as often as you’d like to unlock and strengthen clairvoyance. Then, write down your impressions in a journal for an awesome keepsake!
Tip: As your ability increases, you will develop a bond with your Spirit Guides, and start seeing more and more images!
23. Use tarot cards to develop clairvoyancy
Tarot cards are not only OMG-gorgeous, using them is also a powerful way to develop clairvoyance.
To boost your psychic sight with tarot:
Choose a tarot deck that you love and set aside the card meanings that came with it (yes, seriously!) Now, use your intuition to create or interpret your OWN meanings for the cards.
With this easy clairvoyant exercise, all you need to do is spend some time with each card, then, write down what you sense about it in a notebook!
24. Keep your energetic vibe high
No, this does not mean drinking six cups of coffee a day (though that would be yummy!) It means having a high energetic vibration.
Having a high vibe is important for strengthening clairvoyant abilities, and makes unlocking your gifts much easier. Plus, a high vibration means that you will be a happier person!
