How to Become Psychic: 4 Essential Steps

Learning how to become psychic is more than just meditating and developing your clairs (though those things are important).

To develop your gifts to their full potential and help others, you also need to have the right mindset. That’s why I’m sharing my four essential steps that will help you embrace and develop your intuitive gifts so you can start living your purpose!

how to become psychic, 4 essential steps

1. Let Go of Fear

One of the main things that holds people back from developing their intuitive gifts is fear. But as Jack Canfield wisely said:

Everything you want is on the other side of fear.

Maybe you’re afraid that you’re not psychically “good enough”, or maybe you are afraid that you’ll tap into negative energy (you won’t).

Whatever your fear is, the best way to overcome it is to jump right in.

That means…

Even if you’re scared, practice using your intuitive gifts.

  • Ask a friend if you can give her a practice reading.
  • Break out the old family photos and read the energy of the ancestors you never met.
  • Grab a friend and try an aura reading exercise (it’s super fun, I promise!)

Fear stops a lot of people from learning how to become psychic, but it doesn’t have to stop you.

There are so many people you could help by embracing your natural intuitive abilities and coming out of the psychic closet. So, to jump-start your journey commit to practicing one of these psychic development exercises 3-4 times per week to strengthen your gifts.

It gets easier with practice, I promise!

Practice is key in learning how to become psychic.

But what if I give a bad reading?

When you first start giving readings, it’s normal to have moments of insecurity and doubt. We all experience this at one time or another throughout our journey, so don’t worry.

You are right where you belong.

If you’re struggling with doubt, spend some time connecting with your heart via meditation, yoga or journaling. Then, get back on the horse and give another reading!

The more you practice, the more confident you will be using your gifts.

Tip: Spend 15-minutes in meditation before giving a reading to raise your vibration, connect with your Higher Self, and get centered. It will help open you up and allow energy to flow more freely.

2. Learn to Trust

 

A big part of learning how to become psychic is to embrace and trust the process.

After all, your intuitive gifts are a natural part of you. And with the right guidance, you will be able to reconnect with a beautiful part of yourself that you’ve been out of touch with for so long!

The more you use your intuition, the easier it will be for you to trust it.

To get started, tune into your intuition whenever you need to make a decision. Start small. What should I make for dinner? Where should I park my car? 

Then, follow those intuitive nudges and keep a record of them. Within two weeks, you’ll see just how often your intuition is spot on!

3. Work for the Highest Good of Others

Want to know a psychic development tip that will change everything?

I thought you might. :)

Next time you feel fear or doubt, forget about your physical self for a moment and remember that you are a spiritual being.

Your intuition offers you guidance to live a more joyful life.

So, if you decide to use your gifts to give readings to others, connect with your heart and work from a place of love. It makes all the difference!

Once I realized that my “job” as a psychic medium is to work for the highest and best good of others, I gained so much confidence!

Your “job” is not to:

  • Tell people what to do.
  • Tell the client what they want to hear instead of what you intuitively feel.
  • Make decisions for the client.

When doubt creeps into a reading…

Let’s pretend Sally comes to you for a reading. She hates her job and asks you what a good career path might be.

You immediately sense teaching, but Sally is surprised. She never considered teaching before, and it’s not what she expected to hear.

Ugh, now you begin to doubt yourself!

But…

This is when you need to remember that you’ve set a loving intention for the reading. Trust the process. It’s not about being right or wrong — it’s about Sally’s highest and best good. That perspective changes everything, right?

Take a deep breath. Then, ask your intuition for more clarity, like… why is teaching a good fit?

Gather up all of those good, loving details and share them.

Sally may have an “aha” moment and get excited about teaching! And if she doesn’t, that’s okay, too. You’ve given her a message for her highest good. It’s up to her now to choose to act on it or not because she has free will.

4. Keep Your Vibe High

 

You are working with energy, and it’s super important to keep your vibration high.

When you do, you will attract people that enjoy and appreciate the readings you give. You will also inspire and empower those people with your intuitive gifts so they can life their best life!

Does that sound amazing? It is!

So:

  • If something doesn’t resonate in a reading, don’t let it rattle you. Trust… the information may make sense later on.
  • Don’t spend time trying to convince nonbelievers. Use your energy in positive ways to spread love and empower those who want it.
  • Don’t take it personally if someone says your intuition goes against their beliefs. You do you.
  • As you are discovering how to become psychic, don’t ever feel like you have to “prove” yourself. These gifts are a natural and beautiful part of you. Embrace them.

Oh, and like my grandma always said, “a thick skin is a gift from God!”
