What Are the Three Ways to Learn Clairvoyance?

By Luke Hounsome

Can anyone learn clairvoyance? The truth is that to a certain extent, yes! What exactly is clairvoyance, and what does it mean to try to learn it? This is something that you might want to think about!

Part of the confusion comes from the fact that the term 'clairvoyance' has several different means, depending on who you ask. The most common definitions are remote viewing (being able to see things that are happening far away without the use of technology or the five human senses), or precognition (being able to see events happening in the future). At its most basic level, however, clairvoyance simply means being able to know information about a person, object, location, or event without using any of your five senses. Think of clairvoyance as a sixth sense.

True, some people do have extraordinary clairvoyant abilities, such as the ability to see, hear, feel, smell, or even taste something far away, or even to know things about the past or future that they couldnt possibly know through any other means. No one really know how this works. Science has not been able to document or explain these abilities. Although there are dozens of metaphysical explanations of these psychic abilities, no particular one has emerged as the dominant belief, and some explanations are even contradictory. One common element, however, seems to cut across all these different theories: people with extraordinary psychic abilities are simply born that way.

What a lot of people don't seem to understand is that you cannot train yourself to see the future, but you can develop your ability to hone your sixth sense.

All people have a certain degree of clairvoyant sixth sense. This often manifests as an indescribable 'hunch' or 'feeling' that people can't logically explain. You may hear people say, for example, 'I've got a bad feeling about this,' or 'I don't know why, but I've got a feeling we can trust him.' Unfortunately, many people ignore their sixth sense, deferring to logic or emotion rather than their gut instinct.

Science, to a certain degree, even acknowledges the existence and validity of hunches and instincts. Scientists claim, however, that there is nothing supernatural, paranormal, or psychic about this ability. Psychologists, for example, argue that this phenomenon is merely your subconscious mind picking up on little details, hints, and signals that your conscious mind is too busy to notice. Your subconscious mind then translates this information into emotions to help guide you"the proverbial 'feeling' mentioned earlier. Therefore, in order to develop your sixth sense, you have to learn to use and trust your subconscious mind.

Whether you believe in science or in the mystical existence of a sixth sense, you'll find that you can still take advantage of this concept. What you need to learn is that no matter what you believe, you can train your perception and that you can sharpen it a great deal. Just look at these three methods.

1. Improve Your Perception

First, think about all the times that you go through life in a half-daze. You are so intently concentrated on the tasks that you are working on that you block out everything else. The issue is that these little details are very important and you need to think about what your subconscious mind is really seeing and sending you messages about. The more detail that you can put into it, the better off you are going to be when it comes to honing your clairvoyant sit sense.

This takes practice, however. There are a few things you can do to try to increase your perception. First, slow down a bit. Try to relax, clam yourself, and move at a more leisurely pace in your daily activities. Second, remove distractions designed to occupy your senses. For example, instead of listening to the radio in the car while driving, drive in silence. With nothing else to occupy your senses and thoughts, you'll become more aware of the world around you"the weather, the neighborhood you're driving in, and that car behind you moving into your blind spot.

Finally, occasionally do a 'mini-meditation'. This consists of closing your eyes, taking a deep breath, and forcing yourself to relax. When you open your eyes again, you'll be more aware of your surroundings. This only takes a few seconds, but you'll be surprised by the difference it makes.

2. Meditate

Try to meditate at least 30 minutes a day. The idea behind meditation is to occupy and clear your conscious mind, and let your subconscious mind rise to the surface to do its work and communicate with your conscious mind People who meditate report feeling relaxed and refreshed when they are done.

However, finding the time to meditate and to make sure that you are going to be getting the results that you need can be difficult. Just when you have everything set up the way that you want it to be, you'll discover that you need to get up and do some cooking or that there is a call that you need to make. When you want to get out of the same cycle of thoughts that you have been, remember that you can use a focus and a mantra.

A focus is simply something that you can use to keep your sense working for you instead of against you. If you are sitting in silence, you might find that every sound or movement out of the corner of your eye makes you startle. Instead, put a candle in front of you and watch the light dance. The flickering will keep your eyes engaged while your brain can float away and think of other things.

Second, our conscious mind, our thoughts, never shuts down"we're always thinking about something. Rather than try to silence it, occupy and distract it with a mantra. A mantra is phrase, poem, or prayer that you repeat over and over again in your head just to occupy your mind. It can be anything"a prayer, a favorite poem, even song lyrics"just as long as you know it by heart and can recite it with much thought. Some people pray the rosary as they meditate"the endless string of memorized Hail Marys occupies their conscious mind perfectly.

3. Trust Your Instincts

At the end of the day, you are not getting very far if you do not trust yourself. Don't doubt what you see or feel and make sure that you don't dismiss your feelings as being the product of an overactive imagination. Remember that you get hunches and feelings for a reason and that your subconscious mind is definitely trying to tell you something. What does your subconscious mind want to let you know?

At first, this may be difficult. Over time, however, the more you listen to and trust your instincts, the more confidence you will gain in them. Your clairvoyant sixth sense will grow stronger, and it will be easier for you to trust it. - 30535
