Psychic Development: Meditate!

Everyone meditates differently. Where ever you go, whomever you study under, whichever book or class you choose, there will be different instructions and types of meditations for you to try. Try as many types as you can get your hands on (or your mind in!) because you want to find what works best for you naturally. Today you'll be learning 2 types [from me]. From the rest of the time you study with [me] Spiritual Answers and Solutions .com, every time you read or hear the phrase, "Ask Yourself." or "Meditate on That.", the Ask Yourself/Meditate on That technique is what's being referred to. When you read or hear the phrase, 'Tune into your Higher Self', it's referencing the Higher Self Tune-In Meditation.

Continue your own practice of meditation. Add these into your life as ways to: 

Get Answers, Guidance and Direction from your Higher Self and to Raise your Vibration. 
If you have questions, challenges or concerns:
Get a hold of someone for help if you have questions. Contacting the Instructor & Course Questions  Click here for contact information and questions about the downloads, homework and the classes. All class questions will all be answered on Twitter at @PsychicTidbits. 
And Check with yourself to figure out what's going on, or more appropriately, what the message is. Do you think you have a block? And, blocks are not bad, at all. It's your mind helping you by bringing you whats thwarting you. "Yay! Thank You, Wonderful, Powerful Subconscious Mind!" Click here to read about and check if you have a block. Remember: A block is not something that is meant to stop you, necessarily, it's a message. Ask yourself all about it! And, of course, the best way to 'fix' it.

Special Instructions:

Use them with the proper meditation technique. These phrases are not used loosely and are not interchangeable.)

4. Absolutely no interruptions: turn off your phone, close the door, etc.
5. Keep your Body comfortable: sit up in a comfortable position, in comfortable clothes and have a blanket within reach. (There's a coolness you'll feel 'around' you when you're Higher Self comes 'down' to you. You maybe surprised in the difference in temperature [that you feel] in the room.)
6. Close your eyes
7. Turn your palms up in your lap
8. Relax your Body (just like in the recordings you've been listening to)
9. Do the Lighten Up Meditation (If you don't know it, click here to read about it. Scroll down to the bottom for the classes, sets and workbook.)

12. Alarm should go off: Hit stop button and immediately close your eyes to finish this session. 
13. End with Light the Earth Meditation
14. Write about your experience in your journal. 

(#11) 
Do the The Ask Yourself/Meditate on That Technique or Tune Into your Higher Self for five minutes only. You can add time later on. While you're training yourself: 5 Minutes Only.

The Ask Yourself/Meditate on That Technique:
It's a hazy, in-and-out, floating, hypnosisy, drifty feeling with visions and other sensations.
Say to yourself, "I open to guidance from my Higher Self." 
When you're in that still place, gently think of your subject, question, challenge, desire, whatever you put on your list of Things to Meditate On. Let your thoughts drift. You may find that you drift completely away or that you fade in and out. (This may feel a lot like a good download session you've had.) anytime you notice, gently bring your thoughts back to your focus for the sitting. Let everything flow the way it wants to flow. Your job: Be aware (somewhat) of where you go. 
That's it. It's that Simple. Quiet your mind and you'll get guidance. Always. The more you do it, the better you'll get. 

Tune into your Higher Self:
Look up into the Light, Release Control to your Higher Self and go unconscious. 
Say to yourself, "I release control to my Higher Self."
Behind closed eyelids, gently turn your eyes up. (It's as if you're looking out the middle of your forehead or, if you can turn them without any strain, looking out the very top of your head.)
Anytime your eyes move or any thoughts pop in, bring your eyes back to their focal point. (If your eyes are turned up, it is impossible to think any thoughts without your eyes moving. If your eyes move, gently bring them back.) The goal of this meditation to have absolutely no thoughts and to eventually go unconscious [into/with your Higher Self]. (This is the coolest thing ever. Seriously.) When you awake, you'll be able to feel the difference in your vibration. (Unsure if you've felt it before? No worries. With this one... There's no doubt. You will know. No question. So, look forward to it. You'll love it. [This] is that wonderful euphoria you hear about when people reach that 'state'. And, you're totally safe. It's you choosing that higher state through your Higher Self. And, that unconsciousness is kind of like being asleep except that when you get up, you'll feel the vibration difference in every cell of your body. If you're really in-tune with energy, you'll feel it all around you!)
Keep at this. You're tuning into your Higher Self and shifting your consciousness. (Think of this meditation as compounding [the raising of ] your vibration. The more you do this, the longer you'll be able to sit and the easier it will become.) It's the most important thing you can ever do. Really. If you want a Spiritual Life/Lifestyle... This is how you get it. 

Meditation Assignment:

~*~Tune into your Higher Self:
Try this technique 3 times this week and document it in your meditation journal. 

~*~The Ask Yourself/Meditate on That Technique:
1. Go back through your list from last week. Reread it and decipher any patterns, people or indecision that you found from last week. What do you want to know about them? Do you want to figure out why or just how to fix it? Maybe you love the pattern and you want to be able to replicate it. Whatever you're curious about, write it down. (This is #3 on your Journal Homework) You'll be using all the information that you've been figuring out about yourself and your life as material (topics) for each time you sit with yourself. Get into the habit of jotting stuff down (that you want to know from yourself) because after this class, there won't be anything you cannot get for or from yourself. Psychically Self Sufficient! ;)

2. Get one answer to:

a. A pattern of People or Relationships
b. Question about One Goal

3. Write about your experiences in your Meditation Journal. 

(This would be the time that you can add a new journal for all of your Higher Self and Meditation messages and answers.) Do you need another one?

Every week, the same thing. Yes. You're training your mind. You are creating habits. You're making yourself responsible for your thoughts, feelings, your well-being and your health; in all aspects of your life. If you stick to it now, you'll never have to do this again. (Note: Unless you train yourself out of the routines that you are creating now.) 
Plan on checking, reading over, making notes and/or fine tuning your goals every week. 
Once you're done with this eCourse, you can continue to revise and revisit your goals and turn them into anything that you like! 

1. Review your Goals.
2. Review your Psychic Goals.
3. Review your eCourse Goals. 
4. Follow your Schedule this week.
5. At the end of the week: Review your schedule and if it needs it: Write out your (new) Schedule. 
6. Make notes next to each Goal: Now it's important to keep checking and to be sure everything is still supporting and complimenting each other. 

Meditation & Hypnosis Downloads: 

Downloads to Listen to 5-7x this week

Yay! Whatever you want. Just do it. You pick the downloads that you want and listen to them. You can continue to work on relationships and people or start on some type of take a break, relax yourself or whatever else you are working on in your life. (Check your goals... Is there a download that fits what you're struggling with now or one that reinforces what you're creating? Is there anything that you're craving or that you 'want' to hear? If you haven't tried any new ones, now is a good time. This week is completely up to you.)

❥ Meditate! Being told to meditate is nothing new; everyone has heard this before. Why? Because it works. Whether you want to eliminate stress and anxiety, increase your psychic abilities, improve your connection with your Higher Self or get answers from within ~ meditation is the key. There are so many ways to meditate, so many disciplines to choose from and so many books to read~ try a download and enter it into your practice every day. If you 'don't have time' get one that puts you to sleep, wakes you up in the morning (you can use it as your alarm!) or a 5 minute break session. It's about shifting your consciousness and that is what these downloads are meant to do. (Read about how these downloads are different, click here.)  Try them. You'll be glad you did.

Psychic Development: Habits Matter

Yay! You've made it to week two! Congratulations. Now, we begin making all of this studying, journal exercises and downloads part of your regular routine. Practice makes perfect, consistency trains quickly and sets it in your mind like concrete.  

This week is a continuation of last weeks assignments. It was a lot to start all in one week. The assignments should have given you enough data to begin to make different decisions. Everyone's schedules and goals are different. The time that you spend with yourself and in your mind is precious. It's irreplaceable. It's YOU. Parts of you at different times, more than likely, but none the less, it's still you; all the dimensions and levels of you. 

That's really what this course is about... you and how you feel about you, how you take care of you and how you manage yourself when interacting and thinking about yourself in relation to the world and those around you. It's about consciousness. Really, everything, is simply about consciousness. And, consciousness can explain: why some people understand certain things and others understand other things, or why some people are emotionally stunted or choose the future or past over the present, or why sometimes we just don't get it. It is all about consciousness, frequency, vibration... If you are unfamiliar with these terms, no worries you learn all about them during this course. And, yes, you will be raising your vibration, tuning into the subtle frequencies in your subconscious mind and (if all goes as planned lol) shifting in consciousness. Soon, you should be able to document in your journal multiple ah-ha moments every week, so, welcome your epiphanies and expect to be showered with synchronicities. 

You can't master your emotions, fine tune your psychic abilities or accurately be able to hear your Higher Guidance if you have no idea who you are, what you want or don't, what you like or not or which part of you is thinking or feeling whatever it is that you are experiencing. In other words, if you don't know you, how could you possibly know anything else about anyone, what a good choice is for your career or the best place to live, start a family or get into a relationship? How could you trust that you are making the best choices for your body if you don't know what its saying to you? How can anyone act on their inner guidance if they are unfamiliar with their inner world, how it communicates and what all the messages mean? The better you know yourself (on all levels) the better able you are to maneuver fluidly through life and maintain your course (whatever that course or destiny may be).

How do you do all of those things that I just listed? By steady practice and being consistent. Rome was not built in a day and you did not just acquire a 20 year smoking habit or an extra 30 lbs in the last week. The first class may have seemed a bit overwhelming (everything all at once) but, just so that you are aware, the hard part is finding, committing and following through with your schedule (getting all of the work done in a relaxed and calm state with plenty of time). Here's the best part ~ If you do it now, it will make everything a lot easier later. If you want to change your life, you have to make different choices and you have to turn those [types] of choices into habits. Why all the harping on habits? Your habits are automatic and that is the result of training your subconscious mind. (I'll remind you again, your subconscious mind runs at least 80% of your life. What could you do, accomplish or how could you feel everyday if you just tapped into a tiny part of that massive 'machine' that keeps you going and doing the same thing everyday?)

When does the Magic happen?!!

This is why you must push through and get into a good routine for you. Being psychic is not magic. Some people are born to do it or have something psychic to do with their destinies and why they are here but the majority of the world can use them to improve their quality of life or to raise their standards of living. Not everyone is made to be a reader but everyone is made to use their minds. It's up to you how much you want it and what you want to do with it. There is a direct correlation with how much effort you put in to the results you receive. And yes, the exercises and downloads are what are causing changes in your thinking, your body and your life.  Take a deep breath and go back over your journal. You've had a week of listening to Developing your Psychic Abilities and A Gentle Conscience:
By now you should be able to see a definite difference in your psychic abilities. If your not getting psychic hits yet, think about how you're 'just' more intuitive or how you knew that was going to happen before it did. You should also be getting comfortable with which part of you is communicating with you, what it feels like and how to recognize its message. 
Your Hypnosis & Meditation Workbook trains you, your body and your mind to listen to you, the suggestions, pay attention to what you want to know, get or have fixed and to bring you anything that holds you back, the answers to questions you have and any help you need.

Training Yourself to Ask Yourself Everything!

Why? Simple. Because you know. You. You know. You know you. You know everything about you, your body, your mind, habits, emotions... everything. Any question (ever) you have access to the answer. And, if your Higher Self can't get the information, your Higher Self has quite a store of resources to draw from to get you what you need. 
Note* You only get the answers to what you ask. (If you're in the habit of asking everyone else, it's OK. You can train yourself to think of you first. Why is this important? If you do not ask you, you will not bring you the answers. Why does this matter? Because you are the only one that has your [whole] answer. Ever. 

  Broad Thoughts to Ponder:
Who are you?
Why are you here?
What's your purpose?
What's your 'gift'?
What's your 'curse' or 'cross to bear'?
What's the meaning of life?
What's the meaning of your life?

  'Your' Thoughts to Ponder:
Why did _________ happen?
Which (choice) is to my Highest Good?
What's the message with ________?
What's the best way develop my psychic abilities?
When's the best time for me to meditate, rest, exercise and/or go to bed?
(These are questions that you want to ask yourself. And, you ALWAYS want to ask yourself before you ask anyone else anything~ever. Ask yourself first. Then, and only then, should you ask anyone else their opinion.)

You'll be making your own list of things to ponder in your journal. It can be anything that you want to know or know about. Anything. You can list the questions themselves or write out clear, simple statements [of intent]:
Learn about ____________
What's the Message in my broken toe or sinus infection?
What classes should I take?
How do I fix _______?
What's the best way to approach _____?
You can title your ponder lists anyway you like. Be sure that you know that it is you that you are asking the questions to. Pick a few things to start with. It can be anything you're curious about. And, be prepared to get all of your questions answered. It may come in a book, movie, a thought, your dreams or even through a conversation. The possibilities are endless. And, your mind is already figuring out how to answer you, right now, as you're reading this. (Pretty, amazing, isn't it?)
Do your homework. You'll be referring to these lists through out the course. 

Do you need last week's homework? No problem! Click here for the Class Psychic Development: Foundation and Click here for the Homework. Happy Studying! 

Homework Assignments: Changes Made Easy Blog always has a clean outline/list of your homework for the week. Click here to see your current assignments. 

Writing Assignments:
Start getting into the habit of revisiting your homework, journal entries and goals. It's a great thing to start doing now and an easy way to check yourself and make sure that you are on track. The downloads should be seeping into your waking hours now, so, rethink your goals. If you're used to [my] downloads, there's some minor changes you may find; if you're new to them... Are you totally freaking out with how well they work, how good you feel and/or how much more energy you have and how well you sleep now?!! If you're not beside yourself with excitement, try to listen to them at a different time or place and increase the amount you're listening to them. Do you think you have a block? And, blocks are not bad, at all. It's your mind helping you by bringing you whats thwarting you. "Yay! Thank You, Wonderful, Powerful Subconscious Mind!" Click here to read about and check if you have a block. Remember: A block is not something that is meant to stop you, necessarily, it's a message. Ask yourself all about it! And, of course, the best way to 'fix' it.

1. Review and fine tune your Goals.
2. Review and fine tune your Psychic Goals.
3. Review and fine tune your eCourse Goals. 
4. Review and fine tune your Tentative Schedule.
5.  Write out your Tentative Schedule (again).  

Those 5 should be relatively easy, you're just incorporating what you've learned about yourself, your life and schedule into them. You can scribble things out or start a whole new list or page. It's completely up to you. Just be sure you can tell the differences between the first assignment and date and the current one. Remember, once you get this 'right' for you, you'll have a recipe that will last you the rest of your life. Awesome.
