Getting Past Barriers and Blocks to Mediumship, Psychic and Intuitive Development

ClareMcNaul.com

Developing your psychic and mediumship ability is a lot like working with sand - often difficult to grasp and easily able to slip through your fingers. That is why it is so important to clear the path as best you can of any extraneous barriers and blocks to your development.

This booklet will help you to figure out what your potential blocks are so that you can address them.

When you first begin to develop your mediumship ability there are doubts and questions that arise. Such as…

• Do I have a natural ability?• Don’t you have to have be born with “the gift”?• Will I ever be able to do this?• What if I’ve never ever had an intuitive experience?• Will I be perceived as weird?

This is a natural part of the process. However, if not dealt with directly these doubts and questions along with some other things that I will talk about a little farther down can turn into barriers and blocks to your intuitive development.

So… my approach to this is: let’s figure out what your potential barriers or blocks are up front and try to nip ‘em in the bud, as it were.

Here’s the bottom line: Everyone - I don’t care if you think you were born with the ability or not - has had lots of psychic and intuitive experiences.

Like what? you might ask. Like…

• Knowing who is on the phone before you answer it (before you have looked at the caller ID!)

• Sensing your child needs you before he calls out from his bedroom

• Thinking of an old friend you haven’t seen for years then running into her at the farmer’s market

Clare (I can hear you asking) are you saying that, that time I randomly thought of my Aunt Harriet and then went to the mailbox and there was a birthday card from her waiting there, is an intuitive experience?

Bingo! Yes that is what I am saying.

You have intuitive gifts and you use them without even recognizing it on a regular basis.

And you can learn to develop that intuition into something greater… something wonderful! You just need to want to do so and to be willing to practice.

…And to be willing to take a good look at the things that might trip you up then focus on letting them go.

So let’s take a look at some of the more common block and barriers experienced by folks developing their psychic and mediumship abilities:

Negative thoughts and beliefs:

“I can’t do it.”

“I will never get it.”

“I don’t think I was born this way.”

These are negative thoughts and belief in action. These will weigh you down in your development and drown out the voice of your intuition. You are going to bring them up and out into the light then let ‘em go!

Concern for what others will think:

This is a big one. Social fear…

Afraid that your mom will judge you because you are developing your mediumship abilities?

That your spouse will think you are a little crazy because you want to talk with spirit?

That if the people at work find out they will think you are weird?

Concern or fear about what others will think can stop you dead (please pardon the pun budding mediums!) in your

tracks.

It is very important to bring those concerns up, address them and let ‘em go.

Doubt:

This is another BIG one.

If you doubt that you will be able to do this, if you doubt that you are capable of being a medium, if you doubt what you are getting during your practice exercises you are placing one of the biggest blocks to your mediumship development smack dab in the middle of your path.

You’ll learn how to deal with this as we go along. I’ll give you a hint… Trust.

Impatience:

There are ebbs and flows during mediumship development. That’s just the way it is. Becoming impatient when things aren’t going the way you think they should makes the ebbs longer. We don’t want longer ebbs. Therefore… “Patience Grasshopper..!”

Clutter:

I know, I know… you like your clutter. I’m kind of fond of mine, too. But it gets in the way so we are going to tackle it. Both the clutter in your space and clutter in your heart and mind. Awareness is the key to clearing the clutter to make the space for your own intuition and for the voice of spirit.

Stress:

Yup. Get’s in the way of development. You’ll learn healthy ways to deal with stress that will be useable in all areas of your life. Which is a lovely bonus!

And last but not least that niggly wiggly voice of…

Your Inner Critic:

You will learn to love, gently pat on the bum, then escort your own inner critic out the door during mediumship practice and exercises.

The above are the most common blocks and barriers that I see in my students.

You may have some that are different and entirely your very own. That is ok. You’ll address those, too.

So here’s what I want you to do. Yes… you have homework. :)

Take some time in the next couple of days to reflect on anything that you think or feel will be, or already is, a block or barrier to your mediumship development.

Be very honest with yourself. Leave nothing out with an “that’s not important” attitude. It is all important to your development.

Write each of your potential blocks and barriers down in the space below. Writing them all down will bring them up and into the light so that rather than allow them to remain hidden away inside of you left unexamined or unexpressed, you can explore and begin to address them one by one.

You will probably find yourself addressing one or more of those I have itemized above. Don’t leave them out just because I have covered them off there. If one or more of the above apply to you take the time to write each down, in your handwriting preferably (yes… using your own hand and a pen - what a thought! ;) - print the form below if you are able to - or use a separate piece of paper).

Be as specific and descriptive as you can. Then bring them to our next session so we can talk about them

together. Transcribe your writing into an email and send it to me ahead of our next session at clare@claremcnaul.com.
