HOW TO PREPARE FOR A PSYCHIC MEDIUMSHIP READING

If you have ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes before a psychic mediumship reading, then you are not alone. Many people often ask me, "How do you prepare for a session? Do you have special rituals?" The truth is, my approach is simple, but it's deeply intentional.

Whether you are a medium looking to refine your practice or someone preparing for your first reading as a client or sitter, understanding the preparation process can help you make the most of the experience. So, let me fill you in about what really happens before the magic begins.

Cultivating a Calm Mind is The Key to Spirit Communication

The most important part of preparing for a psychic mediumship reading is getting into a calm and open state of mind. Think of it like tuning a radio to clear the static before you can hear the message clearly.

For me, this means shifting my awareness just before a session. I take a few moments to let go of my own thoughts, worries, or distractions from the day. Mediumship requires a deep level of focus, and any mental clutter or distraction can interfere with the connection.

Imagine trying to have a heart-to-heart conversation with someone while standing in the middle of a busy shopping centre. The noise, the distractions, the background chatter, it all gets in the way. The same goes for psychic mediumship. I create a quiet space within my mind so I can fully receive the messages from the spirit world.

Quieting the Conscious Mind and Getting Out of My Own Way

Our conscious mind is like a chatty backseat driver, always analysing, questioning, and sometimes doubting. It’s great for everyday decision-making at home or at work but not so helpful when trying to connect with the other side.

Before a reading, I intentionally quiet my conscious mind. I don’t let it jump in with judgments like, "Are you sure that's what you heard?" or "What if that’s wrong or stupid?" Instead, I shift into a receptive state where I allow information to come through naturally, without overthinking.

This is where I feel many developing mediums struggle. The need to be "right" can get in the way of simply allowing the evidence to unfold. But when we step aside and trust the process, the spirit world never fails to deliver exactly what’s needed. And remember, what is seen as wrong today could end up being right tomorrow, in a week, or in three months time.

Do I Have a Ritual? Not Really And Here’s Why

People often assume psychic mediums have elaborate rituals - think special candles, crystals, incense, esoteric music - but that’s not the case for me. While those things can be wonderful tools for relaxation, they aren’t necessary for a strong connection to the spirit world.

I don’t need a specific location, a lucky object, or a sacred chant to tap in. My process is simple: I show up, clear my mind, and allow Spirit to guide the conversation. I might have a cup of tea beforehand but that’s it.

I firmly believe that the connection to the other side doesn’t depend on external things and that it comes from within. The spirit world meets us where we are, as long as we are open and willing to listen.

What Clients Can Do to Prepare for a Reading

If you are preparing for your own psychic mediumship reading, there are a few things you can do to help create the best experience possible.

1. Come with an Open Mind

Expect the unexpected. The messages that come through may not be what you were anticipating, but they will always be what you need to hear.

2. Set an Intention

You don’t need to tell me (or any psychic medium) what you are hoping for, but setting an internal intention can be very powerful. Simply take a moment to invite your loved ones in spirit to join the session.

3. Don’t Feed the Medium

I know it can be tempting to give details, but the best readings happen when you allow the medium to do the work. Instead of offering information, respond simply with “yes,” “no,” or “I’m not sure.” The less you say, the more validating the messages will be.

4. Stay Present

A mediumship reading isn’t just about receiving messages: it’s about feeling the connection. Stay present and open to the experience rather than overanalysing each word.

A Psychic Medium Reading is a Shared Experience

Mediumship isn’t a one-way street. It’s a dance between the medium, the client, and the spirit world. The more relaxed and open everyone is, the stronger the connection will be.

Ultimately, my role isn’t to perform some mystical act. It’s to be a bridge between worlds, helping you feel the presence of your loved ones in spirit. And when that connection happens? It’s pure magic.
