00:00:00.640 --> 00:00:03.919
What if psychic ability isn't something you're born with, but
2
00:00:04.040 --> 00:00:09.039
something you can develop through training. Tonight we explore how
3
00:00:09.240 --> 00:00:14.960
meditation can open intuition, heighten awareness, and unlock abilities most
4
00:00:14.960 --> 00:00:19.519
people never realize they have. If you ever wondered whether
5
00:00:19.559 --> 00:00:24.640
psychic development is real or possible for you, this episode
6
00:00:24.839 --> 00:00:26.640
may change everything.
7
00:00:29.199 --> 00:00:31.879
Welcome, Well, Well do beary.
8
00:00:31.679 --> 00:01:03.600
True, how's it go on Paratruthers. Welcome to another episode
9
00:01:03.679 --> 00:01:08.480
of Paratruth Reborn. My name is Justin and I'm Eric,
10
00:01:09.599 --> 00:01:13.519
and tonight we're gonna be talking to Seanda Parkinson. We're
11
00:01:13.519 --> 00:01:17.560
gonna be talking to her about her book, Meditation for
12
00:01:17.599 --> 00:01:21.840
Psychic Development. It's something that Eric and I have talked
13
00:01:21.840 --> 00:01:27.400
about extensively on the show before, but we thought what
14
00:01:27.519 --> 00:01:31.239
better way to do it than to invite her on.
15
00:01:32.200 --> 00:01:33.840
Welcome back to Paratruth Reborn.
16
00:01:34.280 --> 00:01:37.200
Thank you. I'm looking forward to having another chat. We
17
00:01:37.239 --> 00:01:40.159
had so much fun last time, so I'm looking forward
18
00:01:40.200 --> 00:01:42.200
to seeing what kind of shenan against we can get
19
00:01:42.280 --> 00:01:42.480
up to.
20
00:01:44.519 --> 00:01:47.799
Well, one thing I didn't realize last time when we
21
00:01:47.799 --> 00:01:52.200
were talking is you're originally from North Dakota. Yes, okay,
22
00:01:53.319 --> 00:01:55.040
I live in Bismarck, North Dakota.
23
00:01:55.200 --> 00:01:58.640
So oh my gosh, no way, Hey, why did we
24
00:01:58.719 --> 00:02:01.760
not make this connection before? That is so odd?
25
00:02:02.120 --> 00:02:06.640
Yeah, you had said something on the previous show and
26
00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:09.960
somebody pointed out like I didn't even hear her saying that.
27
00:02:10.159 --> 00:02:13.360
Oh my gosh. Yeah. So I'm originally from the well
28
00:02:13.400 --> 00:02:16.639
I was born in Crosby, North Dakota, and I'm originally
29
00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:20.199
from the Mine area. My folks and my brothers still
30
00:02:20.240 --> 00:02:23.120
live there, so yeah, we get back to North Dakota
31
00:02:23.159 --> 00:02:24.159
every once in a while.
32
00:02:24.680 --> 00:02:27.479
Okay, cool, And now you live in Minneapolis, which is
33
00:02:27.599 --> 00:02:29.240
a hop, skip and a jump away from.
34
00:02:29.039 --> 00:02:31.120
Me, so yeah, exactly.
35
00:02:33.800 --> 00:02:36.840
All right, and we're good. Good.
36
00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:43.240
It's it's been kind of a transition transitioning to twenty
37
00:02:43.280 --> 00:02:47.159
twenty six. So what better way did do it than
38
00:02:47.199 --> 00:02:50.520
talk to you about the Meditation for Psychic Development? Because
39
00:02:51.159 --> 00:02:52.800
I feel a lot of people are going to start
40
00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:54.080
having awakenings soon.
41
00:02:54.439 --> 00:02:59.159
So yeah, I think I agree with you totally. Yeah,
42
00:02:59.159 --> 00:03:00.599
Happy New Year you both.
43
00:03:01.439 --> 00:03:07.520
Thanks you. So what made you write the Meditation for
44
00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:08.719
Psychic Development?
45
00:03:09.680 --> 00:03:15.400
Yeah? This this book has a really interesting story and lore,
46
00:03:15.680 --> 00:03:19.319
and you know what brought me into the material that's
47
00:03:19.319 --> 00:03:22.120
in the book is also just such a fascinating king.
48
00:03:22.199 --> 00:03:25.639
Of course, this is my very very first book projects.
49
00:03:25.639 --> 00:03:28.680
So this is like you know, it was like about
50
00:03:28.759 --> 00:03:31.840
fifteen years and amazing just in terms of like my
51
00:03:32.520 --> 00:03:40.159
path as a psychic and a reader and also a mentor.
52
00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:44.039
And so I was doing a presentation at at an
53
00:03:44.039 --> 00:03:48.680
event for Llewellyn Worldwide, which is a publishing company that
54
00:03:48.759 --> 00:03:52.960
I write for, and I did a meditation for a
55
00:03:53.039 --> 00:04:00.199
group of publishers and salespeople at a conference and they
56
00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:05.439
were pretty astonished by the meditation. And unbeknownst to me,
57
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:09.840
the actual owner of LLLLAN was at the presentation, and
58
00:04:10.960 --> 00:04:14.159
she came up to me afterwards and pulled me aside.
59
00:04:14.280 --> 00:04:16.519
I did not know who she was. I had met
60
00:04:16.519 --> 00:04:22.560
her before, and she said, I thought that your presentation
61
00:04:22.720 --> 00:04:26.079
was super compelling and the meditation you did was really interesting.
62
00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:28.399
It was very powerful. Do you think you could write
63
00:04:28.399 --> 00:04:31.959
a book about you know, do you think you could
64
00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:36.040
write a book about meditations that would connect people to
65
00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:40.800
their own psychic abilities? And I said, well, actually yeah,
66
00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:43.319
as a matter of fact, that's I mean, something I
67
00:04:43.360 --> 00:04:45.680
could probably do in my sleep. It's something I've been
68
00:04:45.720 --> 00:04:49.600
doing for a long long time myself and teaching and
69
00:04:49.639 --> 00:04:53.000
training other people to use as well, and we were
70
00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:58.279
off when then the book Baby was born. Unfortunately, it
71
00:04:58.360 --> 00:05:02.639
released in twenty twenty one, which we weren't doing any
72
00:05:02.720 --> 00:05:05.839
kinds of book events still at that point, so it
73
00:05:05.959 --> 00:05:09.800
was like, ooh, is this gonna fly? But the book
74
00:05:09.839 --> 00:05:13.759
has done very, very well. So that was kind of
75
00:05:13.800 --> 00:05:16.639
the that was the birth of the book. That's kind
76
00:05:16.639 --> 00:05:18.120
of how it came to be.
77
00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:24.319
Okay, okay, Well, now when people hear psychic abilities, what
78
00:05:24.439 --> 00:05:26.920
do they typically misunderstand about it?
79
00:05:27.920 --> 00:05:31.800
Yeah? I think that. I mean, I feel like, fortunately,
80
00:05:31.839 --> 00:05:34.959
we're kind of coming out of like a long history
81
00:05:35.199 --> 00:05:42.680
of stereotypes around the fortune tellers and and psychic being
82
00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:45.439
like somebody who's going to be able to tell you
83
00:05:45.439 --> 00:05:48.639
your future and everything that happens to you the next
84
00:05:48.680 --> 00:05:51.519
ten years or the rest of your life. And you know,
85
00:05:51.680 --> 00:05:57.279
And I think there is a misperception that psychics psychics
86
00:05:57.319 --> 00:06:02.040
will see something potentially negative about you or your future
87
00:06:02.079 --> 00:06:04.360
and tell you about it and set up this really
88
00:06:04.399 --> 00:06:09.519
scary chain of events. And so I feel like, hm,
89
00:06:10.079 --> 00:06:12.319
I feel like we have pop culture in the media
90
00:06:12.399 --> 00:06:16.120
to kind of blame for some of that, and and film,
91
00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:22.240
the film industry hasn't always been our ally in terms
92
00:06:22.319 --> 00:06:28.199
of presenting what psychics really are. So but but also
93
00:06:28.279 --> 00:06:30.759
I feel like we are pulling out of some of
94
00:06:30.759 --> 00:06:35.040
that but the misperceptions around psychics and psychic abilities and
95
00:06:35.959 --> 00:06:38.519
what that is. If if people can really fully embrace
96
00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:44.720
it's not somebody special or chosen or those are some
97
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:49.240
of the common myths. I think. He know, you're not.
98
00:06:49.480 --> 00:06:53.199
You're not chosen or special. You have psychic abilities because
99
00:06:53.959 --> 00:06:58.160
you own body of soul, and the word psychic means
100
00:06:58.439 --> 00:07:02.680
of the soul. And so if there is a space
101
00:07:02.759 --> 00:07:08.040
within you that you can tap and connect to that
102
00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:13.279
place inside of yourself, your psychic and it it's possible
103
00:07:13.399 --> 00:07:17.000
for all of us. Anybody can tap into their own
104
00:07:17.000 --> 00:07:19.959
psychic abilities. We just none of us are the same.
105
00:07:20.079 --> 00:07:24.199
We don't all receive the same so we're all different. Yeah.
106
00:07:24.279 --> 00:07:29.000
So I spend a lot of time talking about what
107
00:07:29.040 --> 00:07:32.680
psychic is and what it's not. Psychic and intuition get
108
00:07:33.000 --> 00:07:38.759
very confused for one another very often, And I break
109
00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:40.759
that down in the book, and I break that down
110
00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:45.240
in my mentoring programs with my clients as well. It's
111
00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:49.720
you know, so, yeah, So I have a couple of
112
00:07:49.759 --> 00:07:52.600
really cool exercises that help kind of break some of
113
00:07:52.600 --> 00:07:56.519
those things down. But that was a very long answer
114
00:07:56.560 --> 00:08:00.800
to a shirt question. As you remember, I don't answer
115
00:08:00.920 --> 00:08:05.360
questions very concisely. We keep going going.
116
00:08:07.720 --> 00:08:10.040
If anyone's that fought for that, it's definitely me. On
117
00:08:10.079 --> 00:08:16.319
a weekly basis, I talk way too much some times personally.
118
00:08:19.480 --> 00:08:22.959
And on top of the pop culture aspect, you know,
119
00:08:23.040 --> 00:08:26.519
the Charlatans have given psychics and mediums a bad rap
120
00:08:26.600 --> 00:08:29.160
to the ones that claim they do.
121
00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:29.839
Yes.
122
00:08:31.639 --> 00:08:35.360
But so here's something that I wish somebody would have
123
00:08:35.440 --> 00:08:38.360
explained to me more when I got started with this.
124
00:08:38.600 --> 00:08:41.559
You know, what's the biggest mistake beginners make when they're
125
00:08:41.559 --> 00:08:43.799
trying to start developing?
126
00:08:44.639 --> 00:08:49.720
Yeah, mistakes because I was, you know, I was one
127
00:08:49.759 --> 00:08:52.360
of them. I made my own mistakes and people oh
128
00:08:52.519 --> 00:08:56.519
me too. You know, if you can remember your own story,
129
00:08:56.559 --> 00:09:02.000
it's like not not slowing down to do the groundwork.
130
00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:09.000
So to me, like psychic abilities are built best when
131
00:09:09.120 --> 00:09:16.519
you have established a really good, strong foundational core that
132
00:09:17.399 --> 00:09:21.440
helped set the right conditions for your natural gifts to
133
00:09:22.240 --> 00:09:28.559
thrive and to grow. And so for example, accidentally I
134
00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:31.480
discovered meditation was going to be a wait for that
135
00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:36.120
to happen, it was very accident. It was an accidental
136
00:09:36.159 --> 00:09:41.039
discovery that meditation could help me actually connect with my
137
00:09:41.159 --> 00:09:45.919
loved ones that were crossed over. I was trying to
138
00:09:47.200 --> 00:09:50.320
achieve an astral or out of body experience. I was
139
00:09:50.360 --> 00:09:53.399
really dedicated to it, and I spent tons and tons
140
00:09:53.399 --> 00:09:58.000
and tons of time in a dark room meditating, and accident,
141
00:09:58.159 --> 00:10:00.639
I didn't achieve a not out of body experience, but
142
00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:05.519
I had an amazing connection points with what I still
143
00:10:05.559 --> 00:10:11.159
believe are my ancestors, spirit guides, and loved ones that
144
00:10:11.320 --> 00:10:14.879
came to me. So, so, anyway to answer your question
145
00:10:15.720 --> 00:10:21.279
jumping forward and trying to extract your get information from
146
00:10:21.360 --> 00:10:24.200
spirit loved ones from the other side or get psychic
147
00:10:24.279 --> 00:10:29.279
information without establishing the right conditions for that. And so
148
00:10:29.320 --> 00:10:33.279
the right conditions are when you are you're relaxed, your
149
00:10:33.320 --> 00:10:36.480
mind is open. You know, you're able to shift your
150
00:10:36.559 --> 00:10:40.879
vibrational energy so that you can actually align yourself with
151
00:10:42.000 --> 00:10:45.360
the other than ordinary realm, The other than human realm
152
00:10:45.399 --> 00:10:49.279
can come forward. It's like it's like you're the receiver, right,
153
00:10:49.360 --> 00:10:52.399
So like if you don't tune it to the right channel,
154
00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:57.039
you're not going to be as successful as if you
155
00:10:57.200 --> 00:11:02.240
actually slow down and get your tuning mechanism ready to
156
00:11:02.360 --> 00:11:05.919
receive something and then it will be way more successful.
157
00:11:06.039 --> 00:11:10.799
And so jumping into things like advanced exercises or trying
158
00:11:10.840 --> 00:11:14.559
to connect with loved ones, people get really frustrated really quick,
159
00:11:14.679 --> 00:11:17.960
and it's what turns people up or they automatically assume
160
00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:21.679
they can't do it, and it's like, you can do it,
161
00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:26.000
but learning about how it is that you actually receive
162
00:11:27.120 --> 00:11:30.519
and slowing yourself down enough to do those initial steps
163
00:11:30.519 --> 00:11:35.480
of the process will make it go so much more smoothly.
164
00:11:37.360 --> 00:11:40.480
Well, like I mentioned last time, the only way I
165
00:11:40.480 --> 00:11:44.159
can meditate now is in a bath, doing a ritualistic bath,
166
00:11:44.720 --> 00:11:50.440
like doing it sitting in a room either silent or
167
00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:54.600
with like meditation music. I just can't like I don't know,
168
00:11:54.679 --> 00:11:57.080
I just can't shut my brain off enough or what
169
00:11:57.159 --> 00:11:57.559
it is.
170
00:11:57.600 --> 00:12:03.440
But oh my gosh, well, like, okay, so meditation. Oh,
171
00:12:03.480 --> 00:12:06.679
I think we also have misperceptions about what meditation is.
172
00:12:06.799 --> 00:12:11.159
I mean, it can be something as simple as standing
173
00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:13.840
at the sink washing dishes, and I talk about that
174
00:12:14.039 --> 00:12:17.159
in this book. It is one of the most relaxing
175
00:12:17.240 --> 00:12:21.000
times of the day for me. I you know, it's
176
00:12:21.039 --> 00:12:23.360
not my favorite activity, don't dRIT me wrong. I don't
177
00:12:23.399 --> 00:12:27.440
love short. But it's like if I'm standing at the
178
00:12:27.519 --> 00:12:30.519
sink and I'm looking through the window and I'm doing
179
00:12:30.519 --> 00:12:32.720
the you know, my hands are in the water. I'm
180
00:12:32.759 --> 00:12:37.320
a focused activity. I can be running through releasing the
181
00:12:37.480 --> 00:12:40.559
energy of my day. I can be releasing the energy
182
00:12:40.600 --> 00:12:43.120
of my mind. I can clear the space so that
183
00:12:43.159 --> 00:12:46.120
when I walk away from that experience, I'm really super
184
00:12:46.200 --> 00:12:51.399
clear headed and I'm grounded. And water just does that
185
00:12:51.480 --> 00:12:53.879
for me. It's like you're you're in the tub getting
186
00:12:53.879 --> 00:12:57.440
ready for you know, are you doing your meditations? For me?
187
00:12:57.480 --> 00:13:03.000
It's it's walking, it's sitting outside in nature, it's laying
188
00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:07.320
in my hammock under the sky. You don't have to
189
00:13:08.120 --> 00:13:11.600
have this huge expectation to sit for an entire hour
190
00:13:12.080 --> 00:13:16.039
of meditating before you actually can open up and start
191
00:13:16.080 --> 00:13:22.720
to receive things. So meditation has is such a flexible tool,
192
00:13:23.240 --> 00:13:27.320
and so I like I like it when people can
193
00:13:27.399 --> 00:13:31.200
find a way to kind of sync the rhythms of
194
00:13:31.240 --> 00:13:35.720
their day with meditative activity because it will naturally on
195
00:13:35.960 --> 00:13:40.840
kind of on a regular basis if you open to receiving, yeah,
196
00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:42.960
all kinds of interesting insights.
197
00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:47.519
Yeah, but are we There's like a number of different
198
00:13:49.120 --> 00:13:52.279
branches I guess te psychic ability, and I'm thinking like
199
00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:57.279
intuition or clairvoyance or even empathy. And is there a
200
00:13:57.320 --> 00:14:00.519
particular type of meditation a way to train those cipic
201
00:14:00.600 --> 00:14:04.600
branches of psychic ability or is that okay? Or is
202
00:14:04.639 --> 00:14:08.360
that just like whatever you happen to have, that's the good.
203
00:14:08.320 --> 00:14:09.039
One that you have.
204
00:14:09.559 --> 00:14:13.200
No. I love that. I love that because the book
205
00:14:13.240 --> 00:14:16.679
also kind of breaks that down in like in terms
206
00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:22.919
of the Claires. So you guys are probably familiar with clairvoyance,
207
00:14:23.519 --> 00:14:28.720
Claire cognizance, clare sentience. And so if you if you
208
00:14:28.960 --> 00:14:33.480
know what Claire you are, you can gear your meditations
209
00:14:33.600 --> 00:14:37.480
around that. And so there's a really simple basic way
210
00:14:38.559 --> 00:14:40.840
to really kind of reflect on what of the Claire's
211
00:14:41.039 --> 00:14:43.720
like it might be your strengths and so like for
212
00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:47.039
your for your add for everybody like watching or listening
213
00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:51.600
or watching the replay. If you are somebody who considers
214
00:14:51.639 --> 00:14:57.919
yourself a supervisual person or you're a visual learner, or
215
00:14:58.039 --> 00:15:02.440
you find yourself, Yeah, find yourself. Yeah, Like you can
216
00:15:02.480 --> 00:15:05.080
close your eyes and you can see pictures and images,
217
00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:09.039
or you're a dreamer, you have vivid dreams. You might
218
00:15:09.080 --> 00:15:13.799
be clairvoyance and that's clear seeing. So if you're somebody
219
00:15:13.799 --> 00:15:18.879
who's a clear seeing a visual person, meditations or that
220
00:15:18.960 --> 00:15:22.360
include visualizations where you can go on a journey, you
221
00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:25.320
can go into nature, you can meet up with a
222
00:15:25.480 --> 00:15:29.639
guide or a loved one. I would take somebody who's
223
00:15:29.759 --> 00:15:35.200
claarboyant on a journey meditation that's that's very visual because
224
00:15:35.240 --> 00:15:37.279
it's going to be something that is going to naturally
225
00:15:37.320 --> 00:15:41.679
help them open. Versus if you're empathic, or you consider
226
00:15:41.679 --> 00:15:44.879
yourself an EmPATH, that would be somebody who's clear sentient
227
00:15:45.039 --> 00:15:49.320
or a clear feeling. If you're a clear feelings person,
228
00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:54.279
we're handling that kind of meditation completely differently. You might
229
00:15:54.720 --> 00:15:59.480
benefit from doing a sound bath meditation or something that
230
00:15:59.759 --> 00:16:04.240
kind of helps relax your body and helps relax your senses.
231
00:16:05.039 --> 00:16:12.159
Heart opening meditation listening to really soothing music or just
232
00:16:12.240 --> 00:16:15.320
closing your eyes and doing some breathwork can be a
233
00:16:15.320 --> 00:16:17.840
way for five to ten minutes to open your heart,
234
00:16:17.919 --> 00:16:22.960
to calm your system down. When you're an impact and
235
00:16:23.039 --> 00:16:24.919
I know a lot of you know a lot of
236
00:16:24.960 --> 00:16:29.840
folks can kind of classify themselves and as an EmPATH
237
00:16:29.879 --> 00:16:33.200
that somebody who's really super sensitive can pick up a
238
00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:38.559
lot of energy in their environment very very easily. Having
239
00:16:38.639 --> 00:16:43.840
a meditation that also helps you protect your energy field,
240
00:16:44.320 --> 00:16:49.559
clear your energy field. It's very important that you kind
241
00:16:49.600 --> 00:16:53.720
of get orientated with how it is that you feel like,
242
00:16:53.840 --> 00:16:57.440
and you might be multiple things as well. If you're
243
00:16:57.559 --> 00:17:01.600
somebody who's a clear knowing person, like clear cognizance is
