Tipp des Tages : 30 April

Develop psychic powers


Psychic powers are not easy to obtain. Some believe that everyone has the potential to develop these powers and others think that only some people have abilitiy for these powers.
To know our potential, we must already believe deeply that we have psychic powers or we will not have them developed.
A good thing to increase our powers is engaged in meditation and develop our ability to focus on something very specific.
We must pay close attention to the world around us, notice the psychic anomalies and let our intuition expressed itself.
We can write on a notebook all these anomalies and the insights they inspired.
We can also record the stories of our dreams and check within days if events may correspond to them.
With all the information we have collected, we can get an image of powers that we possess: prediction of the future, telepathy ...
Once we have this picture, we can test your psychic ability in order to develop it. According to the power that we possess, we can predict some events, record these predictions and then check if they were right. Or we can test our power of telepathy with a friend, save the results and examine the progress curve of our ability.
