When you hear the term psychic ability you immediately think of someone who can predict the future or read people's mind. Telepathy, ESP and psychokinesis are subjects that simply are unexplainable according to natural laws. But psychic ability is not just the realm of quacks or fortune tellers. Many people, like the proverbial idiot savants, exhibit unusual abilities that anyone can have with the proper training. So how can you develop psychic abilities?

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • A quiet place for meditation
  • Books to improve mental skills
  • A receptive mind
  1. Step 1

    Simply believe that you have the capability to develop psychic ability. Mentalists, hypnotists and magicians amaze us with their abilities to remember, recall and deceive us with their tricks. The mind is capable of so much more than what we use it for. Developing psychic abilities is as simple as training your intelligence to remember the names and face of a hundred people after hearing them once or recalling the sequence of cards after seeing them once. Many remote viewing experiments demonstrates the uncanny ability of the mind to envision a place never seen before. If you doubt your ability to improve your mental acuity, you simply cannot make a start to develop it.

  2. Step 2

    Develop your senses. We use our five senses on a daily basis, but very few have cultivated them to their maximum potential. We see but don't observe. We hear but don't really listen. Wine connoisseurs develop their senses of taste and smell to the point that they can tell a Cabernet Sauvignon from a Claret. Since our senses are all we have, we should develop them for peak efficiency. In fact if we were to develop and use them, we would be more capable of improving that elusive sixth sense we read and hear about. If you want to develop your senses, use the technique of mindfulness that Buddhists teach. It just means living in the present moment, being aware of the details of everything we see, hear, touch, taste and smell.

  3. Step 3

    Develop mental skills. Your body and mind are linked together. How you think affects your body. Think depressing thoughts and your body will assume a posture that will lead to aches, pains and even disease. To develop psychic abilities you need to improve the mental talents of memory, concentration, logical deduction and reasoning ability. Too many people go through life with their minds half asleep. Mental acuity and the ability to learn is lost. A sharp mind is an active mind. To learn those mental skills you must learn to use the mind. Playing chess, doing Sudoku puzzles or solving a crossword puzzle gets the mind thinking down different channels. As your body needs physical exercise, so does your mind.

    Learn to meditate. It's not just the domain of some monk isolated in a monastery. Meditation clears the mind of the clutter that pervades it every waking day. Whether you believe in God or a universal force or energy, meditation can connect with it. A calm spirit allows you to see solutions better and improves your intuition to make the right decisions for any problems you face.

  5. Step 5

    Educate yourself. This doesn't appear to have anything to do with psychic ability, but the fact is that most of us are locked into a narrow zone where we can see nothing to either side of us. Education means expanding the scope and direction of your life. It opens up possibilities and improves the latent talents, psychic and otherwise, that we think we don't have.

  6. Step 6

    Improve your relationships. Every major religion teaches the concept of love for your fellow man and for good reason. We are all connected in some way to each other and to the natural order of the universe. We like to think we are separate, independent beings, isolated from everyone else, but this is not true. Cultivating love, projecting a feeling of good will toward others connects us to the laws that govern the universe. We become a part of the whole when we are in harmony with it. The potential of a “group think” could well propel us to travel to the stars in our own Enterprise instead of just watching a science fiction program on TV. Once we are in harmony with family members, friends and strangers, psychic ability improves and opens up possibilities we didn't know existed.

Tips & Warnings
  • Practice visualization. See yourself as having reached your goals and it can come to pass
  • Set a goal to make daily improvements in all areas of your life.
  • Read some books on spiritual and mental improvement
  • Exercise improves circulation, provides oxygen to help the body heal itself and improve mental function.
  • Avoid skeptics. They can drag you down
  • Avoid eating junk food loaded with fat and sugar. They drain your energy and make it impossible to make any progress in your life.
