To use meditation to develop your psychic abilities can be very interesting and a lot of fun along the way. It is not going to happen straight away but there are short cuts you can take and we will explore the ins and outs of a few of them as we get started.The thing you have to realize is that anyone can meditate and after some time will also learn how to make contact with their spirit guides and start to communicate with them. To give you an example of this 99% of people have meditated at one time or another and not even realized it, let me explain? Think for a moment about someone sitting reading a good book that they are engrossed in while everyone else in the room is watching the tv.

If you stopped the person from reading the book and asked them what the program on the tv was about you would no doubt find they would not have a clue, that is because they was in an altered state of consciousness... they were so into the book that they was oblivious to everything that was going on around them.

To explain it another way they were in a form of meditation. So how do we go about using meditation to develop our psychic abilities? Once you can clear your mind of thoughts which is one of the things you have to learn to do and I will give you some help on this in a moment then you can begin by asking in your mind for your guide to come close to you and for you to be able to feel his or her presence.

Start to take note of things you may be feeling like tingling on any part of your body as this is what usually happens when they draw close to you, if it happens that you do manage to feel anything and it can take weeks or months for anything to happen but if it does then ask if whoever it is that is there if they can give you a name, take the fist name that comes into your head do not think about it just except that it is right.
