Frequently Asked Questions
How do Psychics do readings?
Psychics are able to pick up energy fields from people, places and things in the past present and future on this earth
plane. They tune into these vibrations and are able to receive information from them. Mediums are able to make contact
with the other side of life, with friends, family and such. Not all Psychics are Mediums, but all Mediums are Psychic.
Messages are sent from their spirit guides through them to you. This may be in the form of signs, symbols, audio,
empathic vibrations and so on. These vibrations are transformed into thoughts, pictures, feelings and etc.
For me, it is like playing a game of charades. I receive signs and symbols, feelings and such, then have to figure out what
they are showing me. The Spirits are trying to get me to say a certain message but I have to figure out what those signs
mean before I can deliver the message. Most times I just tell the person what I am seeing, hearing or feeling and let them
do the interpretation. Usually, I don't understand what is coming through but they understand perfectly. So, when I ask
someone to wait one moment please, I am asking them to hang on a minute while important information is coming through
for them. When I have interpreted the signs/symbols correctly I will tell them what I am seeing, hearing etc.

Why spirits are earthbound?
Spirits may remain earthbound for many reasons. They may not realize they are dead. Their life may have come to a
sudden end from an accident or violent incident. This may leave the spirit confused about where they should go from here.
The spirit may have a hard time coming to grips with this new information and can’t let go of it’s physical existence for
several possible reasons. The spirit may be frightened to crossover into the next new plane of existence. They may be
unwilling to crossover because they still have emotional (loved ones) or material (property) connections that they are not
willing to give up at this time. They may not be aware that they even have a choice.
We think of the earthbound spirits as "trapped". This is not the case. Most times they need time to process these
transitions and emotions. They need to realize they have transitioned into spirit and do not need materialistic possessions
or emotional responsibilities such as taking care of the family anymore. Their time is finished here on earth and they have
a new life and new lessons to learn on the other side. By staying earthbound, they are only delaying the progress and
evolution of their soul, the life learning cycle, and become stagnant. Spirit guides and angels are assisting them slowly and
gently to help them make the right choices. Being human and stubborn, they hang on to anger, guilt, frustration, fear,
loneliness, and a multitude of emotional issues/baggage when they die and it may cause them to remain earthbound.
These earthbound spirits may take years or centuries to "see the light" and to drop this baggage and crossover.
Sometimes they need help making this transition from the earthbound plane to the spirit world. This is one way I help spirits
to crossover. I will communicate with the spirit, find out why it is still earthbound and if it is willing and ready to drop all
baggage, I will talk it through and help it to crossover at that time.

Preparation for Meditation
Space: Choose a space that is quiet, comfortable and has fresh air and a good energy flowing through it. This could be a
den, living room, bedroom, attic, garden, or any of your favorite quiet places outside. This will be your personal space.
Comfortability: In this space you want to be as physically and mentally comfortable as possible. You can sit in a
comfortable chair, couch, and use pillows, blankets or cushions. Anything you can use to help you achieve this.
Atmosphere: Make sure the environment around you has positive energy flow, fresh air and is clean not cluttered. To
create a personal, relaxing, quiet atmosphere, you may try simple pure silence, adding candles, incense, burn sage,
playing calming music or a combination of any of these. You can add your own ideas. Remember, you are creating your
own personal atmosphere and space, so try whatever works for you.
Relaxation: Once you achieve your space, atmosphere, and comfortability, you will need to take a few moments to relax
your body and mind. Deep breathing will help you achieve this. Try taking in one breath slowly and count for six seconds.
As your taking in this breath, imagine that positive energy light is entering your lungs filling up your entire body. After six
seconds slowly exhale and release this breath imagining all the negative energy in your body and all the stresses in your
life are exiting your body. Repeat this breathing process 10-15 times.
Relaxing and clearing your mind: Try to allow all your thoughts to empty out of your head. If you experience thoughts
coming in, don’t hang on to them and think about them just simply let them flow out again. Continue this process until you
mind is empty of all thoughts. This may take a lot of practice.
Relaxing your body: First thing to do is to wear loose clothing. Remove anything that is confining such as bracelets,
watches, belts, and socks. After your breathing is finished, you may want to do some stretching by tightening and
releasing muscles from different body parts. Start with your toes, tensing them up counting 10-15 seconds and releasing
them. As you do this try to imagine releasing all the tension and stress from your toes. Then move on to your feet, ankles,
calves, thighs, buttocks, hips, stomach, chest, shoulders, arms, hands, head and face. Take your time with each part,
specifically concentrating each one.
After you have achieved this relaxed state both in mind and body you will be ready to start your meditation.

What is the difference between a Psychic and a Medium?
Psychic:
A psychic’s ability enables them to identify the energy vibrations of a person, place or thing by using their developed five
senses. The energy may allow the psychic to interpret events in the past, present, or future. This ability may help people
problem solve daily issues with the help of their spirit guides. The process may help to enlighten the seeker. Past life issues
can also be identified and utilized as a tool to help the seeker’s present circumstances.
Mediums:
Mediums have the ability to make contact with the other side of life, (spirit) enabling the medium to communicate with the
deceased and relay messages to the living. This type of communication can be beneficial to the healing process. Mediums
are also psychic.
NOT all psychics are mediums, but all mediums are psychics.

What is Reiki healing?
Reiki (pronounced ray-key) is a gentle hands-on healing technique. The words come from two Japanese words, Rei
meaning Universal force or spiritual intelligence and Ki meaning Life Energy. Thus, Reiki is spiritually guided life force
energy. Simply put, Reiki is the channeling of Universal energy (life force) for the purpose of healing. This Healing takes
place on all levels; physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.
Reiki is both powerful and gentle and can be used as an aid in treating any type of illness.
We are, animal, plant and humans, alike alive because of this Universal Life force that flows through us. Reiki works with
this Life force to help with traditional Western and veterinary medicine. The roots of Reiki healing lie in ancient origins. The
technique is over 5000 years old and was rediscovered by Dr. Mikao Usui. Reiki was brought to and nurtured in the United
States by Mrs. Hawayo Takata.
The principals of Reiki are good guidelines for all to follow:
Just for today, do not worry.
Just for today, do not anger.
Honor your parents, teachers and elders.
Earn your living honestly.
Show gratitude to every living thing.
Dr. Mikao Usui
This holistic alternative technique can recharge, realign, and restore balance to your body’s energy field and energy
centers.
This technique does not use chemicals, manipulations or massage. Through Reiki therapy, people have a noted, marked
elimination of anxiety, tension, stress, mental /emotional issues, as well as past life issues.
The benefits of Reiki therapy may allow people once again to enjoy good health and new levels of productivity in their lives.
With Reiki therapy, people with high stress levels may achieve marked improvement medically, spiritually and emotionally.

Question from John Doe:
I guess my question is how does one know if they could be psychic? For as long as I can remember, around 10 or so, I
could tell things about people. I mean people walking down the street, friends, family, even people who I never met before.
It got to the point that I was dreaming about things that I did NOT want to see. They were very gruesome things to say the
least. I started working very hard on not dreaming and blocking all of this stuff out of my head. Now, as I am getting older, I
am not sure if I just don’t have the spare energy to block this stuff out any longer or maybe the thoughts/feelings are
getting stronger. Finally my question, since I can’t seem to get away from these feelings any longer is there some
exercises that I can do, book reading, etc. That might let me get a better handle on my situation? Is there a way to tell if
you are psychic or just a crackpot?
Patricia’s reply:
Sorry to say, you are not crazy and there is no need for men in white coats. What I am happy to say is welcome to the
world of human beings. All humans are hardwired at birth to be connected to the source, God, universe. We are energy,
souls in a physical body. We all have the ability to use this energy to connect to and be connected with each other and
the universe. To what degree people are developed with this ability is another story.
Some people are born "naturally" open / more developed to using this energy/sensitivity, "psychic ability". The example I
tell people is that we all have the ability to pick up a pencil and draw something, even if it is only a stick figure (like me) lol.
Some people can draw beautiful artwork on a paper napkin and never have taken a lesson in their life. The difference?
They are "naturally" talented /developed in that area. Everyone can do it with time and practice.
What you are is "naturally" developed/highly sensitive. What people would call "psychic". It is the ability to be sensitive
enough to pick up energy vibrations from other people, places and things around you. It is perfectly natural and normal to
have this ability. I am grateful for it.
I, like you, found out at an early age (3) that I could do the things you could. It didn't bother me until I got to be a
teenager and realized what this was all about. I scared myself so much that I told the spirits I didn't want to see, hear, or
feel them ever again. Every once in awhile, I would hear or feel things but I ignored it. About the age of 35, I could not
ignore them “spirit” as the energy was so strong. My true career, as I found out, was to work with my spirit guides and
other spirits to help people who needed help. So I accepted this fact, and started to develop it.
Now, you have two choices. You can accept it and develop it to help other people as the gift as it was meant to be or
decide not to use it and tell all spirits and the universe that you do not want this gift and to take it away forever. You have
free will on earth. You do not have to do anything you don't want to do.
It is as simple as that. If you do decide to develop, it is going to be a long and exciting experience. You have to learn
how to control your mind and body. You have to learn how to open up and shut down this sensitivity/block it out at will. You
will have to learn how to protect yourself and block out other people, places and thing's energy. Then learn to develop a
relationship with spirit. It is a lot to learn, and takes time to develop, but it can be a lot of fun. It is all about how you
develop and use it that counts. “With great power comes great responsibility.” (spiderman quote).
So the ball is in your court and you have to make a big decision. Think long and hard about it because it does have it's
ups and downs like everything. It does sound like spirit is really pushing to work with you probably why things feel like they
are getting stronger. If you decide to develop and "go" with the flow, you will feel your whole life paddling down river,
flowing so easy and naturally instead of paddling up stream against the current.
You are one of hundreds of thousands that feel the same way. I want to let you know your not alone, you are normal
and this is very natural. All you need is guidance to make an informed decision about this issue. I recommend reading
“Idiots Guide to Being Psychic” and “Idiots Guide to Communicating with Spirit”. These are very basic easy to read books
with a lot of great information. Good Luck in your quest.
