It is essential, if you are to develop your psychic gifts safely, to find a teacher who is experienced and honest.
There are many out there offering classes and who do not, in my opinion, have the proper credentials. It is essential you choose someone who is an experienced medium and who cares about thier students welfare.
An unexperienced person can do more harm than good to a complete novice and indeed, to someone at any stage of their spiritual development.
Being a psychic or cold reader, or member of a church, is not good enough to teach the development of spiritual gifts. They need more skills for this job.
Meditation should play a huge role in your development, as it is only through meditation that you get to know yourself, your guardian angel and your spirit guide. Therefore, if the circle leader does not offer meditation, I suggest you do not join the classes.
It is just as important to learn how to shut down after a session as it is to open up at the start of it. A group teacher must teach you how to do this. If they do not offer this is can be unsafe for the student.
No one should be walking around with their psychic centres open, picking up information from who knows who. It can make you ill, as what you are doing is picking up all the good and all the negative vibes from the good the bad and the ignorant.
Ask around for the name of someone who has earned respect in this field. Ask lots of people and then contact the named mediums and ask what they offer and what makes them a good tutor of psychic development.
