The extrasensory psychic ability of clairempathy or ‘psychic empathy’ is not yet recognized in mainstream science, but that does not make it any less bona fide for the highly sensitive people who experience these empathic psychic phenomena as a daily reality. Despite the lack of academic interest, and contrary to widespread skepticism, there is a growing body of anecdotal evidence and a significant collection of scientific data steadily gaining momentum to offer intriguing clues to the psycho-physiological experiences of empaths, intuitives, sensitives and psychics all over the world. I am a clairempath. I feel what other people feel. I experience inexplicable extrasensory perceptions of other people’s emotions, mood states, subconscious motivations, and even their physical or medical symptoms. It happens without me having to see them, or knowing anything about them. Touching others, or being in close proximity to them, elicits more intense empathic perceptions , but it is not necessary for me to have direct contact or personal interaction with others in order to have a direct experience of their underlying feelings and intentions. Clairempathy is a psychic perception preference. In my experience this process of sensing is due to some form of energy transfer between me and other people when the information is in my environment. I call this local induction, as opposed to nonlocal psychic perception. There is an energy interaction or energy exchange that takes place between me and them. I experience these vivid psychic impressions of other’s energy on a daily basis, and I utilize it to the best of my ability in my work as a professional psychic medium, consulting with clients all over the world. Clairempathy is an energy perception, or sentient response, that has no rational or logical origin. It is a form of perception which is experienced as a tactile, physical sensation... or an emotional feeling. My clairempathic experiences are uncanny and very real, as many of my friends, family and clients will attest. In exploring the limits of consciousness...we are indeed challenged by the spirit of our own epoch. In spite of the persuasiveness of conventional wisdom, consciousness may in fact have transtemporal aspects, and if so, the hard problem of consciousness takes on a mysterious new gleam ~ Dean Radin As is the case with all forms of extra-sensory perception (ESP) and paranormal ability, clairempathy or ‘psychic empathy’ is not yet recognized by the mainstream scientific community. However, that does not make it any less bona fide to me. For me it is a daily reality, despite the lack of scientific evidence to explain or justify my (sometimes traumatic) personal life experiences. And contrary to persistent mainstream skepticism regarding the existence of empaths and psychic phenomena, there is a growing body of anecdotal evidence and scientific data gaining momentum in this highly neglected field of study. Liberated by globalization and social media technology, a rising international community of empaths, psychics, energy healers and highly sensitive people have been sharing in recent years their often deeply personal experiences of these so-called paranormal or ‘supernatural’ phenomena. Online forums, social media support groups and consultation services for this purpose are expanding in cyberspace, as more of us are coming together to exchange information about our empathic psychic experiences. Our real life stories are increasingly coming out of the ‘paranormal closet’ and into the public domain. This growing collection of anecdotal evidence cannot be disregarded or ignored indefinitely. English author Quentin Crisp famously stated, “In an expanding universe, time is on the side of the outcast. Those who once inhabited the suburbs of human contempt find that without changing their address they eventually live in the metropolis.” Psychic ability, extra sensory perception (ESP) and paranormal phenomena remain neglected fields of study in scientific research, for various reasons. The good news is that at least some new scientific evidence has been emerging over the years to offer clues towards a future technical understanding of psychic sensitivity, clairempathy and related empath experiences. Below are some of the more significant scientific discoveries in this arena. Mirror-Touch Synesthesia Synesthesia, oddly described by some in the medical community as a ‘disorder’, is basically the extraordinary ability some people possess to simultaneously perceive something through more than one of the senses. Perception with one sense triggers a simultaneous and corresponding perception in another sense. For example, synesthetes can ‘see sounds’ or ‘taste words’ or ‘feel smells.’ In some forms of synesthesia the person might perceive symbols, shapes, letters, or numbers with an accompanying sensory perception of color, flavor or smell. Mirror-touch synesthesia and pain synesthesia are versions of this phenomenon which causes the synesthete to feel a similar sensation in the same part of their body as another person. For example, seeing someone else being pinched on their cheek, would cause the synesthete to feel a similar sensation on their own cheek. Scientific studies have not only provided clear evidence for the existence of this type of synesthesia, but have also shown that it correlates with extraordinary or heightened empathic ability. Electromagnetic Biocurrents Some researchers not only believe that both the human brain and heart generate significant electromagnetic energy fields, but that the heart is in fact the most prominent source of biocurrents in the body. For example, one study measured in an electrocardiogram (ECG) the heart’s electrical field as being about 60 times greater in amplitude than that of brain waves. There is still controversy and disagreement on this subject, but as new technology emerges we will hopefully find a new ways to study electromagnetic processes in the human body. The ultimate question this hypothesis raises is whether the human body merely processes incoming electromagnetic information via the five senses, or does the heart and mind also send out electromagnetic information about our thoughts and feelings? In other words, are we merely receivers of electromagnetic stimuli, or do we also generate and transmit electromagnetic data to the world around us? For example, one study provided intriguing evidence that an exchange of electromagnetic energy produced by the heart occurs when people touch each other, or are in close proximity to each other. The electrocardiogram (ECG) signal of one person was shown to register in another person’s EEG, as well as other areas of the other person’s body. The signal was strongest when the subject were in direct contact, but was also detectable when they were in close proximity to each other, without any physical contact. Mirror Neurons Have you ever noticed that you experience similar sensations in your body when watching a highly engaging activity on television, for example someone participating in an extreme sport, or an actor fighting for his life in a horror film? Why is that when you see an athlete jump for a slam dunk, or a car going over a cliff, you can actually feel the sensation of your own heart racing, or your stomach turning? Scientists attribute this experience to the existence of mirror neurons, a specialized type of brain cell in the frontal cortex. These specialized brain cells do not only respond when we perform an action, they also respond when we see someone else performing the same action. The neural mechanism is involuntary and automatic, which enables us to watch other people and instantly know what they are feeling or experiencing, without having to first think about it Distant Intentionality Have you ever felt someone staring at you, and when you look up or turn around, you catch them in the act. Studies have shown that between 68% and 98% of the population sometimes sense the unseen gaze of another person. Known as Distant Intentionality, this feeling of being stared at has been demonstrated with varying degrees in research studies. A meta-analysis concluded that there are definitely hints of such an effect, but also a shortage of independent replications and theoretical concepts for this phenomenon. Distant Physiological Correlations Can signals travel between the nervous systems of two people who are not in direct physical contact with each other? Several scientific studies have demonstrated that the physiology of one person can affect, or elicit similar responses in another person’s physiology over a distance, without direct touch or contact. For example, in a study of extrasensory electroencephalographic (EEG) induction between identical twins, alpha rhythms were elicited in one of the twins as a result of mechanically stimulating such rhythms in the other twin. Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) correlations were also observed between two human brains when pairs of subjects were allowed to first interact with each other, and were then separated inside semi-silent Faraday chambers. One subject of each pair was then stimulated by flashing lights, which caused the other subject to show ‘transferred potentials’ similar to those evoked in the stimulated subject. In other words, the person not exposed to the light flashes had a similar response in their body over a distance. Emotional Contagion Emotional contagion is a psycho-physiological phenomenon in which one person's emotions and behaviors have been shown to directly trigger similar emotions and behaviors in other people. It is an instantaneous and unconscious process of transmission, through which emotional states or moods literally spread like ‘social viruses.’ Interestingly, some people have a natural ability to transmit these mood changes to others, while some people are more susceptible to be ‘contaminated’ by them. Research also demonstrated that we seem to automatically synchronize our moods with each other in social settings, and that this plays an important role in establishing emotional rapport and ensuring smooth interaction with others. Mass Psychogenic Illness Mass Psychogenic Illness (MPI) or Mass Hysteria is a well-documented phenomenon in which a group of people, crowd or community experience a spontaneous outbreak of similar physical symptoms, behaviors, or psychological stress. Many such outbreaks have been documented in schools, work environments and communities all over the world. Scientists still have no viable explanation for this kind of collective obsessional behavior, or so-called ‘epidemics of the mind.’ For example, one of the more bizarre cases was 'The Dancing Plague' of 1518 which occurred in Strasbourg, France. Hundreds of frenzied people spontaneously started dancing in the streets, leading to several deaths due to heart failure, strokes or exhaustion. Another documented case was The Tanganyika Laughter Epidemic of 1962 in which the villagers in several neighboring communities in Africa engaged in unstoppable laughter for months, after a group of students at a boarding school in Kakasha triggered the giggling. The villagers simply could not stop laughing, and some experienced pain, fainting, skin rashes, bouts of crying and respiratory problems. Physiological Presentiment All of us have experienced gut feelings, forebodings or intuitive hunches about future events that later turned out to be true. There is compelling evidence that the body’s perceptual apparatus may be continuously scanning the future, and that our bodies receive and process information related to intuitive perception. Experiments have demonstrated, for example, that the body can in fact respond to an emotionally arousing stimulus seconds before it is actually experienced. Several studies have been done to measure whether the human nervous system is able to correctly anticipate future events. Some studies focused primarily on electrodermal activity (EDA), while others explored different physiological measurements, including functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and heart rate variability. All of them reported consistent results and demonstrated a small, yet statistically significant form of precognition or presentiment in the human nervous system. One surprising study found that the human heart appears to receive and respond to intuitive information, and that a our heart rate slows down significantly prior to observing future emotional stimuli, as compared to calm stimuli. The human heart was shown to anticipate future emotional responses to external events. Not only is the heart apparently involved in the processing and decoding of intuitive or precognitive information, but it appears to be processed in the same way as conventional sensory input. Neuroscientific Altruism Researchers in the field of Neuroscience have used brain imaging and behavioral studies to demonstrate that the amygdala, a set of neurons located deep in the brain, is significantly larger in people who display traits of extreme altruism, or selfless compassion. The amygdala, which plays an essential role in our processing of emotions and social functioning, has also been found to be considerably smaller in the brains of psychopaths, who are known for their extreme lack of empathy. Furthermore, it was also discovered that the brains of altruists are in general larger than that of the average person. Empath experiences and psychic abilities are not the only unexplained phenomena that continue to challenge the modern scientific mind. A growing number of research studies have also yielded in recent years statistically significant results for other psi phenomena closely associated with psychic empathy, including telepathy, distant healing, survival of consciousness and mind-matter Interaction. Furthermore, researchers are yet to produce feasible explanations for, among other, recorded events of paranormal activity, historic cases of premonition, the phenomenon of military intuition (described by soldiers as the ‘spidey sense’), the mechanism of déjà vu, a plethora of reported near-death and related metaphysical experiences, and the mystifying inner workings of the mind-body connection and the placebo effect, to name but a few. Just because these phenomena have not been measured or feasibly explained, does not mean they do not exist. The thousands of people having these experiences cannot all be deluded or functionally insane! For the psychic empath extra-sensory perception and sentient energy exchange is a daily reality and deeply personal matter. I am fortunate that I have an educational background in Psychology and Sociology, and that I have become empowered as an empath through my personal spiritual practice and professional endeavors. After much initial bewilderment in my youth, I have over the years gained a much better understanding of my psychic and paranormal experiences through my own ongoing research, study and experimentation. But for many other people who share my experiences, the journey remains confusing or frustrating, sometimes embarrassing, and even traumatic. The current lack of scientific support and mainstream skepticism is not helping to alleviate our plight. The field of social neuroscience and in particular the investigation of empathy is still very young, and the latter has not even reached its adolescence yet. Having had such a promising and eager childhood, though, it seem reasonable to expect that with further aging, we will develop more elaborate theoretical models and more rigorous empirical tools to ultimately gain more conclusive insights ~ Lammab and Majdandžić ​But I rest assured in the knowledge that progress in science, and a paradigm shift, sometimes comes as a surprise when it is least expected. It is a well-known fact that all the pieces of the puzzle do not always fit when it comes to scientific data collection and interpretation. And sometimes scientists choose to ignore these discrepancies as irrelevant, or not belonging to the subject at hand, or simply dismiss it as a misinterpretation of the data, especially if it does not meet their original objectives, or the needs of whoever funds their research projects. Despite all this, anomalies will continue to come along from time to time that violate expectations, or even clash with currently held beliefs about the laws of the universe. There are many examples of scientific exceptions to the rule which was once rejected as ‘fringe science’, but eventually became accepted as mainstream thought, including The Big Bang theory, Heliocentrism, and the fact that germs cause disease, to name but a few. I have faith in modern science and technology to change our world for the better. ​I also firmly believe in the power of Divine inspiration and intervention which shapes and guides our existence in this time-space reality. When the student is ready the teacher will appear. As a species we may not be ready for a complete revelation or true understanding of the experience of being an empath, intuitive, sensitive, or psychic. But in time these personal experiences will be confirmed by innovative technologies and new scientific discoveries. In the future the psychic empath will inhabit the mainstream metropolis of human understanding. © 2018 Anthon St. Maarten ABOUT THE AUTHOR Anthon St. Maarten is a psychic medium and destiny coach with a global clientele of thought leaders, business executives, celebrities, politicians, academics, and luminaries in the arts and sciences in more than thirty countries spanning five continents.

Psychic feeling, empathy, or emotion, also known as emotive telepathy, emotional transfer, or clairempathy, is often erroneously referred to simply as 'empathy,' which is a gross underestimation of true clairempathic psychic ability. Psychics and mediums with this affective perception preference essentially function as emotional surrogates and empathic polygraphs, as we actively embody the feelings, mood states, motivations, and emotions of others. Clairempathy is not ‘normal' empathy, much less mere sympathy. In the context of authentic psychic perception there is a distinct difference between being empathetic towards others, as opposed to metaphysically perceiving and embodying empathic psychic impressions. EMPATHETIC VERSUS EMPATHIC Ordinary empathy is the ability to observe, understand, and sympathize with the mental and emotional states of other people. According to standard scientific models, empathy has three core traits: The first is the ability to recognize emotions in others based on various verbal and non-verbal communication cues, such as tone of voice, facial expression, and body language. The second is the ability for perspective taking; to cognitively understand the other person’s mental-emotional state and place yourself ‘in their shoes.’ The third is the capacity for sincere compassion and sympathy in response to the pain and suffering of others, or to ‘feel for them.’ Empathy is a psychosocial skill or trait that all people possess, although not necessarily automatically. Mentally healthy people typically have healthy levels of empathy, especially if they have been appropriately socialized growing up.[1] However, people possess varying levels of empathy, as opposed to ‘apathy’ (lack of interest or caring), based on a variety of factors.[2] Most of us are therefore to some extent empathetic towards others and can identify, understand, and sympathize with the feelings and emotional experiences of others. This is known as a vicarious experience — it is an empathetic response to the observation of emotions in others. Vicarious empathy in response to social cues is quite common in the general population and an important basis for social behavior and interaction.[3] In fact, it is so integral to prosocial behavior and our coexistence that a lack of empathy has been shown to cause severe psychological and social dysfunction, including psychopathy [4] and pathological narcissism.[5] While ordinary empathy involves affective (emotional), and cognitive (thought) processes based on observation, logical thinking, perspective-taking, reasoning, and an appropriate emotional response, the experiences of the clairempath or ‘psychic empath,’ who has an unusual capacity for shared emotion and affective embodiment is an entirely different matter. Clairempathy is the empathic embodiment of energy data that has no rational, logical, or subjective origin or explanation. It is essentially a shared awareness of another sentient being's feelings, emotions, mood states, and motivations, instead of a mere understanding or observation it. Empathic psychic impressions are spontaneous and visceral — it is typically a strong emotional experience without any logic, reason, or personal origin. Just like the claircognizant ‘knows,’ the clairvoyant ‘sees,' and the clairaudient ‘hears,’ the clairempath feels. Clairempathic perceptions are not the empath’s personal emotions, nor are they cognitive observations or interpretations of another person’s emotional state. Clairempaths also do not necessarily sympathize or ‘feel with’ the other person. For example, I can feel someone else’s anxiety or guilt when they are telling a lie, but that does not mean I pity them. I simply ‘feel’ what they are feeling emotionally in that moment, whether I sympathize with them, or not. If someone ahead of me in a slow supermarket line is becoming extremely impatient and angry, without outwardly showing it, I can empathically ‘feel’ her rage (and most likely also perceive a clairsomatic ‘sensation’ of her heart rate and blood pressure rising.) If I choose to pay further attention, I might also perceive claircognitive information about the circumstances in her life that may be causing her to feel so intolerant and irritable. But this does not automatically imply I will personally identify with her emotions (empathy), or feel sorry for her (sympathy). NONLOCAL EMOTION The clairempath actively perceives or embodies the emotions, motivations, and mood states of others. We do not merely observe what others may be feeling, we actually ‘feel’ it ourselves, as if it were our own feelings — sometimes not even immediately knowing whose feelings they might be. Psychic empathy is therefore a form of transpersonal empathy. It is metaphysical and nonsensory in origins. It does not rely on the clairempath observing any sensory clues, or verbal and non-verbal communication. In fact, the clairempath does not even have to see, or physically be in the same place as the other person to perceive these feeling impressions. I constantly embody the feelings of others without needing to know anything about them, or having direct contact or interaction with them. In fact, I can perceive the feelings of people on the other side of the planet. Just like claircognitive or ‘sapient’ energy data is nonlocal and omnipresent in the universal field of consciousness, so too is clairempathic or ‘sentient’ energy data. AFFECTIVE PSI The emotive or affective aspects of psychic phenomena seldom receive much attention in parapsychology and psi research. This lack of interest is probably another consequence of the orthodox Newtonian approach to psychic research. It is obviously simpler to verify empirical facts in a laboratory, rather than ‘ineffable feelings.’ Researcher Christine Hardy however reports some psi research does point to the significant role of emotion or affect in psychic phenomena, instead of it purely consisting of mental (mind-brain) content. Spontaneous psi experiences are often triggered by emotionally charged events; this could, of course, be due to a form of selective reporting, but at least some investigations of target emotionality and psi in telepathy tests suggest otherwise.[6] Hardy cites experimental ganzfeld and telepathy data that finds “emotionally and / or sensorially rich targets seem to be more conducive to psi than highly abstract or neutral ones,”[7] and “affective relationships between sender and receiver seem to enhance success in telepathy tasks.”[8] She also adds that this finding is consistent with what has been generally observed in spontaneous cases of psi.[9] EMOTIONAL CONTAGION A psychological phenomenon related to clairempathy, that has been studied more extensively, is the phenomenon of ‘emotional contagion,’ in which one person's emotions can directly trigger similar emotions in others. It is an instantaneous and unconscious process by which emotional states or moods literally spread like ‘social viruses.’ For example, a 2012 study finds depression can be highly contagious among teenagers within a certain social group. “Over time, adolescents' depressive symptoms increasingly converged toward the average levels of their peers.”[10] Research further shows that we seem to ‘synchronize our feelings’ with each other in social settings and that feeling strong emotions can make people’s brains ‘tick together.’[11] CRISIS EMPATHY Clairempathy is also observed in the psi phenomenon of crisis impression. A crisis impression is a sudden psychic awareness that another person is in extreme danger, or worse, that they have died. A typical crisis impression is usually an inexplicable ‘shift in mood’ at the time of a loved one’s death — to the extent that the subject is overcome with sadness or despair, or conversely, experience elation or a profound sense of inner peace. Crisis impressions are also characterized by an abrupt change in the person’s emotional or mood state that is not caused any apparent external ‘trigger,’ and these feelings always coincide with an unreported event or death involving a loved one, which the perceiver at the time is not yet aware of.[12] MASS HYSTERIA An extreme example of clairempathy is the unusual phenomenon known as mass psychogenic illness or ‘mass hysteria.’ It is a well-documented psychosocial phenomenon in which a group of people or a crowd, or an entire community, experience a spontaneous outbreak of shared psycho-physiological distress. One of the more bizarre cases is the Dancing Plague of 1518 in Strasbourg, France. Hundreds of frenzied people spontaneously began to dance in the streets, leading to several deaths due to heart failure, stroke, and exhaustion.[13] Another documented case is the Tanganyika Laughter Epidemic of 1962, in which villagers in several neighboring communities engaged in unstoppable laughter for months, after a group of students at a boarding school started the initial giggling. The villagers could not stop laughing, and some even experienced pain, fainting, skin rashes, bouts of crying, and respiratory problems.[14] Similar ‘mass hysteria’ outbreaks have been documented in schools, workplaces, and communities all over the world. Science currently has no conclusive explanation for this phenomenon of collective obsessional behavior, or so-called ‘epidemics of the mind.’[15] A recent example has been the widespread hoarding of toilet paper and other essentials, including the emotional outbursts of manic buyers fighting over these ‘coveted’ items in stores, with the advent of the Covid-19 pandemic.[16] Psychologist Samah Khaled Zahran believes the origins of these phenomena may be found in the human biofield, or human energy field (aura), also known as the morphic field. He proposes the human biofield serves as an energy umbrella or atmosphere that represents human physical and psychological status that connects us to our surroundings and helps us to adapt to our environment.[17] A 2014 cross-disciplinary study confirms the hypothesises that emotional states generate corresponding metabolic bio-magnetic fields that radiate in patterns reflecting these emotional states, and that these energy fields can be shared in a crowd through paramagnetic sensitivity that may be proportional to crowd numbers.[18] EMPATHIC MEDIUMSHIP When I do mediumship readings, I often tell clients that the dearly departed no longer feel the ‘petty’ human emotions we so often indulge in, but they certainly make me ‘feel’ these emotions while I am channeling. The empathic energy data of the deceased is in my experience always loving, compassionate, peaceful, and unmistakably selfless. It is never hateful, angry, vengeful, jealous, remorseful, or even apologetic — but I do experience such negative emotions when I channel the akashic information of the deceased person. The energy data of the dearly departed never ‘tells’ me they are angry or sad (because they are indeed not). Instead, their energy essentially causes me to feel angry or sad ‘on their behalf’ as the ‘medium.’ Some clients, who have been victims of family trauma or abuse, typically do not care much for this, nor do they wish to understand how everyone on the other side can always just be so ‘pollyanna’ happy and positive. Instead, they want to know that their parent or grandparent is truly sorry, or that their sibling or child is sincerely begging for their forgiveness. Experiencing such emotive impressions can therefore be exceptionally healing for the sitter. But to meaningfully convey this information from the akasha, I need to function as a psychic surrogate or ‘channel,’ and actually ‘feel’ the emotional significance of what is being channeled. SENTIENT SHAPESHIFTING It is important to note clairempathy is not limited only to humans. Author Dawn Baumann Brunke, for example, reveals how through the art of shapeshifting or therianthropy (moving in and out of shared awareness with other sentient beings) one can experience different forms of consciousness ‘through the eyes’ of other beings, and integrate these experiences into a greater awareness of our own being.[19] Excerpt from The Sensible Psychic: A Leading-Edge Guide To True Psychic Perception. © 2022 Anthon St. Maarten REFERENCES [1] Wagers, K.

Human beings are creatures of habit and therefore it is vital to establish a consistent, daily routine of spiritual practice after your spiritual awakening. Your own set of metaphysical rites and daily rituals will ensure the strength and clarity of your inner guidance system. Awakening, reconnecting and realigning with the Divine Self is no doubt the most important first step in personal spiritual growth. To rediscover your Higher Self and tap into your Higher Consciousness is usually a very awe-inspiring and life-changing experience. But your new found spiritual awareness and rediscovered Divine origins may soon lose its power to transform your life if you do not adopt a new lifestyle that includes some kind of consistent spiritual practice. ​Divine Living and spiritual practice goes hand in hand. A Divine Life is impossible to achieve without some form of regular spiritual practice, in order to increase and maintain your connection and alignment with the Divine Self. What you come to know and believe about your own spiritual origins is meaningless, unless you have a direct and personal daily experience of receiving guidance from your inner Divinity. There isn’t anything except your own life that can be used as ground for your spiritual practice. Spiritual practice is your life, twenty-four hours a day ~ Pema Chodron The only way to achieve this is to practice your new awareness and beliefs on a daily basis. In our human state we sometimes too easily slide back into old habits, and with the constant onslaught of materialism, misinformation, fear conditioning, scientific skepticism and the distraction of mass entertainment and popular culture, you have a very limited probability of expanding your new found spiritual awareness, unless you engage yourself consciously in some form of habitual and frequent spiritual practice. Spiritual practices are actions and activities we undertake on a regular basis for the purpose of cultivating spiritual development. There are a plethora of spiritual practices available, both ancient and modern, that you can apply in your own life to sustain your spiritual awareness and Divine connection. Regular spiritual activity will fine-tune your alignment with the Divine Self, improve the clarity of your inner guidance, and consistently nurture and develop your ability to manifest abundance. ​When undertaking any spiritual practice it is important to bear in mind that we are all different. We all have our own beliefs, temperaments, personalities, interests and personal preferences. Your beliefs and spiritual practices will depend a lot on your personal spiritual journey, your past life experiences, and your karmic quest. Each of us has a unique Life Plan, Soul Purpose and Life Calling to achieve in this lifetime. A spiritual practice that is ideal for one person’s soul growth may simply not work at all for another. Therefore it is recommended that you seek intuitive guidance from your Divine Self on which practices will best suit your unique needs in this lifetime. Ultimately, it does not matter which practice or discipline you choose, as long as you incorporate it into your daily living and apply it consistently. Methods Of Spiritual Practice Your spiritual practice is a matter of personal choice and may include any of the following: Affirmations Astral Travel & Projection Breathing Exercises Ceremonies, Rites & Rituals Channeling Charity & Acts of Kindness Cleansing (Fasting, Energy Clearing, Sage burning, Baptism) Creating Sacred Space Dancing Divination (Tarot, Astrology, I Ching, Numerology, Runes) Dreamwork Energy Work Gratitude Journaling Healing Practices (Acupuncture, Reiki, Shiatsu) Past Life Regression Inducing Trance / Altered States of Consciousness Mandala Meditation / Guided Meditation Music (playing, listening to) Physical Activity (Yoga, T’ai chi ch’uan, Aikido) Pilgrimage Prayer Readings (Empathic, Psychic, Mediumship, Akasha, Aura) Religious Worship & Practice Shamanic Practice Singing & Chanting Study & Contemplation Vision Boards Visualization Excerpt adapted from the book Divine Living: The Essential Guide To Your True Destiny. © 2012 Anthon St Maarten ABOUT THE AUTHOR Anthon St. Maarten is a psychic medium and destiny coach with a global clientele of thought leaders, business executives, celebrities, politicians, academics, and luminaries in the arts and sciences in more than thirty countries spanning five continents.

SIGN UP NOW ⟶ The 3 P’s Of Authentic Psychic Development True psychic and mediumship development is not about instant results, quick fixes, performative divination, or hobbyist entertainment. Real psychic development requires patience, presence, and persistence. ► Patience True psychic awareness and the perceptual process develop at its own pace. Some breakthroughs happen quickly, while others require sustained study, practice, and integration over time. Every journey is unique to the individual and there are no shortcuts. ► Presence Psychic perception works best when you are grounded, calm, centered , and mentally and emotionally settled. Learning to become fully present creates more favorable conditions for psychic and mediumship channeling. ► Persistence Consistent practice matters. Repeated application, honest self-observation, and continued engagement with your development build greater confidence, stability, and skill over time. Unlock Your Psychic Potential ™ is designed for meaningful, sustainable development rather than shortcuts. The students who progress most effectively are those willing to remain patient, present, and persistent throughout the process. SIGN UP NOW ⟶ What People Say I’ve been trying to sort out my abilities and experiences all my life. Mainstream and long accepted definitions or norms do not always hold up to the ways that psychic and mediumship abilities themselves seem to be manifesting with less sharply divided edges. This author perceived that and proposes some new terms to accommodate those changes. This book is a great read and chock full of helpful information! Marci Tsohonis Amazon Anthon's book is one of the most insightful and thought-provoking books in the science/spirituality genre. It will take you to places you may not have previously encountered, and is highly recommended. Philip Commella Author of The Heaven at the End of Science & Host of Conversations Beyond Science Podcast This is an excellent read for new psychics (beginners) and for professional evidential mediums. This book enlightens you on what you should know before you get started in this field of spirituality and speaking with spirit; along with continuing your education as an evidential medium even if you have received this gift as a child. Never stop learning...If you are either a psychic or medium this book should be in you library. Andrea H Barnes & Noble Anthon is incredible! I have years of working with many exceptional mediums and he is one I add to my list of the best! He is very accurate in getting names and details about people who come in with messages. He is authentic and is tapping into what the Other Side wishes to communicate. There are few mediums who can be as precise and accurate in what they bring through. I am scheduling more sessions with him and am thrilled that I found him. Carol Schmidt Best Psychic Directory Anthon has a true gift and I have never had anyone be so accurate in all the time I’ve been on this planet. Not only is he a gifted medium but you can tell he has a beautiful heart. He gave me information to help me move forward in my life to complete my calling powerfully and help me realize where I am stuck. I lost my mom six months ago and was able to communicate with her and my dad in a way that I know it truly was both of them. I urge you to reach out to him for a true experience. Tanya Newbould-Del Pozzo Best Psychic Directory I chose Anthon to read for me because of his intelligence, spiritual viewpoints, depth of knowledge - and he did not disappoint; his reading was enlightening, empathic, empowering, spiritual and practical all at the same time. It was the single-most powerful reading that I have ever experienced. As a practicing reader myself, I can say that Anthon is a psychic's psychic! I highly recommend him! Celine Fleur Best Psychic Directory Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Is this program suitable for beginners? Yes, the training program is suitable for all levels. No prior psychic or mediumship training, divination experience, or special equipment is required. The program begins with foundational concepts and progresses toward advanced perception, channeling, and professional practice. Can psychic ability be developed through training and practice? The program is based on both modern scientific evidence and millennia of spiritual wisdom suggesting that psychic potential varies between individuals. Appropriate training and practice can develop the underlying traits, awareness, perceptual processes, and channeling skills associated with psychic ability, but the extent of a student’s ultimate success will depend on a combination of nature and nurture, including their individual baseline potential.One of the key benefits of this development program is that students first undergo an extensive self-assessment and self-discovery process using a series of measurement tools designed to estimate their baseline psychic potential trait scores, strengths, development needs, and training priorities.Based on their scores, assessment outcomes, and development needs analysis students can then make more informed decisions about their continued psychic development journey and focus their training where it is likely to be most beneficial,. Is there a way to find out if I have any psychic abilities? Until now, there has been no consolidated, research-informed way to assess your own psychic development potential.This program has changed that in a significant way. Unlock Your Psychic Potential™ features the proprietary Psychic Potential Baseline™ self-assessment questionnaire and a series of specialized assessment tools based on the Psychic Potential Trait Constellation™, designed to evaluate your psychic awareness capacity and development potential across twelve interconnected trait clusters.Your results help identify your individual strengths, development needs, and training priorities so you can approach your psychic development with greater clarity, focus, and realistic expectations. Does this program develop both intuition and psychic ability? No. This program does not treat intuition and psychic ability as interchangeable terms for the same or similar phenomena. True psychic ability, perception, and channeling encompass considerably more than simply developing or “trusting” your intuition.In the 1980s and 1990s, some psychics and mediums began rebranding themselves as “intuitives,” partly to distance their work from the negative stereotypes associated with the word psychic. Although this may originally have been a well-intended marketing strategy, it also contributed to decades of subsequent confusion about what psychic ability actually is.In the Unlock Your Psychic Potential™ program, based on the research-informed conceptual models proposed in A Unified Conceptual Triad of Psychic Perception, clairintuitive perception is only one type of Psychic Impression Preference™ among several other forms of psychic impression. Premonitory intuition therefore has a legitimate place in psychic development and practice, but it does not represent the full range, complexity, or multidimensional nature of authentic psychic perception and channeling.This distinction matters because correct terminology shapes how students understand and develop their practice. Some newly awakened psychics and mediums unknowingly spend years trying to develop their psychic channeling ability or mediumship by following recycled “intuition” teachings rooted in an outdated marketing convention, rather than research evidence, spiritual wisdom, or the lived phenomenology of psychic and mediumship practice through the ages.Unlock Your Psychic Potential™ therefore teaches actual psychic ability, perception, and channeling. The goal is not to rebrand psychic ability into something more socially comfortable or mainstream friendly, but to represent it more authentically and empower students with an accurate understanding. What is the difference between psychic ability and mediumship? Psychic channeling and mediumship are not different practices, separate paths or individual gifts, but branches of the same tree. The distinction lies primarily in who or what is being perceived or channeled. The underlying perceptual process is fundamentally the same. Psychic perception is the foundation of both psychic channeling and mediumship.The difference between being a psychic and being a medium is therefore largely descriptive. Both draw upon the same underlying capacity for psychic awareness and perception; what differs is the focus and nature of the information being channeled.Psychic channeling, or psychic reading, involves the mental-metaphysical perception of information relating primarily to living people, present-day circumstances, and energetic conditions. This may include channeled impressions concerning:past events or previous mental, emotional, and energetic states;present situations or current mental, emotional, and energetic conditions;future potentials, probabilities, and predestined outcomes.Psychic readings typically focus on practical life guidance and personal insight relating to areas such as romance and relationships, family life, health challenges, career direction, business strategy, financial decisions, emotional well-being, and spiritual growth.Mediumship channeling draws upon the same underlying faculty of psychic perception but directs it toward nonphysical or discarnate energies and intelligences. These may include deceased loved ones, ancestors or ancestral collectives, spirit guides and guardians, ascended masters, angelic beings, and other collective, archetypal, or soul-group consciousnesses.The different forms of mediumship, including evidential, trance, and physical mediumship, should therefore not be understood as completely separate perceptual processes requiring entirely different psychic abilities. They differ primarily in their focus, expression, and the nature of the information or phenomena being channeled.From this perspective, a medium is essentially a psychic channeler with a specialized perceptual focus or preference.Mediumship channeling can serve many different purposes, including:providing validation of the survival of consciousness after physical death;helping resolve unresolved emotions such as grief, guilt, or regret;offering comfort and a continued sense of connection with loved ones who have passed;providing insight or encouragement regarding present life challenges;conveying support, affirmation, or guidance aligned with the sitter’s highest good;deepening understanding of spiritual reality and the multidimensional nature of consciousness;facilitating energetic intervention, healing, or restoration;communicating universal wisdom or higher guidance;supporting spiritual awakening, enlightenment, or activation.Unlike conventional training programs, Unlock Your Psychic Potential™ does not divide students rigidly into categories of “psychic” or “medium.” Based on both research evidence and spiritual wisdom that is not limited to just one belief system or tradition, this development program regards this distinction as unnecessarily limiting because the underlying psychic perception process is fundamentally the same across all forms of channeling and reading.Rather than placing students into restrictive boxes, the program focuses on helping them master the core process of psychic perception and essential channeling skills. They can then apply this according to their own perceptual preferences, professional interests, spiritual beliefs, and personal calling.The goal is not to decide whether you are either a psychic or a medium, but to develop the underlying perceptual capacity that allows you to serve in whatever way you ultimately choose or feel called to. Does the course include Tarot cards or other divination tools? No. The program focuses on developing the process of actual psychic perception and mediumship itself. Students learn to channel readings, which does not require the use of cards or other divination tools. How is this training program different from other psychic development courses? Most psychic courses focus on divination tools, esoteric practices, or spiritual teachings and belief systems. This program focuses on the actual foundation of all psychic and mediumship work: authentic psychic ability, genuine perception, and the skill to channel accurate readings. It is built on original conceptual models developed from decades of practitioner research, professional experience, and outcomes-based curriculum design. This course content you will not find anywhere else. I have already taken several psychic development courses and workshops. Is this program still worth my time? Very likely, yes. Psychic development training varies widely in quality, depth, terminology, and educational rigor, and many conventional courses recycle the same esoteric concepts, faith-based biases, myths, folklore, and misconceptions.Unlock Your Psychic Potential™ is next-generation and groundbreaking. The program grew from a questioning practitioner’s frustration and disillusionment with the status quo and a life-long search for answers, and was ultimately created to offer something different. The program introduces original conceptual models informed by 150 years of psychic research, proprietary assessment instruments never before available in any psychic training setting, modernized terminology, science-informed perspectives, and a phenomenological approach that reflects the lived experiences of authentic psychics and mediums worldwide. It also provides a structured approach to psychic development that you are unlikely to encounter elsewhere.Even experienced psychics, mediums, and extensively trained practitioners are often surprised by how much of the program challenges what they previously learned, clarifies concepts they thought they already understood, or corrects myths and inaccurate information that remain widespread in the field.So, if you already have substantial experience, you may not need another beginner-level psychic course. You may, however, benefit considerably from a program that asks you to re-examine what you think you know and empowers you with a new framework for understanding and refining your practice. Prepare to relearn most of what you thought you knew. Can this program help me if I've tried other courses but still feel stuck? Yes. The most common reason psychic and mediumship students feel stuck is that their previous training focused on psychic-adjacent subjects rather than the core process of true psychic perception. This program returns to that foundation, replacing confusion and misdirection with structured, focused development built around your unique psychic profile. Unlike most psychic courses, the content is not based solely on the course creator's personal views and opinions, but on spiritual wisdom traditions, scientific research findings, and the documented experiences of prominent psychics and mediums throughout history. Will this program prepare me to work as a professional psychic or medium? Yes, but only if you follow the complete structured training pathway. The full program progresses from psychic development and perception through structured psychic and mediumship channeling, professional practice, business development, and entrepreneurship.If your goal is to build a professional psychic or mediumship practice, or a related business, it is recommended that you complete all four certification programs, the required assessed readings, and the professional project to qualify for the Professional Psychic Practitioner Diploma.By the time you complete the full training pathway, you are likely to have already begun working with paying clients and gaining real-world professional experience. Do I have to complete the entire program? No. The program is intentionally structured so that individual modular courses can be taken according to your interests, development needs, and goals without committing to the full certification pathway or a professional career path. Students are welcome to take as many individual modular courses as they wish. Enroll in individual courses that interest you, free or paid, in any order and at your own pace. Start, pause, and finish whenever it suits you.However, certificates are not issued for individual modular courses. To qualify for a certification, you must complete all required modular courses within that certification pathway and meet the relevant course completion and certification requirements. Will I get personal support, coaching, or supervised practice? Yes, but only if you choose to participate in the Live Programs or enroll in Private Mentorship tailored to your personal training and development needs.Both options are available exclusively through the Psychic Development Academy on Skool and provide additional opportunities for guided practice, personalized feedback, accountability, and direct support. Will I receive a certificate? Yes, but to be certified you need to complete all required courses, assessments, and practical requirements for each of the four successive certification program.Certificate in Psychic Development Courses 1 - 10Certificate in Psychic Perception Courses 11 - 16 + Certificate in Psychic DevelopmentCertificate in Psychic Channeling Courses 17 & 18 + Certificate in Psychic PerceptionCertificate in Psychic Entrepreneurship Courses 19 & 20 + Certificate in Psychic ChannelingDiploma: Professional Psychic Practitioner All four certificates + three assessed readings + completion of a professional projectNote: certificates are not issued for individual modular courses.

The more regularly you engage, the more certain your progress will be. Where can I take the courses? The program is available online at the Psychic Development Academy on Skool and on the Udemy platform. The academy on Skool provides the complete certification training program, while Udemy offers only the individual self-paced modular courses. Is this training program safe for someone with a history of mental illness? This is an important mattter you need to discuss with your healthcare provider before starting any form of psychic training.Due to the nature of psychic phenomena and psychic development practices, this training program involves extensive personal reflection, self-inquiry, and engagement with topics related to mental awareness and emotional experiences, as well as personal history, spiritual development, and psychological and trauma-related material.
