I have to admit I hate the time period psychic protection.

I feel it induces worry and opens the doorway for insecurities, superstition and encourages the need for ritual within an area of our lives which is as natural to us as the ability to breath.

Being psychic is natural and it is as natural as to us as breathing: we are all psychic. Having a sixth sense or a psychic ability allows us to be caring, sensitive individuals and so help those that need help without them having to ask for it.

It could possibly also allow us to sense or feel which individuals are safe to be round and who we should always avoid. Additionally it is a deeper perception or awareness which helps us to work out what is correct for our own life journey and what is wrong. Whether or not we listen to those instincts or not, well that is a completely different matter and is commonly how we learn life lessons.

As quickly as we start our psychic development, we’re told we should protect ourselves.

It’s drilled into us. It’s drilled so well and so deeply that I can bear in mind my very first (and final with this teacher) spiritual workshop as if it have been yesterday. I still shudder on the memory.

“We should protect before and after every session. We should remain protected always!” I was told by a slightly stern lady. And being inquisitive and keen, I felt I ought to ask what I was actually protecting myself against. Well, how would I ever know if I didn’t ask?

Only you see, if there were any green slime monsters going round then I might quite like to find one and keep it. I have sons and they love things like that. Dinosaurs, monsters, blood, guts, anything consuming anything else and particularly slime. Slime would be a definite bonus.

“Energies! You might be protecting yourself towards energies!” I was enthusiastically informed.

“What kind?” I inquired. Well, I used to be a science teacher… the great kind; the kind who is genuinely keen on what is going on around me… it is in my nature to ask questions. After all if we don’t ask, then how will we be taught?

“Negative energies!” came the reply in a voice laden with doom and dread.

I’d have asked for larger particulars but by this time I realised everyone was evident at me with annoyance and dare I say possibly a smidgen of negative energy.

I took the hint and settled back making an attempt to recollect if there was a physics lesson about negative energy I had missed. Now I have to say I am not a fan of physics. I am positive it has its place in the workings of life but typically speaking physics was just a lesson which we had to sit by way of earlier than we got to escape to go and get lunch. I confess I often spent the complete hour planning what I’d chose from the school canteen moderately than take note of prisms and er… well, I know we definitely covered prisms. I am sure we will need to have covered more than this however I do feel I have just made my point relatively well.

Burger on a bun, chips and gravy by the way was the standard alternative of lunch just in case you were wondering.

And actually, thinking about physics lessons, with hindsight if we had been taught about negative energy I am sure I’ll well have paid more consideration to the lesson and less to my potential lunch! It sounds a lot more interesting than Prisms!

I decided that I did not particularly like spiritual workshops primarily based upon concern and so very little fact or precise knowledge, so I never went back again.

After all, I had managed these 30 or so years without being protected and I had not once seen a green slime monster. I would have remembered. I’d have probably picked it up and sneaked it into my bedroom along with a host of different beasties which I felt the need to ‘rescue’ and hide from my Mother.

There were usually at the very least three animals/birds/bugs and so forth within my tiny 8 ft by 12 ft bedroom all under orders to stay quiet, not eat each other and positively no poop. They hardly ever listened to me.

I’m positive by now you realise that my sons get their love of nature and gore from their biologist mother.

To this day however I hate with an absolute passion the phrase ‘psychic protection’.

Why do I dislike the time period so much?

Glad you asked.

I dislike it because in utilizing the precise word ‘protection’ we’re implying that there’s something negative out there which is out to get us that we need protecting from and this merely isn’t true.

We’re the truth is using suggestive words with very negative connotations to elucidate a process which is actually fairly amazing and an necessary part of our psychic development. I will clarify however first let’s change that horrible phrase straight away to 1 which is more comforting, nicer and possibly even ever-so slightly positive. I’m sure it is feasible if we try. How about psychic padding? There. Doesn’t that feel completely different?

Softer and gentler maybe?

Psychic padding is needed to assist buffer us from the energies of those around us and certainly to buffer others from our own energies: particularly earlier than we develop to an advanced level where we understand what being psychic means.

We’d like psychic padding at first simply because we’re very aware of the energies around us. As psychics we’re ‘sensitives’ and it is these energies to which we are sensitive. See. That is not too difficult now could be it and even higher, it is fear-free.
