I have to admit I hate the term psychic protection.

I really feel it induces fear and opens the doorway for insecurities, superstition and encourages the necessity for ritual within an space of our lives which is as natural to us because 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 permits us to be caring, sensitive people and so assist those that need help without them having to ask for it.

It will probably additionally permit us to sense or feel which individuals are safe to be round and who we should avoid. It is also a deeper insight or awareness which helps us to work out what is correct for our own life journey and what is wrong. Whether we listen to those instincts or not, well that is a completely different matter and is often how we be taught life lessons.

As quickly as we begin 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 last with this instructor) spiritual workshop as if it have been yesterday. I still shudder on the memory.

“We must protect before and after each session. We should stay protected at all times!” I was told by a moderately stern lady. And being inquisitive and keen, I felt I should ask what I used to be truly protecting myself against. Well, how would I ever know if I didn’t ask?

Only you see, if there have been any green slime monsters going around then I would quite like to search out one and keep it. I have sons and so they love things like that. Dinosaurs, monsters, blood, guts, anything eating anything else and particularly slime. Slime can be a definite bonus.

“Energies! You are protecting yourself against energies!” I used to be enthusiastically informed.

“What kind?” I inquired. Well, I was a science teacher… the nice kind; the kind who’s genuinely excited about what is going on around me… it is in my nature to ask questions. After all if we don’t ask, then how do we study?

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

I would have asked for larger details however by this time I realised everybody was glaring at me with annoyance and dare I say probably 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’ve to say I’m not a fan of physics. I’m sure it has its place in the workings of life but usually speaking physics was just a lesson which we had to sit by means of earlier than we received to flee to go and get lunch. I confess I typically spent the entire hour planning what I’d chose from the school canteen slightly than pay attention to prisms and er… well, I know we definitely covered prisms. I’m positive we must have covered more than this however I do feel I’ve just made my level moderately well.

Burger on a bun, chips and gravy by the way was the usual choice 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’m certain I could well have paid more attention to the lesson and less to my potential lunch! It sounds a lot more interesting than Prisms!

I made a decision that I did not particularly like spiritual workshops based upon worry and so very little fact or actual knowledge, so I by no means went back again.

After all, I had managed these 30 or so years without being protected and I had not as soon as 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 have been normally a minimum of three animals/birds/bugs and so on within my tiny 8 ft by 12 ft bedroom all under orders to stay quiet, not eat each other and certainly no poop. They rarely listened to me.

I am certain by now you realise that my sons get their love of nature and gore from their biologist mother.

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

Why do I dislike the term so much?

Glad you asked.

I dislike it because in using the precise word ‘protection’ we’re implying that there’s something negative on the market which is out to get us that we need protecting from and this simply will not be true.

We are in actual fact using suggestive words with very negative connotations to explain a process which is definitely fairly wonderful and an essential part of our psychic development. I will clarify but first let’s change that horrible phrase straight away to at least one which is more comforting, nicer and maybe even ever-so slightly positive. I’m certain it is possible if we try. How about psychic padding? There. Does not that really feel completely different?

Softer and gentler perhaps?

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

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