The mind of a psychic medium
Within this blog, I will explain what the mind of a psychic medium is really like. This is a question that I get asked a lot. Furthermore, I will go into detail about what it’s really like to work with the spirit world. And how to awaken your own Mediumship Senses.
What is the mind of a psychic medium like?
Overall, the mind of a psychic medium is no different than anybody else’s. To work with the spirit world is a real privilege and vocation. But in order to work with the spirit world on a daily basis to a high standard you always need to think outside the box.
Working as a psychic medium takes time to achieve the confidence and self-understanding needed for mediumship. A lot of Mediumship is about confidence and self-trust. Again learning from previous readings you’ve had and also through life experience.
Working with the spirit world and having the spirit world communicate with us is like having a daydream. However, it is a daydream that has feelings and sensations. The spirit world has many different ways of communicating with the psychic medium.
Psychic mediums live a normal life like everybody else. There is absolutely nothing unique about being a psychic medium. It is just a different life choice. Importantly, it is important for a psychic medium to close off to the spirit world when they are not working. And then turn themselves back on when they are working.
What do psychic mediums see in their mind?
All of us not only psychic mediums have three main senses;
- Clairvoyance (clear seeing)
- Clairaudience (clear hearing)
- Clairsentience (clear feeling)
Here they are, there are more however, these are the most well-known and most recognized in spirituality. Clairvoyance is the sense that involves seeing images in the mind. These can be anything from a spirit person who is communicating with the medium. Also, it can be anything that links with the spirit world.
Details are absolutely vital in the Mediumship. Such as; names, how the spirit that is communicating passed to the spirit world, their personalities, their interests and so on.
Often mediums will see images in their mind of memories that they have experienced. Importantly, this is a major part of Mediumship. Spirit communication relies a lot on your previous life experiences although it can be quite hard to explain I will do my best.
For example, if I had a severe car accident that I can remember very strongly in my mind. Or if I witnessed somebody else have one then if a spirit is communicating who passed the spirit world through a car accident those images that I have experienced might be playing in my mind.
What makes a good psychic medium
In order to be a good psychic medium, you need to be aware of a lot of things. Many things make up a psychic medium it is not all about having the gift. It is about everything that comes with it.
What is very important to understand is that you must understand on a deep and empathetic level how the clients are feeling. Working with a spirit world is a very emotional and delicate practice.
Empathy is what makes a very good psychic medium. Being able to not only feel how the clients are feeling but also how the spirit world is feeling as they communicate. From the spirit world, they have just as many feelings as the physical world.
Here is a list of a few things that you must consider to be a good psychic medium:
- Empathy
- Patience
- Sensitivity
- Confidence
- Self-respect
- Honesty
- Spiritual grounding
- Self-understanding
- Mindfulness
Mediumship is at its best when the mind is clear. Furthermore, it takes a long time to grow the confidence and experience to become a professional medium.
Spiritually minded
Are all psychic mediums spiritually minded? Well, let’s decipher what spiritually minded actually means.
- Loving
- Respect for others
- Accepting of others
- Forgiveness
- Empathy
- Inner peace
- Open-mindedness
- Compassion
I’m sure this is what you would expect from everyone who claims to be spiritual or a psychic medium. However, I’m sure this is not always the case with everybody. I myself do not like the term spiritual as I think it is a very hard and overpowering word almost like a Religious dominance.
Really for me being spiritually minded is just being yourself. Moreover, trying to understand more about yourself such as your soul and life purpose. After that being able to move on and help other people as best as you can.
At the end of the day, good is a point of view. Nobody shares and agrees with each other on everything and this is the point of life. We all have our likes and our dislikes and everything in life. It is really up to us how we handle them and decide for ourselves what is right and what is wrong.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hBvNo-_1FN8&pp=ygUNc3RldmUgcmF6emVsbA%3D%3D
The upbringing and childhoods of psychic mediums
Many mediums and also psychics, spiritual healers and so on have had difficult and sometimes abusive childhoods. Because of this many of us suffer from trauma and deep insecurities.
That being said this does bring out usually the best in them. Definitely with empathy and understanding of how somebody else would feel in a situation that they’ve been through. Spiritually gifted people tend to be very damaged from trauma. Often however they do not realise how gifted they are and this is something that I see a lot of.
There are certain types of people that make incredibly good psychic mediums. You often find this with people who have autism and in many cases dyslexia. I think this is because when you have these conditions, you have to think outside of the box. Mediumship is all about interpreting feelings, sounds, emotions, visions and much more.
Overly sensitive people not only that have autism or dyslexia also make very good mediums. Sensitivity is how the spirit world communicates using a whole range of different senses.
Personal development as a psychic medium
This is one thing I think that gets overlooked. For many aspiring mediums, they do not always look at the self-development that they need to go through. Life is full of personal and self-development in fact it never stops throughout our earthly life.
What’s more? It is important also to take into account what you as a psychic medium are also offering the spirit world. Importantly, to remember, we look into the spirit world for guidance and also our spirit guides.
I can never forget a few years ago what my spirit guide told me. During a meditation when I was hoping for some deep insight and understanding into my Mediumship development. Very clearly in my mind, I could hear “This is just as much my journey as it is yours.”
Admittedly I never saw it like that before he told me that. The truth is that even in the spirit world we are continuously learning. Even as spirit guides you are still on a spiritual path and spiritual growth. Life is for us to learn and to make our own choices and decisions. We rely on the spirit world and our spirit guides to help us, but it is up to us to make a lot of the decision decisions for ourselves.
Living a normal life
Especially important to know is that a psychic medium can live a perfectly normal life. What is important to know is that the spirit world does not take over your entire life. Boundaries are very important in Mediumship so when you are not working, you shut yourself down like a computer.
Learning how to set your boundaries in this work is very important. You cannot be open all the time to work with the spirit world or with people in general. You need to have your own space and your own time to avoid being completely burnt out. Energy work such as spiritual energy and people’s energy in general can be extremely draining.

As a professional psychic medium myself, I make sure that I do not burn myself out. Along with that, I always make sure that I have my other hobbies and interests. Again, I have to make sure that I do not get too involved with the client’s grief and personal struggles. This can be hard to do as I am an empath but for myself, in any other psychic or medium this is something that you have to do.
Thank you very much for reading my blog and I hope this explains everything you were expecting.
