ADVICE

Practice Mediumship Like A Skill

Practice regularly: mediumship develops like any skill through consistent use and finding a personal sweet spot.
Treat it like learning an instrument — time and repetition build competence and confidence.

ADVICE

Refer When Mediumship Isn't The Right Help

Recognize when a sitter needs professional help other than mediumship and refer them appropriately.
Avoid readings under high pressure or urgent needs, and reschedule if the energy isn't right.

INSIGHT

Veridical Detail Counters Living-Agent Psi

Veridical information undermines the 'living agent psi' explanation because sitters often genuinely lacked the knowledge.
First-person experiential certainty and emotional cadence help people recognize authentic spirit messages.
