And to say I was astounded by what I encountered is an understatement.
After sitting through over 50 medium readings (using fake information so they couldn’t Google me!
I have now spent the past five years researching theevidence of an afterlifeand the scientists who officially study it.
(Yes, they exist!)
- The experience even inspired me to write a book about this topic,WTF Just Happened?!
A Sciencey-skeptic Explores Grief, Healing, and Evidence of An Afterlife,which comes out next month.
Before I committed to learning more about psychic mediums, I believed so many commonly accepted misconceptions about them.
In my experience, it’s true that some are, but many are not.
Myth #2: If they aren’t frauds, they are delusional.
I will admit that many mediums I’ve come across conflate logical reasoning with psychic or mediumship abilities.
These were all logical deductions that I figured would most likely be right, and they were.
I was not intentionally “cheating,” but these thoughts popped into my head logically.
I was not reading her mind, nor could I sense her grandmother communicating with me.
There is a small selection of mediums that get to this level of specific information regularly.
Myth #3: Science does not take psychic mediums seriously.
However, there are a handful of serious researchers who study psychic mediums using science-based protocols.
Myth #4: Psychics and mediums are the same thing.
When you want information into your own life choices, you want to get a psychic reading.
During a mediumship reading, the medium connects with a person or being who has passed away.
Myth #5: Psychics always know what you’re thinking.
However, there are boundaries and limits.
Mediums want to socialize and have friends like the rest of us.
Myth #6: Mediums never grieve.
Mediums are humans, and they grieve like the rest of us.
We would all love medium abilities to be that perfect!
The takeaway.
If you too are dealing with grief or are anxious about mortality in general (aren’t we all?
), don’t dismiss the possibility of psychic mediums and that there is more than this life.
