    Binaural Beats MP3 for Improving Extra-Sensory Perception – Review

    Are you looking for an inexpensive product that will help you with your intuitive development? (& one that doesn’t involve much of a time commitment!?)

    In this article I review one that I have found.

    This product I am reviewing here is an audio product that I’ve used almost every day since I discovered it several years ago – a Binaural Beats mp3 for Extra-Sensory Perception.

    Unlike most products and courses, this is a product that you only need listen to, in order to feel the effects on your intuitive abilities, as “too good to be true” as that may sound!

    In this article, I’m, going to talk about how exactly binaural beats have amplified and improved my intuitive abilities in the last few months, so that you can decide whether they could help you too in your intuitive development.

    What are Binaural Beats?

    Binaural Beats are rhythmic humming sounds that are created by playing two simple tones in the right and left ears. They are sold online as mp3’s.  They don’t just include humming.  In order to make them nicer to listen to, they also have water and nature sounds on them, plus some music.  And you have to listen to them using headphones.  These beats have been proven to alter brainwave frequencies, resulting in an altered state of consciousness.

    This state of consciousness is called the alpha state.

    What is the Alpha State?

    For certain states of consciousness and activities, certain brain waves occur.

    Alpha is the brain wave that occurs during light sleep, dreams, meditation, daydreams and creative visualization.

    It’s the state you need to be in, in order to receive intuitive information.

    Being in the Alpha State is like being in a light trance – you notice what is going on around you, but your usually busy mind is extremely quiet. You become a clear conduit for intuitive information.  If you’ve had a reading with an intuitive on the phone or in person, they will have been in this alpha state while talking to you.

    The thing is, we all have intuitive guidance available to us, when we can quiet our minds and put ourselves in the alpha state.  But most people don’t know they need to be in the alpha state to receive it.  And most people certainly don’t know how to put themselves in the alpha state at will. And so we may only get glimpses of intuition here and there, and our intuitive skills seem to work sometimes, but not at other times.

    That is because we spend most of our waking time in a state that is not conducive to receiving intuitive information – the beta state.

    Beta is the brain wave that occurs when you are fully conscious and awake.  You are concentrating and your brain is engaged and busy, busy, busy in this state.  You cannot receive intuitive information in this state, although you may have already tried and failed.

    So, quite simply, unless you can quieten your mind and put yourself into the Alpha state, you don’t receive intuitive information when you want it.

    I used to think that intuitives were born gifted, or special. But now I know that they are just people who have learned to put themselves into this altered state of consciousness at will and have done some experimenting with processes while in the alpha state.  I know that, because I am one of them.

    How They Work

    This Extra-Sensory Perception mp3 guarantees to put you in a peaceful meditative state, sometimes within just 5 minutes of listening to it. And you can even let your mind wander while listening – you don’t need to try to quieten your mind, because the mp3 does it for you automatically.   And if you listen to it regularly, it trains your brainwaves to be able to enter that state quickly and easily in future.  It effectively fast-tracks your intuitive development.

    Another way to fast-track your intuitive development is to learn to meditate.  If you can do it regularly and consistently, it will put you in the alpha state too.  That is why meditation is frequently recommended for intuitive development – and rightly so.

    But the thing is, I never really got that far with meditation.  Meditation is one of my least favourite things to do. And I know a lot of people who feel the same about it.

    I had real trouble quietening my thoughts for ten seconds, let alone a whole minute.  My mind would bang on about anything – how I was hungry, thirsty, too hot, too cold, wondered about what I would have for dinner, remarked on how loud the road works are. I am someone who needs to be moving.  I have a lot of nervous energy.  Meditation was like torture to me.  I did the absolute minimum meditation before readings – just enough to enter the alpha state.

    I didn’t know how much my undisciplined mind was holding me back in my intuitive development until I started using this mp3, which I discovered by accident.

    How I Stumbled Upon Binaural Beats

    I first discovered them, via my friend and hypnotherapist Angela who sent me a hypnosis mp3 to help me sleep.  Firstly, she sent a hypnosis mp3 with her simply talking.  I listened to it a few times but it was just like my meditations – it was hard to get my mind to shut up and pay attention.  So, I wasn’t sure I was being hypnotized.

    Then a few days later, she sent me an updated version of the hypnosis – an mp3 to help me to sleep with some binaural beats on it.  When I listened to this mp3, I noticed the difference straight away.  It was like it was speaking to a whole different part of me – that was present, and listening.  I was hypnotized. While listening, I realized that I was in the same state that I’m in when I do readings, and it had happened within a matter of minutes. And I didn’t have to meditate to get there – hurray!

    So, I was not surprised when I found out that binaural beats don’t just help you to sleep, they are also used to awaken and improve extra-sensory perception and intuition.  I ordered one of these specialized ESP MP3’s from the Unexplainable Store to check it out.

    I used it for two weeks, once a day for about thirty minutes and here are some of my experiences while listening to it:

    • My mind’s eye (the centre of clairvoyance) began to run riot while I was listening
    • I spontaneously had vivid meetings with my Spirit Guides – without even trying.
    • My chakras opened up spontaneously and I felt tingling in various places on my body.
    • Any stressful thoughts and anxiety drifted away and my thoughts, in general, were silenced.
    • While listening, I spontaneously received a variety of intuitive insights and epiphanies about my life.

    Those are just a few of the general experiences I have had. This sort of thing happens every time I listen.  It’s not hit and miss. My students report similar results and I have read that these experiences are par for the course while listening to the mp3. I like inducing experiences like these on a daily basis – It makes me feel more connected to my guides and spirit.

    I also believe that my readings have improved as a result of listening to binaural beats.  Whereas before it would take me a long time to calm my mind before a reading, now I can do it quickly and it’s not difficult for me anymore.

    Why listening to Binaural Beats is more fun than meditation

    The thing I love about listening to this mp3 is that it is extremely pleasurable – the first time I used them, I put an update on my Facebook account saying that it was ‘better than sex!’

    That might sound strange but it is very enjoyable.  It’s so far from the chore that meditation was.

    Other Uses for Binaural Beats

    I mentioned binaural beats on my blog a few weeks ago, and since then, several readers and clients have told me that they also use binaural beats for anxiety and stress relief (I can vouch for that as I always emerge from a binaural beats session feeling lighter and in a better mood).  I also know people who use them to help them have lucid dreams.

    Are Binaural Beats Right for You?

    So, in summary, the mp3 may be right for you if:

    • You are interested in awakening your intuitive abilities.
    • You want to strengthen your already existing intuitive abilities.
    • You want to learn to meditate but find it hard to relax or quieten your mind.
    • You do intuitive readings but find that your mind can sometimes get in the way of connecting with people’s Spirit Guides.

    Please note that this ESP binaural beats MP3 is not right for you if you are looking for a quick magic bullet for awakening intuitive abilities, permanently. Nothing will do that for you.  You will have to do other work too.

    The ESP binaural beats mp3 will definitely train you to be in the alpha state, which is an essential component of receiving intuitive information.  But remember that that is one essential part of awakening intuitive ability – it’s not the whole process.

    Effective intuitive development = the alpha state + finding the right process for you, and practising it too.

    The mp3 that I have used and recommend was from the Unexplainable Store. It cost $14 (US dollars) and they have a 60-day money-back guarantee in case you don’t like it. These recordings are also better sound quality than many of the other binaural beats that I know of which are sold online.

    You can order the MP3 that I tried here – Extra-Sensory Perception Binaural Beats MP3.

    If you buy the mp3, I hope you enjoy listening to them like I have.

    PS. The name of the mp3 I bought (& recommend) from the Unexplainable Store is the “ESP/ Psychic Binaural Beat” mp3.

  • What is Intuition?

    What is Intuition?

    In this post I explore what intuition is, including the differences between intuitive abilities and psychic abilities, because many people do not know what intuition is exactly, and how it differs from psychic abilities.

    What is Intuition?

    You know those moments when you get a feeling in your gut that someone is not trustworthy? Or a little insight about someone else’s life – for example, you know that your friend is going to get the job that she’s about to go to an interview for? That would be your intuition.

    One intuitive insight that sticks out in my memory for some reason was a scenario at work about 18 months ago – it was when I was teaching English and French in a language school in Spain.

    On Thursdays I only taught English, but that day as I was going out the door I knew I had to take my French grammar book with me. I wasn’t going to teach French that day and I rarely used my French grammar book anyway, even on the days I taught French, so it appeared to be pointless. But I heeded my intuitive voice and took it anyway.

    Then in the afternoon one of my French students came in unexpectedly and wanted a photocopy from my French grammar book. Ta-da, I could produce one because I had it with me, because I knew I’d need it that day. Although I didn’t know what for.

    I hesitated to include that story in this article because it’s kind of mundane. I didn’t find my life purpose through this intuitive insight or get guided towards buried treasure. It was a fairly small event and wasn’t too impactful, but it made my day and my student’s go more smoothly and that’s about it. Plus the intuitive insight made me feel provided for, and looked after. It was nice to have!

    So, intuition can be little insights which help you with the little things – such as making your day go more smoothly, saving you time, energy or money here and there. But it doesn’t have to be small – larger insights can also help you with the big things of life, such as prevent you from investing a great deal in something (such as a major project) which will come to a dead end. Intuitive insight usually comes to you in the moment, as you need it, just like the example above of my French grammar book.

    The Difference between Intuitive Gifts and Psychic Gifts

    A key component of intuition is that it comes to you and through you, usually spontaneously. In order for that to happen, you must be open and you must notice intuition. On the other hand, when we talk about developing psychic ability, we’re talking more about you going ‘out there’ energetically to receive information from your Higher self or Spirit Guides.

    For intuition, we often talk about feelings, impressions and a sense of knowing and all of these come through the intuitive ‘vehicles’ of clairsentience and claircognizance. (Claircognizance is an insight that just pops up spontaneously in your brain, perhaps unrelated to anything you were thinking about. Clairsentience can be a gut feeling, or a strong, meaningful emotion which speaks to you.)

    So, as a general rule, an intuitive tends to use mostly clairsentience and claircognizance, whereas if someone calls herself a psychic, it’s more likely that she’ll use three or four intuitive vehicles – clairvoyance, clairaudience, clairsentience and claircognizance. I have also noticed that those psychics who mostly use clairvoyance and clairaudience usually refer to themselves as psychics, not as intuitives.

    I believe that for most people, intuitive ability is easier to develop than psychic ability, because it comes primarily through claircognizance and clairsentience and most people are naturally claircognizant and clairsentient. On the other hand, clairvoyance and clairaudience seem to be additional ‘specialties’ that you can have as an intuitive, as fewer people are naturally clairaudient and very few people are naturally clairvoyant.

  • The Top Three Myths About Psychic Ability

    The Top Three Myths About Psychic Ability

    Myth # 1: Only ‘Gifted’ People Can Develop Psychic Awareness

    Clients often ask me ‘do you really think I could develop my psychic abilities?’

    My answer is always yes and the reason for that is, we all have the potential to be gifted psychics. Your intuition is your birth right, but for many of us our psychic senses diminish in childhood as they are not nurtured in the same way that our five physical senses are. Those who are psychic have either:

    I retained a little bit of psychic ability from childhood but I also fall somewhat into the second category of people (those who have worked to consciously develop their psychic ability) – this is partly because I shut off my natural psychic awareness around the age of six or seven. I remember seeing spirits around that age. My mother told me that my experiences were just imaginings and since I was not the kind of child who liked to go against the grain, I took this to heart. As a result, I just stopped engaging with the energies around me.

    My psychic re-awakening began with a bump in 2007, when I trained as a professional intuitive.

    One night I was rudely awakened by a spirit who presented as a dark-haired man, in his thirties. And the following happened in a flash:

    The spirit of this man showed me an image (like a movie image) of him in a caravan with a woman who appeared to be his wife. The man got out of the caravan. My boss at that time got into the caravan with the woman and replaced the man. The man gave me this message:

    “I was not able to take my wife on holiday, but I am so glad your boss did”.

    I was shocked and excited that I had had an encounter with a spirit but I did not know who the spirit was or what his message meant. I knew I had to relay it to my boss.

    So, the next day, I put my apprehensions to one side and told my boss about what had happened in the night. He was amazed and proceeded to explain that the spirit was undoubtedly his wife’s first husband, who had died several years earlier.

    My boss’s wife and her first husband (the deceased spirit) had always planned to spend time travelling around the US in a camper van but their dream was never fulfilled as he became ill and later passed away. When she met her second husband – my boss – they made the camper van tour that she had been unable to make with her first husband. I couldn’t believe what had just happened to me! I didn’t consider myself psychic or gifted and all I had done was set an intention and do a little psychic development. This story shows that we can all reawaken our psychic awareness, sometimes with quite stunning results.

    Myth # 2: Psychic Development is Scary Because You Have To Communicate With Spirits

    I remember being really terrified at the thought of opening up my psychic awareness again. I didn’t want to talk to spirits or see them – I was afraid of being startled.

    Talking to disembodied spirits and seeing them is a big aspect of psychic awareness. But I later learned that there are other ways to tune into Spirit. Psychic awareness can also be gut feeling (clairsentience), an inner knowing (claircognizance) or listening to your inner voice (clairaudience).

    If you’re a beginner in psychic development, you can begin by tuning into your own Higher Self. You don’t have to talk to disembodied spirits to do that.

    Your Higher Self is already communicating with you constantly – whether you are perceiving it is another matter. If you’re stuck in a job you hate with no escape in sight, your Higher Self may whisper to you ‘you know this job isn’t for you…why don’t you pursue your long-term dream of becoming a writer?’

    This sense of knowing that you’re not fulfilling your purpose by working in a job you hate is just as much part of your extra-sensory perception as clairvoyance is.

    You can begin developing psychic awareness just by allowing your Higher Self to guide you. Take note of what feels ‘right’ to you, on a deep level and take action accordingly. It is one thing receiving intuitive guidance, but acting on that intuitive guidance is something else entirely and can take a great deal of courage at times.

    Let’s have a look at the third myth:

    Myth # 3: All psychics are clairvoyant by definition

    Before I trained in spiritual healing, I thought that all psychics had to be clairvoyant. This was mostly because many professional psychics are natural clairvoyants. I’m not among them. My clairvoyance has developed over time, but my strongest intuitive gifts are still clairsentience (gut feeling, empathy, the ability to ‘feel’ what aligns with my spirit, among other things) and claircognizance (the ability to ‘download’ information from Spirit).

    But I didn’t realize I had these gifts until I started my training. And I’m not alone in being primarily clairsentient and claircognizant. Several months ago, in my readings, I undertook to find out from clients’ Akashic soul records which psychic gifts they use to receive information from their Higher Self. I found that most clients do not primarily utilize the gift that we normally associate with being psychic – clairvoyance. Over the last several months around 35% of my clients have been primarily claircognizant (this means that their strongest natural psychic ability is claircognizance), 30% clairsentient, 30% clairaudient and only 5% of the people I read for were clairvoyant.

    Many people haven’t heard of clairsentience and claircognizance (and few have heard of clairaudience), which is interesting because according to what I’ve seen over the past several months, these psychic gifts are so much more common than clairvoyance.

    Does this mean that the people who aren’t naturally clairvoyant can’t be gifted psychics?

    No, what it means is that most people have a different psychic skill set from the one we’re used to hearing about most – clairvoyance. But clairvoyance is not the only skill to develop. Clairsentience, claircognizance and clairaudience are equally valid intuitive ‘vehicles’ too.

    So now when clients ask me “do you really think I could be psychic?” my answer is always yes, if you can do the following: identify your strongest psychic gift , honour and acknowledge the guidance you receive through that intuitive ‘vehicle’ and then make time to consciously develop it .

    The rest will follow. Once you honour and develop your primary gift, you will find that other skills that once weren’t so natural to you will develop as well.
