By Jay Levin Here is a premise to ponder: That you were born psychic and intuitive – meaning you had extra-sensory radar that could move beyond time and space and report back with information you had not heard nor seen, tasted, smelled or touched. Every now and then you get glimmers of that psychic ability which you likely define as “intuition.” There is something you just “know” or feel. Many if not most times we dismiss this and can be heard later saying , “Oh, if I had only followed my intuition about this situation (or person).” Based on our premise, that you were born psychic – meaning with access to knowledge and information that did not come through your five senses – then those moments of intuition or psychic knowingness are not remarkable in their own right.  They only stand out against a general daily life in which you normally are not in touch with this side of yourself and instead you are running on – and thinking with – other information and systems. In fact, we know from a pretty voluminous amount of research into psychic phenomenon by researchers associated with many leading universities and institutions, that psychic phenomena is NOT so unusual. Some people have an extraordinary amount of it. Others have inklings.  Continuing with our premise, if you were born psychic what are the implications of this? That you must have some sort of yet unexplained receptors that allows you to read or detect subtle information fields. That those subtle information fields exist somewhere. That this must be an innate ability varying with different people.  That this ability must be somewhat quashed or encouraged by the experiences in childhood, including the way you are nurtured and programmed by family, friends and community, because so many of us don’t retain much of it. That this ability is not something you created. That if it is innate and lying dormant in you, there may be ways to reclaim that ability by clearing away the programmed, reactive and emotional blocks to accessing it. That the blocks to it can be cleared given that some people become more intuitive and psychic as they age or train themselves differently. Enter now certain types of life coaches. Our job is to teach you to get the emotional and psychological blocks out of the way so that this deeper inner knowing element of yourself can come forward – and it is deeper and wiser than the word “psychic” implies.  Some of us like myself also teach methods of more readily accessing your deeper knowingness, intuition and psychic reality. In fact, I have taken groups of people each of whom has proclaimed to have no psychic abilities whatever, and shown them with one simple exercise how much they actually know about a stranger in the room with them. Why remove the blocks and regain this aptitude? Because the “thinking” and chattering parts of your mind make so many mistakes. Also because by your believing this mind activity is you and by then giving it so much authority over your decisions, you block a remarkably different (and more success-inducing) way of knowing, understanding and moving through life. And if you want to know more about what I mean by that or how you got to be who you are now, check my Free Download lecture and earlier blogs. **** J ay Levin, the founder and former Editor-in Chief of the LA Weekly newspaper, has been a highly successful life and relationship coach and trainer for 12 years.  He recently made the core of his work available as classes in Life Rehab and Mastery and in Relationships.
