Have a Cuppa with Spirit.

Connecting with Spirit is a wonderful privilege; one to honor and respect with authenticity and integrity. It can leave the sitter with an experience to cherish for a lifetime, but many times nerves and old habits can prevent the connection from being as strong as potentially possible. When working with Spirit, you may initially feel the flow but then suddenly experience challenges in deepening your evidence. Perhaps you deliver a piece of information, but then stall with how to unfold it further.

The more you can peel away the layers within your spirit connection, the more you can deepen the experience for the recipient. So how can that be done? The easiest and simplest way is to imagine yourself having a conversation with Spirit.

Imagine sitting across a table and simply having a cuppa with Spirit.

With your coffee or tea in hand, begin the conversation with Spirit by getting to know them. Start with asking about who they were in the physical realm. Let go of feeling you have to describe how tall they were or explain their receding hairline. These are old patterns within evidence. Evidence is the details you could never have known if you weren’t directly communicating with that Spirit. That is the magic within mediumship. Allow yourself to be more personal with them. Immerse yourself in curiosity. Ask them about their hobbies. What did they enjoy? Learn about their family members. Did they have children? How many do they have? How are those children today? Are any of those children in Spirit with them? For those in the physical realm, do they visit them? If so, how are they doing that? Are they sending the sitter a sign or symbol? If so, what is it? Are they playing with electronics? Perhaps they witnessed something recently their loved one did which you can validate with your sitter.

Commit to being genuinely curious about the Spirit. Release the impulse to deliver information in a way that sounds more like you’re reading a resume than getting to know them personally. Pull up a chair, relax and find out who your spirit was while having a physical experience. What did your Spirit love to do in their spare time? Did they enjoy gardening? If so, ask them about their favorite flower. How about traditions? Did they follow any traditions or pass any of them down to younger generations? These are the details that will matter the most. They will allow your sitter to experience those memories once again. It’s in these moments that the peace and closure can occur because the sitter will trust your connection with their loved one.

How many times have you spoken to a barista, asking them about their day? Engaged in a conversation with your friend’s mother to see how she is doing

while you are there for a holiday dinner? We indulge in conversations all of the time, yet forget to do it when connecting to Spirit. Spirit is a person. Spirit is someone’s loved one, without the physical body, but their soul remains. The essence of who they were is a gift laid before you. Expressing the imprint of who they were and what they enjoyed is how you can continue to honor those in Spirit. The evidence is in the details and those details are revealed within the story of Spirit. The conversations you have with them will fill in the blanks you experience when the connection feels it has a lull in it. Being curious is the

key to the connection. It’s the key to unlocking the memories, the validation and the message of Spirit.

You are meant to be a messenger of Spirit. Trust your connection, and take that link further by having that personal conversation with that loved one on the other side. Not only will you leave the table giving your sitter the true essence of their loved one, but you will have honored spirit by giving them a voice to tell their story once again. So next time, grab a cuppa with Spirit and let the story unfold!
