Victoria Cochrane - Connecting to Your Guides

Interview and Article by MICHELLE R PRICE

I’m sure many of our readers would have wondered about their Guides at some point in their life, but how do we find out who they are and what they want us to know? This is a question that Victoria Cochrane will attempt to answer for us here.

Victoria is an Advanced Theta Healing Practitioner and a Reiki Master. She also performs Psychic Readings and has been since she discovered her gift in her 40s.

She has a keen interest in channelling and focuses on that in her contribution to the Discovery Spiritual Journal. ‘Channelling Your Guides Through Meditation and Automatic Writing’ talks us through the process of connecting with our Guides just by picking up a pen. Sound simple? Well, as Victoria explains, “When you write and you don’t think about it, that is automatic writing, and it is receiving messages.

“When our mind gets in the way, that’s when we kind of block ourselves, so the whole thing is to just put your mind out of the way and allow the messages to come through,” she said.

Victoria added, “A lot of people that I’ve worked with have the gift of channelling and automatic writing just allows them to do that without thinking about it.” Her recommendation is to “Just write it, don’t think about it and then read it back later,” adding it does take some practice.

The author and mum of three adult boys said she does have conversations with her Guides and she knows the difference between something they are saying to her and something that is just one of her own thoughts. But she stresses that the automatic writing technique is great for beginners.

Victoria explained that the skill we use when we are channelling is Clairaudience. That may not sound like someone is speaking in your ear but is more about thoughts that you become conscious of, or music that you recognise as having some meaning.

In Victoria’s Journal contribution, she does provide tools and invocations and ways we can ensure we know just who we are communicating with. Her intention is for readers to have a nice experience when connecting with their Guides. Victoria explained that it is important to be in the energy of unconditional love, so you are protected.

Victoria’s journal entry will talk readers through the process of connecting with Archangels, Guides and Higher Self. She recommends using your breath to connect and go deeper and to calm your mind. Basically, you will be entering an alpha state.

She also said there are no excuses not to meditate, saying it can take just minutes. For more on how to connect, you will need to check out Victoria’s entry in the Discovery Spiritual Journal.
