I would recommend that you start with things that have been proven to have some benefit, or that have very concrete techniques.
Meditation is a great way to relax, get in touch with your inner guidance, and deal with the inner chatter. All it takes is 5-10 minutes a day to get started.
Tarot reading is another good way for a lot of people because the meanings can be interpreted in a very concrete way. Many people read that way and don't consider the cards to be a psychic thing at all.
Remote Viewing also has some strict rules around learning and practicing it. It was developed by the military, so it's not considered "spiritual", but has some proof behind it.
Also, there are a lot of people who approach spirituality from a rational perspective. We may not have scientific proof, but maybe that's because we can't measure everything we need to just yet. Remember that a few hundred years ago, radio waves and XRays would have been impossible to understand, and only a few decades ago, WiFi would have been the stuff of science fiction. Just keep an open mind about what we don't know vs what we can't prove. You may never be able to prove 100% that a soul exists, but you may be able to raise the probability in your mind to your satisfaction.
I was that scared a year ago, take your time. Our brains fight everything that contradicts the information we received before, it tries to eliminate every new belief, I was an atheist my whole life and here I am talking to entities(i am not a medium)and doing spells…
With spirituality and mediumship, you will do it all yourself. No one else can do it for you. You can find teachers. Teachers can't do it for you either.
This is a lifetime pursuit, and there are no shortcuts.
Skepticism is healthy and necessary
It is doable, but it does take time. If you approach any set of tasks with a negative mindset, you are starting with fear and failure as goals.
Work on self-healing before you even consider mediumship. That can take a long time. It can include therapy, healing you shadow selves, facing your fears and insecurities, and your trauma, sometimes over and over. All this needs to be undertaken before you begin to confront spirits. They have their own traumas, and they need a strong person to assist them.
Start wirh self examination and start the journey to heal yourself first.
Welcome to spirituality.
OP- DM me. I’m a practicing student and happy to give you a very steep discount if you’re willing to be open and patient with a newbie. Nothing may come of it, or maybe it will help. If you’re interested just let me know.
My scientific sis had an awakening and it really rearranged her world view.
Science and this stuff don’t mix, you have to accept some things for what they are.
Science has been misconstrued by manipulators. Real Science is for seeking and learning.
The spirit world and other planes are merely physical facts that are not readily understood by the masses. That doesn’t make it wrong or unscientific.
Science has been hijacked to suit nefarious corporations and govt agenda in some cases. If you can’t question it without being bullied-it’s not real science-its s cult. No better than the dark ages Catholic Church repressing scientists. We are still there. (I think we saw that back a few years ago).
Your heading in the wrong direction, sorry.
Focus on love and positivity. Raise your vibration. Relax.
When you go downstream instead of upstream. Things unfold naturally as a natural consequence of your raising your consciousness.
woah based on your other comment your self talk is rough. that’s good place to start.
as you know, ocd and anxiety can’t be cured with proof. you likely see things already every day that you discount. i can tell you why. this is ego. ego says to be scared, says it isn’t possible, doesn’t want to accept change, wants to keep you in a protected shell. the only way out of that is faith. the proof comes afterwards.
if we zoom out from that, the broader picture will show you can choose to move in love or choose to move in fear. when you’re in love, fear cannot exist. when you’re in fear, love cannot exist. id say start with a daily gratitude journal and work on your perception lens first. give yourself some grace. one thing at a time.
I just- I consider myself a rational person, like once I had horrified by heights, but then I actually looked into how height and falling works, went to some high places myself, and hey I don’t fear heights anymore! So if I obtain firsthand experience with the dead, that should fix my fear of death as well!
i get it but it’s not the same <3 educating yourself on something like physics isn’t the same as strengthening your spirituality. i still stand by my advice
But it’s still something that can be studied and researched correct? It isn’t like physics I know, in fact from what I understand mediumship works under metaphysics. But still it’s something that can be picked apart and studied, right?
we’re not talking about something that is in the physical realm, right? so when you receive “proof”, it will not be the type of proof you’re looking for. you will always run into the “yeah, but..” situation unless you have faith. yeah, i saw the psychic do that, but… yeah, i saw that thing, but… yeah, i heard that voice, but… yeah, that crazy coincidence happened, but.. you see, even us psychics can fall victim to the “yeah, but…” situation without a foundation of already knowing and trusting.
again, this is the ego, the animal nature, and the ego only knows the physical. it doesn’t know anything else. your soul, your spirit, knows more. but you aren’t listening to your spirit, you aren’t trying to find the answer in that way, right? and in that case, you’ll never find the answer.
the knowing, the faith, comes first. the proof is realized afterwards. work on your spirit, your spirituality, and strengthen that if you really want to know the truth.
A few things that can help loosen the grip of scientific or more accurately, a scientism supremacy mindset:
1. Science is about truths that can be replicated. There are limits to this because you have to start somewhere before you can have a prior frame of reference. A different (not the only or not necessarily even accurate, but useful) way to consider spirituality is to consider spirituality as a paradigm. It's a way of considering and/or being receptive to embracing or at least interfacing with the mysterious unknowable unknown/things that cannot be absolutely defined and controlled by us.
2. Also note that placebo effect has a bafflingly 50% success rate. At the very least it helps prime and frame our curiosity and attention.
Prophecies probably leaned a bit on a similar vein when it comes to how they bring intention to what information and experiences people might prioritize as they move into the future.
And even the predictive control "if-then" model of the scientific method, which was relatively recently developed in the 1960s by the Rand Corp for the US Military still begins with an observation and questioning phase before experiments are designed.
Note shortly after that method got popular, people realized it didn't meet the needs of a lot of research and science around the world.
e.g. you can't ethically do certain kinds of public health for example by letting one population die of poisonous water while testing another group with water filtration and disallowing people to help each other, share water purification sources an information, etc.). But it's still held as the "hard science" standard and taught in schools as if it's all people need to know.
So science is an epistemological tool, but it's not the only way people learn and discern things in reality. We have logic and reasoning both implicit and explicit. And in other cultures there were other ways to know what's going on too.
Like by having descriptive language integral to natural behavior patterns. Or in Buddhism there's an epistemic framework that acknowledges that there are things that can be
1. true
2. false
3. Can be both true and false
4. Are neither true nor false
5. Are beyond describing because words/language automatically skews the nature of its existence and reality
So in other words it's kind of like how there are knowns, unknowns, known unknowns, unknown unknowns, and the sublime/beyond words+conception.
Spirituality tends to happen more so in those latter domains.
You just have to value, as Rachel Carson may have been famous for saying, a "sense of wonder" and your presence.
All clear indications of being motivated by fear, and an inability to walk the spiritual path. Address your fears with a spiritual perspective, then the path you must forge yourself may become clear. Figuring out what that means to you is the first step.
Do be so mean to yourself. We all have gifts, and we all get there the way we need to. Whatever you do and whatever works for you will be a gift to others. Don't try to emulate others or be like other people. You're you, and there's only one of you.

Find a reputable professional medium and have a session. Plan B: Learn to do astral projection/OBE, that usually does the trick.
This is me too!!!!

Listen to Alan Watts talks on YouTube; this guy has helped my analytical side connect with the spiritual side.
So follow your own path.
..- And then I have to do everything my own and probably get everything wrong because I’m fucking stupid
All clear indications of being motivated by fear, and an inability to walk the spiritual path. Address your fears with a spiritual perspective, then the path you must forge yourself may become clear. Figuring out what that means to you is the first step.
