So before we sit in the power there are a couple of tips
How to prepare to sit in the power?
The following tips can help you get the most out of the sitting in the power mediations.
- Begin by washing your hands and getting into some comfortable clothes.
- Pick a quiet location where you can sit down or lay down without any interruptions.
- Find a time of day where you can relax for 10 to 20 minutes.
- Set a timer so that you can fully relax and know when time is up.
- Be open to any experience that may come.
So now that we have got those pre-requisites out of the way, let’s get right to it.
1. Find a comfortable position
To get the maximum benefits of the sitting in the power meditation, we need to find a comfortable position so that we can relax into the experience and connect with the spiritual realm.
You can do this meditation sitting or laying down, and choose whichever one feels comfortable for you. When the body is comfortable it is easier to access heightened states of consciousness.
If you are laying down and have pain in your lower back, add a pillow under your knees. And don’t forget to have a blanket nearby just in case you get a little chilly.
2. Close your eyes and let your body relax
After finding a comfortable position, gently close your eyes. Then take a moment to feel the support of your chair, mat, or bed, and let your body adjust to its surroundings. Now just surrender to the experience.
3. Observe the breath
As your body begins to relax, move your attention to your breath. Observe the natural rhythm of your breathing with every inhale and exhale without trying to control or slow it down.
Just connect with the present moment and acknowledge your experience. If your mind starts to wander, gently guide your awareness back to your breath.
4. Take slow deep breaths
To perform this step, inhale deeply through your nose, hold it for four seconds, and then slowly exhale through your mouth. Hold your breath for four seconds before taking another inhale.
Repeat this breathing pattern at least five times or as many times as you need to relax.
5. Feel into the bodies energy field
As you relax, allow your attention to gravitate naturally to any area of the body. Notice any sensations, such as vibrations, tingling, warmth, or the feeling of moving beyond the physical body.
Become aware of your whole body at once and notice the vibrations within. This is the connection to the divine spark that resides within us all.
6. Allow you awareness to expand
As you connect to your inner life force, you’ll feel your energy expand beyond the physical body. Embrace this moment and remain present in the energy of consciousness.
This experience is unique and tailored to the person’s needs. There is no right or wrong way of connecting with the spirit.
Sitting in the power meditation aims to help you reconnect with your divine essence and spiritually grow.
7. Surrender, and feel your divine essence
By regularly sitting in the power, we can learn how to move our awareness into the spiritual realm and surrender to the experience.
But it can take some time to fully connect with the spirit realm. So patience and consistency are needed. Take your time, enjoy the process, and avoid rushing through the steps.
Spend as much time as you need on each step and when you are ready move on to the next one.
If you find yourself struggling to connect, please be patient with yourself. Even experienced psychic mediums sometimes have trouble elevating their conscious awareness.
Don’t give up, as it can transform your mediumship! Start small, and gradually increase the duration of each meditation.

Final Thoughts
Sitting in the power is a powerful meditative practice that can help you connect with your inner world and the realm of spirit. By finding a comfortable position, relaxing your body, and focusing on your breath, you can tune into your body’s energy and expand your awareness beyond the physical confines of the body.
Even just a few minutes a day can make a significant difference. If that doesn’t sound like much, try gradually increasing the duration of your meditation practice.
Make the process enjoyable and integrate it naturally into your weekly routine. Embrace the experience of exploring your inner world and connecting with spirit!
I am eager to learn the process. I believe that I was meant to help others with psychic abilities.
