In this blog post, we’ll exploring sitting in the power in more detail, how how it differs from other types of meditation, its benefits, how to sit in the power and also provide practical tips for incorporating this practice into your daily routine
Meditation vs Sitting in the power
Many psychic mediums often ask, “What is the difference between sitting in the power and meditation?”
Well, sitting in the power focuses on exploring our inner energy field, connecting to our divine nature, and building our power. It is a spiritual practice of self-exploration and expansion. It’s an essential part of any psychic or medium’s spiritual development and has a huge impact on their work.
But meditation focuses on reducing stress and quietening to relax and quiet the mind, using techniques such as breathwork, visualization, and mindfulness. Its ultimate goal is to reduce stress and improve our overall well-being.
Meditation usually focuses on training ourselves to relax and quieten the mind. We may use techniques such as breath work, visualization, and mindfulness with the ultimate goal reduce stress and improve our overall well-being.
But the two practices overlap. During a sitting in power meditation, we may begin with a light meditation to get into a relaxed state. We may choose to use breathwork or visualizations to disconnect from the external world and shift our attention inwards.
Is meditation or sitting in the power better?
The use of both meditation and sitting in the power can be highly beneficial for our spiritual growth and overall well-being.
Meditation is a great starting point for beginners, as it can help to reduce stress, quiet the mind, and balance emotions. But, if you struggle to stay focused, pick a meditation with relaxing music. Many psychic mediums enjoy the sound of water, but you should use whatever works best for you. Once you feel grounded and comfortable meditating, you can take your practice to the next level and begin sitting in the power.
What does it feel like when you are sitting in the power.
The experience of sitting in power or sitting with spirit is unique, powerful, and transformational. We usually sense our bodies relax and our outer world starts to move into the background. As we access heightened states of awareness and connect to the spirit realm, we go beyond our thoughts, emotions, and feelings and connect to our true essence.
It is a truly magical experience. Our intuitive senses are heightened and we feel boundless and in connection with the divine energy within.
This divine state is the bridge between our world and the realm of spirit.
Why psychics and mediums Must sit with spirit?
Sitting in the power meditations helps us surrender to the spirit realm and release the need for control. To reach an altered state of awareness we need to allow consciousness to creep through and create space between our thoughts, emotions, and our attachment to the body.
When we sit with spirit, the ego or our self-identify disappears and we become one with our boundless nature. We become fragments of universal consciousness exploring our formless state of being, free from labels and identity-less existence. This is the ultimate goal and purest form of communication with the spirit realm.

How to Sit in the Power?
Sitting in the power is a simple practice that begins by relaxing the body and quietening the mind. So, find a quiet and comfortable place to sit and focus your attention inwards. You can use breathwork or visualizations to fully relax, and then allow your awareness to expand beyond the physical boundary of your body. Although the practice is simple, it can take time to consistently reach heightened states of awareness. To master it, start with 10-15 minute meditations at least three times a week, and gradually add 5 more minutes every couple of weeks. Make the process enjoyable and commit to at least 2 meditations a week.

What is the best time to sit with spirit?
Psychic mediums usually ask when is the best time to sit in the power. In my opinion, this depends if you are an early bird or a night owl. I believe in working with our natural rhythms making the most of our spiritual connection.
I usually sit in the power during the evening, but I prefer to meditate during the day. As a night owl, I find it easier to connect with the spirit between midnight and 5 am. At this time, I can instantly align with consciousness and connect with the spirit realm.
If you are an early bird, you can try to sit with spirit first thing in the morning, or ideally before 5 am. If mornings are too difficult, then listen to your intuition and find another time that suits your needs.
Whether you are an early bird or a night owl, trust your intuition and pick the time and day that best works for you. Then make it one of your non-negotiables and commit to at least three 15-minute sessions a week.
overcome challenges while sitting in the power
If you are having difficulty sitting in the power, you may need to start or go back to regular guided meditations. It can take the pressure off and help you find peace of mind.
Remember to choose a meditation that is relaxing and peaceful. Enjoying the process is key! If you are putting too much pressure or forcing yourself to meditate or sit in the power it can be counterproductive.
Note: Not all days will be the same. Some days our meditations will go deeper and others may remain shallow. Don’t judge the process. You always get exactly what you need out of each meditation.
