What I do to I remain unresistant to the psychic shifts brought on by my spiritual growth and development
Spiritual development often brings with it psychic development and sensitivity. You become more sensitive to the energies and messages that are constantly being transmitted around you that you didn’t perceive previously. Increased psychic sensitivity can be disorienting and overwhelming.

When I experience shifts in my own psychic sensitivity there are two practices that I do to help integrate my increased awareness and perception.
When I’m feeling the overwhelm that comes from new levels of psychic capacity. I seek out dark places. I will hide under my altar table. Under the bed. Something that feels like a dark cave where I could lay on the ground.
When I am feeling disoriented, I practice more mindfulness. My experience with mindfulness is that I switch my perspective between the mountain top and the valley. When I am on the mountaintop I am surveying this new reality and staying open to the bigger picture. When I am in the valley I am observing myself as I operate within this new reality. By bringing my full awareness to my daily mundane activities, the valley allows me to recognize that though I am experiencing a heightened awareness of my reality or the spirit realm, much of my world and myself is as I’ve always known it to be.
These practices help me to be unresistant to the spiritual change that I am experiencing while keeping me grounded in my day to day reality.
