The Alpha State Of Mind Techniques For Your Psychic Development

These alpha state of mind techniques will help you immensely if you want better psychic ability or you just want to improve your meditations. You can also get your free entrainment MP3 with a PDF script below.

Many psychics experience their ability from childhood, claiming to be able to see or talk to people others can’t see, or some other kinds of imaginary people or characters. 

Alpha Waves Frequency

Alpha brain waves = 14 to 7 cycles per second (CPS) when electrical activity is measured on an Electroencephalogram (EEG): These waves can be seen when using an ECG. Up to about the age of seven our brainwave frequency while awake is predominantly ALPHA. However, most of us lose these abilities past 7 years of age as that is when our brainwave activity speeds up along with our intellect and thinking skills. Luckily, with a little training and understanding, we can slow down our busy minds. Calming down enough to access these states of mind is essential for developing your psychic ability.

Those that maintain their psychic gifts into adult life manage somehow to easily access their alpha brainwaves and even their theta waves. Most do this unknowingly I must add, but in doing so they are able to keep and further develop their psychic skills.

When we enter the alpha state, we are opening channel to our subconscious, our imagination and creativity and to our sixth sense. The Earth’s heartbeat – is known as the Schumann Resonance after the 1930s physicist Heinrich Schumann discovered the permanent standing wave in the atmosphere between the Earth's surface and the ionosphere predominantly resonates at 7.8Hz.

How does this different state of mind feel?

• Gamma waves are our fastest brain frequencies which measure somewhere between 42 and 21 Hz/CPS when we experience stress and our most hyper-conscious awareness.

• Beta waves run between 21 and 14 CPS/Hz when we are awake, fully conscious, focused, and intellectually alert.

• The Alpha flow state runs between 8 and 12 CPS when we enter light sleep, mediation, and light hypnosis. You will often see rapid eye movement (REM) when someone is dreaming. And this is where intuition pops in.
  
  
• Theta brain frequencies reach between 7 and 4 CPS when we enter deep sleep, deep meditation, lucid dreaming, deep hypnosis. Mediumship and Trance Channeling take place at this level.

• The Delta level is measured between 3 and 1 Hz/CPS when we enter very deep sleep, and our consciousness shuts down.

One of the best and most practical ways to develop your psychic ability is to learn to use alpha mind techniques, meditation, and relaxation skills like what are found in a Silva Mind Method Training or the like. Jose Silva the founder of the now world-famous Silva Method said his original seminar was structured to teach Clairvoyance. He initially studied hypnosis in depth to help his daughter with her school studies. In 1949 he began helping his daughter Isabel. He would bring her down to a semi-hypnotic state (the Alpha-Level) and during this relaxed mental state José would read lessons and recite poetry and then test her recall.

First results were excellent because while in the semi-hypnotic level we have direct access to our subconscious. So, the information that Jose’s daughter Isabel had studied was easily recalled from the subconscious to the conscious mind.

Great! … But what also started to happen, as she became at ease with using these techniques, was this - Isabel started to recall the poems that Jose had not yet read to her. She was one step ahead of him!

To quote Jose Silva. “It was hard to believe, but it was happening right in my own living room with my own daughter. Since I had read about Edgar Cayce when I was in the army and stationed near Bowling Green, Kentucky, where Cayce had lived, it made some sense to me. It also made me think again about all the research I had done about people who claimed to have been clairvoyant.”

Jose Silva continued to work with others to prove to himself that he had formulated these types of techniques to create a new training system that might bring out the clairvoyance in people. In the ten years from 1953 Jose Silva would train thirty-nine men, women, and children to function in a sure way as clairvoyants. From his regular Friday night get-togethers which continued to grow, the Jose Silva Method is now taught internationally through a network of Silva Mind franchises. Millions of people have now used Jose Silva's alpha state of mind techniques to help them build a healthier, happier, and more fulfilling life. Although no longer marketed specifically as psychic development training it’s the very same process.

My Alpha Mind Power Meditation Techniques

When practicing my alpha state of mind techniques, using this 7-step meditation, be in a place where you will not be disturbed. (Turn off phones!)

While listening to the Alpha Entrainment MP3 (linked below) sit up straight in a comfortable position. Become aware that you are tense. Say to yourself “Alert Mind, Calm Body”. Smile, relax your face, relax your jaw, and sparkle inwards with the intent of entering into an alpha state of meditation.

* It is important to listen to the MP3 for 21 days while meditating so that your brain will make a good association to the alpha level with this meditation. After that you should only ever need to mentally go through the meditation, and you will naturally enter the alpha level each time.
