The theme of duality in life has been showing up again in January. As I received the keys to the Spirit School space, I\u2019m also experiencing vertigo and strep throat. However, I am choosing to lean into the joyful side of life and to celebrate what this new space means for Spirit School and all those who will go on to make an impact from their experiences there!\xa0\n\xa0\nIn today\u2019s episode, I am sharing a channeled class and philosophy\xa0 from the last round of The Initiation about mediumship as an art. The live classes in my intimate development experiences are in response to the questions and conversations happening in the community. Part of the reason I\u2019ve taught this mediumship foundations program so many times is that it\u2019s different every round!\xa0\n\xa0\nThough there is more scientific research being done and there is a basic structure, mediumship is more of a healing artform. If you think of it like a blank canvas, you get to bring your own experiences and modalities and create something new!\n\xa0\nThe Initiation 8-Week Mediumship Foundations Experience includes self study, live classes, practice readings and Q&A calls. This is a robust course for anyone in their first three years of mediumship development. The cart will be open until we start on Friday, January 27!\n\nSpirit School Links\nSpirit School Collective: https://www.squamishmedium.com/spiritschoolcollective\nThe Initiation starts January 27: https://www.squamishmedium.com/programs-the-initiation\nJoin us on the new FREE Spirit School platform: https://myspiritschoolcollective.com/plans/\nTrauma Informed Lightworker Waitlist: https://view.flodesk.com/pages/6398f03888aca7e15696b1fa\nVisit Spirit School at https://www.squamishmedium.com/ for all courses and upcoming programs\nView full transcripts of podcast episodes at https://www.squamishmedium.com/blog\nIn this episode:\nScience is getting closer to understanding mediumship, it is still a form of art\nWe can have more fun on this path if we see it as a blank canvas\nI want to remove the stigma around using other modalities and spiritual tools in mediumship\nMany people connect with spirit during Reiki or oracle card sessions when they are in flow\nI began developing mediumship before I connected with angels and oracle cards\nYou can pull an oracle card for inspiration if you\u2019re stuck in a reading\nScribbling what comes up initially can help mediums narrow the focus to start\nYou can refer to the paper if you get stuck, just like oracle cards\nAlmost everything I write unfolds, even if I don\u2019t look\nDon\u2019t let people tell you that using tools is a crutch\nMediumship is an art form and mentors give you a brush and paint\nYou are the blank canvas and get to decide how and what to paint\nSome of you may fall into comparing colours, tools, or skills\nIt took me awhile on my journey to realize that you could add layers\nEveryone\u2019s painting turns out different with the same prompts\nYour mediumship and connection to spirit are just as unique\nYou miss the creative process if you analyze instead of allowing it to unfold\nIf something you learn doesn\u2019t work, you\u2019ll find your own technique that you can teach\nThe creative process is the path that reveals what you will teach\nYou can change the brush or colours anytime\nWhen you get a no, it provides clarity for you to tweak the \u201chappy mistakes\u201d\nWe aren\u2019t for everyone, so it needs to be your own taste for you to enjoy it\xa0\nAlthough I\u2019m not artistic, creating a business is the most creative thing I\u2019ve done\nDocument your experiences to look back at how far you\u2019ve come\nYou can feel the energetic difference between the words discern and analyze\nWe talk about the importance of language in advancing mediumship modules\nI don\u2019t Google spiritual philosophies until I\u2019ve contemplated them myself\nSpiritual maturity is the ability to discern, not analyze\nAnalyzing is the ability to make conclusions based on natural senses\nDiscernment goes past perception and makes nuanced judgements\nDiscernment is more passive like observ
