How I turned to spirituality

The first time I visited a medium stands out in my memory because, at 19, the medium told me that I would have a long life. I couldn't help but ponder whether the person in front of me had any insight into the timing of my death.

Having grown up with parents who occasionally visited mediums and frequently talked about dreams and their potential interpretations, consulting a medium was familiar.
Out of curiosity, I visited a medium several times in the following years. However, it was only when I had a reading from a woman at the age of 25 that my spiritual journey started unfolding. She recommended that I consider enrolling in a tarot card reading course.
Curious about spiritual topics, I trusted her recommendation and enrolled in the next available course. Although the course was good, I felt uneasy with the instructor, prompting me to explore another location where tarot reading was part of the curriculum.
This marked the start of a journey that continues without a clear conclusion in sight. During my time at the Healing School, I was introduced to meditation for the first time. Throughout this winter, in addition to finishing courses on tarot reading, dream interpretation, healing, and mediumship, I also began attending a weekly meditation group.
I have no memories of being clairvoyant as a child and wasn't sure I had healing and mediumship abilities. However, while taking these courses, I realized I had a certain sensitivity that I wanted to understand and develop further.
The primary factor that made me believe I had a purpose in this field was my experience while meditating with others. As soon as I sat down with them, I could feel energy coursing through my arms and hands.
The energy was so powerful that it caused pain in my arms, yet the teacher clarified that it was physically preparing me to become a healer. This was one of the new sensations and experiences I encountered, unaware of their possibility. A separate blog post will discuss my experiences in this aspect in further detail.
My studies helped me better understand myself and my skills in this area. This knowledge prompted me to enrol in various healing and mediumship courses to explore these phenomena further.
Nevertheless, I acknowledge that much remains beyond my comprehension and awaits further exploration. Yet, my experiences and observations have sufficiently persuaded me that a realm exists beyond the visible world perceived by human eyes.
