How To Prepare For, Be Present At And Unwind After A Medium Reading With Linda M Hughes
In this episode, I would like to share what to do beforeand after a medium reading with me, Linda M Hughes, psychic medium and griefcoach.First, let’s talk about what to do “before” the reading.Financial and legal responsibilities of losing a Loved Onetake time to sort out and deal with. Please allow yourself this time.As discussed earlier, the time for a reading can be scheduled earlier, but wait at least 90 days or longer after the death of your loved one to participate within one.Please consider scheduling time with a grief counselor orgrief coach, such as myself.Our reading will not be a substitute for either of these,however it does provide the spiritual healing you may need and want.When you have worked your way through all of those morepractical steps and when we have agreed on a specific date, please do the following:1. Makea list of all of the different things that you do or would do that completely relaxesyou. These could be things like walking,running, napping, meditation or other artistic endeavors like writing, reading, painting, sketching, knitting, crocheting, weaving or wood shopping. Consider any activity that will allow your mind an escape from noisy, negative internal. 2. Then, for the week in advance of our session, spend at least an hour a day doing one of these things, or experiment with all of them to find the perfect fit.3. Although this is a way to allow yourself to deeply relax for our reading, please continue to use this afterwards! When you know the date of our reading together, take some time to layout a plan for the day/night before, the day/night of and the next day.Put in the same effort to plan this , as if you were going to take a 2 day trip somewhere. Only this time, you won’t be leaving home, you will be prepping to meet your loved one in spirit in the comfort of your own home, in front of your laptop.Plan healthy meals and snacks, shop for them, prepare them if required, and have them ready to go at the appointed time.Hydrate properly, but don’t overdo it. Make sure you have a preferred, non-alcoholic drinks available for these two days.Prepare your sleeping environment so that you will be assured of having deep, healing sleep for those 2 days. Make sure you calculate and plan for the appropriate amount of sleep for each, set the alarms to start and to wake up if necessary.If you need to, plan on taking a nap before the reading.And then, 1 ½ hours before the reading, do the mind relaxing exercise that you have been practicing.During the reading:Prepare a light, easily digestible snack and have it ready if you need it.Have your choice of non-alcoholic beverage available.Set your space up for maximum comfort for yourself.Adjust lighting in your space so that it will give you maximum calm.Remove or turn down the things that will create loud noises that would disrupt your session. Don’t wear tight, restrictive clothing, select soft fabrics, cool in summer or warm inwinter.This is the time to pamper yourself to the maximum.During our session:If you need a break, please allow yourself to ask for it. Your loved one in spirit will definitely be ok with this. And it is my goal to make sure you are the most relaxed you can be the whole time we are together.After the reading:If you feel like sleeping, turn everything off, curl up with your pillow and close your eyes.On the other hand, if you are suddenly filled with exuberant energy, go for a walk or do something wildly energetic and new.Eat when hungry, hydrate as needed, treat yourself in whatever way you require. Allow the experience to settle into your mind and body. Finally, review that first list of things that you have already prepared to relax your mind. Take one of these up and fill your spare time with doing it or them.
