Allison DuBois - Don't Kiss Them Good-bye

This does not mean that you can never make a difference. Young psychics, please keep in mind that sometimes we are given the opportunity to intervene and prolong someone’s life.

Say you have a vision that your father is going to be in a car accident, and in the vision he’s wearing a red shirt and carrying his golf clubs. You wake up the next morning and your dad is on his way out the door wearing a red shirt and carrying his golf clubs.

Stop him! Explain your dream and ask him to wait awhile or even change his plans. You may be receiving a form of intervention from the other side.

If, on the other hand, in your vision you see a bridge in Tibet being blown up, it’s probably out of your hands. Ask a higher power to please lend a gentle hand to those on that bridge who need positive energy. Don’t internalize a vision and let it take a toll on you physically

Often young psychics aren’t listened to by the proper authorities. The parents of a psychic might try contacting law enforcement if a vision is extraordinarily detailed or significant and explaining that the child had a “dream” (this is a safer term than “vision”). They can explain that the child saw something happen and it would make the child feel a whole lot better if an officer could just check it out.

Many police officers are parents and are usually happy to put a child’s mind at ease. Who knows, maybe your child’s vision will help somebody, and if not, your child will have at least expressed the information and will feel better. Visions that aren’t shared build up in the system, causing stress. Always encourage expression.

For what it’s worth, even well-seasoned forensic psychics who have detailed information on terrorist attacks and murders are often ignored by law enforcement. The authorities have a tough time determining who is legitimate and who is wasting their time. Tell your child not to take it personally if his or her information is ignored. It happens to the best of us. This doesn’t mean all law enforcement agencies turn a blind eye to psychics, but many still do.

Teens need to ask their guides to not give them more than they can handle. We are provided what we can handle, and sometimes a little more. If it becomes too much, we have to ask our guides to limit what we are exposed to and remove some of the weight that’s causing us to feel burdened.

As for the girl with the premonitions, my best advice to her parents was to determine whether the maimings and killings she saw were in any way preventable. For instance, could she tell who the people in the visions were? Did she get extremely specific names or addresses? Such information could be used to forewarn the police. There was no guarantee that the police would listen, but the girl with the information could sleep at night knowing that she had shared her information.

Of course, we must always remember to use discretion. Only share information if it’s specific. Psychics have to be careful about unloading on people to make ourselves feel better. It has to be done in the receiver’s best interest, not ours. If it’s not in the receiver’s best interest, ask your guides to relieve you of the information, write it in your journal if needed, and let it go.

Only contact authorities with information that they can check out and that is useful in prevention or conviction. Everything else is useless to them. If there isn’t enough detailed information to establish a crime’s timing or the identity of the person involved, then the information is not enough for any intervention.

If you bug the police too often with every little feeling that you get, they will start to not listen to you. You will be branded a wacko psychic and you will lose all credibility with law enforcement. You want to keep this door open in case you find that you really can help solve a crime.

Remember that not all psychics want to help solve crimes, which is fine. This segment is for the ones who crave to be involved in forensics. You have to fine-tune your skills to make a difference, but you can do it.

And sometimes you have to let go of information and ask a higher power to take care of the person in question. We are only human and can only do so much for others.

Teen psychics must learn to keep their guides in check. I tell my guides not to allow any negative or mischievous energy to come into contact with me. Guides are very accommodating and will act in your best interest. Parents, you can ask your own guides to watch over your children; I do. I know my kids are guided, loved, and protected by my guides as well as by their own.

One way to regain peace is to visualize your heart filled with a radiant white light that expands until it has filled you completely and exits your body through every pore. The white light is there to protect and soothe. This exercise is quite beneficial; I do it myself. Another helpful exercise is to visualize a person on the other side to whom you feel connected. Have that person hold a bucket and place all your problems inside for the spirit to take away. Loved ones on the other side enjoy easing our anxiety. This exercise also strengthens the two-way relationship between those who have passed and those who still remain here.

Teens wanting to sharpen their skills should practice on willing friends and family members, keeping in mind that not all their messages will mean something significant. Sometimes the sitter (the person being read) doesn’t expect a serious topic to surface and will not own up to the information. It took me time to realize that if I uncovered something that the sitter wanted to hide, he or she might fib about it.

This was a difficult, disheartening lesson for me, because I would feel so sure that I was right and the sitter would deny it. I hold myself to a high standard. After several instances in which I received third-party verification that I was right, I realized what was happening. Sometimes when I was walking out the door, my client’s husband or friend would lean in and tell me that my information was correct.

Now when I feel certain of my information I don’t let denial bother me. I let it fuel me to get to the explanation behind my information. Then I let it go. If somebody isn’t ready to share something private, that’s okay, but don’t go see a psychic if you’ve got something to hide.

Sometimes mediums are shown images that require us to play charades with the other side, and sometimes we misinterpret what we are shown. That is why describing whatever we see to the sitter is important; it’s a purer form of relaying a message. It’s not as effective for a gifted person to try to rationalize the information that they receive. You don’t want to taint the information with inferences of your own.

Teens need to remember not to compare themselves with the psychics portrayed in movies. When I was young I questioned whether I had the gift. I looked at the psychics portrayed in movies, searching for a shred of commonality. I couldn’t relate.

I know that the discovery and acceptance of my gift was delayed because I had no role models. I want to let all people know that there are plenty of people in business suits with college degrees who possess psychic and mediumship abilities. There are people from all walks of life. There are doctors, mothers, cashiers, teachers, stockbrokers, musicians, children, who appear to be nothing like one another, yet who have a connection in their ability to communicate with the dead and see things that are yet to come.

If you are a teen with the gift and you don’t want to develop it, that is fine. The other side doesn’t want to give more than a person can handle. Tuning the other side out takes a little practice, but it can be done. If a person makes a conscious decision and ignores the messages, eventually they should fade and be harder to hear. I don’t believe this means that the person no longer has the gift. It is still there; it is just dormant. Turning away from the gift will sometimes leave you with an underlying edgy feeling, as if there is something missing in your life that you can’t put your finger on.
