Discover practical ways to recognize and trust your inner guidance in an accelerated psychic development class that moves from fundamentals to real-world use. The session explores how intuitive nudges show up in everyday life, such as changing lanes to avoid delays, choosing when to seek care, recognizing business openings, weighing job offers, sensing dynamics in love and relationships, and, for healers, perceiving a client’s aura. You will explore how your chakras relate to psychic perception, identify the intuitive ability that is strongest for you, quiet mental chatter so you can receive information more clearly, interpret what you perceive, and build confidence in your insights. The class introduces a variety of techniques to deepen understanding, includes guided practice in reading for others, and offers experience with psychic tools. Led by tutor Lee VanZyl, it includes class notes and a certificate upon completion. Plan to bring a notebook and pen. Cost: $111. Past participants describe the material as clear, grounded, and immediately useful, noting that exercises helped balance intuition with logic and that they were able to give successful readings by the end. Some also appreciated the instructor’s direct teaching style and real-world experience.
