Information is Healing...But I'm not a "Healer"

I view myself as a Psychic and a Medium. The truest sense of those words. I provide Information and Information is Healing.
Psychic...Reading Past/Present/Future and Decoding Energy.
Medium...Being an Instrument for spirits of loved ones to use as a method of communication to those still in physicality.
That's it. Mediumship, sure, there's some messages which are wonderful and lovely. But, the REAL Healing within a client comes forth through presenting a client with Evidential Information from their loved ones in that which my tiny little human mind has a hard time comprehending.
Since I started back in 2018, there's been a massive change in this "psychic industry" and I'm burn out by it all. I'm sure (possibly) that you are too. It has just become tacky, tasteless, and annoying. I'd rather go back to the days when all media outlets were attacking Sylvia Browne and John Edward. Not saying that those two deserved it at all! Sylvia and John are HUGE Role Models for me! I have the greatest respect for them. I'm just talking about how that time was just less of the NOISE in culture.
Now every psychic and medium is just like a spiritual teacher, prophet, and voice for the almighty XYZ. And what's worse...psychic readings are presented as a form of therapy. No no no. I've been to therapy and I've done professional readings since 2018. Readings are not Therapy. They are very different crafts. Readings are a TOOL.
I recently read my favorite book of Sylvia's again and she continuously discussed how a person should not take a psychic's "advice" over a professional like a medical doctor. To use the Reading as a Tool.
John mentioned in one of his books that anyone who exclaims that they know everything about the illusive "Other Side" should be ignored.
These two are just GEMS!
Am I just a grandpa now? No, I just respect the true craft of this skillset. Lord knows that I'd be a millionaire if I use all the catch phrases of what is popular. Throwing Law of Attraction workshops. Marketing myself as a Healer, Coach, and whatever buzz-word-title you find while browsing social media and YouTube. Empath this. Galaxy Beings that.
Just because I'm a psychic and a medium doesn't mean that I know more than anyone else. All it means is that my intuitive skills are developed enough to provide Information that is accurate, meaningful, insightful, and evidential.
I draw upon my experiences losing my mother at 13 as a means to help me work with people during mediumistic readings. Grieving. I'm not a grief coach. I'm not a grief counselor. I'm just a medium and I am just a means for Spirit to use as a method of communication.
Angel this. Other Side that. Maybe it is just my personality and my likes/dislikes, but I just roll my eyes at all of this fluffy language. But don't get me wrong!
There absolutely is something more Expansive and more Mysterious which we experience when we discard our physical bodies, but I have no idea what that is. I just have theories which are always changing.
I like to think that my clients appreciate my honesty and lack of a cartoon-presentation of this work. I'm not here to love bomb you nor explain the power of positive thinking to attract what you want. I think they come to me because I provide them with Information. That's it. And hopefully they enjoy chatting with me, but I never know.
Pretty much all my blog posts are exclaiming my distaste for this "psychic industry", but I feel like people need this so they aren't fooled and taken advantage of by so much bullshit.
I don't know the Laws of the Universe. Karma this. Reality Creation that.
I just Read and provide Information and Information is Healing. Truth is Healing even if it may sting at first.
PSI is the magic and I play the Intuitive Instrument.
I think also why I write these entries is so people understand more about how to use me as a TOOL. I don't want to disappoint someone when they come to me thinking I'm just a regurgitation of what is viewed on the internet. I'm very much about informed consent which is why I wrote The Experience page.
What the hell happened to just being a Psychic and a Medium? A "normal", "plain" Psychic Medium. I'm not a Healer. I want to help using my skills and my experience while I also strive to continue my own human homework.
