When I first began developing my psychic abilities I practiced with friends and family a lot. But I began to realize that it can be difficult to read for people you already know, because you have too much information to be objective. So I asked my friend Sarah to help. She comes from a large family, but I hadn't met any of her family members. I asked for their names and the towns that they lived in. (The latter helps me focus.) I then described to Sarah what psychic impressions I received about her siblings and parents. She was able to confirm when I was accurate, or not, which helped me to practice and hone my skills. |

I call these unofficial readings ''minireadings." As a way to practice, I ask friends for the names and locations of their friends and relatives. I can pick up information, but never need to share it with the person I'm reading. For example, my friend Sarah (whom I mentioned in the previous paragraph) could tell me whether my information about her Uncle Herbert was correct, but she never needed to let Uncle Herb know I'd done the reading. You can do this, too. |

Here's an exercise that you can do to practice your own minireadings. As I explained, it's most useful when you can get psychic impressions about someone you don't know, so ask your friend to give you the name of someone he knows well, but whom you don't know at all. Clearly, the person you're reading doesn't need to be physically present for you to get information about them. |

Try to have fun with this exercise for evoking intuitive impressions. I consistently find that people who feel okay about sounding a little silly and "making things up" get better results with this. Perhaps it's an aspect of that relaxed focus that keeps coming up. |
