Telepathy refers to a form of direct mind-to-mind communication between two people. Thoughts and feelings can be exchanged, using only the minds of the communicants.

All of us have latent telepathic abilities. This is something which most of us cannot use consciously, however; like any other skill, telepathy must be practiced. There are times when we use telepathy without even realizing it; but what of you could develop telepathy to the point where you could use it at will?

There is no shortage of skeptics when it comes to telepathy, or in fact about any mental ability. However, consider this first , how many times have you been on top of the world when you run into someone you know who is feeling miserable; and after talking to this person for only a short time, you begin to take on the same mood? Probably more times than you can count.

Was it what they said? Not at all, at least not with their words. It is telepathy which has allowed you to feel what your friend is feeling.

It has been shown in studies that the part of the subconscious mind which controls telepathy can be activated. What you need to do is to focus on the person with whom you want to communicate in this way.

Just like the use of language, telepathy has to be learned. As children, we learn spoken and body language from our parents. We learn by imitating these methods of communication; similarly, telepathy may be learned.

Most likely, telepathy is not something your parents taught you; but this doesnt mean that you cant use this ability. It only means that you havent learned how to make use of it yet.

Here are some methods which can help you to develop your inherent telepathic abilities.

Mental-Muscle training

Just as we have to learn how to control our vocal chords as children to form speech, your telepathic muscles will also need some training.

It is easiest to access the part of your brain which controls telepathic function when you are in a trance state. You can reach this state of deep relaxation by using relaxation techniques including meditation.

Learn to relax your mind so that you can reach your trance state easily. When you can reach this point, youve begun to train your mind to be controlled at will.

Focus

Learning to maintain your minds focus while youre in a trance state can be quite difficult to master. During your next deep relaxation session, focus on someone youd like to contact you.

Visualize this person, trying to project positive thoughts towards them. Next, visualize them receiving these thoughts. Keep focused on this until you feel that the person youre thinking of has had time to receive these thoughts.

Then stop focusing on them at all. Stop the contact so that they can feel the communication being broken off; this should make them attempt to reestablish this link.

Keep practicing this technique; once you start telepathy training with a partner, this practice should have prepared you well for sending and receiving telepathic communications.

Partner Practice

Choose one person to be the receiver and one to be the sender. The sender should choose simple items to project. Choose items with clear, bright colors that are easily recognizable.

The receiver should keep a writing utensil and paper close at hand so that they can write down any communications they receive from the sender.

After ending the session, the sender and receiver should compare their results and see how successful the session has been. Dont worry if its difficult as first. Like any other skill, it will become easier with practice.
