training to be a clairvoyant

[Marty McFly]

Do you have to be born with the gift or can anyone pick it up through meditation and....what else?

What are some good meditation tips to heighten intuition? I find it easier after exercise or star gazing but first thing in the morning is not possible because I find it hard to wake up as it is.

[Anna Conlan]

We are all born with the gift of clairvoyance, but for some of us it is easier to develop because it is our primary clair. There is also clairaudience, clairsentience and claircognizance. You may find that clairvoyance is not what comes most natural to you, it may be another clair, but you can still fully develop your clairvoyance if you want to.

To develop your clairvoyance, work on visualization. Spirit does communicate with you through your visual imagination, so it's good to strengthen it and flex it a bit to make it more of a better vehicle for intuition.

I like this visualization exercise: (I took this from Willian Hewitt's Psychic development for beginners): imagine yourself holding seven balloons, each one a different colour – red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet. One by one, in your mind's eye, let each one go and watch it float up to the sky. It's actually harder to do than it sounds if your visual imagination is a bit rusty.

Well,

This may seem like a silly answer, but the mere act of becoming more spiritually developed and aligned will typically increase your psychic abilities.

They claim that these abilities come from Source, so that would make sense. Align yourself with Source, develop yourself spiritually, and many "psychic" abilities will just naturally arise and develop if you let them.
