Professionals who give "readings" are able to intentionally access expanded states of awareness and tap into vast sources of information. They perceive and receive information intuitively in various ways. One who sees visions is called Clairvoyant. One who obtains direct knowledge or senses the information through their feelings, (such as having a "knowing" feeling about something) is called Clairsentient. Clairaudience is the ability to hear the information. These skills ... this sensitivity... can be learned & developed, enabling anyone to experience higher levels of consciousness that are beyond time-space. Like the Shaman and Medicine Man, Psychics use a form of telepathy to connect and communicate with non-physical entities, i.e. spirits (energy). Psychic energy readings can be given face-to-face (in-person) or remotely (by phone).
