Dr. Jennifer Lisa Vest -TwoSpirit artist, poet, healer
Cultivating harmlessness and integrity are key signposts on the spiritual journey. This week’s guest, Dr. Jennifer Lisa Vest, has extensive expertise across many spiritual modalities and traditions, making her the perfect person to write the book, “The Ethical Psychic: A Beginner's Guide to Healing with Integrity, Avoiding Unethical Encounters, and Using Your Gifts for Good.” Dr. Vest’s wisdom is a much needed guide, not just for psychics, but for all spiritual seekers.
Highlights:
The need in these times for spiritual maturity and discipline in our practices.
How Spirit guided the writing, timing and publishing of “The Ethical Psychic”
Dr. Vest is developing the school, Metatron’s Academy of Spirit & Science, to bring together Psychic Information with Science.
How do we create standards and guidelines for intuitive work?
The misguided notion that ‘if you’re born with spiritual gifts, you don’t need to hone them’ can create a lot of harm in the world.
Dr. Vest’s early spiritual experiences of remembering her birth, going to ‘Spirit School,’ meeting spirit teachers and being singled out by her great grandmother as the one who had the same gifts.
Her varied and extensive training (often unplanned from the personality perspective) from native elders in indigenous traditions.
You have to be able to deliver your gifts on demand and be accurate, which requires lots of practice and feedback.
Training to use your gifts requires both the technical aspects and also character development.
Becoming an ethical psychic or healer is not just about what gifts you have, it includes being a good person and contributing to society.
“You don’t get to be a psychic on Monday and then be a jerk on Tuesday.”
“You have to life a high vibration life in order to consistently bring through high vibration information.”
