How old were you when you became aware of your intuitive abilities? Were you a child who sensed the presence of relatives who had passed on? Perhaps you had strong feelings about people or situations you couldn’t explain. Chances are you didn’t know exactly what was going on. Hopefully, you were surrounded by supportive adults who helped you understand these experiences. If not, you might have felt frightened and alone.
Every child is unique and special; however, some children are born with an extra sense that makes them more sensitive to the world around them. This sensitivity can manifest in many ways, such as feeling emotions more strongly or having a heightened intuition. Some children may even have psychic abilities, such as clairvoyance or telepathy.
A parent, teacher, family member, or friend can make a huge difference in supporting a highly sensitive child. As a parent, it can be challenging to understand and support a child with these abilities. Here are some tips on how to help your child who may be a sensitive or psychic:
- Listen and Validate Their Experiences: When your child comes to you with stories about seeing or feeling things you can’t see, it’s important to listen and validate their experiences. Let them know that it’s okay to feel what they’re feeling and that you believe them.
- Teach Grounding and Protection Techniques: Sensitive and psychic children may feel overwhelmed by the energy around them. Teach them grounding and protection techniques, such as deep breathing or visualizing a protective bubble around themselves. This can help them feel more centered and protected.
- Encourage Self-Care: It’s important for sensitive and psychic children to take care of themselves. Encourage them to take breaks when needed, spend time in nature, and do activities that bring them joy and peace.
- Find a Community: Finding a community of like-minded individuals can benefit sensitive and psychic children. Look for local groups or online communities where they can connect with others who share their experiences.
- Seek Professional Help: If your child’s experiences are causing them distress or interfering with their daily life, seek professional help. A therapist or counselor who specializes in working with sensitive and psychic individuals can provide guidance and support.
Remember that having sensitivity or psychic abilities can be a gift, but it can also be a challenge. As a parent, your role is to support and guide your child as they navigate their experiences and find their own way in the world. With patience and understanding, you can help your child embrace their unique abilities and thrive.
