How to look professional - a guide to powerful tools that create a deep spiritual connection.

Beginning your spiritual journey to channeling impactful readings and healings can seem intimidating.
Luckily, there are a vast range of powerful tools we can harness as readers and healers that create avenues for deep spiritual connection with clients, and unlock our innermost truth.

In my spiritual journey, I have discovered that different modalities work best for particular purposes when channeling for a client or seeking healing for myself. My first love is, of course, my tarot deck.Then came oracle cards, crystals, pendulums, then books (even books are a tool!).
So much goodness was found through these tools, and I don’t know about you, but once I started I found it difficult to curb my enthusiasm… too many card decks!


Knowing what spiritual tool is right for you depends on, but is not limited to, what you want to use it for. Let’s begin with the four pillars of our Self, what spiritual tools work best and why.


The Body is the container for the human experience. The body is fundamental to creating a strong basis for any spiritual evolution. We hold our memories in our physical selves, not just the mind, and anything that feels a little bit different will spook us. Spiritual tools that are tactile work best and anchor you to the physical realm.. Crystals are ideal to connect us to our physical selves as they are of the earth. They feel safe and their properties connect the unknown universal energy to our earthly experience. They are an extension of ourselves; our family.


The Emotional Self is feelings that cannot be expressed through words. Articulating a message that is “felt” rather than “spoken” tends to fall flat. I don’t know how many times I find myself saying the same thing four different ways to clients and still feeling like I haven’t given it justice. Emotions are strongest when giving or receiving a healing. So, bypass those words and get straight to the “feels” with sound. When healing; crystal bowls, singing bowls, tuning forks and music are excellent ways to send your message. When reading; the best tools incorporate as much colour, texture and storytelling as possible such as tarot and oracle cards, emotion charts and aura photography.


The Mental Self puts up the biggest fight and strongest pushback when it comes to spiritual tools. Once you have strengthened the physical and emotional selves, the mind is easier to work with. The mind will lie, tell you you’re wrong and sabotage your efforts to work with spiritual tools. To work with the mind Self, you must speak your truth without mental interference. I find Tarot cards best: they reflect honestly without prejudice. We can attempt to skew what the card is showing, but the reading will fall flat. When confronted with the truth, anxiety and doubt disappear. You can use the tarot for healing as well as readings - there are no limits. Alternatively, for healing, journalling is a great spiritual tool. 


The Spiritual Self is the realms of the mystic. Here everything is possible and undeniable. It speaks directly to the Higher Heart, beyond the Soul and straight to the source. To access this realm, even for a brief moment, can bring profound shifts. A couple of spiritual tools I recommend are incense or oils (smell/taste) and toning (sound). Spiritual tools using these senses must be used alongside meditation and energy healing, for example, to embed the “mystic” experience.
Once embedded in the Soul experience, they become triggers that immediately transport you to this special state. Try adding a scent or sound to your next healing or reading session and experiment when you need it in your daily life. Seek out a trained therapist for best results.


Spiritual tools are amazing when you see them working in action. It is witnessing your intuition in real time and validation and confidence grows with each connection. Over the years, many people have confided in me that they have abandoned these tools for a variety of reasons. Their reasons are valid, however I noticed a couple of underlying themes:


  • Fear from childhood conditioning. Religion, scary stories we are told as children and movies such as The Exorcist (yikes!)
  • Fear of the feeling that is associated with the connection to the spiritual tool. A thrill, or anticipation, that accompanies some readings is felt in the body and is associated with spirits and guides blending with our aura.
  • Frustration that the answers are not what was expected, getting bored with the whole thing and calling it fake.


Every one of these experiences are valid and true for the person involved,but it does not make it true for everyone. Some people resonate with their spiritual tools and some do not - it’s about finding the tools that are right for you. Here are some points to consider if you feel this way or are on the fence about using spiritual tools:
​
  • If you don’t like using them, then they are not for you. There are many other ways to connect to your spirit nature if you are serious about your Soul growth. These tools are only one avenue.
  • Spiritual tools are just that, tools. They hold no power over you or your practice. The power is in their innate nature and your connection with them activates your Divine Power. This requires Self Awareness and when you are ready the leap of growth that is required to work with the tools is provided at the perfect pace for your highest good. 
  • The quickening in the physical body combined with the “out of body” sensations can seem like you are at the mercy of something “other”. This is the unconscious becoming conscious. It can feel very weird, so working with a mentor helps ease this process.You are never alone.​

It all comes down to intent. What are your intentions for you soul growth, your intentions for yourself and how you wish you use the spiritual tools. Are you looking to help or control. They will expose you to your truth. Are you ready?
