Michelle Robinson Medium: Guiding Souls Through Spirit Connection

Mediumship: Connecting Beyond the Veil:

From a young age, I experienced premonitions and a deep sense of knowing, often communicating with loved ones in spirit. However, it wasn’t until later in life that I fully embraced my gift, after repeatedly receiving messages from other people’s loved ones who wanted me to pass them on. Now, as an evidential medium, I am dedicated to providing heartfelt readings that offer messages of love, reassurance, and validation from those who have passed. The comfort and healing that this brings to others is what drives me to continue this work, despite it often being understood.

Beyond personal readings, workshops, guest speaking events and running online intuitive development circle’s, I host a YouTube channel Michelle Robinson Medium, where I speak of all things spiritual and offer intuitive guidance. This project brings awareness to the power of intuition and spirit helping to demystify and strengthen intuition for many, using a grounded, logical and informative approach.

Techniques Used in Mediumship

There are various methods mediums use to connect with spirit and deliver messages. Some common techniques I use include:

• Clairvoyance (Clear Seeing): I receive mental images, symbols, or visions as though they are memories—yet they are not my own. This is called viewing through the mind’s eye. Clairvoyance has always been strong for me, allowing me to see images like a movie telling a story. When combined with my other Clairs, this creates a clearer picture, helping me accurately interpret spirit communication. Sometimes, symbols come through, like seeing multiple money bags to indicate financial matters, or being shown the Aboriginal flag to confirm someone’s nationality.

• Clairaudience (Clear Hearing): Spirit often communicates through words, names, sounds, or even songs. This Clair took time for me to trust, as I had to quiet my mind—something that doesn’t always come naturally to me! Spirit can be soft-spoken, but I’ve also had humorous moments, such as a spirit from the ‘back row’ yelling out their name for recognition, much to their loved one’s amusement.

• Clairsentience (Clear Feeling): I often feel physical sensations, emotions, or intuitive nudges that reveal details about a message or presence. Sometimes, this manifests as love or pride directed at the sitter, or even discomfort in an area of the body that needs attention. For example, I once felt intense pressure in my lower abdomen, which turned out to be related to a client’s digestive issues. I can always ask spirit to dial back sensations when needed.

• Claircognizance (Clear Knowing): I receive information instantly and without prior knowledge. This Clair took me a while to trust, but over time, I’ve learned to accept the insights that come through without second-guessing them. For instance, I might just know an emotional block that is holding someone back or sense a timeframe for an event without knowing how I know.

• Trance Mediumship: Occasionally, when delivering messages, I find myself in a deep state where information flows effortlessly. However, I don’t fully enter a trance, as I prefer to maintain my connection with the sitter.

• Psychometry: I can hold an object or read a photograph to tune into the energy attached to it, offering insights about its history and owner. This allows me to provide readings even when the client isn’t physically present.

• Channeling & Automatic Writing: I use channeling as a way of communicating and bringing through information from the angelic realm, bringing through often insightful, informative and uplifting insights. A selection of these channelings can be found on my website. Automatic writing is how I first started reading for others when I was hesitant to share my experiences. To this day, I use automatic writing to connect with the angelic realm and receive channeled messages from my higher self or guide.

  
  

Sensing Spirit Energy and Bringing Through Evidence

A key part of mediumship is learning to sense and interpret spirit energy. Each spirit carries a distinct energetic signature, revealing details about their personality, gender, physical appearance, and emotions that were held when they were living. Developing sensitivity to these differences allows for stronger evidential messages.

Techniques to practice include:

• Energy Comparison: I shift my awareness between different spirit energies to notice contrasts in personality, age, or presence. Before a reading, I often sense spirit waiting beside my left shoulder, eager to connect with their loved one.

• Spirit Identification Practice: I invite spirit to stand beside me and focus on the details I intuitively perceive. Are they tall or short? Young or elderly? Warm or reserved? Sometimes, I even sense their hand resting on mine.

• Asking for Confirmation: If I receive impressions about a spirit’s identity, I internally ask them for more details, such as names, places, or shared memories. I remind myself to relax—pushing for answers can block the flow of information, like a door that swings both ways.

  
  

Developing Your Mediumship Abilities

For aspiring mediums and psychics, developing skills takes dedication, practice, and trust.

Here are a few key techniques I’ve found helpful:

• Meditation & Quieting the Mind: A still, receptive mind is crucial for clear spirit communication. Focused breathing, mindfulness, and guided meditation help reduce mental chatter and create an open space for receiving messages. This was not always easy for me to achieve, so guided meditations are useful in this instance.

• Raising Vibrations: Spirit operates at a higher frequency, so raising your own energy is key. Practices like gratitude, positive affirmations, and spending time in nature can help. I love spending time in nature, and it is here that my own communication is often the strongest.

• Evidence-Based Readings: Providing verifiable information strengthens credibility and confidence. Names, dates, specific memories, or unique details can confirm spirit communication. There are techniques that can help determine information such as determining a timeline through leaning or ‘energetically travelling’ forward in time.

• Interpreting Symbols & Messages: Spirit often communicates through images, feelings, or metaphors. Learning to trust first impressions rather than overanalysing is essential. Trust can be developed through practise and some of the techniques I have included here.

• Ethics & Responsibility: Mediumship carries a responsibility to be honest and compassionate. I ensure that I approach every reading with integrity, set clear intentions, and never embellish or fabricate details. I endeavour not to be judgemental in my life so that I can leave judgement at the door during a reading and remain open for the sitter. Due to the sensitive nature of some readings, I’ve also completed trauma-informed training to assist with the communication aspect of difficult topics. I find maintaining integrity in my life and working on my own emotional issues overall, is key to my being able to provide great readings for sitter. 

  
  

Grounding, Centring, and Strengthening the Third Eye

• Grounding & centring: Staying grounded helps me maintain balance while working with spirit. Visualisation techniques, walking in nature, or simply placing my bare feet on the ground are effective ways to stay present.

• Why Strengthen the Third Eye? The third eye, located between the eyebrows, is the centre of intuitive vision. Strengthening it through visualisation, meditation, and exercises enhances the clarity of messages received from spirit. I use guided meditations daily to maintain openness and calm.

  
  

The Power of Journaling in Mediumship

Journaling has been a valuable tool for my mediumship journey. Writing down experiences allows me to track patterns, validate messages, and build confidence. Documenting spirit impressions, dreams, and synchronicities enhances awareness and trust in the process.

How Mediumship Transforms Lives

Living an intuitive life means moving through the world with greater trust and awareness. Many of my clients have experienced profound shifts and I would like to share some examples of this:

• Improved Decision-Making: Spirit guidance helps them make choices that align with their highest good. A woman was at a crossroads in her career, unsure whether to leave a stable job for a more fulfilling but uncertain opportunity. In a reading, her grandmother in spirit came through, acknowledging her doubts and reminding her of her lifelong passion for helping others. The spirit message encouraged her to trust in herself and take the leap. With this reassurance, she pursued the new opportunity and found success in a career that truly aligned with her soul’s purpose.

  
  

• Healing and Emotional Release: Connecting with loved ones in spirit provides closure and peace. A man struggled with unresolved grief after the sudden passing of his father. During a mediumship session, his father came through, expressing love and acknowledging the things left unsaid. He reassured his son that he had heard his words of apology and forgiveness in private moments. This brought the man deep emotional relief, allowing him to move forward without guilt and with a renewed sense of peace in their connection.

  
  

• Deepened Spiritual Connection: Mediumship strengthens relationships with guides, ancestors, and the higher self. A client was feeling disconnected from her spiritual path and unsure of her purpose. During a reading, her grandmother conveyed insights about her gifts in healing and intuition. The guide encouraged her to explore energy healing, something she had always been drawn to but doubted. After the session, she committed to deepening her spiritual practice, which led her to take a leap and train as a Reiki healer.

  
  

• Increased Confidence: Developing intuitive abilities removes doubt and strengthens self-trust. A woman in intuitive mentorship had always sensed things but second-guessed herself. Through guided exercises, she practiced tuning into spirit and trusting her impressions. One day, during a practice session, she was able to tune into her grandfather who had passed and hold his hand. She also sensed a message that he was trying to convey to her, and this has strengthened her connection to Spirit and trusting the messages she receives.
