Controlling Psychic Abilities - Help much appreciated.

[Ninjabear]

I appear to have activiated some sort of psychic abilities but don't know how to control them. I feel like I can just send thoughts at people and they will hear them. I once sent the words "I like you" very strongly at someone and they said it back 2 minutes later. I think I lost a job because people were so freaked out! I can also fill the room with an atmosphere using my vibrations which I feel is very common.

The former bothers me the most. I feel like my thoughts are very loud and people can hear them. This could be paranoia except I feel I am thinking about this very rationally and with a healthy sceptecism of my own mind.

How do I stop this from happening?

Hi Ninjabear,

There really is no need to be concerned about people picking up on some of your thoughts, unless you wish to hide them from others. You will simply have to screen your own thoughts for suitability if you are determined not to be 'heard'.

Also, many people, particularly women will read your face and expressions which displays much of our thoughts. So then will you work on develping a poker-face?

Honestly, you have nothing to fear. And no, you weren't sacked for your abilities and freaking people out. As for filling a room with atmosphere, all people do this naturally as they enter a room, just some do moreso than others, depending on the amount and degree of energy they are running at the time. Again, this is nothing to be worried about.

Lastly, I think the more important thing to work on would be to assertain why you feel worried about this, and why you would be concerned if anyone were to pick up on a thought you had.

Monitor your thoughts and all will be well. Besides, the monitoring process will begin to allow you to be present in the Now moment rather than being anywhere else but.

No offence meant my friend.

Would you want everyone knowing everything that you thought? Including sexual things? Bad things you think about other people? Weird random subconsious things that everyone thinks? Trust me, it's scary. You're just sitting there, then everyone starts talking about what you just thought.

As a natural empath, I have found I can turn it off

1. Be denying I'm actually doing anything abnormal (tell myself I'm NOT actually using my ability)
2. By refusing to focus on it (keep your mind occupied with work, your friendships, etc.)

I'll admit, my problem's not quite as dramatic as yours, but there's my two points.

I understand how you feel as I am very sensitive with an active random mind that I would not want anyone else reading but I do not have others hear them unless they are telepathic too.

What I do is spend less energy on my thoughts by clearing my mind or focusing on something else as VagusEques said. Sometimes that can be hard so I visualize a psychic shield or believe no one can hear or sense my thoughts.

In this scenario Ninja, it is more likely that you have picked up on the conversation starter thought before the conversation started.

When it comes to sexual thoughts and 'bad' things you may think, I do similar to what Flame has said, which is what I was saying in my first post about being vigilant with our thoughts.

Most people won't realize that they read your mind....its just a thought in their head too. There is nothing to verify it came from you. So.....chill dude!

Your gift is very special, why do you want to get rid of it?  You know, if you get rid of it, you might regret it one day.

The easiest surefire way to quiet your gift so people don't hear your thoughts...
1.) Eat more orange, and red fruits and vegetables. (Not oranges, but eat peaches, red plums, red grapes, carrots, pumpkins.

You could meditate with a grounding stone over your third eye.  (Something black and red).  Try grounding meditation exercises and imagine your energy seeping into the earth. 

There are other less healthy ways to get rid of it.. (eat more junkfood, pleasure your body sexually more often, etc)
