hoW TO BREAK CONTACT

WITH THE SPIRIT WORLD

 First of all….What do I mean by "breaking contact"? 

Basically, when I use the phrase "breaking contact" here, I am using it to refer to the phase of mediumship that comes

when a medium seeks to end conscious communication with a spirit (or spirits) and return back to a normal waking reality. 

           This "breaking of contact" is not a permanent break, as energetically, we are all one, and therefore always connected. 

However, it is a diminishment of the bond between a medium &  a spirit, and a return of the medium's consciousness to her own body,

so that after a round of conscious spirit communication, she can go about her life in a healthy & normal way.  

Most of our development together up until this point has focused on “making”—not “breaking”—contact.  However, it is just as important to be able to BREAK spirit contact as it is to establish this contact. 

The ability to break contact is useful if you ever encounter a “dark” spirit.  However, it is also useful in a more general sense, in that once you are done practicing your spirit communications, you need to be able to return to yourself, and go about your day in an undisturbed manner.  In order to do this, you need to know how to BREAK CONTACT.

            Whether you are simply trying to “wrap up” your mediumship communication for the day, or if you feel that there is a spirit “intruding” upon you, the remedy is essentially the same….One of the easiest things that you can do to break a spirit connection is to immediately GET UP & MOVE AROUND and do something very physical or mundane.....

Here are some examples of activities that help to break the connection….

Eat
Dance or aerobic workout
Housecleaning
Gardening
Wash dishes or do laundry
Balance Your Check book
Scrub sink or bathtub
Go over children's homework or paperwork
Cook a meal or chop veggies or fruits
Go shopping
Talk with a friend or loved one about something that is light, trivial, mundane, or fun (NOT spirit related)
Work a crossword puzzle or word jumble
Play a video game
Watch a comedy
Read a romance novel
Do home improvement projects
Play with pets or children
And so forth...... 

I know that these things do help me TREMENDOUSLY when I need to "break contact" with spirits.  Remember that being able to "break contact" is useful, whether the spirits are positive or negative.  Even when we deal with only "positive" spirits, we must remember to formally "break contact" when the communication is done, so that we can safely & gracefully live our lives in the physical plane, as we are here to do.

The only exception I make to this is with what I call the "control spirit" or "control guide".  This is your main spirit guide (or "guides"....if it is a group) that are with you all the time.  My control guides are "The Atlantean Teachers".  I do not ever "break contact" with them, as they are now always operating in the background of my consciousness. However, they are very respectful, and would never impinge on my reality without my consent, unless there was a big emergency.

If you do ever need to break contact with a “dark” spirit, remember first & foremost to not give into the fear.  Whenever you feel a "negative" or dark spirit coming in, invoke the name that you use to call upon God or Divinity.  Also, invoke your guardian guides & angels, as well as the spirit of Jesus the Christ (even if you are not Christian, Jesus the Christ is known on the astral for his superb ability to banish dark spirits).  Also, specifically call upon the ARCHANGEL MICHAEL to protect & defend you, for he is the protector of Light.

            In addition to using the suggestions in this article for “breaking contact”, please refer to the chapter in your new curriculum notebook on “Protection”. 

What is the difference between “breaking contact” and invoking “psychic protection”?  Establishing psychic protection is something that you should do at the beginning of a séance or spirit communication.  “Breaking Contact” is something that you do at the end of communication, when you are ready to cease communicating with a spirit and to go back about your ordinary life.
