A Psychic Answers The Skeptics
Lisa Williams (Medium, Talk Show Host, Author) gives expert video advice on: What do you say to people who think you're lying about speaking to the dead?; What do you say to skeptics who say psychics are just trying to make money?; What is the difference between a gut feeling and a premonition? and more...
What do you say to people who think you're lying about speaking to the dead?
Another people says oh you're lying you can't speak to the dead and you know i use to that comment because my father is a....... cynic you'd ever mate he just simply does not believe and that's father and I'll say to them you know some people half of believe that this can happen, let them have it, let them have to comfort on the closure that they need, you may find it in the different way, so those.......in the cynic in sidewalk I can never trace my mind unless I've been through it, and I say to them as long as you have believe? as long that you know the words that strives for living homely in this world and it doesn't matter what you believe.
What do you say to skeptics who say psychics are just trying to make money?
I get a lot of criticism over people, over myself doing readings for money, but it's like anybody. A musician has a gift of creating music, they still have to live. I have a gift of helping those who need it, I still have to live. And at the end of the day, if I had to work as well, as a day time job and do another, you know, maybe bread and butter job if you want to put it that way, I wouldn't have time to help those who really need it and who really would gain so much from using my gift. So it's a really tough question and it's really hard, it was really hard for me in the beginning to actually put a price on my readings. But I had to because I had to make a decision. Do I want to stay in my boring daytime job or do I really want to give somebody closure and help and comfort? And unfortunately I will have to charge them because I have to live.
What is the difference between a gut feeling and a premonition?
The difference between a gut feeling and a premonition, it's like there's a fine line. A gut feeling is our own higher intuition saying, "yes we should do this" or "no we shouldn't", and we should always to that because that's our higher self. A premonition is where we see something so clearly in our mind of an incident that is going to happen and we just know it's real. And in a premonition often it's like having that deja vu moment where we know we've been here before; we know it's going to happen. So, you know, the gut feeling is making us aware, the actual premonition is showing us the whole picture.
What is the difference between coincidence and paranormal ability?
To me, when some asks me, what's the difference between a coincidence and having a paranormal ability, I don't really feel there's much difference. I feel that things happen for a reason. Whether you have a psychic ability or an awareness, fate has a hand in everything that we do, and some people would say they're coincidences. For those to happen, you don't actually have to have a psychic ability.
Are angels real?
Personally I believe they are because I have had an experience where I have asked for an angelic force to come near me, and it has come near me. And also in a meeting which was incredible, I said to my client, the angels are around you. And as we were talking and out of nowhere, and there could not have been any way that this could have happened, the tiniest whitest feather just floated down between us. To me, that was angels.
Do Heaven and Hell really exist?
I personally don't believe that there is two places, like a heaven and a hell. I believe that there is a level that we all go to and I liken it to a department store. We all go into the loading bay and we all then we decide what we need to do and how we've worked our lives on this earth plane and then we go up to various different levels that we have to go to. And then there are those who didn't quite step up to the mark on this earth plane and they stay mainly at that loading bay, so very earth bound. Some would say that is the hell. Personally, I think we all just go to the same place
Are all ghosts angry?
I, first of l have to tell you what my belief is with ghosts. My belief on the ghost level is where that energy, as we're all energy, it hasn't actually crossed over to the other side. It's in that little vortex where it doesn't want to leave this world, it doesn't want to go into the next, and that's what I believe a ghost is. If you talk of spirit, as in a spirit that's crossed over, that's spirits never really angry. It may have to have a look over of things in their life, but they're never angry. For me they're not. A ghost, as in stuck in that plane, yes I believe they can be angry. They don't want to let go of this physical world, and they could be angry for many reasons, to find out who murdered them, to help them to protect their loved ones. There are many reason they're angry.
Can pets be spirits?
I always get asked this question many times, whether pets can be in spirit. And there's been many occasions where I've actually said to my client, "You have a dog, hold on," and the dog's jumped up on my lap and the spirit of the animal is around. So, absolutely, pets can be spirits.
Are there different kinds of psychic awareness?
To me, there's different kinds of psychic awareness. We have healers. We all use intuition to work out what that person needs healing. There are tarot readers. And again, yes you can read the cards, but your own intuition comes into this. There's the psychic. There's also the mediums. There's the crystal healers. So there's many facets to having a spiritual gift.
Are there limitations of my psychic awareness?
People ask me if there are limitations to psychic awareness and yes, there are. Let's look like a singer. We all can sing. Whether we can hold the tune or not is a different matter. You get the ones that can sing in the bathtub but won't go on the karaoke stage and they have an ability that they can't quite get in tune. Then you have the karaoke singer, if they train it they can probably be the pop singer. Then you have the pop singer that could train it to be the opera singer. It's all about training and honing in. And so yes, we have a limitation to our ability.
Can I harness my psychic awareness to make things better?
Everyone can develop their psychic ability and their awareness. Whether they can make their life better is a different matter. I get asked that question, “Can I use my ability to make my life better? Well, you can certainly enhance your life and trust your gut instincts and your intuition to therefore make sure you're on the right path. But after all, we all have free will. If you decide to go against your gut instincts, then you'll find your own free will and that's maybe sometimes when mistakes happen.
What can interfere with my psychic awareness?
There are many things in life that can damper our psychic awareness. One can be our emotional state of mind. Other can be a food intake. You know if we eat meat, it can lower our vibrations. We can also have negative people, negative influences that will try and take us off onto a different pathway. Often cell phones and electronics can lower our vibrations also. So there are a lot of factors in life that can really dampen it.
Can someone control my mind with their psychic abilities?
Many people ask me if I can read their mind or if I can control them, if I'm giving them a reading. And the answer is 'No'! We all have free will. It's up to the client decide whether or not they're going to take what I'm saying. So I can't read anyones mind and I can't manipulate them at all.
What is the difference between a psychic and a medium?
It's a very common question that's asked - what's the difference between a physic and a medium. Well, every medium is a psychic but not every psychic is a medium. A psychic can generally work from your energy, from your aura, and tell you what is going to be happening in the future and give you advice, clarification, and guidance. But a medium, we speak to the other side, we speak to those that are no longer with us. And obviously, if that spirit wants us to give you advice on your life, then great. But what you have to remember is if Dad has passed away and he's giving you the lottery numbers and actually Dad never even won anything come the lottery, you really have to really wonder if he's giving you good advice so, you always have to take it with a pinch of salt.
Tips & Comments
Everything you believe, everything you say, everything you think, happens in the level of the brain. If you speak to the dead and they speak back, that happens in your brain. Your god, religion, faith, believes, hopes, wishes… all in your brain. When you brain die, so does everything else. Barbara Brennan could not defend her views in an honest debate or argument, as she has to assert extraordinary claims, without even ordinary evidence. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. When you use “how it makes you feel” as an argument for a truth claim, you forfeit the argument, and dethatch yourself from any intelligent or honest debate. There are 3 real options 1. She is a fraud. 2. She is delusional . 3. She is both. If she can in fact speak to the dead, why are the massagers always wage and generalized? Why are they not specific and always 100% correct? In fact, if she can ask a dead man what his lucky number was, and confirm it to a family member who know the number, you will win 1.000.000 USD$ from the James Randi foundation.

Also a few months ago my nan had passed away I have been finding her passing hard to deal with and about 3 wks after she past away, I was on my own in the bunalow and the lights flickered in the living room also I sensed a presence then thought nothing of it at first so I tried not to take notice of it and turned TV on what did I see my nan's and mine special song by val dolligan playing Dannyboy then lights stopped flckering when the video started playing I just started to cry when it played. Also when I am not well I am seeing orbes on regular basis I used see them before but I see them most nights now since her death I think people can be a bit psychic minded if they let their mind open to sprits then they might be able to experience some comforting experiences but liza williams is been gifted greatly she respects the sprits coming though and never speaks negative about them ever or about being a medium. But I admit I would have loved to see my dog run down the corridor like my friend could of. My mum knew I had the gift at the age of 5 yrs old I would describe this woman on a number of occasions in great detail apprently I frightend her so much we moved back in with my grandparents but also the person showed herself at my grans too but not as much though. we did not know it was then but looking and my nan fr my natural dads side it was my nan I really knew about 3 yrs who it was so it was my nan who was watching all theses years ago I have now double trouble watching now though lol but I don't mind though it gives me comfort thats the main thing but friends who come and watch movies with me say I need to change a light bulb I then walk into he room the bulb's fine and stops flickering I just know its my nan that's around telling me she is there and playing tricks on like she did when she was alive but its her way of trying to cheer me up which it does though I love keeping it to myself though. The trick she used to do to me was flick behind my ear all the time my god she was ruthless flicker behind my ear she would also forget I have a hearing aid in that ear and it flaming hurt but she was a big kid at heart I miss her and loved her for it she better not flicker tonight though or cause the power to cut off it is cold here though but with my nan one never knows what is behind the door! especially my nan being in the sprit world
I had the most interesting experience where I hear this bell from somewhere out of the blue. also one of dogs would bark like mad too I did find what it was untill my m8 who is a medium who told there is a golden scruffy dog with a yellow collar on running down the hallway. She said this dog looks at you with deep affection I said that is my dog kiki who died last year its given great comfort to know this
Talking to the dead is easy. You don't have be a Psychic to do it. Getting the dead to talk back is the most difficult aspect ! LOL !
