Now here's a highlight from Coast to Coast AM on iHeartRadio.
And welcome back to Coast to Coast George Norrie, back with you with John Russell. John became aware of his psychic abilities around the age of six years old, started giving psychic readings to his friends and family at about fifteen, and by the age of eighteen, he was reading professionally. He eventually became internationally known as more than forty five years of expertise as a professional psychic with a worldwide clientele and as a paranormal investigator, has witnessed more than
eight hundred supernatural manifestations. His latest book, he's working on another one. We'll tell you about that later, but the latest one is Twenty Ways to Increase your Psychic Abilities. Mister Russell. Welcome back, George.
It's so great to be here. Good morning. How are you great?
How about yourself?
You know I'm doing good. I've had some health setbacks along as we all seem to be having, but still trucking, doing good. To finish this third book finally, and about halfway through the fourth one, so staying busy.
And we'll talk about that fourth one at the end of the program with you, Twenty ways to increase your psycho abilities? How did you come up with twenty ways?
Well, you know, I thought the book needs to be long enough to be meaningful, to have some serious content, but short enough that it wasn't too boring, and that I could cover a range of techniques that my clients have asked me about over the years. People have always asked me when I've done readings from my clients, are like, how can I increase the psychic ability that I have
to whatever degree that I can? And over the years, during the readings, I would give them some quick instructions, some quick bits and pieces of things that the other side had taught me over the years that I knew worked if you would put them into practice and really apply them. And I thought, yeah, no, I need to take this and put it into form where you know, people can everybody can have it, not just my clients,
but everybody can have it. And also that the clients could have the full version of it, because during the reading, you know, times at a premium and you have to give them kind of the shorthand version of it. So with twenty Ways to Increase your Psychic abilities, there's techniques in there to learn psychometry, dream interpretation, scrying, began to learn the tarot cards, and on and on and on twenty different techniques altogether.
John tell us about this epiphany basically you had when you were on six years old. What happened?
Oh, when I was six years old and began to develop my psychic abilities. What caused that was I was sound asleep one night in my bed and woke up in the middle of the night, just absolutely wide awake, no grogginess, no drowsiness, and I couldn't figure that out. I was like, well, what in the world is this?
And my parents had left a nightlight on down the hall so I could see to get up in the middle of the I go to the bathroom whatever, And so I raised up on my elbows in bed, looking around just kind of like, well, why am I suddenly
so wide away? And as I looked out my open bedroom door, looked down the hallway and the night lights though, I could see this elderly black gentleman peering around the hall doorway staring at me in the bed, and I screamed bloody murder because we didn't have anyone like that
living with us. My assumption as a six year old, almost six year old child, was that an intruder had entered the home, someone had broken in, And when I screamed, he walked around the doorway into the hallway, and he was every bit as solid as you or I. I can tell you the clothes he had on, and I knew he was elderly because he had close cropped white hair and a white mustache. And he began walking towards me, and I screamed bloody murder again, and as my parents
began to come running, he began to vanish. Oh after that, I couldn't verbalize it or even think it through in a rational way, being about five and a half years old. But after that, for about a few weeks later, it began to dawn on me that he hadn't come to scare me to death. He had come to open up a portal to these paranormal manifestations that I've begun to experience.
Who or what do you think he was.
I think he was just one of my guides. I think he was a kind of a gatekeeper, kind of a guide, maybe even a guardian angel that was tasked with coming and awakening this gift in me, opening up this portal to these experiences and allowing me to have this strong interaction with the other side, and eventually my psychic gift began to develop out of all of that, and it's something that's been a great blessing to me and a great blessing to a number of people over the years.
Did your parents think you were having a nightmare?
They did? They know that I had just seen something on TV that I carried to bed with me and when I fell asleep at a nightmare as a result or whatever, And I told them, no, there was someone in the house. There was someone physically in the house. And after that experience, when the when the paranormal manifestations began to occur, they occurred on the physical realm, and my parents witnessed them as well, so they were like, Okay, something happened here, something's up.
We all have paranormal and psychic abilities, don't we.
We all do to a degree, and you can develop yours as far as you can go, and then there's a plateau for everyone. And this is one of the reasons I write the book, is like, Okay, I'm going to take you by the hand. I'm going to lead you step by step, tell you exactly what to do, and I'm going to help you develop those abilities as far as you're capable.
Is there a chronology, John of these twenty where one is better than the other?
Oh, absolutely not. They're all good. Some are maybe a little easier to learn for some people than others. I start off the book chapter one is psychometry, and for me,
that's always been the easiest technique to teach someone. I can usually sit down with someone and following the guidelines that I write about in my book, using that exact same technique, I can sit and teach someone within a matter of five or ten minutes usually to do psychometry successfully and get good results, accurate results.
Five minutes, that's it.
Yeah, five or ten minutes. I had one time with my wife. I had an object that I'd had for ages before we had gotten married, and I explained to her basically the same thing as what I write in the book. And I said, here, take this and do what I've told you, and I'm going to write down what you tell me and then I'll give you the feedback.
And so she did. She had never done psychometry and that way before, and like I said, I explained it to her in about five or ten minutes cover the object told her what to do, and she gave me the feedback on what she was receiving as far as feelings, imagery, thoughts, whatever, And she was about eighty five ninety percent accurate and what she had received. So it's an easy technique to learn.
What makes one person better than the next psychically?
Oh gosh, you know, that's like asking why is one pianist better than another? Why is one musician better than another? I think it has to do with an innate level of ability, the gift that we're given. And you know, some people are given the gift to run marathons. Some people are given the gift to play classical music at a level that's world you know, worldwide famous, and so on and so forth, and then others of us we
have our other niches. So I think it's just based upon what you're given the some people that naturally have a greater ability than others.
Goes through some of these techniques, John, I'm sorry, Sigin Buzz through some of these techniques you put in your book.
Ah, it's great. We have psychometry, we have dream interpretation. One of my favorites scrying which is like crystal ball gazing, and there's a lot of other variations of that that I include in the book. The basics of how to learn and read the tarot cards, how to conduct an old school seance, how to connect with your guardian, angels, exorcisms, receiving guidance, ambulets and talismans, including how to make your own or how to find your own, an entire chapter
on effective candle magic. How to attract the perfect mate. That's one of the big things that I've dealt with in my readings over the years, and I give the exact technique that I give to clients and my readings to help and find the perfect mate. How to make offerings to spirits, cloud busting, how to record electronic voice phenomenon, generating psyche energy, healing, oijiboards, Oh Boy, to users, stay away from to You, to You, Salt is a magical implement.
How to receive signs when you need a sign about man, I'm confused, I'm conflicted, which way do I go? What do I do? I tell you how to receive a sign that will tell you how to proceed developing individual mediumship. And then the very last thing in the book is the preview of my new book Excellent.
Now, if somebody manifests ten of these, not the twenty, but ten, what kind of abilities will they have?
If they even manifest one of these things, it's going to increase their psychic abilities greatly. It's going to give them a tool of technique. For example, if you get really proficient at psychometry, and then I'll show you for other real world applications of that and how to extend that to a how to in that technique. If you just mastered that, if you just worked on that till you got really proficient at it, your life is going
to change in a positive way. But if you were to take two, three, four, even five of the things in this book, it's going to be life changing in a very positive way. It really will. Each one of these chapters, each one of these techniques, I demystify it.
That was my real purpose in writing this book was to say, Okay, look, these things exist, they are real, they're practical, they work, But people that have surrounded them with so much gobbledygook over the years that it makes it difficult or hard for most people to want to learn or practice. You know, you got to cut a branch from a willow tree on the third full moon of the year at midnight while you wear purple and blah blah blah, And it's like, none of that gobbledygook
is in the book. You don't have to have special implements, you don't have to buy expensive things, you don't have to wait for a certain time of the month or year or day or anything else. It's just cut and dried and simple techniques. And you don't have to have any special ability to do these things. These are things that you can learn without. You know, a lot of people say, well, I'm just not psychic or I'm just not gifted. Well you are, but you've never been taught
the correct way to develop it. And usually people run into the road blocks of complexities and complications when they're trying to learn something. And that's why I made all of these chapters simple, easy, and then, like anything else, you're going to get out of it what you put into it. You have to practice.
Why did you bring the weed shoe board into this thing, John.
You know so much surrounds the wigi board that there's so much myth and there's so much false information and misinformation about the wigi board. You know, it becomes the big bugaboo. And yet people that would never touch a wigi board have no hesitation at all about picking up a tarot card deck or using a pendulum or dowsing rods, or gazing into a crystal ball, or using pyramids or whatever else.
That's what you just said is absolutely true. And I'm probably one of the examples for that.
Yeah. Yeah, And so you know, it's the same energy that we're utilizing, whether we're using a crystal ball or a pendulum, or dowsing rods or the wigi board, it's all the same energy, it's all the same manifestation. We're doing the same thing. And in this chapter on the wigi board, I was I was really delighted to write
this chapter. And in this chapter I explained to people, Look, the idea of the talking board or something very similar has been around for hundreds, if not thousands of years, and I explain to people a little bit about the you know, the myths behind it, the misinformation behind it, and then how to successfully and safely use it. You know, you're not going to open up a portal to hell with the wigi board anymore than you are with a decatary cards or a pendulum or a crystal ball or
anything else. It's all the same tool, technique, all the same energy.
Is it the operator of the board that creates the issue?
I think that it is because people get a mindset going into it that it's dangerous, or that something dangerous is going to happen, or that they're going to manifest something evil. And these are the kind of people that believe that what they see in horror movies is real and that it disturbs their psyche and they kind of carry that around with them. And in my book I explain not only with the wig board, but with every other technique. If something makes you uncomfortable, don't do it.
You know, you're in control of your life. You're in charge of your life. And if you like everything in here, including wegi boards, but the tarot cards scare you, does get the tap your own tarot cards? You know it's that simple.
Now you mentioned dream and dream interpretations. How does that figure into the equation?
You know, dreams everybody one of my followers told me they just couldn't wait for the book for that chapter alone to figure out how accurately interpreted dreams everybody dreams, and according to researchers, even people that say that they don't dream, they do, they just don't remember them. And our dreams can contain a wealth of information. And I wanted to include several things about dreaming and about guiding dreaming, and about dream interpretation and developing lucid dreaming if you
so desire. There's instructions as to how to go about all of that. And one of the things that stuck with me over the years and made me want to do this chapter on dream interpretation and on receiving guidance in our dreams is I knew a fellow one time, a friend of mine that worked for the NSA, the National Security Agency, and he was a codebreaker in the NSA, and he told me, he said, Johnny said, I have this experience. And so we had this code that we
absolutely couldn't break. We were throwing everything that we had at it and just couldn't do anything, couldn't break it, couldn't make any sense out of it. And he said, I worked on this thing till I was sur frazzled. I couldn't see straight. And he said, I went home one night and I was so tired I didn't take off my suit or tie. I didn't even loosen my tie. I didn't even take off my shoes. I just fell over backward in my bed, fully closed, and just instantly
fell asleep out of exhaustion. And he said, I had a lucid dream. And in this dream there was like a ticker tape like you see on Wall Street. And he said, here come the characters in that code on this ticker tape. And he thought, he thought to himself in the dream, he said, my god, this thing's invading my dreams. I can't even escape it. I can't even get any rest or any peace. Is gonna drive me insane.
And he said, then the second ticker tape appeared right below it, and then the second ticker tape where the letters in clear in English the translation in other words, of what the code actually said. And he said, I woke up and grabbed a pencil and paper and wrote everything down and rushed back into the office. And sure enough, that broke the code. So we can receive valuable guidance and information in our dreams. And I teach you how to do that, and I teach you how to interpret.
Your dreams using some of these techniques. When can you expect to see results how long, very.
Very quickly, Like with psychometry, like I say, you can sit down and learn to do that in five to ten minutes time. A dream interpretation. If you begin to work with that on a nightly basis, you should see results within a week that begin to make sense to you. All of these things are pretty simple and easy to learn,
and you can see results pretty quickly. Go into it with an open mind, go into it with respect, go into it with a light heart, and say, you know, this is something other people can do this, I can do this, I can learn this, And like I say, I've stripped it down to the basics. There's no rigmarole, there's no gobbly goook. You don't have to have expensive special device ices or anything. Just willingness to try it
and willingness to learn. And like for example, the chapter of psychometry, I tell you how to set the stage for that, as I do for most of these things. What kind of an atmosphere you need to create, and what kind of a person you need to practice with If it's a two person thing like psychometry, and so on and so forth, So it becomes a thing where you can get results very very quickly, which is very satisfying.
And then, like anything else, the more you practice it, the more you delve into it, the better you're going to get.
Are any of these techniques dangerous John in the wrong hands.
No, because I think that the other side, and I've told my clients is over the years, many many times, I think the other side puts kind of firewalls, if you will, or fail safes in place that keep us from going off the rails and deliberately trying to harm people, or this and the other. And then I've got tools and techniques in there, like the ambulets and talismans. There's
other techniques I'll teach you that. If you think there's something negative around you, or if you think there's negativity being directed toward you, I tell you how to neutralize that, how to build a protective environment around yourself, and how to use protective devices like amulets and talismans to protect yourself.
