the art of receiving: how to get clear and undeniable messages from your spirit guides

[00:00:00] The following podcast is a dear media production.

Hey there. Welcome to Dear Gabby. I'm your host Gabby Bernstein, and if you landed here, it is absolutely no accident. It means that you're ready to feel good and manifest a life beyond your wildest dreams. Let's get started.

You have a team of invisible advisors waiting to give you guidance on your life's biggest questions. This is true, and the only problem is no one ever taught you how to get them on the phone. Until now, welcome back to Dear Gabby, my friends. Today we're gonna talk about how to receive clear, fast, and undeniable messages from your spirit guides.

My goal for this episode is that you walk away with the exact steps to open that line of communication starting today. Now, you might believe that connecting with Spirit guides is a [00:01:00] special gift reserved for a select few that you have to be a psychic or a medium or meditate for hours on a mountaintop to even get a whisper of guidance.

Many people feel like their guides are distant or that they're just not spiritual enough to connect with them, and it can feel like an art form that's incredibly difficult to master. The good news is that belief is just not true. Connecting with your guides isn't a special skill. It's your spiritual birthright.

It's a natural ability you already possess, and the problem isn't your ability, it's your approach. So in this episode, we're going to break down five methods for clearing the channel and tuning into the frequency of your guides. So that you can get the guidance that you need and the guidance that you want to show you how to manifest your dreams and live the life that you really desire.

By the way, if you're new to my channel, I'm Gabby Bernstein, and I've spent decades teaching people how to connect to their spiritual support team, and today I've brought in. [00:02:00] The psychic medium. Marianne DeMarco, she's also one of my besties, and she's out with her latest book, the Guides book, to give you her most powerful tools for connecting to your spiritual support team, your spiritual posse.

Okay, so let's get into it. Marianne, what are spirit guides? I talk about this a lot in the show. I've been very, very forthcoming about the fact that I know that there is a spiritual support team, that there are entities beyond our physical site that are always protecting us and guiding us. But you are the expert.

I wanna hear from you. What are spirit guides and what's their purpose? Spirit guides are our universal team. On the other side, I call them my team of besties because that's exactly what they are comprised of. Loved ones. Yes. Spirit guides also, and angels. However, each one of them have their own role. Our loved ones here supporting us, letting us know we're not alone angels.

Maybe they're creating the miracles in our life, or we're calling upon them for certain jobs that we [00:03:00] need them to do, but our spirit guides, those are the ones that are helping us navigate. Through our life, understand the lessons that we came here to learn. But really the most important thing that they're doing is they are highlighting our higher voice.

They are helping us hear our higher self and everything that we came here to accomplish and do. The first tool is simple and the most effective way to signal to your guides that you are ready to listen. It's what Marianne calls the habitual check-in. It's about making a conscious choice to open the door to communication.

All right, mayor, you're here. I love you. I love you. I love you. Can you explain the habitual check-in and why it is so powerful? First of all, hi. I'm so happy to be here. Look, the habitual check-in is very easy. It's something you can do every single day, like brushing your teeth, making a cup of coffee.

We're literally waking up every single morning and saying hello to our guides. Good morning. We're setting an intention. Maybe we're expressing gratitude. [00:04:00] Maybe we are saying to them, Hey, I am ready to work today. I'm ready to see your signs, your symbols. The trick with habitual check-in is that there is no trick.

It's just something that's part of your routine every single day, and everyone can do that. You just make it part of your daily schedule and you're saying, Hey guides, hello. I'm ready to get to work. So you're literally like, good morning guides. Hi, how are you? Every single morning, I'm like that. Every single morning I'm like, good morning guides.

Well, actually sometimes like I wanna tell them, wait, I need to get my cup of coffee. And then I'm like, good morning guys. What do you have in store for me today? What is it that I can learn? What a sign can I ask for today? What direction can I go in? And I hear their response, and I follow a direction. I love this Marianne.

It's checking in, asking for guidance, and really also letting them know that you're there and that you wanna talk. Right? That's right. Letting them know that you are there and you wanna talk is very easy. These are your besties. You don't have to wait around to start a relationship with them, and it doesn't have to be [00:05:00] formal, like you said on a mountaintop.

Anybody can do this at any time during the day, so why not start with making it just part of your daily routine and making it super informal and casual. That's the way I do it. Now, starting your day with that invitation is crucial. And I know this from my own practice. I've gotta always start that. Thank you guides for hooking me up today.

But if you don't also learn how to recognize their replies, the magic is lost on you. So how do you know when your guides are actually talking back to you? Marianne? You have to remember that spirit comes in your own voice. This is not some disembodied voice that we're hearing from beyond. The voice lies within you.

And within that voice, there is a hint of guidance. There's no hesitation in what you're hearing. It's kind of, I call it like the five second rule to listening to spirit. You've got five seconds to pay attention to your first thought, your inner intuition, and that's really what they're doing. They're trying to get you to create a relationship with them so that you can hear them clearly.

And with discernment, our voice [00:06:00] is going to be full of. Maybe fear or doubt, or being maybe wishy-washy in how we wanna go about things. But when you're listening to your spirit guides, there's clear direction there. There's a step, and you can say to them, what is my first step? And allow yourself to receive that information five seconds.

And just go with that. You've been my media mentor and that five second rule actually was one of the greatest things you ever taught me was just what is the first thing you hear? Don't underestimate it. Don't guess just what is it? What is that first thing you hear? And Marianne, now let me ask you, what are the most common ways people can spot these signs?

There are plenty of ways that we can work with our guides by using signs. We can ask for numbers 2 22, 11, 11, all of those things we can ask for. Feathers, we can ask for Really anything I ask for peacocks, you ask for owls. I mean, we can ask for anything, but if you start to also listen to the information that's happening around you, what kind of guidance is coming through your friends right here on earth, what [00:07:00] kind of information are you hearing from your newsfeed?

Are you seeing a repetitive theme? In information that might be guiding you to your answers. Pay attention to all of that because our guides love to work through this earthly space in order to get through to us. I love this concept of signs because it matters a lot because it's actually training your brain to see the magic in those mundane moments.

And when you start to acknowledge these signs, you're actually telling your guides, I see you, I hear you. And that's what's I think, is such a positive feedback loop that encourages them to start sending you more signs and messages. I love this too, so much Marianne. My son knows that one of my signs is a blue butterfly, which is really my sign for my child who I had to let go of Owen and the sign for Owen is a blue butterfly. Ali doesn't fully understand that yet, but when he got his Crocs, like you can now, you can like organize the Crocs and you can add gems on top of the Crocs. He specifically picked out a blue butterfly for me. I'll put it on his Crocs.

I love that. That's so sweet. [00:08:00] I love it. Okay, so you've opened the door and now you're looking for the sign, but you wanna move beyond the general guidance and get answers to your big questions, and you have to do this next step to get there. You have to get specific with your questions. So Marianne, why is being specific so important when you're talking to your guides?

Being specific is so important when you talk to your guides because we have to remember that they're respecting your free will. We are co-creating with them. This is not just a one man job. This is, Hey, we're a team here. What do you want from us? Is what your guides are saying. The more information that we give them, the bigger the blueprint that we make, and the more specific that we get, the more they have to work with.

So I highly encourage everyone to get very specific with your guides about what you're trying to manifest, what you're trying to accomplish in life, where you see yourself going. Dream big, write it all down, speak it out loud, meditate, sit with it. Allow it [00:09:00] to flow from within you because the answers are there.

You already have the story, so you want to have it come from within you and allow your guides to get to work. With you. When you see the signs and you see the breadcrumbs that they're giving you follow the breadcrumbs. We have to take action, and that's why being very specific helps because they can give us more to work with.

This is so important because it's moving you from the place of passive wishing to active creation. So asking for specific questions focuses your own energy, and it gives you this guidance and it's a clear target, right, to send them that guidance. And it's like the difference between wandering in a forest and following a well lit path.

That's what you've taught me, and I love this and this is so good. But while you're asking these specific questions, you might be wondering how the answers will. Feel and how they're gonna sound. And a lot of people ask me like, how do I know I got my sign? I hear this all the time. I'm sure you get that way more than me.

And so this next point is a game changer because it will show you the unique way that you are built to receive information. [00:10:00] It's to identify your Claire. We all have these intuitive abilities, but we each have a dominant one, and these are known as the Claires. So Marianne, how can someone figure out what their primary Claire is?

Clairvoyant Claire. Ent. Claire what? Claire. Lots of Claires. Get to know your Claires. Get to know all of your Claires. Are you hearing? Are you seeing, are you feeling? The trick is, let's take the word Claire out of it for just a moment. These are your senses. We were all born with them, and you wanna lean into what feels more like a flow.

You wanna lean into one that is comfortable just to start out. So maybe you're having really vivid dreams and your clairvoyancy is at work. Maybe you can hear them very clearly and so you know that your clear audience is working. Can you feel them? Are you getting goosebumps? Are you getting, you know, goofies of confirmation on you?

My favorite Claire is the declare cognizance, the knowing that inner intuition, [00:11:00] psychic knowing that we all have everybody's psychic who's listening. You want to lean into that knowing that the information just feels like it's sitting well within your body. Pay attention to your body. Is it sitting well?

If it sits well, then you are in flow with spirit. If you are meeting with resistance, ask, why is this fear? Is this doubt? What is giving you that resistance? Or is it just the knowing that maybe that decision isn't right for you? Or maybe that's not the guidance that's in most alignment. So sit with your body, be patient, and allow the claris to take over.

They will show you what Claire. We gotta trust our gut. Have to, we gotta trust our gut, the inner gut. You have to trust the gut always. Yeah. And so understanding your dominant, intuitive sense. So it's like discovering that you've been trying to listen to the radio through the TV screen, right? That's right, exactly.

Okay. Mm-hmm. So when you know your strength and whether it's feeling, seeing, or hearing, for me it's actually that clear, cognizant. I feel like a lot of knowing I can sense into it completely. Either [00:12:00] way, no matter what yours is, you can stop looking for the messages in the wrong places because it sounds like you can start paying attention to the channel where your guides are actually giving you that broadcast message.

Is that right? Perfectly said. Yep. That's exactly right. Pay attention to how it feels throughout your body, throughout your mind, throughout your soul. Your answers are right there, and the Claris are great tool to help you validate. What you know to be true.

If you follow me on social media, you know I love a good look. I love fashion. I really do. I love clothes. I love experimenting with different clothes. I think I'm. Very fearless when it comes to fashion. And for me, getting dressed is really, really fun and it's just an easy way for me to express myself and I can be pretty particular with style and what I wear.

And I've always been hesitant to do a clothing subscription because services can be kind of not always what I want, but this is something that I am a fan of personally, and it is like having your personal [00:13:00] stylist.

After I gave birth to my son, I went through this major, major hair shedding, which really sucked you guys.

I mean, my hair was falling out, it was hormonal upheaval, and I was like really, really, really flipped out about it actually. And it was making me not only lose my confidence, but just feel so. Scared, truly. And then I started to take my hair growth super seriously and I got the Iris store Elite helmet and I started wearing this and it's literally started sprouting hair, like sprouting my hair.

Alright. Recently I did the most incredibly game changing thing with my sleep. Literally, game changing people. Game freaking changing. I got the eight Sleep Pod, [00:16:00] okay, you must have heard about this before, but Eight Sleep is the company with the sole mission of improving your sleep and they've just launched their latest pod.

Now, I can tell you that I know I'm getting that quality sleep because I'm checking my stats in the morning and I'm flipping out how my sleep is so much better.

And they have a feature that's this AI driven autopilot and snore detection and even integrates speakers for white noise and guided meditations.

Okay, so this is the final point, and it's the most important one of all because you can learn all of the techniques in the world, but if you don't believe this one fundamental truth, you will always feel like you're disconnected. And this will change everything for you. And this is that your guides want to hear from you.

This is what you write in the book. Your guides want to hear from you, and this is the. Ultimate reframe. This is the biggest block to receiving guidance, is the feeling that you are unworthy, that you are bothering your guides, or that they have better things to do. And Marianne, what is the one thing that you wish everyone knew about their guides?[00:18:00] 

My hope and in writing this book and the takeaway that I hope everybody feels is that they are never alone. That your guides are eager. To co-create with you. They want to see you live your best life. They want to help you through all of your roadblocks. Everything that you're going through. They want to celebrate with you.

You are never alone, and not only are you worthy, you have a divine right to connect with them. You came here with the ability to connect with them, and all they wanna do is wake you up and get you to see. You have a powerful team on the other side who is ready and willing and able to help you navigate your life anytime you want.

You just have to say yes, and I hope people walk away knowing. That, that is their truth. And it's like a relationship. Right? So we have to kind of cultivate this back and forth relationship. The more we ask and the more we pick up the phone and call, the more we're gonna get a response. Is that [00:19:00] right?

Absolutely. Just like any other friend, we have to be in touch. Yes. You know, and some of those guides are the friends that even if you haven't spoken in a while, yep. You can pick up the conversation and they are ready to talk to you and willing like you, like you didn't miss a day. You know, nothing's changed, but we do have to cultivate that relationship because when we're doing that, we're also exercising our psychic and intuitive muscles, and then we are able to hear their guidance with so much more clarity and discernment, exercising our psychic and intuitive muscles.

That is so powerful. Thank you. Because it's really. Confirming, and this is what I love so much about your work, mayor, is that you help us recognize that we all have the capacity for mediumship, that we all have psychic muscles that we can exercise. It's kinda like just playing the piano, right? Like somebody might be really talented and they might just sit down and be able to just riff on the piano and play, and, and it's effortless for them and they learn it so quickly and somebody else might need to practice more.

But everyone can play the piano if they want to. Everyone can play the piano, and I think that that's how your [00:20:00] mentorship has really given me the gift of really accepting that we all have this gift. That's big for me. Thank you. And this matters more than anything else because it dissolves the primary block to connection, which is fear.

And when you truly absorb the fact that you are loved and supported, and that your guides are so eagerly waiting for your call, and they're waiting for you to ask for help. Then the pressure disappears. You can stop trying and you can start allowing, and that single belief that your guides actually want you to call, that you've taught us that our guides want us to pick up the phone and call them.

That single belief shift can open the floodgates to guidance more than any other technique. So Mayor, let's recap these steps for everybody. Okay? So first, remember, we're going to habitually check in with our guides. We're going to say, good morning, we're going to express gratitude, and we're going to start this conversation with them every single day.

That's first. Step two. Remember, let's recognize our signs. Are we asking for numbers? Are we seeing feathers? Are we seeing lovely [00:21:00] owls all around? Are we seeing beautiful butterflies on our Crocs? Pay attention to the signs. Are they working through others? Are they putting things on our news feed? Are they queuing a beautiful song for us to hear, to remind us of their presence?

They are happy to show off with signs. When you see the sign, say thank you, accept it, and move on. Step three. Remember to be very specific with your questions and dream big. Write them out. Write everything that you know to be true within your soul. Your guides want to hear that you're on board with them because they already know what you're capable of doing.

They wanna hear that you're on board, and then you'll have a clear plan with them and they'll know how to take action from there with you. Remember, step four. Identifying your Claire, the primary Claire, move into the whole body. Where do you feel it? Where does it flow? We don't wanna meet it with resistance, if it's backed up by fear or doubt or anything like that.

But we can use discernment if it's not right [00:22:00] for you or it is right for you and you wanna use the Claires, what are you hearing, feeling, tasting, smelling? What is that gut telling you? That inner knowing the inner intuition, your CLA cog, pay attention to that it will never fail you. Step five. I mean, they want to hear from you.

Remember that. They want to hear from you. This. These are your besties. Create and cultivate a relationship with this wonderful team that wants to help you out. They are eager, they are waiting. They are ready when you are, so we might as well get to work with them and start co-creating our best life. So these five steps are so freaking powerful.

Maryanne, I love you so much, and just hearing you break it down makes it so accessible for us. And the five points you just shared are just life-changing tools for people because it's gonna allow our listeners to start to develop that relationship with their guides in a way that they maybe never otherwise thought they could.

Like I said earlier, maybe they thought they could only do it through a medium or through a psychic. And before we wrap up, I wanna just go deeper into the book and for a moment, let's talk a little bit less about the [00:23:00] how and more about the why. Your connection to this work is just extraordinarily authentic and palpable.

And I'd love for my listeners to get to know the heart behind this incredible book, the Why. And the specific moment or message from your own guides that led you to write this book? The why is probably the most important part of, for me, any part of my work is why do I wanna put this out? And I really just feel called to share it.

I feel called to tell people. You don't have to be a psychic medium. You don't have to go to a psychic medium in order to receive guidance for yourself in order to make connections with your own loved ones. There are all the tools lie within you. And I started to think about this book, gosh, probably about four years ago when I was being called to sell my house, make big moves.

We discussed it a lot. Mm-hmm. And it really put me into a place of fear. I wanted to address [00:24:00] that fear, and through conversations with my guides, I was realizing that a book was developing as I was walking through all of the feelings that I was having. And not only that, they made me reflect. Into parts of my life when I wasn't even a practicing psychic medium, showing me how long they have been with me, how often they helped me, without me even realizing that that was the case.

I certainly could rec recognize it now upon reflection, but in the moment. I didn't know that they were sort of helping me get out of situations or understand a situation or protecting me in some way. And so it developed through that. It developed through me really wanting to understand what wasn't serving me well.

Yeah, on a deeper level and going to them to get to work with it. Now, as a medium, do you find that it's hard? To hear your own guidance that you're receiving. Yes. It's easy for you to hear. I mean, I wish I can [00:25:00] just channel up anything, but really what would be the point? I wouldn't be able to then understand my soul's path and what it came here to do.

Mm-hmm. So the point of, you know, I can do it for others and even that is I'm still channeling in the moment your free will is still at play. Yeah. And I realized that if I. Did this in a way that was deepening a relationship with not only my guides, but with myself. It was taking me to spaces of release and accountability, and there was no bypassing around anything using my spirituality that it is a tool, Hmm, to get to work.

And I think it's been probably the last four or five years have been the most productive years of my whole entire life. That's such a great answer because your guides are not gonna deprive you of the miracle of your own recovery, right? It's like they're not going to give you all the answers so that you don't have to live life and figure it out.

Your guides are guiding you [00:26:00] to elevate your consciousness. But also to live through the obstacles so that you can have that spiritual resilience and come out the other side. I really appreciate the way you said that. So beautiful. Thanks. It's true. It's true. It's so much more worth it. Yeah. To sit with them.

And say, oh, okay, I understand these choices I've made, or I understand how I can react better, or I can understand how to celebrate and laugh more. Yeah, maybe I'm overthinking things and I'm taking things too seriously. So they've really brought me to many different areas of self, and to me it's liberating.

I mean, you know, we've talked a lot 'cause you know, we're still close. Mm-hmm. You know, all my life. But these past few years have put me into a huge moment of retrospect. And I don't know if it's the menopause or whatever, but it's just the moment. And I took it and I said, all right, let's get to work. And then how can, of course, what I learn, I teach. Yes, but I learn. I give over.

And so that's why I have this book. Now form it all, any woman going through menopause, you have to get the guides book, my God. 'cause you [00:27:00] cannot do this alone, ladies. You can't. And you have your guides, this guides to help you navigate this sweaty mess that is menopause.

But you gain all this knowledge, trust me, you'll enjoy it. You can gain the weight, then gain the knowledge. It's all right. And then lose the weight. That's right. Oh my God, it's insane. I love you so deeply, Marianne. I love you. I love you. I love you. Everybody. Please go out and buy your copy of the Guides book.

You will not regret this. I'm gonna put the link in my show notes. Marianne DeMarco, you are one of my dearest friends. You are my soul sister. And the other last question I have for you is just beyond the day-to-day guidance. What is one of the most profound or surprising things that your guides have ever taught you about the nature of life or purpose, or what happens when we leave this world?

First of all, I love you so much, and thank you for everything that you do. You're one of my, just. Gabby's a girl's girl. Everybody, whether you know her or not, she is. And she's just brilliant at helping people feel their best. [00:28:00] What I think the most important thing that I have taken away from this moment up to this moment in my life is that there is something pretty miraculous going on on the other side.

Yeah, and that is all wonderful and we can go down rabbit holes about what that is, but that our space here is equally as important. And if we get to work while we're here in, in this realm, that we can open up so many areas of our life that we only thought we can dream about. Hmm. And they have shown me this unveiling many, many, many times.

And even if it's just that you understood. A part of your soul's path that you never thought you were going to get to. I think that in itself is a miracle girl. Yep. And they're willing to give us those winks and little pushes in the right direction anytime we want. It has brought me to the most incredible spaces of comfort, [00:29:00] even in my most darkest hours, and I have had several Yeah.

Before we close, I wanna give you a chance to really connect to your guides today. So I'm giving you a meditation that's inside my Gabby coaching app. It's one of my favorites, and it's a meditation for connecting to your spirit guides. This meditation's gonna help you feel that connection and feel that divine [00:33:00] guidance and start to open your heart to the wisdom and connection that's available to you right now.

Welcome to your Spirit Guides meditation. This is a beautiful practice that will help you create a deep connection to the guidance system that is always within you and around you. The entities of love and light that are here to support you. Always, you'll practice this meditation seated on a chair so you can have great alignment.

The more aligned you are. The more you can receive, your spirit guides are always here for you. They often may not feel like they're present because you may not be aware of their presence. You may not be inviting their presence in. So through this meditation, you can begin opening up your awareness to this guidance by offering up the desire to have their presence be known.

Find a [00:34:00] quiet, comfortable place seated in a chair. With your legs planted firmly, your feet on the ground, place your palms facing upward, roll your shoulders back, tuck your chin in so you're in straight alignment. The more aligned you are, the more you can receive. Close your eyes. Focus your attention inward.

Take a deep breath in, breathe out.

Breathe in, breathe out.

Set the intention now to contact your spirit guides.

Thank your guides for connecting with you[00:35:00] 
inwardly. You call on them. With appreciation and gratitude,
breathe in. Breathe out.

Breathe in, breathe out.

Begin to open up your awareness to their presence.

You may see them in your mind's eye. You may feel their presence around you like a warm blanket or like a loved one holding your hand.

You may hear them audibly communicating to you,[00:36:00]  or you may just have an inner knowing that there's a presence right by your side.

Breathe in and feel their presence. And on the exhale, extend gratitude and appreciation.

Breathe in feeling their presence. Exhale. Gratitude and appreciation if you desire. You can ask them to reveal their name to you now.

Thank you guide for revealing your name.

Breathing in. Listening, breathe out.[00:37:00] 

Now without speaking, ask your guides if they have a message for you.

Breathing in, breathe out.

Attuning your energy to a still space, a still peace, allowing yourself to receive. Their spiritual communication.

Just be still and listen[00:38:00]  for. Breathe in. Breathe out.

Breathe in.

Breathe out now. Sit in stillness for a few minutes, allowing yourself to receive beautiful direction from your guides. Let them reveal to you whatever message you need to know.[00:39:00] [00:40:00] [00:41:00] [00:42:00] 

Now that you've received the guidance and wisdom that you needed to know, say thank you. Thank you guides for supporting me. Thank you for revealing to me all that I need to know.
