How to Choose the Right Medium: What to Look For Before Booking a Reading.
If you’re thinking about booking a Mediumship reading, it’s normal to feel excited, curious, and a little unsure about where to start. With so many choices, how do you know who is ethical, credible, and truly the right fit for you.
Choosing a medium is a personal decision. My mentor once told me, “There is a medium for everyone, but you may not be the medium for everyone.” You want to choose one that feels aligned with you and your needs.
Here’s what to look for when choosing the right medium.
Trust your Intuition
Notice how you feel when you visit a medium’s website or social media. Do they feel calm, respectful, and genuine? Do their values align with yours? You should feel empowered instead of pressured. A good medium won’t rely on fear, urgency, or emotional manipulation.
Look for Ethical Standards
Ethical mediums set clear boundaries. They won’t make guarantees about specific loved ones coming through. They won’t use fear based messaging (curses, attachments, or “bad energy”). A responsible medium will honor your autonomy and not create dependancy. Notice if they have clear disclaimers that readings are for guidance, not medical or legal advice.
Avoid Fear Based or Sensational Claims
Be cautious if someone claims they are more gifted medium. If they say you are blocked, cursed, or getting energetically attacked — run. It’s a red flag if they are trying to sell you expensive energy clearings or curse removals. Authentic mediumship is grounded and compassionate. It shouldn’t feel dramatic or controlling. Be mindful if they are making guarantees about exact outcomes.
Review Their Testimonials
Look for realistic reviews that describe the impact they are making. You should notice consistency in how clients describe their experiences. Do they have a tone of groundedness or dependency? Look for a pattern of honesty and professionalism over a few reviews that seem hyped up.
Pay Attention to Their Communication Style
The right medium should feel supportive, not judgmental. They should be open to questions before you book. You deserve to feel informed, not confused or pressured. Do they use clear and transparent language to explain things? Use discernment if they are using embellished language.
Choose Someone Who Empowers You
A healthy reading should leave you feeling supported and empowered. You shouldn’t feel anxious or dependent on their readings for guidance or clarity. A good medium with help you reconnect with your own inner guidance.
Watch Out for Red Flags
Consider it a warning sign if a medium tries to scare you or pressure you into additional services. They should not be using shame, guilt, or fear to upsell or create dependence. An ethical medium won’t dismiss your boundaries or concerns.
If you’re exploring mediumship, take your time to find someone who feels aligned. The most impactful readings leave you feeling supported and safe in your healing journey.
