People are most telepathic with the following types of people:
*Those they are close to physically (live with, family)
*Those who they have an affinity with (friends)
*Those they work with (just because they are around so much)
*Those they love (no explanation needed)

The way I've always felt and defined telepathy is a way of bonding with someone, a way of exchanging information, ideas, and emotions. If you don't like someone or feel irritated by their presence, you're going to have a much harder time tuning into them telepathically. Why would you want to tune into something you did not want to bond with? So if you are trying to tune into your boss to see if you'll get a raise and you just can't stand him/her, you'll need to find a bonding feeling first, or become an expert in telepathic communication.

I actually learned how to be more telepathic and how to control it better. I have a very close friend that for a few years we would go out for coffee and gab about this and that for hours on end. We started playing a game when boredom and caffeine took over, the game was telepathy practice. Most of you have had the experience of a friend completing a sentence for you or knowing what you were going to say, and that's how my relationship was with this person. We would use paper napkins and the waitress's pen to write down things and have the other one try to figure out what it was. We usually worked with the number scale 1-10. After we had an 80-90% accuracy rate, we moved on to colors, symbols, and abstract items.

The technique we used was simple, yet probably the key to our telepathic success.

This was our technique:
*One was the sender, one the receiver.
*We would switch every other turn.
*We would form a scenario or jingle in our heads.
*We tried not to look at each other during the practice.
*Receiver always went with first instinct guess.
*We tried to be as enthusiastic as possible.

For some reason, we switched who was sender and receiver after every try. It seemed to work best for us, yet one person staying sender for 10-20 tries may work better for others. Instead of thinking of the number, the sender would concoct a funny image or song to give more umphf to the telepathic message. We once got stuck on the 12 days of Christmas song and that's how we sent and received numbers, and it worked very well. While actually sending and receiving, we tried not to look at each other so that the sender did not give it away with facial expressions. That is a very important step because if you really know someone, you can read what they are thinking, and then it might throw off your telepathy. Going with the first instinct is generally the right answer. It can be difficult to go with your first answer so we would say "I'm getting a 5, but my first instinct was a 7." That allows the sender/receiver to discuss why the 5 may have been coming through, when the answer was 7. We found that we had our best sets of telepathy when we were the most enthusiastic and in relatively good moods.

Not only was it extremely fun, but we are both still highly telepathic with each other to this day. I can call her, and she amazingly enough doesn't have caller id yet, and not leave a message and she will call me back within a few hours saying "I just felt you calling, so here I am!" Without the telepathy game, it is hard to tell who is the sender and who is the receiver.

Are you sending or receiving? This is usually the most frequently asked question about telepathy. Difficult question requires a difficult answer. If you are not totally aware of how you send and receive telepathically, you will probably be in the dark about "who started the communication." After years of practice, I can usually tell whether or not I'm sending or receiving, or picking up psychic/intuitive information.

You are getting bombarded all day long with telepathic messages and energy. When you are busy and focused on a task, you don't have time to "tune in" to see who's knocking on your telepathic door. When you go to relax, while driving, going to sleep, finally spreading out on the couch, that is when your mind allows the telepathic messages to come through.

Here's the easiest way to tell if you are sending or receiving:
*You are busy at work and no matter what you do your thoughts are focused on the person you love/are interested in. You are sending
*You take a nap on a Saturday and as you drift off you start thinking of your sister, who you haven't thought of all day. You are receiving
*You are focused on getting the laundry done and you stop to ponder the smell of your detergent when thoughts of your love replace colors versus whites. You are receiving
*You are talking to a friend about your mom and you start to internally think that you need to call your mom because it's you're way past due for a "hello" phone call. You are sending

There are always situations in which you won't know who is sending and receiving and that is okay. The important thing is that you know you are consciously aware of your telepathic abilities! Everyone has the capability of learning how to telepathically communicate simply because we do it all day long every day subconsciously. Human telepathy is in the early stages of what could become our most used form of communication in the future. So practice, practice, practice, but mostly, enjoy!

Sanaya Roman has the best information on telepathy I have yet to find. Her book Personal Power Through Awareness has a whole chapter devoted to telepathy and how it works. Please check back as I plan to add Telepathy Stories in the near future.
