π§ Understanding Biases
Biases are shortcuts our minds take to make sense of the world quickly. While they can be helpful, they also cause us to interpret experiences through a distorted lensβespecially during psychic readings or emotionally charged encounters.
Being aware of your biases helps you think more clearly and question assumptions, particularly in situations where beliefs may be influenced by suggestion or desire for meaning.
π Key Biases in the Psychic Experience
*Confirmation Bias*
We naturally seek out and remember information that supports what we already believe. During readings, we tend to latch onto statements that feel true while ignoring those that donβt resonate.
*The Availability Heuristic*
If a psychic says something that reminds you of a recent experience, it may seem more relevant or trueβeven if it's just a general statement.
*Anchoring Bias*
The first impression or statement a psychic makes can set a tone that influences how you interpret the rest of the session, even if itβs not particularly accurate.
π‘ Did You Know?
Cognitive biases are not flawsβtheyβre survival tools that evolved to help us make decisions quickly. The key is learning when they help and when they cloud our judgment.
π‘οΈ Awareness Is Your Best Tool
Recognizing your own cognitive tendencies allows you to step back, evaluate information with clarity, and make choices rooted in reason rather than assumption. Whether you believe in psychic phenomena or not, understanding bias is empowering.
