Are Channels Trustworthy? How to Trust Your Inner Wisdom

One common questions I hear is: “How do I know if I can trust a channel or medium? How do I know if I can trust you?”

It’s a wise question. Just like doctors, lawyers, or therapists — not every professional is the same. Some bring deep skill, compassion, and integrity. Others may be less experienced, or their approach simply may not resonate with you. The spiritual world is no different.

Intuition: Your Natural Compass

At Source Within, I believe everyone possesses intuitive gifts. You’ve probably experienced them:

  • Thinking of someone right before they call.

  • Dreaming of a person you later run into.

  • Feeling goosebumps when you hear a profound truth.

These are small moments of intuition — the sixth sense that whispers to us daily. With practice, these skills can deepen into clairaudience (clear hearing), clairvoyance (clear seeing), clairsentience (clear feeling), or claircognizance (clear knowing).

Professionals like mediums, psychics, and channels have spent years cultivating these abilities to connect across the veil — with deceased loved ones, angels, ascended masters, guides, and sometimes even beings from other realms.

The Power of Discernment

But just as with any profession, not all practitioners carry the same energy, skill, or intention. Some channels can offer profound healing and clarity. Others may feel off, or leave you questioning more than you began with.

That’s why discernment is key. Notice how you feel in someone’s presence — whether reading their words, hearing their voice, or sitting in a session. Do you feel safe? Do you feel empowered? Do you leave with more connection to your own inner wisdom — or less?

What Trust Really Looks Like

The most trustworthy channel isn’t the one who dazzles you with predictions or makes you dependent on their answers. It’s the one who helps you feel more connected to yourself — your Essence, your Source Within.

Not every channel is meant for every client, and that’s perfectly okay. The beauty of free will is that you get to choose who resonates with you.

In the end, the most reliable compass is your own intuition. Trust the inner voice that tells you when you’ve found the right fit.
