What happens when you finally stop ignoring your sensitivity and start trusting your connection with spirit?
In this warm, honest and deeply heartfelt episode of Mediumship Matters, Hannah is joined by psychic medium, Reiki practitioner and healer Lorna Ann Energy to discuss mediumship, intuition, healing circles, Reiki, spirit communication, women’s circles, grounding, self-trust and spiritual development.
Lorna shares her journey from being a deeply sensitive child fascinated by spirituality to developing mediumship professionally and creating healing spaces where people can reconnect with themselves and each other.
Listen to the Episode
Growing Up Sensitive and Spiritually Curious
Lorna explains that she was always fascinated by anything spiritual or “woo woo” from a very young age.
Whether it was making little potions in the garden, searching for witches or feeling deeply aware of other people’s emotions, she always sensed there was something more beyond the physical world.
The episode explores:
childhood spiritual experiences
intuition and sensitivity
feeling energy
spiritual curiosity
emotional awareness
trusting your instincts
Even before understanding mediumship, Lorna instinctively knew there was a deeper energetic layer connecting people together.
Losing Her Grandad and Discovering Mediumship
Although spirituality had always interested her, mediumship became far more personal after the death of her grandad over ten years ago.
For the first time, Lorna experienced profound grief and became determined to understand where her grandad had gone and whether connection with him was still possible.
Soon afterwards, she attended her first spiritual development group and immediately fell in love with mediumship.
As she practised and received validation from complete strangers, she realised:this wasn’t imagination.
This was real spirit communication.
Mediumship Development and Learning to Trust
One of the strongest themes throughout the conversation is trust.
Lorna openly shares how difficult it has sometimes been to trust herself, especially while navigating conflicting opinions, spiritual misinformation and self-doubt.
The episode explores:
mediumship development
self-trust
evidential mediumship
intuitive communication
learning through experience
overcoming fear and doubt
Lorna beautifully describes mediumship as:
“Stepping out of the way and becoming a translator.”
It’s an incredibly relatable discussion for anyone developing spiritually or learning to trust their intuition more deeply.
Reiki, Healing and Energy Work
Alongside mediumship, Lorna also offers Reiki, Angelic Reiki, card readings and sound healing.
Throughout the episode, she reflects on how energy healing helped her reconnect with herself during difficult periods of life.
The conversation explores:
Reiki healing
sound healing
grounding practices
energetic sensitivity
emotional healing
spiritual wellbeing
Lorna explains that much of her work is about helping people feel safe enough to reconnect with themselves again.
Rather than “fixing” people, she focuses on creating supportive and healing spaces.
Women’s Circles and the Power of Community
One of the most moving parts of this conversation centres around the healing circles and women’s spaces Lorna creates.
After attending her own healing circles years earlier, she realised how powerful it felt to simply sit among women without pressure, performance or judgement.
The episode explores:
women supporting women
healing circles
emotional safety
community and connection
vulnerability and healing
spiritual support spaces
Lorna explains beautifully that many people simply want somewhere they can:
put their emotional weight down for a moment
feel seen
feel accepted
reconnect with themselves
It’s a gorgeous reminder of how healing community can truly be.
What Spirit Communication Really Feels Like
Lorna also shares brilliant insight into how mediumship actually feels internally.
Rather than hearing booming voices or experiencing dramatic supernatural moments, she describes spirit communication as subtle, emotional and intuitive.
The strongest communication often arrives as:
quiet knowing
feelings
emotional impressions
subtle images
instinctive awareness
It’s a grounded and refreshing perspective on mediumship that many developing mediums will deeply relate to.
Learning to Simplify Spiritual Practice
One particularly relatable part of the episode comes when Lorna reflects on how complicated she initially made her spiritual preparation.
At one point, her pre-reading rituals involved:
crystals everywhere
candles
cleansing rituals
visualisations
long preparation routines
Over time, however, she realised spirit connection could actually be much simpler.
Now her preparation is often as straightforward as:
grounding herself
taking a few breaths
setting intention
trusting spirit
and beginning
Honestly, it’s a conversation many spiritual people probably need to hear.
