Psychometry Practice at Nissa Retreats
There’s a moment that happens in each of our lives, often quiet, subtle, and easily overlooked, when something inside us speaks. A flash of a color, a memory stirred by a scent, a sudden knowing about a place or a person we’ve never met. That inner signal is part of something every human carries: intuition. It’s not mysterious or elusive. It’s familiar. And yes, it lives within you.
One of the ways I explore intuition with guests at Nissa Retreats is through a practice called psychometry, a simple, elegant way to turn inward and listen.
Imagine you’re sitting across from a partner. On the table between you is an object, maybe a watch, a ring, a bracelet, a scarf, or even a set of keys. At first glance, it’s just an object. But each object carries a story, a rhythm, an energy shaped by the life it has touched. What we do is start listening, without judgment, without the need to be right.
What you might notice first is sensory: a color, a temperature, a place that comes to mind. Sometimes it’s a song that plays in your mind, a landscape, a fleeting emotion, or an unexpected memory. For some people, it’s visual. For others, it’s a feeling or a sound. There’s no one “correct” way intuition works, and that’s the point. Your experience is your experience.
Here’s the key: you’re not trying to guess the story of the object or impress anyone with accuracy. You’re learning to differentiate between your inner voice and your inner critic. You’re learning to notice when something arises in you that feels alive and resonant, and when your mind shifts into speculation or doubt. This practice strengthens your natural signal, that intuitive voice we’re all born with, and gives you a kind of confidence that isn’t dependent on being right, but on being open.
At our Nissa Retreats, I guide guests through this gently. We share what came up for each of us, if we choose, not to confirm who was “correct” but to honor how the intuition expresses itself uniquely. What matters is the courage to notice, to feel, to share, and in doing so, to begin understanding what your inner wisdom is telling you.
From a psychic’s perspective, this is about attunement. Just like learning to hear a quiet instrument in a room full of sound, intuition becomes clearer with practice. Psychometry simply gives us a focus, a tactile anchor, that brings our attention inward and teaches us how to listen.
And here’s what’s most beautiful: everyone has this ability. It’s not reserved for a rare few. It’s not something you either have or you don’t. Intuition shows up in your daily life already, in the small nudges that tell you when to speak up, when to rest, when to trust. Psychometry just makes the invisible visible, so you can start recognizing your own voice.
