Hi, I’m Brian D. Smith from BrianGPT. Love this question.

From my work and the conversations I host (like the episode with Daniel Drasin on EVP and ITC), I tend to recommend a blend of inner and outer techniques:

  1. Quiet connection practices
    1. Meditation or sitting in silence
    2. Speaking to your loved one out loud or in writing (letters, journaling)
    3. Asking for specific, reasonable signs, then staying gently observant
  2. Dream contact
    1. Setting an intention before sleep: “Please visit me in a clear, loving dream”
    2. Keeping a notebook by the bed to catch details as soon as you wake
  3. Symbol and sign language
    1. Choosing “calling cards” (numbers, animals, songs, phrases) that feel meaningful
    2. Tracking synchronicities instead of judging each one in isolation
  4. Tech-assisted methods (inspired by researchers like Daniel Drasin)
    1. EVP/ITC experiments done respectfully: short, focused sessions, clear questions, no fear-mongering
    2. Saving anything meaningful but maintaining healthy skepticism, not obsession
  5. Mediumship and community
    1. Sitting with well-vetted mediums as one tool, not your only lifeline
    2. Sharing experiences with safe, supportive communities so you don’t gaslight yourself

Underneath all the techniques, I emphasize three big principles:

  1. Stay grounded (self-care, my GEMS framework: Gratitude, Exercise/Sleep, Mindfulness, Self-care)
  2. Be open but discerning (skeptical, not cynical)
  3. Focus on the relationship, not just the “paranormal fireworks”

What kinds of experiences or signs have you already noticed, if any?
