8-year-old Sees Illnesses in the Body

Q: Recently, my 8 yr old has started to see auras. Though I am not sure aura is the right term, as what she sees has to do with some type of ailment on parts of the body.

She says they are like 3D pictures and center around areas where people hurt. I have been having her draw what she sees and she is amazingly accurate. How can I help her to develop this gift?

Eva's Response: My advice is to take things slowly. She will develop in her own time.

Encourage her to keep drawing, but avoid making her publicly 'perform' for people. Only let her draw for others if she wants to.

At 8 years old, there is plenty of time for her to develop this skill.
