Psychics Nonfiction

Psychics part two, nonfiction, for National Psychics Week.  Enjoy!

American Psychic: A Spiritual Journey From the Heartland to Hollywood, Heaven, and Beyond by Marla Frees - While shooting a TV commercial in Los Angeles, Marla Frees was given a message. The father of the actor sitting across from her wanted the actor to know he was happy about the new baby. But there was a twist--the father was deceased.
The actor was shocked. Marla was God-smacked. Increasingly, messages from deceased loved ones and a powerful psychic awareness demanded her attention. Marla followed her heart, left acting, and never looked back. She now uses her gifts to help families from the heartland to Hollywood find healing. American Psychic tells the spiritual journey of a small-town girl who develops her psychic gifts and relationship with God on a synchronistic path that weaves through the trauma of her childhood, the drama of her acting career, and adventures in healing and transformation.
Along the way, she's explored her abilities with U.S. military "psychic spies," assisted detectives on homicide cases, and delved into the science behind her abilities with physicist Thomas Campbell. Marla has learned to trust the voice of "Spirit," which never fails her. Marla Frees' story of spiritual transformation takes us into realms that will astonish, inspire--and heal.

Clear Home, Clear Heart: Learn to Clear the Energy of People & Places by Jean Haner - Have you ever entered a room and it just didn't feel right, yet you couldn't explain why? Do you sense a natural comfort with some people but are immediately stressed by others? The truth is that we're all influenced far more than we realize by the invisible energy of the people and places around us. This, along with difficult experiences in your past that still weigh you down, can keep you from being a creative force in your life.Clearing is a gentle but powerful way to release the old stress you're still carrying from your life history, as well as transform how you're affected by the energy around you each day. Many people experience immediate shifts in their energy during a clearing, and significant change often unfolds in the days and weeks afterward. In fact, clearing has even been described as "accelerated meditation" because it can lead to a sense of calm and happiness that typically results only after years of a mindfulness practice.In this simple, elegant guide, Jean Haner teaches you, in easy-to-follow steps, how to clear your own energy or that of any person, as well as bring harmony to the energy of the spaces you inhabit, so you can reclaim your vitality and joy, and open up infinite new possibilities in life. Healers, intuitives, energy workers, highly sensitive people, and anyone who just wants to optimize their energy and live their best life will find this to be the perfect training. Jean refines energy clearing to its pure essence--the power of the compassionate heart!

Expect the Unexpected: Bringing Peace, Healing, and Hope From the Other Side by Bill Phillips - Bill Philipps had the kind of childhood that seems too tragic to be true -- drug-addicted parents, parental kidnapping, homelessness. At fourteen, he watched his mother die. Two days later she appeared to him, letting him know she was spiritually alive. From then on, spirits "knocked on his door." He tried to ignore them. He wanted to be "normal." But as he pursued his singing gift at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, his psychic gift pressed for a hearing. As Philipps gave readings as a psychic medium, witnessing the comfort the spirits offered, he came to accept and honor his abilities.

Growing Up Psychic: My Story of Not Just Surviving But Thriving - And How Others Like Me Can Too by Chip Coffey - NO one knows more about psychic kids than Chip Coffey, and no expert on psychic kids is better known throughout the world. These kids are widely misunderstood, misjudged, and misdiagnosed. In Growing Up Psychic, Chip Coffey offers indispensable information for anyone who interacts with these extraordinary youngsters--parents, educators, medical professionals, mental health clinicians, members of the clergy, paranormal investigators--and adults who faced the challenges of growing up psychic.
In Growing Up Psychic, drawing on his firsthand experience and the true stories of kids he has worked with and helped, Chip Coffey shows you how to:
* Determine if a child is really psychic--as opposed to simply imaginative or
seeking attention
* Identify the different kinds of psychic abilities kids (and adults) might have
* Gain control over when and how psychic information is received
* Safely connect with others in the psychic community
* Deal with skeptics and disbelievers

Infinite Quest: Develop Your Psychic Intuition to Take Charge Of Your Life by John Edward - Best-selling author John Edward has captivated audiences worldwide with his unique and powerful psychic skills. Now, in his long-awaited new book, he shows people how they too can tap into their psychic selves.
Infinite Quest will help readers to develop their intuition and renew their own latent powers, so they can confidently take chances and make choices. By following certain guidelines and intuition-building exercises, we can learn to get in touch with our Spirit Guides and identify the psychic energy around us on deeper levels. Edward also discusses how technology can work with our "sixth sense,” and explains how to use divination tools. Like his new eponymous website, Infinite Quest is truly a "portal to all things metaphysical.

Psychic: My Life in Two Worlds by Sylvia Browne - At the age of 73, New York Times best-selling author Sylvia Browne is ready to tell the whole story of her extraordinary life. In Psychic, we meet the woman behind the public figure: from the child receiving her first visits from the spirit world to the teenager doubting her own sanity; from the new mother living through staggering highs and lows to the burgeoning celebrity, and, ultimately, the successful, happily married woman she is today. Filled with never-before-told stories and otherworldly encounters, Psychic is a riveting account of how Sylvia Shoemaker, a traditional girl from Missouri, became world-famous psychic Sylvia Browne.
Nothing is off-limits. Sylvia tells the little-known truths behind her three failed marriages, including physical abuse, bankruptcy, and legal troubles, and the financial and emotional damage they wreaked. She revisits her personal demons and describes her physical challenges, including her relatively recent discovery that she'd suddenly gone blind in one eye. And then there is the greatest surprise of all: Sylvia tells how, once she had reached her 70s, and believed her romantic life was over, the real Mr. Right finally - impossibly - showed up.
While the press has freely, often bitterly, weighed in on Sylvia's most painful stories, she has remained quiet...until now. Unlike any other book Sylvia has written, Psychic reaches deep beneath the surface of her life, including professional and personal experiences that she is sharing publicly for the first time. With candor, warmth, and a great deal of humor, Sylvia Browne has written the singularly captivating tale of a life lived in two worlds, filled equally with harsh earthly realities and mesmerizing spiritual insights.

Psychics, Healers, and Mediums: A Journalist, a Road Trip, and Voices From the Other Side by Jenniffer Weigel - People are fascinated by those who claim to have extraordinary psychic abilities. It is safe to say that many of these folks are either extraordinary frauds or extraordinarily deluded. But could some people actually possess psychic gifts that can be used to help and heal? Weigel became particularly interested in this topic after the death of her father in 2001. Now she provides in-depth interviews with today's top mediums, psychics, and healers, and shares readings they conducted for both her and another individual, and shares the astounding results.

The Reluctant Psychic: A Memoir by Suzan Saxman - We all, as children, saw imaginary friends and heard monsters in the closet. But for Suzan Saxman, those friends and monsters didn't go away--and they weren't imaginary. They were the dead who came to her from the time she was a little girl with urgent messages for the living. Raised in a house filled with secrets, she saw and spoke the truth as soon as she could talk, alarming the nuns in her convent school with her revelations and terrifying her own mother with her strange visions. Each night she woke to see a man with no eyes watching her, and each day she kept watch by the window while her father was at work and Steve, her real father, a swarthy drifter, rendezvoused with her mother. It was the 1960s in suburban Staten Island and she tried to hide it all, and be a daughter her mother could love.
