A psychic healer, tells you what it's like to be psychic. Balcombe's visualization and meditation techniques help you gain comfort with-and control of-your psychic powers. She describes how to use divination, the tarot, pendulums, dowsing rods, dreams and symbols, premonitions, automatic writing, and other techniques to develop psychic ability. You also learn how to see a person's aura to determine health or emotional conditions, and how to clear the aura of disturbances. The greatest gift a psychic can cultivate is the ability to heal, and Balcombe discusses this in detail; how to use touch, "laser,"and absent healing, as well as spirit energy group healing, and the value of crystal healing. She relates her belief in past lives as pockets of experience that add to our soul's wisdom and knowledge. Balcombe's book helps us gain spiritual awareness and a clearer understanding of life's purpose.

Most of us have had psychic experiences at one time or another; we may find a new place strangely familiar, finish other people's sentences or sense a definite positive or negative feeling about a house. Almost everyone has some latent psychic ability. The Psychic Handbook provides a fun, entertaining way to develop your psychic power. Craig Hamilton-Parker takes you step-by-step through skills such as mediumship, prophesy, psychometry, dream analysis, dowsing, numerology and clairvoyance. He also shows how you can learn to meditate in order to liberate the intuition that is the basis of all psychic ability, and find out about crystals and how they can have a beneficial effect on your life. Packed with information, experiments and games, including special cards developed by scientists to test your telepathic skills, The Psychic Handbook will show how you can explore an undiscovered part of your personality and unlock your psychic potential.

Once the seer, the priestess and the sage were revered by their community. Their roles were considered sacred - the practising of an art, requiring training and experience like any other art. All these individuals tuned into their 'psycho-spiritual' powers on our behalf. But each of us has always had the ability to draw upon these powers directly, inside ourselves. This book shows us not only how to exploit our psycho-spiritual potential, it also shows us how to navigate the different realms of inner experience that are our birthright. Psycho-spiritual powers can take time and expertise to discern, especially for the novice. How do we know what we are dealing with? Does the 'information' made available to us derive from the subtle energies around the body or does it come from some discarnate being? Or perhaps from an alter ego, the personification of hopes and fears from aspects of our projected selves? This book is drawn from research and first-hand experience from thousands of consultations and teaching sessions over many years. In addition, the author, at the end of each chapter, uses anecdotes to illustrate and enlighten the reader, and these are sometimes humorous, sometimes sad, sometimes philosophical, and always true. Well-implemented psychic and intuitive guidance can help to move the individual towards wholeness - a new dawn based on working with the heart and the energy of unconditional love. This in turn radiates out to affect the whole of our society. Psycho-spiritual powers enlarge our lives beyond measure. 'Julie is preparing those who choose to raise their consciousness and see beyond the immediate.' - The late Eileen Caddy, author and co-founder of the Findhorn Foundation
