The Secret History of Psychics: How to Separate Fact from Fiction - And Tap Into Your Own Psychic Abilities

by Sylvia Browne

Book Overview

HOW DO PSYCHIC ABILITIES WORK . . . AND HOW CAN YOU TELL IF THEY'RE REAL?

Celebrity psychic and #1 New York Times bestselling author Sylvia Browne takes a fascinating look into the history of psychics dating from biblical times as she reveals the truth about spiritual phenomena like witches, talking boards, angels, astral projection, and more. Did you know . . .

- If someone tells you that an object is "haunted," they are probably fooling you. Objects can retain impressions of prior owners, but they don't contain the spirits of those on the Other Side.

- If you get rid of one item in your house, it should be the talking board. Using one is like leaving your front door unlocked, inviting anyone (good or evil) to waltz right in.

- Sylvia didn't believe in "living ghosts" until she had a terrifying experience that changed her mind. The phenomenon called a doppelg nger happened to her more than forty years ago.

- It's possible to tell if a psychic is giving you a good reading or just following a script. A few key phrases can give away a fake.

Through a wealth of personal stories and research into the lives of great psychics, Sylvia offers solid advice on how to put valid procedures to use and ignore the rest. The Secret History of Psychics explains how you can spot a fraud and shows you how to tap into your own legitimate psychic skills

Another great book from Sylvia Browne

I have almost every book that Sylvia or her son Chris has written. I would not trade them for the world. Sylvia has changed my life more than I can say. She gives hope, takes away fears and even makes you laugh. She is the best psychic that I have ever found and I have researched many. I have seen Sylvia in person and she is magical in her gift from God. If you don't like what she has to say, leave it behind and just take what you want. There is no denying that today the veil between earth and our home on the other side is thinning. Many more children are coming into this world with these gifts and others that may have them are learning how to use them for the good of others. As in everything, there are those who take advantage of people who are searching for answers. Sylvia will tell you how to know a true and honest psychic. Trust your heart and instincts and don't let desperation lead you the wrong way.

Good Information!

I have always loved the fact that Sylvia Browne talks about God, not many psychics do that. I have been helped in many ways by all of her books and this book is no exception. I loved the information about Sylvia's roots as a 3rd generation psychic and how we all can hone our own psychic skills and learn to trust our instincts. Good job Sylvia!

* A Good Read!! *

Very good book Sylvia, it's too bad there are others who purposely try to slam your integrity with meritless nonsense. But overall this book is very resourceful with info on what to look out for on readers. Delightfully inspiring and rings true to my soul. Yes unfortunately there are many bad apples from other 'psychics' who gives the good ones a bad name, but the truth within you Shall set you free no matter the obstacles. Good job! :)
