Your Sixth Sense: Activating Your Psychic Potential

by Belleruth Naparstek

Book Overview

You know the feeling -- deja vu, already knowing what someone will say before they speak, a gut instinct that overrides logic, hearing from a distant friend you'd only just thought of that day. It happens to everyone, but few of us acknowledge these occurrences as manifestations of our own psychic ability.

Intelligent thoughtful writing

At the advice of a friend I bought this book. I found it to be not only informative and thought provoking, but educational as well. Having a well honed "BS monitor", normally I would have read the first chapter or so of a 'self-help' book and put it aside. This book however caught and held my attention with Ms. Naparstek's fine writing style. She keeps it interesting and makes one want to turn to the next page. I would recommend anyone seeking the development of thier natural gifts to purchase this book. The work not only educates the seeker, but the exercises also bring more than simply a sharpened 6th sense. They bring with them a sense of well being within. Fantastic work. I cannot recommend this book enough.

Wow!

Ms. Naparstek's new book is amazing. She shows us a whole new way to view the solid, material world that is incredibly liberating and intellectually interesting as well. (And she doesn't sound like she's writing a technical manual either, even when she's getting reeeeally technical, which isn't often anyway.) Her theories on intuition and "psychic" phenomena are incredibly un-"new-agey" and backed up with her own experience and a full set of credentials. Best of all, once she's finishing explaining it, she shows you how to enhance your own psychic awareness in simple ways you probably never thought about. No matter how skeptical you are (I am!), this book is definitely worth your time.

I wish I had more stars

Each week on a spiritual live radio show, I review a book that will assist you as you open your senses and thoughts to universal energy. So I get to read for my job! How blessed.I look for practical and understandable books that will explain in detail for the beginner, and continue knowledge and share new techniques of learning for the old hand. YOUR SIXTH SENSE is probably one of the BEST books I could recommend to someone that believes they "may" have enhanced intuitive skills. Belleruth interviewed 40 ethical, practicing psychics and healers. She shares the common denominators that she found within this select group. Such as a high percentage of the sensitives were only children. A high ratio had suffered through either abuse of some form or extreme trauma before they noticed that they were receiving psychic information. The book goes on to speak on how you can continue to engage in meditation, how to trust your intuition, she describes some of the terms you may hear as you venture into learning more about the use of psi, and my favorite part, she gives some terrific guidelines on spiritual and psychic ethics. Being psychic carries a huge responsibilty. I mean what do you do when you are chatting with someone, and all of a sudden you feel, hear, or see information (be it good or bad) on the person with whom you are chatting? Is it an intrusion to give information when it has not been asked for?Read the book and see what Belleruth has to say.I loved it.

Excellent book written by a Wise woman!

The first half of this interesting and insightful book explores the questions of who,what,why & how psychic talent is developed based on interviews with 43 reputable intuitives and healers. The second half has practical, down-to-earth meditations for developing your intuition. She even explains sophisticated & complex theories such as Bebtov's Pendulum and David Bohm's theory on universal energy so that a layman can understand! I've read hundreds of books on the subject and this is one of the best. She is a gifted teacher and I thank her for this book.

The user friendly guide to enlarging your psychic skills

As a practicing psychotherapist, organizational development consultant and faculty member of the famed Gestalt Institute of Cleveland, I'll always be a lifelong student of human behavior and our collective possibilities. I've recommended B.Naparstek's guided imagery tapes to clients for the last five years. Always with great success. Her previous book, "Staying well with guided imagery" was a great addition to the well thumbed books I'll referr to for life. Her latest book, "Your sixth sense", is the tour de force that no, not even anyone baby psychic skills could have predicted. The reasons "Your sense sixth" is such a major contribution to all the social sciences is because of its profound grasp of complex human phenomena that is simply explained. Naparstek allows anyone who reads this work TO OWN their psychic ability through "ah ha", I've been there re-experiencing AS THEY READ her work and she gives wonderfully clear suggestions about HOW anyone can enlarge their psychic knowing. For years, practitioners have been referencing the phenomena of energy and human energy field, Naparstek easily guides us through complex reviews to help literally wrap our minds around the physics of what energy is about and how we can have more of it. Frankly, I hope this text becomes the forever classic it so richly deserves to be. "Your sixth sense" is the most grounded approach to what has typically been the stuff delegated to metaphysics and practitioners of esoteric wisdom. Here finally, we can all get on the same wave of ancient thinking, honed with cutting edge insights and delivered in a manner that empowers any reader to enlarge their vocabulary of action for the complexities of everyday life. "Your sixth sense" is not only a guide to heightening the power of your psychic abilities, it's also acts as a guide how to live more fully, more vibrantly with clearer channels open to get from others what we need for life. Practices outlined by Naparstek may be helpful in staying well, enriching our relational posssibilities with others and "sparking-up" one's own charisma! I just love this book and am recommending it to all my clients, friends and colleagues. It's wise to share such a treasure with the rest of the world. Thanks for reading this. You'll really thank yourself when you actually get this. Oh, if you're just toooo busy for the book. Get the audio version of the "Sixth sense". She does a guided imagery piece that takes you to realms typically activated in true rem states. What's even better is that she takes your there with her own voice. Hollywood actors themselves couldn't improve on her. She and her work are the real thing.
