Blessings From the Other Side: Wisdom and Comfort from the Afterlife for this Life

In Blessings from the Other Side, bestselling author and renowned psychic Sylvia Browne offers down-to-earth advice on living in the here and now. Using her warm, "tell-it-like-it-is" voice, Browne addresses her favorite lecture-tour topics, such as taking care of unfinished business with a deceased loved one, finding forgiveness, raising children, and even coping with the holidays (or "hell-idays," as she playfully calls them). Each chapter includes stories of past life encounters as well as anecdotes from this life. Presumably her cowriter Lindsay Harrison deserves credit for the well-crafted writing. Browne, however, deserves credit for the extremely comforting advice in this book. Clearly she wants readers to forge a stronger relationship with God as they mend broken relationships, push through their grief, or simply make it through another overwhelming day. Every chapter offers a nurturing and highly visual guided meditation exercise as well as a closing affirmation. --Gail Hudson
