In this remarkable six-cd audio program, internationally acclaimed psychic medium John Edward brings you a wealth of information that will help you develop your own psychic powers.
Contents:
CD 1: How to Meditate John teaches you how to successfully meditate so you can relax your body, open your mind to the intuitive side, and visualize what you want in life.
CD 2: Psychic Self-Defense - Protecting Your Aura John points out that we protect ourselves in the physical world all the time (locking our doors, wearing a seat belt, taking vitamins, etc.), but since there is more to us than our physical body, we need to protect ourselves from negative energy as well.
CD 3: Angels and Guides First, John discusses the difference between angels and guides. An angel, he says, is an energy that has never had a physical incarnation, but who can assist, protect, nurture, and inspire the human condition.
CD 4: Understanding Your Psychic Potential John helps you understand your own psychic abilities. He insists that everyone has psychic gifts, but most of the time they have been locked away in the recesses of the mind and need to be developed and recognized.
CD 5: Psychic Tools in the Workplace John explains that it's natural to want to apply your newfound psychic abilities to the workplace by doing readings, but he emphasizes that there is a lot of responsibility involved.
CD 6: How to Conduct a Psychic Session John discusses his basic theories and philosophy about conducting a psychic session.
About the Author John Edward
John Edward is an American author and television personality. He is best known for his TV shows Crossing Over with John Edward and John Edward Cross Country, which are premised on Edward performing as a psychic medium who attempts to communicate with the spirits of the audience members' deceased relatives. Born in Glen Cove, New York, Edward says he was convinced at a young age that he could become a psychic. After writing his first book on the subject in 1998, Edward became a well-known and controversial figure in the United States through his shows broadcast on the SciFi channel beginning in July 2000 and Women's Entertainment Television (WE) since May 2006. The only son of an Irish-American policeman and an Italian-American working mother, Edward was raised Roman Catholic. Although Edward later stopped practicing that faith, he has said he never stopped feeling connected to God and is still closely connected to his Catholic roots. Edward once said, "This is something that is driven by a belief in God. It's the energy from that force that I think allows us to create this energy."
According to John Edward, when he was 15 and "a huge doubter" (in psychic abilities), he was "read" by a New Jersey woman who convinced him that he could become a medium. "She told me things that there is no way she could have known. And the first part of the reading was that this was the path that I was supposed to be on and that I was supposed to be a teacher and help people and — I thought she was nuts." Speaking of the same encounter in a 2002 interview, John Edward said, "She told me I would one day become internationally known for my psychic abilities through lectures, books, radio and TV. I thought she was full of it until she started to tell me things no one in my life knew about... The details were unbelievable."
Later, John Edward worked as a phlebotomist while pursuing a degree in health care administration at Long Island University. He met his wife, Sandra Coelho, when he was a student in a dance studio, and he became a ballroom dancing instructor before entering his current field of work. He and his wife had their first child, Justin Michael, on September 25, 2002, and their second child, Olivia Gabriella, on January 25, 2007. Edward published his first book, One Last Time, in 1998. His related appearance on Larry King Live later in the year prompted enough phone calls to overload the show's switchboard. The next year, Edward had a show of his own. From 1999 to 2004, John Edward was the producer and host of the show Crossing Over with John Edward, which has been syndicated and was broadcast on the Sci-Fi Channel in the United States and on LIVINGtv in the UK. In Crossing Over, Edward performs what mediums call "readings".
Readings in Crossing Over involve Edward questioning audience members with what is presented as information being communicated by their deceased friends and relatives. Edward says he receives images and clues from "the other side" which the audience must assist him in interpreting. Aside from questionnaires filled out prior to taping, the audience is not supposed to supply Edward with any prior information about themselves, their family or whom they are trying to connect with "on the other side". Audience members respond to Edward's statements and questions, adding any details they feel are appropriate. The show often employs a split screen, the view of a reading without sound on one half of the screen while on the other half the subjects of the reading are shown in a later interview as they discuss their experiences. A voiceover by John Edward is also implemented at times, sharing further insights and inspirational messages.
In other instances, Edward conducted private sessions away from the studio audience. The subjects of these segments later talked in greater detail about the situation that led to their reading with Edward and the effect the reading had on their lives. Periodically, segments revisit people who have previously appeared on the show. John Edward's current show, John Edward Cross Country, has been broadcast on WE, the Women's Entertainment Channel, since March 2006. In this forum, the audience is not supposed to supply John Edward with any prior information about themselves, their family or whom they are trying to connect with "on the other side." According to John Edward, he simply "lets his guides draw him to the people that spirits are trying to connect with, and the audience should only validate the information he gives them". During the first season of Cross Country, Edward traveled across the US, giving readings to large audiences in public venues. In subsequent seasons, the show has been broadcast from a set similar to that used for Crossing Over. In each season John Edward visited the people who'd been read during the show, along with their families, to see how this experience had changed their lives. |
