Is mediumship a rare talent? Or does each of us have the potential to stay in touch with loved ones who have crossed over? In this groundbreaking book, expert astral traveller Giulia Jeary Knap presents evidence that we are all connected - and that connection doesn't end with physical death.Drawing on more than 25 years of in-depth research into mediumistic accounts and near-death experiences - as well as her personal meetings with deceased family members and friends, through dreams, lucid dreams and astral travel - Giulia examines the themes of transition, death, and life after death, and shares simple techniques for contacting your own dear departed on the spiritual plane.This book is intended to be a source of comfort, not only for those who have suffered a loss, but also for anyone who has questions or doubts about a subject many find difficult to talk about. The techniques described in this book do not require any special training; they are within everyone's grasp. As Giulia demonstrates, our dear departed are closer to us than ever - and only too willing to reassure us, watch over us and guide us.
