Rating: Summary: Messages and comfort from loved ones who committted suicide Review: After I lost my former husband, my friend, the father of my children, to suicide, I sought help for coping with the devastation in our household. I was "directed" to Lysa's book in an odd manner. This book contained the words of people who committed suicide, as told to Lysa from the afterlife. It was of great help and comfort in attempting to understand the reason for the suicide, and assisted in helping me to feel at peace with the current place of being of my loved one. After I read the book, on the last page I found a phone number to contact Lysa for a phone session with Lysa and the deceased. After I did so, I felt as if a 100 pound weight had been lifted from me, as I removed any blame from myself as I was directed to do, and decided to go on with my life. I then scheduled a phone session with Lysa for myself and my children. Once again, the deceased came through. This session was of immense help to my children and assisted in recovering a peace and joy which had been lacking in our household since the suicide. Not only did their father come through to speak to us, but also our dearly beloved deceased dogs, with whom we desired contact. My children felt their anger diminish, and felt more at peace after the session. I highly recommend Lysa's book to anyone who has lost a loved one through suicide, and Lysa herself to anyone who has lost a loved one, either human or animal.
Rating: Summary: An Insightful Awareness of Life and Death Review: Conversations with the spirit world brought about changes in my perception of life. By using the ideas spoken by the spirits I was able to create a firm foundation on which I have a new way of living. There truly is a spiritual reality and although we are not able to see it, I believe that the seen world springs from an unseen realm. Give yourself a gift of awareness,courage and commitment by reading this book.
Rating: Summary: Spiritual Truths, Simply Told Review: Conversations with the Spirit World is a wonderful book that affirms the truth of "life-after-death" and gives poignant useful information for how those on this side of the veil can live more happy, fulfilled and productive lives by moving through our illusions, fears, doubts and blockages to love. This book brings important spiritual truths to light in a wonderfully simple and direct way. I can also see how it can heal many hearts and help the families of suicide to release the self-tyranny of their guilt. In addition, it is a catalyst for a deeper understanding of the continuity of life, and affirms this truth with stunning clarity.
Rating: Summary: This book inspired me to make changes in my life Review: Conversations with the Spirit World made me think about what is important to me in life. I used to work like a dog and now, after reading this book, I take time for myself and for the people I love. Lysa's spunky style of writing along with the amazing words coming from the souls on the other side, helped me to understand how important life is.. my life.. and yours. This book is one I will read again and again.

Rating: Summary: Conversations with the Spirit World Review: Here's a letter a wrote to Mrs. Moskowitz-Mateu that she asked me to post here...hope you enjoy! Monday, October 8, 2001 Dear Mrs. Moskowitz-Mateu, Hello, I am a 20 year old from Minneapolis, MN. I just would like to say how much of an impact your book, Conversations with the spirit world has had on me and my life. This book has touched my soul and my mind in ways that I didn't even know they could be touched. Your book has saved my life a few times -- to be honest. While feeling depressed and suicidal, I know if I sit down with your book I can get something out of it that makes me want to live again. Your book speaks of things happening for a reason and things are already planned. Well, I truly believe that. See, it is a funny story of how I found out about you. One night, my computer had gone on the fritz, I think, so of course I couldn't use it. Desperate to find something to do I turned on the radio to a radio talk show called Love Lines -- a show I, then, rarely listened to. It had been weeks, if not months, since I had listen to the show. But the thing that makes me wonder is that somehow it ended up that you were on that show promoting your book. What are the chances of me blindly turning on the radio to find you speaking of a book dedicated to the toughest struggle I am having. That night, out of all the nights I never listened to it, you were on. That right there says a lot. That I would just happen upon it. But now of course I don't believe that things just accidentally happen. Something so profound doesn't just happen by accident. Needless to say, I bought the book ASAP. Now it is falling apart from reading it and is marked up beyond belief. I may have been dead if not for your book. I don't know what the chances are you may actually read this e-mail personally but I hope you do. Your book, to me, has become a Bible of sorts. In fact, your book touches me more than the Bible could ever touch me. The words within it are so relevant to me and, I'm sure, other people. I won't ramble on like a crazy fan, but I just wanted to say that if not for you, Charley and co., I may have been dead by now. I am not perfect though. I am still 'in training,' I guess you could say. But I'm on my way. Thank you very much, again. If you can I would like to hear from you maybe -- but if not, I know we may see each other in the future (not too soon though, let's hope). Your 'disciple' - Andrew B.
Rating: Summary: A Fan from Boston Review: Hi Lysa: First off, I am a big fan even though I live on the other side of the country (Boston). I read your channelingspirits website 3-4 times a week and I've read "Conversations with The Spirit World" which was an excellent book. I've passed it to so many friends it's beginning to fall apart :) I just wanted to say thank you for writing this book
Rating: Summary: Conversations with the Spirit World Review: I felt suicidal and completely lost before my friend gave me this book. Conversations with the Spirit World saved my life! I know that sounds like a huge thing for a book to accomplish, but when you read it, you'll understand what I mean. This is more than just a book to me, it is a symbol of the turning point in my life from wanting to die to desiring to live. Thank you Lysa for allowing these people to speak through you. You are a gift to the human race.
Rating: Summary: Not what I was looking for Review: I just lost a friend to suicide and thought this book would help me understand it little better. It really didn't. I expected this to be a more "John Edward" type thing where there would be validations I could trust. It was just a stream-of- consciousness typed by the author. It seems to have helped a lot of people, judging from the other reviews, but it didn't do anything for me except cause more skepticism. It seemed to miss expressing any sympathy for those who have taken their own life.
