Summary: From One Medium to Another it's Metaphysically Phenomenal
Review: As a metaphysician and a fellow medium I would recommend this book as a MUST READ!!! She shares her gifts and her love with the reader. This is not just another run of the mill book about a medium, or metaphysics....but truly conveys the message from Spirit from beginning to end. Thank You Sherry.
Love and Light

Summary: Incredible - Honest - Heartwarming
Review: Finally a book about a real psychic living a real life! What a blessing to walk beside her as I read of her journey. What an eye opener...... we are all intuitive. I guess I never thought of that as psychic. Maybe I've really KNOWN all along those things I only imagined I knew...

Summary: If you suffer from depression, read this.
Review: This book is a very sincere and honest account of every day life with depression. She had everything going for her but couldn't enjoy any of it. She didn't even know she suffered from depression. Like so many of us, she just kept slogging along for years living on determination with little joy. I found the story inspiring and uplifting. I also enjoyed her account of her session with a psychic. Having never been to one, I had no idea what it would be like.

Summary: From The Heart...
Review: This book touched my heart, I felt it was a story similar to my life, always searching, knowing there is something more. I enjoyed the story as it was one that I and everyone could ralate to, and it was brought down to a level that anyone could understand.

Summary: This book exudes compassion, love and light!
Review: We all have obstacles in our lives, no matter what our lives appear to be from the outside--this author knows what it's like to suffer and overcome devastating circumstances and debilitating depression and learn to find hope in spirituality and faith in God and her Divine Purpose. The author offers the reader many practical, simple tools for living a life of "everyday spirituality"--she teaches that the metaphyscial is nothing to be feared, but rather something each of us encounters in our lives every day without realizing it. The tools she gives for manifesting and meditation and the examples she gives of psychic readings and what to expect from a psychic reading are wonderful. It's obvious the author "walks" her talk and believes wholeheartedly that we all have a Divine Purpose that we can discover and fulfill. She offers easy ways for the reader to discover their own Divine Purpose, without the aid of a psychic, and makes it clear that "being psychic" is a gift we all have, if only we choose to tune into higher energies.

This is one of the most down-to-earth books I have read about metaphysics and New Age beliefs. It could have been titled "Metaphysics 101", or even "Refresher Metaphysics" for the author's grasp of basic, universal concepts that can be applied easily to everyone's daily life.

The author is both a Christian and a "psychic", which I always thought were incompatible, but she points out that we are all intuitive, and that we all have God-given gifts that we can use to get our own Divine Guidance and to manifest harmony and balance and love in our lives.

This book is extremely well-written and flows in a beautiful, uplifting way that will make you feel good when you're done reading it. If you've ever suffered from depression, you will learn about how important early treatment is, and that "sensitive" people are often prone to depression without realizing it. And, while the author has triumphed over depression, she makes it clear that it is a difficult, often-misunderstood mental illness that will not go away all by itself. She does not ask that the reader "talk" or "think" his or her way out of the illness, nor does she blame the victim. In the end, the reality of depression is grim, can be overcome, or at least managed, and is not the fault of the one who suffers from this disease.

In the end, if there were such a thing as "common sense metaphysics", this book would be at the top of the list of "must-reads"!
