5.0 out of 5 stars
A spritual gift, lovingly shared, 21 Jul 2000
Both as an autobiography and as a gentle introductory guide to unlocking the psychic abilities which Derek Acorah believes we all possess, this book is delightfully crafted. Beginning with his early life in Liverpool, where, as a little boy he first began to demonstrate the remarkable psychic gifts which he inherited through his grandmother, Derek writes of his experiences with humour and affection. He describes the dawning of his awareness of a world beyond our material perceptions with an air of such normalcy and matter-of-factness that it is perfectly easy to believe that this otherwise normal little lad was completely accepting and at home with his abilities. Just as comfortable, it seems, as he was with his other exceptional gift: soccer. Life as a first class footballer with Liverpool FC and USC Lion in Australia is described by him with fondness and pride, although his other calling was not to relinquish him forever to the football stadiums. He was destined to become one of Britain's top psychics, very much in demand as a psychic-medium, with appearances on TV, radio and as psychic consultant to the stars of showbusiness. Now, with warmth, openness and honesty, Derek shares with us, not only his incredible life, but generously offered step-by-step advice and guidance for anyone who feels that they want to develop their psychic abilities; from psychic awareness and meditation to divination and mediumship. No pretentions or claims to being one of a priviliged few who hold exclusive arcane gifts here. This book has been written for all, whether believer or skeptic -- and written with hope and love in the heart.
