Publisher's summary

James Van Praagh is a spiritual medium - someone who is able to bridge the physical and spiritual worlds. Unaware of his spiritual gifts until he was in his 20s, he slowly came to terms with his unique abilities. In addition, many of his sessions with grieving people who came to him looking to contact the spirits of deceased loved ones are explored.

From a devastated mother recieving a message of hope from her deceased little girl to communicating with a young man, killed in Vietnam, who doesn't realize he's dead, the theme of hope and peace in the afterlife is affirmed.

Van Praagh also helps the listener recognize and positively deal with the pain of grief in a healthy, honest manner. Part spiritual memoir, part case study, part instrumental guide, Talking to Heaven will change the way you perceive death...and life.

Excellent, all around

This is a GREAT book. Equal parts practical guidance and real world stories. Straight to the point so it’s moderate in length. Narrarator is excellent. The only thing that needs work is the book cover art... doesn’t do right by the contents! Highly recommended.

Beautiful Book. Pleasant Reader.

Loved it and the reader was very good, but still would have loved it if James read it himself. Beautiful book. Loves James Van Praagh.

Offers Hope

Like the majority of this author ‘s books, Talking To Heaven is uplifting. Van Praagh is a natural teacher who explains clearly and simply, and he leaves no doubt that his mission is to bridge the physical and the etherial and to offer hope and assuage fears about crossing over.

Excellent compilation of after life

While I disagree with the theological insights of James, I loved the different experiences of departed loved ones communicating with those left here on earth. Having had similar experiences, not through a medium, I know they are real. I also really like his advice and counsel for grieving in the last chapters. A lot of truth - esp non judgment and love is the key. Highly recommend.

Lost my Husband to Cancer.... this helped!

For anyone struggling with grief, I would ABSOLUTELY recommend this book. I struggled with his loss, and accepting that I'd never have the answers I yearned for... this book helped me to clarify what to accept as signs from my Husband.
