A twist of fate changed the life of author Tiffany Hopkins forever: in the midst of her
fast-paced career in the big city she unexpectedly inherited a cottage in America' s oldest
intentional Spiritualist community. The little town of Lily Dale in upstate New York is wholly
comprised of people who believe in talking to the dead drawing an average of 20 000 tourists
every year. These seekers come to experience the practice of spirit communication: booking
séances meeting one-on-one with mediums and fully immersing themselves in the otherworldly
atmosphere of this rare and wonderful town. After learning how to be a medium Hopkins began
focusing on normalizing talking to the dead getting the word out about the practice of
embodied mediumship the art of connecting with the self to hear from the other side which
offers potent expansion to anyone willing to be curious about the world beyond the veil.
Beyond encourages readers to increase their powers of empathy intuition and imagination to
inspire creativity heal body and mind and even create community and find their way to
like-minded souls. In addition to a step-by-step guide to the basics of mediumship Hopkins
includes prompts and exercises for developing skills like discernment and boundaries assuming
trance consciousness to create in a state of "flow " and working with others in collaborative
circles to pool ideas and receive more nuanced feedback from the universe. Readers will come
away with a fresh appreciation for this world--both physical and metaphysical--and an exciting
new way to approach their life by strengthening all six of their senses.
