As a gifted psychic, Deborah Graham is able to read people's auras. As such, she doesn't look at you; she looks in you. And in her decades of helping people find true and lasting love, she coaches her clients to do the same: to look past the outward fa cades that people project to the world, and to look inward, starting with themselves. By stepping her clients through what she calls a "spiritual enema," she helps purge them of past issues and baggage so that they are open and ready for real love. By putting their true selves forward, they will pave the way for a true psychic match. In her debut book, Deborah Graham shares the tongue in cheek no-holds-barred advice as well as her tried-and-true relationship rules: How to tell a psychic match from a physical one, and how to expand your awareness to what you need energetically in a life partner; How to use the dating rule of 3s: 3 dates to see if there is a match and 3 months of monogamy before sex; How to avoid the biggest first date saboteurs (leave your cell phone in the car; opt for a zoo, not a bar; and resist information overload) Why many people miss the most glaring red flags and how to listen to your intuition; How to know when it's time to say good-bye.

“Feel better, get done more and become a nicer person” In this age of social media, fake news, individualism and information overload, the certainties we relied on in the past are gone. In our quest for assurance and support, the only seemingly dependable pillar left is other people. So we look to them. But they are unsettled too. And by looking to them, we create and perpetuate our own vicious stress-cycle. As a result, we lose our sensible selves. And we go bananas. But there is good news. If we look around us, there are people who withstand the collective lunacy and stay grounded. They do something that most of us have a hard time doing: they stay themselves. And the best news is that what they can do, you can do too. It doesn’t require any special talents or supernatural powers. It only requires doing. In this amiable, open and accessible book, Jeroen Kraaijenbrink takes you on his personal journey out of Bananaland. Drawing from cognitive psychology, martial arts, Saint Benedict, personal experience, and a wide range of other sources, the book offers a nine-step approach with some remarkably practical advice for keeping a cool head in the collective lunacy. “Free yourself from the collective lunacy and reclaim your calm and sensible self”
