Psychic art is about contacting the creative source and thinking outside the box of our own limitations. This can lead to extraordinary results, the ability to paint portraits of people you don't know, indeed being able to draw and paint and compose without training. With the right tools, and a clear sense of purpose, we can all develop our ability, learning to enter altered states at will, to produce art that exceeds our normal expectations.

July 19, 2008: This is an interesting and insightful book. To begin with, the author spends almost half the book examining and explaining the conflict and communication that occurs between the right half of the brain, and the left. With a series of exercises and tests, the reader learns to understand how each half approaches and responds to external and psychic stimuli, and how to ?trigger? the correct half when required. Once this symbiotic relationship is understood, the reader can then better understand the remaining chapters. Although titled The Art Of Being... Psychic, the title also refers to psychic art, and the author not only explains how she does it, but also how the reader can develop his or her own psychic artist abilities. One of the most important things when dealing with any manifestation of psychic abilities is that of validation- how do you know when the impressions you receive are correct? The author tells you how, and follows that up with a chapter on intention, making sure you create positive energy instead of negative in your daily life. Following this, the author deals with energizing the first three of the seven Chakras, and also makes note of the fact that different teachers will use different terminology for the same things. From there, Laine goes on to developing sensing energy, psychometry, clairsentience, paper reading, water reading, auric reading, finding lost articles, developing psychic art and portraiture, and automatic writing- all with straightforward, clear instructions on beginning, using, and closing down psychic sessions, as well as examples from her own experiences. To conclude, the author discusses the ?Omni-versal Mind? and how everything is connected to and influenced by energy and the various body types of men and women, and what they?re like when balanced or unbalanced. All this is directed towards creating our own personal life through the manifestation of our energy thoughts. ?Man, know thyself.? This book will certainly help to do just that. - Michael Woodhead for TCM reviews

June 22, 2008: As a person who has been a journey of personal development, as well as a student of life, June-Elleni Laine's book is a welcome addition to any library. Her account of her discovery and development in Psychic artistry is riveting and she includes many exercises and test to assess your own progress and psychic character. Even if you are only mildly interested in all things psychic this is a welcome introduction from one, if not the, leading psychic artist in the UK today. I highly recommend you purchase this book and if you get the chance see her performing live, do.
