Amazon.com Review Laura Day, who has been "intuitive"--her word for "psychic"--since youth, here asserts that you, too, can milk your sixth sense for all it's worth. While Day's gift comes naturally to her, she contends that anyone can improve his or her natural intuitive instincts. While you may not win the lottery on your next try, this book may very well help you think more deeply and more clearly, helping you to function at a higher level than before. (Finding your car keys, for example, may not be a half-hour long process anymore.) Your attitude will undoubtedly have a great effect on your degree of success with her program. (If this helps at all, try to remember that Brad Pitt is a devout Day supporter, and James D. Watson, Nobel laureate and co-discoverer of the DNA helix, has endorsed Day's intuitions.) At any rate, the book is filled with plenty of brain-stretching exercises, and who can't use some of those?

Amazing, practical bookSeptember 29, 2008 This book is useful, both in its outcomes and in the way it can be used.
I purchased this book after I read it at the library. I had completed all the exercises in the book and wanted to do it all over again with an entirely new set of questions!
Laura Day has a way of getting you out of your head, and into your gut, so that the information coming through can only be intuitive. Though some of my personal answers were a bit fuzzy, I can only imagine this is because I have not seen the answers come to fruition yet. Other answers were clear.
Her book is exactly what she says it is - no disappointments whatsoever!
Phenomenal results!September 9, 2008 I read this book several yrs ago. I also purchased a small journal to write down notes after performing the exercises recommended. Although at the time I couldn't understand the meaning of the images and thoughts I "intuited" and wrote down, several years later I am amazed at the accuracy of my "predictions". I asked myself specific questions and then meditated following Laura's suggestions. As I got an impression,a thought, or an image, no matter how absurd and non-sensical it appeared, I wrote it down: dates, names, feelings, and events, even numbers. All of these came into the realm of existence in the future, without me being aware of it at the time they occured. Like a puzzle, all the pieces that made no sense by themselves, fit perfectly. I get chills just thinking I actually saw these events, people, situations, take place years ahead of time. Even the feelings I experienced I was able to predict in frightening detail. I wasn't aware of the parallel between these events and the predictions in my journal until recently, when I one day revisited my writings. Was it coincidence? Do we make our own destiny? Could it be that some of us really have special "gifts" that can be enhanced with the right training? I love this book. It may not work for everyone. Not all of us were meant to be doctors or astronauts or athletes or accountants. Or psychics.
Not a How ToAugust 20, 2008 This is not a how to book, for that I'd recommed other books such as How To Do Psychic Readings Through Touch, Psychic Protection: Beginnings (Beginnings (Jackson, Tenn.).), Psychic Power: Young Person's School of Magic and Mystery (Young Person's School of Magic and Mystery, Vol. 2) and others.
This book is more for the beginners beginner and just knowing/understanding what intuition is.
Some insights, but hard to readJuly 10, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I wanted to like this book, I really did, but I felt that the exercises were presented strangely, the book organized poorly, and the flow of the book stagnant. I believe Laura Day has intuit abilities and it's disappointing that someone so in touch with her sixth sense, and therefore somewhat tapped into the mystery of the unseen world around us, couldn't access a more convincing and fluid way to get her points across.
I gained some insights from the book. For example, I liked the explanation of how children shouldn't be stifled when they see a monster in their bedroom because this is a symbol that means something. We, as conditioned adults, have learned to tune out and discount this symbol as child's play, as well as most other symbols -- and we shouldn't! There are other sprinklings of knowledge that I found interesting.
Maybe I wrote my questions (which are the basis of the rest of the exercises in the book) poorly to start off, but I didn't think the "how to write a proper question" section was explained well. Perhaps if I wrote better intro questions I'd have gotten more from the book. That doesn't take away from my feeling that the book was off in some way.
A bit disappointedNovember 5, 2007 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I bought this book a couple of years ago. Since I am already very intuitive, I thought it would be interesting. I tried my best to do the exercises she asks for reader to do, but the people in the book had far more colorful images and analysis of their thoughts than I did! The exercise were hard for me to do - how do you know whether you are picking up clues for yourself or for someone that you know? Or even images from TV or movies that you've seen? I felt frustrated that I did not understand what was expected of me in the exercises and could not relate the disjointed images that I received to anything relevant in my life.
