Preface

There was something about the woman who sat in front of me that struck a chord deep in my soul. I was reading for Sonia, (not her real name) a mother in grief. A mother who loved her son, more than life itself. Her son had passed over instantly in a fatal car accident.

Even though the accident had occurred ten years ago, Sonia’s grief was as raw as if it had happened yesterday. As her tears flowed, she tried desperately to regain her composure. I sensed that Sonia had tried hard to carry on since her son’s death, but there was a deep emptiness in her heart.

Spirit did not let her down in that session and her son came through vividly with wonderful evidential information including his name, details about his family and acknowledging that his nephew had recently been born.

As I waved her goodbye at the garden gate, I felt deeply frustrated. I was acutely aware that, regardless of the loving exchange that had undoubtedly taken place between Sonia and her son, she walked away continuing to carry emptiness in her heart.

‘What can I do dear Spirit?’ I asked. ‘What can I do to help people fill that emptiness with knowing, without doubt, that not one moment goes by that our loved ones are not available to us?’

The answer back was immediate, ‘You must write about it!’

Although I have read for many people experiencing grief in the last thirty years, there was something about Sonia that sparked my determination to broadcast a message to the world through this book.

My message is simple. You can carry on a relationship with those who have passed!

My next challenge was to find a title and work out how to present a book that would be helpful. The next night before going to sleep, I asked Spirit to help me write the book I was feeling so passionate about. I had a dream about the famous, late Louise Hay.

Louise was dancing and clicking her fingers repeating ‘We’re going to get you through; we are going to get you through’. It was like a rap song and dance. I awoke with a clear memory of the dream and felt a hint of excitement. Maybe the dream was telling me my prayers were being heard, but I did not understand what it meant.

Back in the real world that morning, my house chores were calling me. I was in the middle of hanging a large basket of wet washing on the clothes line when I heard clearly in my mind a rap song with the words ‘Keeping love alive on the other side, keeping love alive on the other side.’ ‘That’s it’, I said to myself, ‘what a great title, I love it, thank you Spirit, thank you Louise!’

That was how this book was conceived. It has taken two years to come into fruition with many distractions such as relocating our family from the country to the city, the death of my beloved dog, Charlie, my younger child finishing high school, Covid-19 lockdowns and a broken ankle. When I was laid up with my ankle, I really started making progress with this book. I believe that everything happens for a reason. If you are holding this book, it may have been someone in Spirit who guided you to do so. It also means you have an open mind and I commend you for that.

Words written from a sincere place have the potential to shift our awareness and change our experience of life, another wonder of the universe we live in. My hope is that some of the words you read on these pages strike a chord within you that brings increased harmony and peace for you.

Introduction

Do you realise how much you are loved? Do you realise that our loved ones who have passed over continue to love us, perhaps even more so, once they are on the other side? Do you realise that you can continue a relationship with them despite their Earthly departure?

My passion is sharing with others that life goes on and that any perceived separation is an illusion. Although the body has an expiry date, our soul does not. We are all light beings in a physical body. When we pass, our bodies expire but the strength and exuberant nature of our spirit goes on and dwells as an awareness, as a consciousness, that any of us still living can connect with at any time.

There seems to be an outdated idea that only mediums can communicate with the other side. I know this is not true. We can all communicate with our loved ones in Spirit. Love is the most powerful force of all, and the expiry of a physical body is not enough to break a connection of love between souls whether the soul inhabits a body or not.

I know that many of you already naturally talk to your loved ones in Spirit. You look at their photo and mentally have a chat. You think of them when you lay in your bed at night, wishing they were near and hoping that they are. When it is an anniversary you miss them more and you hope they know you are thinking of them. Perhaps you light a candle for them or have planted a tree in their name. Maybe you got a tattoo to honour their memory.

I know what I am saying is nothing new, but my aim is to normalise our ongoing relationships with those we love who have passed on. I would love those experiencing grief to feel free to acknowledge and embrace their loved ones whole-heartedly without fear of feeling that there is something wrong in doing so. It is natural to want to continue a relationship with someone you love even though the rules have changed since they left their body.

As a practising medium for the last thirty years, I have been blessed to witness what some would call a miracle; communication with the other side. These reunions are a healing wave of unconditional love. The pain, the heartache and the sorrow evaporate in those moments that a connection with their loved ones is made.

There is no doubt in any part of my being that we live on, that there is no end, and that your soul is made of a love so strong that it shines the brightest light you could ever imagine. On some level, we are all connected like a magical tapestry created from an indestructible force. I know you have many questions about how, why and where that I hope to address in this book but for now, sit, if you will, with the idea that our loved ones do live on and you can maintain a relationship with them.

The only things that stop us from connecting to the other side are our beliefs, trust in ourselves and our own limitations. My hope, prayer and intention for this book is that I can help you to unravel your pre-conceived ideas and open you up to a world where there is no separation, where there is only unconditional love and forgiveness, and where you are open to receiving the gifts that Spirit so wants to deliver to you.

This book is not about developing your medium skills, although if you wish to do that, I encourage you to trust and follow your intuition. There are many wonderful teachers on the subject who you will be drawn to when you follow your heart and ask Spirit to guide you.

This book is about bringing into your awareness the natural communication that is already available to absolutely anyone and may in fact already be happening.

I have tried to keep this book simple and easy to understand as I know some of you reading this may be experiencing grief and may find it hard to concentrate for any length of time. I feel driven to deliver this information to you in the purest, most authentic, and impactful way. In Chapter 11 you will find some frequently asked questions, so if you do not find some of the answers you are looking for in the body of the book, I suggest you look there. You may prefer to go there first; there is no right way to use this book, but I encourage you to take on board whatever information resonates with you.

Whether you have lost a partner, a child, a parent, a relative, a friend, a mentor or a pet, the experience of grief and loss can be devastating. It can also be a catalyst to make us feel, make us question and make us reach into our hearts. I have lost relatives and friends and I when I lost my pet terrier Charlie, of thirteen years, I was heartbroken. The unconditional love between a pet and their carer runs deep.

This book will also help to alleviate fear surrounding death and our own mortality. Death is a natural part of life and it is time that we begin to accept it rather than see it as the most awful thing that can happen. Spiritual leader, Carolyn Myss, described our planet’s current consciousness as being in its adolescence. I believe it is time we become more adult about truth, peace, acceptance, and harmony. This includes accepting the natural rhythms of life and death.
