Inside the Other Side: Soul Contracts, Life Lessons, and How Dead People Help Us, Between Here and Heaven

Concetta Bertoldi. Morrow, $14.99 trade paperback (256p) ISBN 978-0-06-208740-9

What people really want when they go to a medium is to know that “dead” isn’t: they want confirmation that dead loved ones still exist. As someone who has been communicating with spirits since she was child, Bertoldi knows that loved ones on “the other side” exist and that they want to help those still alive. What people don’t realize, she explains, is that the soul and body both are energy: physical life and death are on a continuum. Spirits on the other side are energy, too, and not only are they all around us, they can “mak(e) things happen on this side” by focusing their energy. We all have the ability to connect with “spirit guides” through emotions, which is where the physical meets the spiritual, we are told. In touch with both the dead and with life, Bertoldi guides readers to bring positive energy to life’s challenges, to spiritual growth, and to get in touch with the other side in this life-affirming and personable book.
