Summary:
"In today's constantly changing world we all face daily losses, big and small, but these everyday setbacks often go unrecognized and unmourned. This unacknowledged grief consumes the soul, creating an invisible pain that the "Long Island Medium", Theresa Caputo, has witnessed in many of her clients. Though they are suffering, they rarely understand where the anguish is coming from-or how to deal with it. The only relief, according to Caputo's special gift she calls "Spirit", is to name these feelings of grief, recognize the losses for what they are, and create healing practices around them." -- Inside front jacket flap.
