The goals to achieve with the help of this book are yours to set!

This little book was really a nice read, and I really enjoyed how Melanie Barnum approached psychic development. Her book "Llewellyn's Little Book of Psychic Development" is filled with easy to read tips on how to expand your psychic abilities. Now, as a tarot reader, I've a pretty open mind about this sort of stuff. If you don't have an inclination towards psychic abilities, well then this isn't a book for you.
Barnum uses personal stories and her wealth of knowledge about physic phenomenon to give a complete beginner the tools needed to start looking into their own psychic talents. The only thing you need for this book to work for you is an open mind and a journal, and having a willing friend to do some exercised with doesn't hurt. Barnum provides a lot of exercises to work on strengthening your abilities. There are exercises for many different types of abilities, so if you are unsure of what gifts you may have, doing some of these exercises highlight what latent abilities you should work on.
Really good book for beginners. If you are already working with psychic abilities, this book may be a little too basic for you. However, if you are trying to discover your abilities well then I recommend. Also, if you are just interested in reading about these phenomenon, I would give this book a chance. I didn't read this to delve into any of my abilities (I really don't think I have any) but it was interesting to read.
I received an e-copy of this book from NetGalley for my honest review.

This book is not only an easy enjoyable read, it is extremely helpful!!!
GET THIS BOOK!!!
I loved this book! If you are looking for a way to tap into and strengthen your own Psychic Gifts or develop new ones this is the book for you.
The best part about this book is that it is very easy to comprehend and the exercises are fun and super helpful. I would definitely recommend to anyone from the beginner to even the advanced psychic.
On a personal note this book not only helped me better my psychic abilities, it helped me to learn how to cope with the sometimes overwhelming aspects of living with my gifts, but using Melanie's methods has helped me to become more confident and able to cope.

AWESOME book by an AWESOME author. I ordered this book as soon as it came out and am very thankful I did. Melanie is a very gifted intuitive/psychic/medium and I strongly recommend this book for anyone that has even the smallest interest in "tuning in".

Llewellyn’s Little Book of Psychic Development (Llewellyn’s Little Books #2)by Melanie Barnum
192 Pages
Publisher: Llewellyn Worldwide Ltd, Llewellyn Publications
Release Date: June 8, 2017
Nonfiction (Adult), Religion, Spirituality, Mind, Body, Spirit
The book is divided into the following chapters.
Introduction: Why Me, Why You, Why This Book?
Chapter One: What is Psychic Development
Chapter Two: Energy, Meditation, and Symbols
Chapter Three: Understanding Your Basic Psychic Gifts
Chapter Four: Other Psychic Senses and Practices
Chapter Five: Psychic Tools
Chapter Six: Other Ways to Connect
Chapter Seven: Bringing It into Your Reality
I love the description she gives of herself versus the stereotypical one of a psychic medium. She talks about psychic abilities as being a birthright and that it is not dictated by race or nationality. She includes true stories, explanations, and exercises. She mentions tuning into your intuition by following your gut. She also stated the difference between intuition and psychic abilities is like splashing pain on a canvas to being a master artist. The journal entries and exercises are very detailed.
The author has smooth writing style. As I read the book, I felt as if I was sitting across the table having a conversation with a fiend. She does not come across as all-knowing or with the attitude of “you have to do it this way or else.” She is an everyday woman, wife, and mother who likes to help people, whether they are alive or a spirit. If you have ever wondered what life could/would be like having psychic abilities, this book would be a great starting point.

For someone who is new to anything psychic or spiritual, this book would be a great help!
However as someone who has figured a lot of this stuff out on her own, it wasnt particularly useful. I did enjoy some of the activities posed and will definitely use those in the future!

Great book
Love all the tips and exercises. Good for any seasoned psychic or beginner. I also loved how she mentioned other people and their books. Always nice to see others appreciating others.

Llewellyn's Little Book of Psychic Development by Melanie Barnum I have always seen things, heard things, and known things that I really shouldn't have. I also read people and it has been proven with people I have never met before but told them all about themselves. Still shocks me even though I have always been able to do it, So when I ran across this book I knew I had to read it. I personally devoured this book I read it in one setting. This book is great even if you think yo have no psychic powers. It comes with an easy to read run down a well as tips. I also loved the lessons. I have tried some of the lessons in the book as i was reading it. I do plan to make some audio files for others like the relaxation and protection bubbles, this way I can listen to them and do as they say like close your eyes, can't do that and read, I love how everything is explained in easy to understand terms, and you are totally walked through each and every section of the book.
I have read a lot of books about psychic powers some have been really great others have been boring drawn out pieces of dribble. This book though is written in first person by the author, you learn her story while figuring out your own. It is not filled with a bunch of scientific jargon that you cannot understand. It also makes everything simple. i really enjoyed reading this book, and can guarantee I will be reading it several times.
