I just couldn't get into this book. The many tellings of other people's stories and then bringing it back around to the point were really grating on my nerves. Also never got to the point where we find out what the steps are and I got past the halfway point of the book. This is a no from me.
You Are Psychic unlocks the gateway to tapping into your innate abilities, offering seven profound steps to connect with positive energy, protect your own, and unleash your inner magic. Char Margolis' empowering guide is a transformative invitation to embrace a new way of being.
This book should have been titled "I Am Psychic" because the other spent more time telling stories about herself and her life than she did on training people to develop their own psychic abilities. I thought the writing was disjointed and there were parts where she repeated some of the same stories. She also pushing the dark entities and evil things lurking in the spirit world like a psychic Zak Bagans. I think when you dwell on those things that's what you attract. If you want to learn to work on these skills try Mat Auryn.
All my life I have had inklings, feelings, that I feel things differently than those around me. Although I have read other books regarding this phenomenon Char Margolis simplifies the steps into concise and accurate stages, although me to experiment with these notions and feelings.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and will probably come back to ready it again and again.
I've known of Char Margolis for some time. This book was an interesting read, and I loved the various stories not only about her own experiences but others who have been fortunate to have a reading. I love the structure, with tips and areas where you could go back and get a summary quickly. I recommend this book. Thank you to St. Martin's Press and NetGalley for an e-ARC of this title in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own.

I enjoyed this book! Char is a very engaging writer and thoroughly explains the workings of being a psychic, I may not agree with some of her beliefs. But I enjoyed this book nonetheless and it is an excellent read! I read this book via NetGalley in exchange for my honest opinion.
I have to confess before reading You Are Psychic I had never heard of Char Margolis. I wanted to read this book because I already knew I have some psychic ability and I wanted to learn how to increase it. Ms Margolis does give tips to the reader on how to tune into our body and feelings, and to listen to that "gut" feeling. I want to thank NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for an early copy to review.
Char Margolis, a well known psychic with over 50 years of experience, has appeared on national TV talk shows and has her podcast. She contends that everyone is psychic and can develop their psychic intuition in seven simple steps. This entertaining book is chock full of interviews with the various celebrities, clients, and podcast callers she has encountered in her long career. Particularly helpful is the main point summary at the end of each chapter and tip boxes. I could not find a clear explanation of what the seven steps were. I would suggest an additional chapter in which the seven steps to becoming psychic are spelled out.
I really wanted to like this book, and while the author has led a fascinating life, I really wanted fewer stories and examples from her own life and more step-by-step guidelines to noticing the psychic connections in my own life.
While I found some of this interesting…and I do believe in positive (and negative) energy…I found most of the anecdotes proof that if you look hard enough for something, you’ll see it (even if it isn’t really there).
I'm not psychic before or after reading this, but I'm sure it takes lots of practice and time for most people, and it may never happen for many. Nonetheless, there are some very practical approaches and ideas here that will help some readers. Many of the approaches are questionable in that they are open to interpretation (e.g. that butterfly is sending a message about X), so it can be tough to discern what experiences "real". But this will benefit some and be a fun exercise for others.
Thanks very much for the free ARC for review!!
the book states that you don't have to be born with the gift in order to be psychic but you can train yourself to be psychic and know the signs. Some signs the books states that could be apart of your psychic abilities are nudges from the universe, gut feelings, nagging thoughts you can't get rid of, stomach upset or nausea on if something bad is going to happen, dreams, imagination, things we say, deja vu, reading signs, smells, and electrical signs. as you can see the author states that we can receive signed from the universe in many different ways and they can be interoperated in different ways. they said children's have divine intuition, similar when you hear of how dogs and cats can sense spirits. the book focuses on messages, signs, spirit guides, angels and how to interoperate the messages.& signs you receive. the book has short stories of people and their experiences. it says you are able to tap into your psychic abilities but you have to practice. i wish there were more exercises on how to open up your gift. some photos would be nice to see as well, i wish the different types of psychics were addressed, such as the 4 clairs, clairaudience, clairvoyance, Clairsentience, Claircognizance. i wanted to learn more about the 4 main clairs, i want to learn about mediums develop their abilities.
I often have what many call “Deja vu” but really, it’s that psychic side of me showing itself. Recently we received a phone call as we were making dinner. It was a call I had known was coming and was heart broken that its time had come. It’s not the first time this has happened either. Has this happened to you? Think it might be some latent psychic ability? I suggest reading this book to help you understand and learn how to tap into your inherent talent. Char Margolis will take you through seven steps to help you along the way. If you’ve read this far you really should purchase this book…it’s what you’ve been looking for!
