CAN'T PUT THIS ONE DOWN

Many of us have had mystical experiences but are reluctant to share the unexplainable in out lives. Arielle Ford, in her new book, Magical Souvenirs, has inspired ordinary people (and a few famous ones) to tell their stories - particularly those involving travel. As Arielle explains in her introduction, travel creates more "time and space for something to happen . . . and to notice the unusual." From the first chapter of a woman in prison who had an out of body experience to the last stories of divine interventions, this book gives us courage to believe and follow our dreams, visions and synchronicities. A compelling can't-put-it-down read.

A beautiful reminder that there is magic in the world

Whether it's a chance encounter amidst a daily routine or an unexpected turn during distant travels, each of these stories is a heart-warming reminder that whatever we truly need is always close at hand and every moment is a mystical adventure......if we take the time to notice.

I keep it on my bedside table and re-read a few stories from time to time, just to remind and inspire myself to look for the magic as I travel through my days.

A truly "magical souvenir!"

A friend gave me this book for my birthday a few days ago, and I stayed up half the night with it. I'm getting on in years and cannot travel as much as I used to, but this is the next best thing! Actually, just as good but different, as one needs no suitcases or airplane tickets for these soul journeys. A wonderful and inspiring read for old and young alike. Solves my gift-hunting task for the coming Christmas!

Opened my eyes wide to a whole new world

Finding this book was a blessing to me. As someone who hasn't done a lot of traveling (and is, in fact, afraid to fly!), this book gave me access to the experiences of those who have travelled the four corners of the earth. I was awed and inspired by each amazing story. I can't say for sure that I will actually visit the places described in this book, but I can tell you that I am more awake to the magic of my everyday life.

Thank you to Ms. Ford and to all the contributors of this book, for opening my eyes to a whole new world.


don't want this one to end

This is a book I like so strongly that I had to write a review. The true stories
of other people's experiences always appeal to me because stories connect us
to each other. These are mystical experiences, dream-time, past-life
regressions, synchronicities, and just surprising unexpected things that have
happened to change other's lives. We can all learn from them and perhaps
renew our own hopes.

A chance encounter that leads to a spiritual awakening . . . an awe-inspiring coincidence . . . a soulful connection to a strange new place . . . Magical Souvenirs brings together over 60 true accounts of mystical journeys of both the body and the spirit.

From a vacationer in Egypt who suddenly recites an obscure prayer in flawless Arabic, to a prisoner who mentally travels back to her childhood and wakes up with a fresh-picked daisy in her hand, to a couple visited by the spirit of their deceased son in a New Mexico church, Magical Souvenirs takes readers on an inspirational odyssey to other places and worlds. Whether you are traveling to historic landmarks, sacred sites, or the mysterious depths of the soul itself, these touching and uplifting stories will transport you to a realm where prayers are answered and where everyday miracles happen.

"These enchanting stories shine a light along the path where reality and miracles meet." (Deepak Chopra)

"Arielle Ford presents insights into the human condition . . . .The magical, mystical experiences can be life-changing, for what they show us about who we really are." (Neale Donald Walsch, author of Conversations with God)
