Dr Judith Orloff's Blog

Dr Orloff - I picked up your book on CD just to listen to something while driving to work. I did not pay much attention at first as for me this was yet ‘another book to kill the time with’. Somewhere along the way, while listening to your book the tears started dropping down my face. I knew since I was a little kid that there was something different about me, and many times because of me being intuitive/emotional empath I felt like I am from 'another planet'. Your book gave me freedom and brought new meaning to my life. It's like finally after so many years of my life I was given the right diagnosis and permission to explore the gift I have to the maximum. I finally can start living my life to the fullest. Thank you so very much for this book. I look forward to see your show on PBS.

Dr. Orloff, I love your blog and website. Thank you for sharing your positive spirit with the rest of us.... With love, Jason Galbraith

Dear Dr. Judith Orloff: Intuitive Psychology/Psychiatry is a fascinating field of study. The PBS tape was also truly thought provoking in it's truthful and open nature. I did find humourous the description of the deceased not "seeing it that way". This may be entirely true, as maybe the dead don't really feel dead they are just transformed into some other matter of which we have no idea as of yet. Maybe someday this energy/matter will be more defined and we will see beyond the veil of death into new worlds. In similar like vein, intuition is far from understood. Thank-you for your multiple talents. Are you delving into Cosmic Consciousness of Dr. Bucke (from London Ontario)? This new intuitive sense makes sense when trying to heal the whole person rather than bits and pieces of aberrant personality. There is something, not understood in the nature of patients suffering with certain psychic sensitivities. It takes much sensitivity as an analyst to uncover the complex psyche of patients with these special gifts. Sensitivity making people prone to be misunderstood, and therefore, unloved. With love psychic healing takes place. Sensitives usually cannot handle what other non-sensitives can tolerate. As far as love is concerned the sensitive is probably less able to dispense with the very force that shapes them. Love cannot, does not live in shadowy spaces. For love to flow all forces of nature, misunderstood should be understood or at least partially understood. It is the ability of being open to the very real possibility that our world is wider than our definitions of it to date. This is why I am glad to find someone who can appreciate the nature of the artist and the nature of the intuitive. Often misdiagnosed and further harmed by hurtful labels and handling. Thank-you for your wonderful and creative energies! Jane Jones
