What does it mean to be a GHOSTBUSTER?

In Hollywood, ghostbusting is a fantastical affair: full of stunning special effects, hilarious stunts and extreme horror-filled happenings. In real life, ghostbusting is simple, quick and mostly drama-free. And it can be fun!

“Ghosts” are spirits who have been incarnate (living) and have not passed on when their earth body died. We call these stuck spirits “lost souls” or “earthbound” – which is very different from your dead Granny popping in to visit you from the other side. You don’t need to “ghostbust” your Granny – she’ll automatically leave when she’s finished giving you advice on your latest boyfriend and why you should break up with him.

The ghosts we need to “bust” are the ones which are haunting a person or place. The unwelcome ones. Some people can see these ghosts; others hear voices, feel the ghost or get “the shivers” or “goose-bumps”. Some people will just know there is something “ghostly” there – no matter how crazy it appears or sounds to others. However, you may simply find yourself feeling irritable, angry or sad or even uncomfortable, without being able to put your finger on what’s causing that. And if this continues it could become a major problem for you.

Maybe you’ve read this and just now realised you have a ghost in your home or work place. Living with a ghost can be disconcerting, distressing and down-right despairing. It can make you feel uncomfortable, unwelcome, scared – especially at night – and unhappy.  It can drag you down, knock you out, and hold you back from living the amazing life you want.

It does not have to be this way.

There is a solution, and it is fast and simple to apply, right now. It needs no special equipment: just you, some knowledge and a willingness to step outside of your comfort zone.

Oh yeah, and if you want to have some fun busting that ghost, that's possible too. Optional, but recommended.

Go ahead. Be a ghostbuster. It could be the most fun you've ever had.
