In episode 9 of Death, Grief And Other Shit We Don't Discuss, Kyle McMahon travels to Lily Dale, New York - a gated hamlet in Southwestern New York which is made up entirely of Mediums and Spiritual healers.  

Kyle is given a tour of Lily Dale by Tom Cratsley, a healer and teacher who has been a resident of Lily Dale for decades. Together, they explore the healing temple, pet cemetery, Inspiration Stump and unravel the stories behind this unique town. 

Additionally, Tom talks about the origins of Lily Dale, its ties to the Spiritualism movement of the United States and the incredible life of Spiritualisms founder, Andrew Jackson Davis.

Explore the unforgettable signs our loved ones can leave us, even when it seems unexplainable, on this fascinating journey into the afterlife and spiritual communication, and discover the power of believing in something beyond our physical existence.

"Its about healing, it's about integrating all that we are.  So many religions talk about us being children of light... we haven't stepped up the wattage and the amperage."

We had such a great conversation last week that we couldn't fit everything into one episode.  In this bonus material, Rev. Elaine Thomas and Rev. Gillian speak about the multi-dimensional levels that we can all work on, whether it's intentional or not.

Seasoned Medium Rev. Elaine Thomas joins us on this week’s episode.  Elaine sits down with Rev. Gillian to share her thoughts and wide variety of experiences on the healing power of mediumship. She encourages people to trust and explore their inner lives and follow the calling of one’s own heart.

Spiritualism is alive and well ... which is ironic because it is a religion that talks to the dead.

This is part 1 of a 3 part series on Lily Dale, the world's largest spiritual community. Located in upstate New York somewhere between Buffalo, Niagara Falls and the Canadian border, "The Dale" welcomes roughly 20,000 visitors through its pearly gates each summer for lectures, classes, readings and healings. Lily Dale's year-round residents number around 275 and it has its own post office and fire department -- not to mention one of the country's oldest pet cemeteries and a bonafide fairy trail.

In part 1 I talk with Reverend Ron Skowronski who leads a popular ghost walk that is part scares, part history with dollop of humor and a night cap of spiritualism mixed in. The 3-hour walk transverses most of the hamlet and culminates at the famous "Inspiration Stump" under a canopy of trees with, amazingly, no mosquitoes (although you will get bitten most any other time except for the end of Reverend Ron's ghost walks -- go figure!). A skilled story-teller and knowledgeable spiritualist, and a genuine good guy, Ron is the perfect guide to kick off this mini series. Enjoy!

Special thanks to 13-year old Emily Heske for recording the intro.
