Have you ever wished for a reassuring and easy way to talk to young children about death? Sydnei Kaplan, who is a mom, a part-time preschool teacher, and a writer, has written a truly lovely children’s picture book titled The Heaven Phone, which helps parents of young children navigate the heavy and challenging concept of death and reassures them that we all remain connected forever.

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL HEAR ABOUT THINGS LIKE:

• The smiling woman in Sydnei’s childhood bedroom who was surrounded in shining light.
• Syndei’s childhood spiritual experiences with her grandmother and aunt after each had transitioned. 
• How Reiki can help a person to heal both emotional and physical issues.
• The dream visit Sydnei had with her mom that confirmed that her dream was, in fact, a visit from her mom. 
• The Heaven Phone is a valuable resource for young children, older children, adults dealing with loss, and caregivers who need to discuss grief with a child.

SOME QUESTIONS IRENE ASKS SYDNEI:

• What was the sign you received the day of your father’s funeral? 
• How did your mom’s passing spark the creation of The Heaven Phone, and how did the term “the heaven phone,” come to be?
• What are the differing ways we can learn that our souls never die? 
• What would you like our Grief and Rebirth Podcast audience to know about The Heaven Phone, and how can it help a grieving child to heal?  

Join Irene and Sydnie as they discuss the different ways we can learn that our souls never die and we remain connected forever, her journey of spiritual discovery, and the story behind her lovely children’s picture book titled The Heaven Phone. Tune in now!
