LOS ANGELES, CA & NORTH PORT, FL – JPX Media announced the winners and finalists of THE 2010 INTERNATIONAL BOOK AWARDS (IBA) on May 18, 2010. Over 300 winners and finalists were announced in over 140 categories covering print and audio books. Awards were presented for titles published in 2008, 2009 and 2010. Among those winners and finalists was John Culbertson’s New Age – Non Fiction title “Psychic Self Defense and Protection: An Energy Awareness Guide.”

John Culbertson is a professional psychic channel, motivational speaker and New Age instructor. Now he can add International Award Winning Finalist to that list. In his latest book he shows readers the energy sensitive world they live in and lets them know, like it or not, that psychic stress is part of that world.

Psychic Self Defense and Protection offers physical actions which provide protection from psychic/energy attacks, teaches visualization processes that defend against such attacks, and shows how to maintain or restore the integrity of one’s aura from psychic attacks.  The book also shows readers how to protect both other people and locations from negativity and from energy draining attacks.

“John has presented a straightforward approach to the essential instinct of personal protection…every now and then we need someone to flip a brighter light on even the most obvious of things,” says renowned spiritual medium Charles A. Filius in the foreword to John’s book.

The book, released March 22, 2010, is already receiving good reviews at both Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble. Among them includes Michael Harrison who says “I have never been into the metaphysical, but reading this book was very enlightening. I have heard about auras, but never given them much thought. I like the way the author uses situations that everyone deals with on a daily basis to explain how positive and negative energy affect our lives. This book is a great read for anyone interested in the subject of auras or positive and negative energy.”
