In this episode, Thin Places Podcast host, Mindie Burgoyne explores several questions concerning how we define "thin" places or mystical places. The basic definition she ascribes is, "thin places are places where the veil between this world and the eternal world is thin." SEGMENT 1- Questions on thin places:

What caused the ancients to choose certain places that still vibrate today? Why Ireland – why are there so many thin places there? In an effort to further explain the qualities of thin places, Mindie shares the story of The Journey of St. Gobnait and "places of resurrection" Links to posts about St. Gobnait and places of resurrection:
