Manuel Matis's book, 'De-Stigmatizing the Paranormal' or possibly titled 'Borders of Normal,' explores the commonality of experiences often labeled as paranormal or hallucinatory.

He argues that such experiences, including hearing voices or feeling watched, are more prevalent than typically acknowledged.

Matis emphasizes the importance of understanding the individual's relationship with these experiences, differentiating between those that support well-being and those that hinder it.

The book challenges societal stigma surrounding these phenomena, promoting a more compassionate and nuanced understanding of mental health and altered states of consciousness.

His work encourages a re-evaluation of what constitutes 'normal' and advocates for a more inclusive approach to mental health care.
