REVIEW: James Redfield – The Twelfth Insight: The Hour of Decision

Do you have that pervasive sense of foreboding – the feeling that the world seems to be spiraling out of control? In his book, The Twelfth Insight, James Redfield makes the point that we never had any control to begin with, but that we can each make a difference with our personal input. He follows up with practical suggestions for our spiritual journey in turbulent times.

This is not the typical self-help guide, but in his unpretentious prose, Redfield is putting a positive spin on the apocalyptic Mayan prophecy for the year 2012.



REVIEW: Neale Donald Walsch – Happier than God

Neale Donald Walsch is famous for his “Conversations with God” series. Now in this book, he has raised our expectations. Very clearly and concisely, he addresses criticisms against The Power of Attraction, and gives spiritual insights that can turn an ordinary life into an extraordinary experience. His theme throughout: “Life was meant to be happy” First of all, Walsch takes issue with folks that claim…



REVIEW: Dan Millman – Way of the Peaceful Warrior

Dan Millman’s “Way of the Peaceful Warrior” is a fascinating, autobiographical novel, but the book itself has had an almost mystical history. It was published first back in 1980 to underwhelming success and immediately went out-of-print. Someone gave a copy to a retired publisher who republished it in 1983. With no budget for marketing. This time it caught on by word-of mouth, became a huge…



REVIEW: Michael Bernard Beckwith – Spiritual Liberation: Fulfilling Your Soul’s Potential

Michael Bernard Beckwith is best known for his association with The Secret, as well as founding the Agape International Spiritual Center. His book, Spiritual Liberation, is a summation of his thirty years of spiritual quest. Michael has come a long way from the 60’s Vietnam War protester and marijuana dealer. It makes for some compelling reading. The main message seems to be that transformation to…

REVIEW: Guy Finley – The Courage to Be Free: Discover Your Original Fearless Self

The Courage to Be Free is a small gem of a book – one to be treasured. In it, author Guy Finley doesn’t offer any startling new spiritual insights, but instead lovingly leads us to remember and rediscover our original spiritual birthrights.

The message is that we are born with all the spiritual assets needed to combat the thoughts of fear, worry, and doubt that block our freedom.

There are also directions on how and where to get these products.



REVIEW: Dee Wallace – Conscious Creation

Many of you will remember author/actress Dee Wallace as Mary, the mother in the movie ET: The Extraterrestrial. In her book, Conscious Creation, Dee shares her life journey and movingly writes it as a metaphor for the movie ET. ET had been abandoned, was scared, confused and didn’t know how to get home.



Review: Christine Arylo – Choosing ME before WE

There are certain concepts that Christine doesn’t just suggest but proclaims: “There’s no good reason to knowingly sleep with another woman’s husband or boy-friend”. Next: You don’t have to stay in a bad relationship, and finally, “We’d all be a lot better off if women stopped competing for men and started supporting each other”.



Review: Marina Spence – Make Every Day A Friday

Each chapter is packed with nuggets of wisdom and ended with interesting Exercises and a succinct Summary. At the end of the book, we get caught up with Allison, Carmen, Rachel, Tania and Jill and find out how they have all sorted out their lives. Fascinating!
