I have to say, this author knows her stuff.
As I've learned from reading many of her books, she has long had a history of studying the chakra system. Through personal experience, she has adapted some of the esoteric systems with her own style, which are discussed more fully within her books.
This book in particular is an important one. In our culture, we all suffer abuses of some kind or another, even abuses we probably wouldn't consider abuse. Take noise pollution for example - it's a real assault on your senses, although we drown it out and let our body deal with the consequences.
But this book deals with the heavier stuff too - relationship issues, physical or sexual abuse, eating disorders, mental imbalances, whatever it may be, it's probably covered in this book. And what I have noticed is this author really knows what she's talking about - she provides insights I have not heard come from anyone else in my entire life.
I strongly encourage this book to everyone, regardless of who you are. This is a book for humanity.
Ever had things happen to you that made you wonder why cetrain type of things seem to be happening to you over and over again? I stumbled up this book during the time of my divorce, when I was desperate to figure out why it happened, what was my lesson, and how do I make sure I learn it. One of the books that taught me a great deal about myself. I am now using it to raise and support my son better than my parents knew how. Tattoo of second chakra from this book made its way on my lower back as a permanent reminder of the fact that we are so much more than this mortal body.
