 C.E. Lindgren, Jennifer Baltz   This book, compiled and edited by Lindgren and Baltz, contains a collection of articles about auras. I was really hoping that studying this book would help me to finally see them but I was disappointed when I reached the end as I found that I still didn't have the tools and techniques that I was looking for. Despite this I did find it an interesting book and thought that on the whole it was well written and very readable. The articles, in the form of chapters, vary from the more theoretical to the more practical, such as 'How to sense the aura' which includes some great exercises to help increase your perception. Although they didn't completely work for me (maybe I need more practice) I did find these exercises to be particularly enjoyable and I feel that they give real value to the book as a whole. One section that really intrigued me was 'Aura Imaging Photography' which explains how images of auras can be taken. In so many alternative healing practises there is more faith involved that the process works than evidence that it actually does. Seeing images of the aura certainly brings to life this fascinating branch of metaphysics and gives all of us who haven't unlocked the potential to see them the chance to do so. One of the aspects that I don't enjoy about books that include articles from various authors and are put together by contributing editors is that it sometimes feels more like a text book, this is particularly the case when references to other authors and experts are included. Despite my criticisms this was still an enjoyable book and has certainly made me want to learn more about this fascinating subject. |
This is the powerful story of the author's struggle with Multiple Sclerosis and how a healer's unusual prescription of mindful altruism - to 'give away 29 gifts in 29 days' - ignited her energy, her happiness, and invited more abundance into her life.
