Review – Awakening Consciousness: A Girl’s Guide!

posted in books, movies, tv |

Awakening ConsciousnessAs a member of Parent Reviewers, I was recently given a wonderful opportunity to review the book, “Awakening Consciousness: A Girl’s Guide”. To tell you the truth, I was a bit skeptical about reading this book when it first arrived on my doorstep, but, I am willing to keep an open mind and sat down one evening with my daughter as we read through it together.

Awakening Consciousness: A Girl’s Guide is not only filled with simple, common sense methods of encouraging spiritual growth and self awareness in young ladies, but it is also a workbook filled with wonderful exercises that are simple and yet thought provoking. Many of the exercises were things that we do in our family on a regular basis and yet, reading the exercises along with my daughter allowed us to talk about it openly, something we don’t always do.

The book talks about many things including each individuals aura and maintaining a positive attitude. I found this part of the book most interesting and helpful because my daughter has a friend who has been having difficulty in finding her own purpose while my daughter is quite strong in that area. We discussed it and even talked about ways the she could help her friend by doing these same exercises with her. I think what I liked most about this book is its emphasis on being positive. Positive energy emits positive aura which will allow positive things to happen around you. Negative yields negative. We each create our own future and being positive will lead us down a positive path.

This is a short, quick read, only 96 pages.  I do recommend this book as a means of building self confidence and positive reinforcement.

    This does sound like a fantastic book. I would have benefited from it back when I was growing up. Right now there are no kids on the horizon, but once there are, I hop I’ll come across this book again :)

    Sue – I think it’s an excellent way to open the lines of communication. Even if you don’t use the exercises, it’s a way to talk about the importance of feeling positive about yourself and remaining true to yourself.
