Experts agree: we are on the verge of a huge shift in consciousness, starting with the way we perceive and use energy in our lives. If you've been practicing the law of attraction faithfully and are still not seeing the object of your desires, you might be missing a key piece of the puzzle. When you make the connection and get "in the flow," you will be surprised at how quickly things start to fall into place. Shift your own consciousness now to be the start of the much-needed economic turnaround!

With a historical and practical perspective that will increase your understanding of energy itself, "Wealth from Within" bridges the gap between consciousness and visualization/manifestation. Straightforward and simple to understand and apply, this book will help you connect with your own energy supply to get back "in the flow."


I picked this book up because Review

What I liked the Most? The writing style

What I liked the Least? Some of the comments in the book - do this because this famous person said so.
Alicia Silverstone = vegan
Oprah = Spirit channel playlist
Tiger Woods = Daily Meditation

Review:Okay I'm confused - I'm a seeker and I am constantly looking for the next level in my life. And this book was supposed to be the missing piece of the "Secret" puzzle unlocking the door to how to make your life better/fuller/richer. But that's not what I got from reading this book. Now don't get me wrong - if you want a crash course in various meditation or visualization techniques so you can try the several ones provide to find the one that works for you and some people need that. For me - it was a little less than likeable, maybe it's because I am already past the simple techniques listed here.

Recommended to: Someone needing a crash course

Best Quote: "Maybe the people who say these things don't eat enough meat to be grounded." I was absolutely beside myself when I read this.

What I liked the Most? The exercises designed to help you get in touch with yourself.

What I liked the Least? Random disjointed quotes. For me they were distracting.

Review: Dr Sinor also does not believe that recovery should be forced upon anyone - as noted by her comment “Each individual must proceed through his\her life discoveries, or in therapeutic intervention at one’s own rate with one’s own sense of how things are and with one’s own resolutions.” And so she creatd the blueprint for empowering yourself by working with body, mind, emotions, and spirit. Now this sounds a bit like lunacy, connect all of the "aspects" of oneself - but it does lead to healing, holisticly. She encourages the person in recovery to proceed at their own pace for healing, don't rush.

This book teaches you how to get in touch with your inner child in order to release negative emotions. To truly live in the moment - you must be willing to let go of the past.

You could really tell that Barbara Sinor, PhD, has professional & personal experience in dealing in this type of recovery, as she uses self-disclosure to present some very powerful examples about her own healing.
