Review

Even if you think that airy, gentle approaches to personal growth are not your cup of tea, Terry Lynn Taylor's Guardians of Hope is a soul-pleasing experience. While the author remains truly positive and generally upbeat, her book is definitely not fluff. . . . This book is not a theosophical treatise on cosmic hierarchies, but sometimes the most profound truths are even more effective when stated simply. And while much of the books basic information is available elsewhere, it usually lacks Taylors warmth and sweetness. . . . Guardians of Hope is not a natural for dyed-in-the-wool Fourth Way students or other fans of cold analysis, but it just may be those seekers who most need the gentleness of the angels touch.

In the soft presence of the angels we may find the strength and courage we need to face and embrace our own shadows. This beautiful little book is well worth reading. -- Whole Life Times, April 1992

If you are ready for some real spring cleaning for your soul, Guardians of Hope is the perfect book. It is a cleansing breath of fragrant spring air. Its warm gentle breezes of heartfelt advice are a balm for all the ills of your soul. After reading this book, not only do I feel cleansed, but I feel so blessed to have been introduced to a whole new cast of friends and supporters for my personal growth - angels. . . . Terry Taylor's book is a heartfelt call to learn the language of love and leave behind the language of fear. . . . Her book is a clear call to self-responsibility and true empowerment. Terry Lynn Taylor's writing is sure to strike a deep chord of healing and wholeness within you as it did me. Her wisdom and the wisdom of the angels comes through eloquently in the poetic style she has crafted. With it she is able to sidestep our critical minds and go to the heart of our souls where our hearing and understanding is not impaired. Incredible! This book is a warm, loving massage for the soul, filled with delicious, scrumptious, satisfying happiness recipes, and a gold mine of very empowering practices for healing and wholeness. -- New Frontier Magazine, May/June 1992

5.0 out of 5 stars You should get this book if you need help, September 27, 2000

By 

Frank Lloyd Jensen (Dumfries, Virginia United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Guardians of Hope: The Angels' Guide to Personal Growth (Paperback)

You should get this book if you need help. Also, anyone who wants to be helpful in this life would do well to look into this book. Terry Lynn Taylor writes so clearly and effectively. Whatever your perspective, whatever your frame of mind, she will bring you something fresh, another and new way of seeing, thinking and feeling this Great Reality. She does not preach to you, instead, she writes straightforwardly and at a level that anyone, of any "spiritual" level can relate to. I have "been there and done that, wrote the book, drew the pictures and ate the crayons while watching the video." You may also be the same. But things change, our lives change and sometimes things get so difficult for so long that, after awhile, maybe a few years, maybe a decade, you might really be stuck and then what do you do? This book is very simple, very clear and goes right to the basics. Get a clear mind. She tells you how. And she goes far beyond that. You may have heard it before, but did you forget? Did the negativities of the "outer world" throw you a few curves and smack you with the bat? It can be confusing sometimes and sometimes you can get so lost that you don't know what to do and you have forgotten that anything can be any good any more! Guardians of Hope will help you remember, or help you connect again for the first time in this life. That is what angels are for, it is what they are, it is what they do: they Help! This book can help you out, or help a friend who needs the help you want to give but somehow can't. The main thing is to Love and Trust and ask for help. It will come. You won't get grinded through a guilt trip and you won't be inflicted by arrogance, instead you will feel Peace again and you will learn how to regain and develop Peace in your mind and in your heart. And before long, sooner or later, you really will know and feel the angels in your life. Then you can go "Duh" and have a good healthy laugh! But what if you or someone you love is so far gone that Love and Trust seem to be lost and hopelessness seems to be in control? Try this book out; read it yourself and/or give it to the person for whom you are so concerned. Guardians of Hope is good for anyone of any religious belief, Christians and all others. This book is good for even those who have no religion. This book is good for anyone who needs help or who wants to be helpful. You will understand about angels and begin to learn and change and grow and feel really glad to be alive. Your angels are waiting and they are so patient and so eager! Even if you have never been "spiritual" before all you have to do is give this book a try and give the exercises a try. Angels are for real (this Universe is Vast!)and they exist to help everyone, everywhere, all the time and all you have to do is ask: Trust and Love will come once you experience angels. This book will help you to work with them instead of negating their work and negating yourself. Good Life to you and may you find what you are looking for and when you get it, share the joy within your smile!

This book blends beautifully with the rest of her books. I have just so enjoyed her work, I must sound like a babbling kid. Actually, hers are the books I reach for over and over and actually do not know how many times I have read them. Truly treasures.
