5.0 out of 5 stars Pathways to a Radiant Self, October 15, 2003

By 

Kristi L. Lucariello (Atlanta, GA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Pathways to a Radiant Self (Paperback)

A great self discovery tool unlike most self-help books out there. It is a comprehnsive guide to the ancient Indian system of chakras. Each chapter contains indepth information about a chakra including revealing assessments to help you begin to make your own body mind connections, questions for journal work, and even meditations that help you engage with your own energy. Not only have I used the book as a tool for myself, I also use it with my coaching clients. This is NOT a one time read. You'll keep this book by your side as you learn how to use the chakras to help heal and develop yourself in mind, body and spirit.

5.0 out of 5 stars It will change your life!, October 17, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Pathways to a Radiant Self (Paperback)

Using this workbook and the activities it offers has changed my life dramatically. In the past two years, I have gone through this book six or more times. Everytime I uncover another layer of lessons and changes to be made.

Using the model of the chakra system provides insights that are right on target when combined with by body's sensations as basic directional information. I have seen more abundance in my business, been able to work in the FLOW of life, achieved more balance, opened myself to deeper love and connections, spoken up and asked for what I want and need, and been able to remember my dreams and learn from them for the first time.

All these changes are a result of this material and working the activities Kathy Pike suggests to shift the individual chakra energy and open the system to more movement both up and down. I did not have to spend time and money to understand the issues or problems in my head. I simply noticed and understood my body and what it was telling me and began doing intentional activities which moved the energy.

If you do healing work and you need to understand the body part of that work, this book is the ticket.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well worth the reading, October 8, 2003

By 

Betty Haverfield (Dallas, TX) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Pathways to a Radiant Self (Paperback)

The Pathways to a Radiant Self book is a great tool for anyone who wants to know themselves at a deep level. Kathy Pike helps the average person understand the power of the seven energy centers (or chakras) and how to put these resources into action for their well being. She not only helps the reader understand where each energy center is and how it manifests itself, she provides a variety of tools that the reader can use for their own emotional and physical healing. The reader has assessments to measure how their energy is currently around each of the chakras, meditaions for aligning that energy and journal work for continuing their growth and awareness. It is a very user-friendly book that I find myself exploring over and over again.
