Book Description

April 6, 1999
It's one thing to believe in miracles, it's another thing to make them happen--

No one knows this better than the high-school-educated and self-made Cristina Carlino, who created two of America's most celebrated health and wellness companies by following her path to the rainbow.

And now you can learn how to find your path to the rainbow by using the seven-step program created by Carlino, the CEO of philosophy®. Based on ancient wisdom popularized by Caroline Myss's Anatomy of the Spirit, Carlino explains how the body's seven spiritual energy centers can be used to realize your unlimited potential (as Carlino puts it, "We are all M.I.P.s--Miracles In Progress"). By using the rainbow as a metaphor, she guides you through the seven steps and teaches you the key lessons hidden within each color; red: self-reliance; orange: self-care; yellow: self-worth; green: self-love; blue: self-expression; indigo: self-exploration; and violet: selflessness.

In addition to the seven steps, the rainbow connection will help you discover:

Your purpose: establishing your needs vs. your wants
Your roadblocks: dealing with self-denial
Your roadmap: exploring the seven colors of the rainbow
Your fuel: how positive energy enables you
Your traveling companion: taking the hand of your divine child
Your traveling essentials: incorporating Mother Nature into your daily routine
Your daily prayers: meditation
Your destination: the House of Miracles

As an added bonus, a deck of affirmation cards, a series of questionnaires, and space for journal entries are included, to help you realize that you are the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, and the power to create the life you want is just a rainbow away--

The Rainbow Connection explores the connection between the seven colors of the rainbow and our personal state of being. In the tradition of other books of spiritual nourishment such as Simple Abundance, the reader, through the use of affirmations, meditation, and journal entries, will learn how to tap into the unlimited potential and higher power that governs our universe.

The book consists of ten chapters: a chapter called "A Colorful Story," which describes the basics of energy and how it relates to color; an instructional chapter describing three methods of how to use the book to transform your energy; seven color chapters with explanatory text followed by the question/journal section; and a maintenance chapter on keeping the "Rainbow" energy in your life on a daily basis. Also included are a personal Rainbow chart and removable perforated color cards with instructional affirmations and meditations. -->

5.0 out of 5 stars Pure inspiration: a pot of gold awaits the thoughtful reader, April 8, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Rainbow Connection: How to Use Color and Energy to Transform Your Life (Hardcover)
Ms. Carlino provides an almost mystical insight into our most personal thoughts. Not only are Ms. Carlino's words inspirational, the author provides examples and tools that help the reader work through a process of self-understanding and self-improvement. The imagery provided by the seven colors of the rainbow serves to underscore the differences each of us have in measuring the importance of work, play, family, and God in our daily lives. At the same time, the rainbow underscores our common need to keep them all in balance if we are to live happy and productive lives. It is only through a merging of these colors that we are able to truly fulfilled.

The Rainbow Connection offers something of value to everyone who has the pleasure of reading it, regardless of age or background. Ms. Carlino speaks to the importance of our spiritual needs and how we must attend to them if we are to be complete human beings. The message is clear: don't just read The Rainbow Connection, act on it. The author shows us how.

This is a must read for anyone who cares enough about themself to want to grow healthy in mind and in body. The attentive reader will recognize the author as an immediate and caring friend.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is an inspiring Book!, July 3, 2006
This review is from: Rainbow Connection: How to Use Color and Energy to Transform Your Life (Hardcover)
This book invites you to take responsibility for your own life. It helps you to see how past hurts influence the negative choices we make in our lives in the present. By learning how to forgive and love, who we are right now, taking God as our partner; is all part of the healing journey. The workbook pages are nice. It's introspective and spiritual but people of all faiths can read this book..it is not for "one" religious faith. It's really univeral to all people.
