Her books and card packs have sold over one million copies worldwide.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Insights and Techniques, September 3, 2000

By	perla "Being. Differently." (Austin, TX USA) - See all my reviews

Just what I was looking for!

Not only a book about Doreen's life, beliefs and path but also one that shares many effective lightworker/healer techniques that have helped me.

Techniques include working on one's own issues and cleaning one's own energy/chakras, centering oneself, the purpose of Creation and the Universe, work with angels, work with spirit guides, mediumship and spirit releasement, working with healing others and healing the earth. Doreen gives techniques on keeping your work pure and making sure you are aligned with Love and Divine Purpose.

Doreen stresses the importance of being aware of your ego that may get in the way of your work as a lightworker or healer, and then also offers suggestions on how to overcome the voice of your ego. I cannot tell you how much more pure her teachings are to me only because I have been turned off by some books of those who teach spirituality and healing but whose teachings are tainted strongly with the writers' egos (i.e., religious bias, feminist opinions or just plain self-vanity). This book is for those who want to tap in their mystical powers for service to others(Love) and not for themselves(Ego).

This book has taken away my lingering fears about the spirit world, tapping into my personal power and meditating more deeply because I learned about praying to angels and spirit guides for guidance and protection and to create Pure intentions and thoughts.

For some time now, although I was not born a psychic, people, even total strangers, would confide in me and I had knack for offering them unconditional love and advice. When I finally fully realized that I had such a gift I came to the knowledge that I wanted to be a healer. Although, I had already been on a path of self-discovery that included meditation, prayer and community service, I did not yet know how to go about the next steps until I found this book. Of course, this book is not an end in itself, and does not pretend to be. It will open doors for you to further your work, creativity and self-exploration.

A wonderful "handbook" for those "first-timers" with the desire to serve humankind with their inherent gifts.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful guidebook for spiritually-minded healers!, June 19, 2000

By	Jenny Cohen "Jenny Cohen" (La Jolla, CA USA) - See all my reviews

Dr. Doreen Virtue provides excellent information for those on a spiritual path in her book "The Lightworker's Way." We are able to learn more about ourselves and the spiritual realm by reading of the experiences Doreen had while awakening to her Divine life purpose. There is also a comprehensive guide to conducting spiritual healing sessions, and imperative information on healing your own life as an essential part of healing the world.

As a clairaudient, I am able to hear the angels give me specific page numbers to flip to, and they always contain information that is beneficial to my current path. The angels have been having me use this book as a guide and learning tool for several months, and it had been highly beneficial for me. I recommend it to anyone who has an interest in healing themselves, other people, and the planet.

5.0 out of 5 stars Within this book is a wealth of information, December 15, 2004

By	C. Nesbitt "spiritual book reader" (Atlanta, GA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The first half of the book is Doreen's life story. It is very interesting. The second half of the book is about different healing modalities and exercises. The forgiveness exercises I found to be extremely helpful. It seemed that everytime I picked up this book, there was a message just for me in the words... It was so awesome-- like my guides were communicating to me through this book. Overall, it was an easy read and jammed packed with useful information.
