I first heard about this book from Dr. Christiane Northrup and since, it keeps reappearing as a recommendation from others. I am reading it for a second time with a telegathering Mastermind group and find it just as delicious, if not moreso, the second time through. The premise of the book is that we tend to self-sabotage our lives when we start having more success, joy and fulfillment than we think ourselves worthy of receiving. It reminds me of Marianne Williamson’s famous quote ~ My deepest fear is not that I am inadequate. My deepest fear is that I am powerful beyond measure. It’s our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. I ask myself “who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually who am I not to be? I am a child of God. My playing small does not serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around me. I am meant to shine, as children do. I was born to make manifest the glory of God that is within me. It’s not just in me; it’s in everyone. As I let my own light shine, I unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As I am liberated from my own fear, my presence automatically liberates others.
I highly recommend this book. If you have read it, please click on Comments above and tell me what you think of it. It has helped me shift aspects of myself that no longer serve me. For that, I am extremely grateful.
