  <default_description>When it comes to creating the life you want, Shakti Gawain literally wrote &lt;I&gt;the&lt;/I&gt; book. Now considered a classic, &lt;I&gt;Creative Visualization&lt;/I&gt; teaches readers how to use their imaginations to manifest their deepest desires. In a straight-talking narrative, Gawain uses the first part to cover the basics, with chapters such as &quot;How to Visualize,&quot; &quot;Affirmations,&quot; and &quot;Creative Visualization Only Works for the Good.&quot; Once she shows readers how visualization actually works, Gawain moves on to loftier discussions, such as &quot;Contacting Your Higher Self,&quot; &quot;Meeting Your Guide,&quot; &quot;Setting Goals,&quot; and &quot;Treasure Maps.&quot;&lt;p&gt;  Fear not; this isn't a spiritual-lightweight book for people with a severe case of the &quot;gimmes.&quot; Gawain has her priorities in the right place, and she cautions readers that creative visualization will not serve greed or shallow-minded thinking. For example, she discourages the cycle of trying to have more money, so you can do what you want in life, so you will be happier. &quot;The way it actually works is the reverse,&quot; she explains. &quot;You must first be who you really are, then do what you need to do, in order to have what you want.&quot; Yet she also writes an excellent chapter on letting go of the misguided guilt that inhibits readers from becoming truly prosperous. &lt;I&gt;--Gail Hudson&lt;/I&gt;</default_description>
