“I love that the big beautiful zero is a central tenet of this book. What I see is a big round open door through which we can all walk on our journey toward wholeness. It’s a journey with no destination, of course, since wholeness is not a place as much as a perspective, ever-shifting. Put on your dancing shoes; this is not a book to be read propped up in your La-Z-Boy!” Claudia Schmidt, singer-songwriter

this book is beyond stunning! it saved me from deep soul eating depression and brought me to true light. I have read this over and over and each time I get something even more profound than before out of it. I highly highly recommend this book to all. it will change your life for the better forever. a must read and a most own.
What I love about spiritual/help books is that you can always refer back to them with whatever you need help with. Teen psychic is specifically for teenagers as it describes how to use your intuition, and what is changing most in your teen years. I can't think how to write this review properly as my head is so full of ideas! But it makes so much sense that I finished it on new years day as I can go into the new year with an open mind, accepting what comes into my life and making the appropriate changes of my thoughts where needed :)
I hated this, like it was a lot different from what I was expecting. a friend recommended this to me, since she said she thought I'd benefit from it etc. but all I found was the majority just, I dont know, just didnt work for me?? and the parts that did relate to me I was kind of already aware of about myself? I felt like I was reading the same thing over and over but in a slightly different way, and I feel like I learned essentially nothing.
