The writing is very abstract. While she tries to turn Wisdom, Love and other attributes into physical bowls, the book still lacks concrete details. Each chapter begins with an overly long (yawn) boring poem. At times the chapters read like a religious testimony. God did this for me and God did that for me.
Some paragraphs go nowhere. They have a main point, but no support. Just more abstract words strung together.
The personal stories the author tells are as boring as the strings of abstract words.
As an experiment I tried to write in my journal about topics like prayer and meditation. These should be easier than wisdom and love and acceptance. They are tough to write about even for a page.
Some of her material is worth sharing. I liked the healing exercises. I learned from some of the bowls. But I did not enjoy the reading. This is not a good writer.
