Higher Love: Everything you need to manifest more love in your life
Dating, if we're not doing it with intention, can be something we dive into with little clarity. We don't check the water's depth, surrounding currents or our ability to stay afloat. Before we know it, we're in the middle of the sea with nothing but a life vest, a whistle and none of those fish that everyone swore were waiting for you just below the surface.
But what if dating didn't have to be like this? What if there was a way to do it differently that had nothing to do with playing games, pretending to be someone you're not or playing the supporting actor to someone else's starring role?
Enter Jordanna Levin, bestselling author of manifestation bible Make It Happen, who's been there and knows a thing or two about the search for love. This is a book about dating, yes, but at its essence, it's about figuring out who you are, what lights you up and how you want to feel in love, whether you're testing the water for the first time, diving back in after a break or a long-time swimmer. Higher Love takes dating and flips it on its head, inviting you to get curious about the role you play in your own love story and helping you strengthen your personal vibration to attract the love that you deserve and are oh so worthy of.

I love reading, and have read hundreds of books inthe psychology/spirituality/self-help genre.
Rarely do I dislike a book - even the ones that are hard to read usually hold value and provide some insight, transformation, or inspiration.
I've read both Jordanna's books, and found something to be "off" about them. I wondered if it was the writing style, the personality of the author or if herbooks are more suited to a beginner, but reading reviews and discussing with others I see I'm not alone.
Jordanna states the obvious, makes loads of assumptions, and limiting beliefs run rampant and transparent through the book. There is also a subtle undercurrent of spiritual narcissim, which explains why it feels off. This book states the obvious, includes almost nothing about manifesting (despite the cover), and somehow devolves into a book about dating app etiquette.
I finished the book, scanning the pages for value.
There were 5 tidbits/exercises that were interesting, but the rest was arduous to get through,much like the second half of her first book.
I personally would not recommend it, unless you are a very certain type of person in a vety particular situation.
If you're intuition calls you to it, give it a go.
Otherwise, your time is best spend elsewhere.

I recently discovered journal therapy and had started my own journal albeit very grumpily. Despite being my own idea I wasn't doing a great deal with it. Whilst reading this book though I've ended up writing reams. There's been some soul searching, recognising patterns of behaviour, seeing how my parents relationships affected my thinking, seeing how other people affected my thinking and some very eye opening A-ha moments.
If this book had turned up on my to-do list 10 years ago I would maybe have read it, said it was ok and then dismissed it and not done any exercises. I think sometimes you have to be in the right mind frame with self help books and me 10 years ago was a very different, closed off person. Having at least attempted the journal this year I was open to healing and so every chapter resonated and I did all the exercises even the ones that were painful to deal with. Those A-ha moments have really made me think.
The book is full of warmth and humour and advice as well as having you take stock of the past and letting it go. Forgiveness is key and rewriting your love story (view on love). I would highly recommend this one

“Attract the love you are oh-so-worthy of”
Dating, the awful D word that for most people brings out copious amounts of anxiety and over thinking. Am I doing it right, and I doing it wrong, am I being too judgemental or am I being too closed off! Wether your just dipping your feet back into the dating pool or you are diving head first into the deep end there’s something in here for everyone.
Jordanna doesn’t sugar coat dating in the age of dating apps and bares her hard truths to help others learn from her life experiences and in-depth research.
Part one is about you, discovering your values and strengthening your vibrations. The exercises in this part was extremely valuable. Part 2 covers different types of love and developing your self worth. Part 3 was my favourite, learning to date differently. Dating isn’t what it used to be and the go to guide for landing a hot date.
@jordannalevin thank you for putting this book into the universe. It’s so reassuring to know that I’m not alone.
“Don’t ever let your hope, worth of validation rest in the hands of someone else’s unwillingness to choose you”

“Your intuition will always guide you to an experience for your growth.”
This is intended to be a self-help books for singles, for how to find higher love. Not just someone to warm your bed, but who you can see spending the rest of your life with.
However, Jordan’s never really gets there. There’s something quite reserved about her writing. It’s in the way she attempts to divulge lessons learned from previous relationships but never goes far enough. Or how she wishes to rip into dated dating advice from the 90’s but ends up adopting the same style of advice towards the end of the book.
“If you’re not willing to let something die, you’re not giving yourself full permission to live.”
One main gem from this is spinning the emphasis from searching outside of oneself to working on yourself. She caveats this advice with the disclaimer that you don’t have to be perfect - having done “the work” - to be worthy of a partner, but I like how she reroutes the good and bad to a reflection of you; because who you attract and settle for is inevitably a mirror to your self-worth.
“You need to be able to love yourself in the way that you wish to give and receive love.”

The exact book I needed, at the exact time I needed it. I loved Jordanna's first book on manifesting with her practical approach and this second book focused purely on love was just as fantastic. A well balanced check in and growth experience for those of us in the dating world.

I just wasn't connecting with this book. maybe it's the authors tone but something just wasn't working for me. Pity cause I thought this would be a great read. There were parts I just skimmed over due to feeling like they dragged on too long or I didn't really care for the authors little comments in the brackets.

Firstly I am not the designed audience. I’m married and only read this because it was recommended by a friend, she loved the part about energy vampires.
The first half of the book is actually really applicable in general all about finding your personal vibration, working out what increases the vibration and bring more of that into your life and what decreases your vibration and should be limited in your life.
She discusses energy vampires, people with lower vibrations who feed off of our high vibrations and discussions around how the more true we are too ourselves the more we will attract those similar leading to more worth while and long lasting connections.
She had great points about external validation and comparison.
The second half of the book is about dating which as a married woman doesn’t apply much to me anymore and therefore I wasn’t as interested in it.
My three star review is because the main points are be yourself, don’t take things personally and put up boundaries which to be honest people do already know it’s just really hard to do, I don’t know that this book actually helps you do it, not matter the fan-dangled language. I would say the ideas around online dating were really applicable and might be worth a try.
However take that with a grain of salt as it come from the perspective of someone who has never done online dating.

Really great advice for how to really focus on loving yourself BEFORE finding a partner. I can see how this book would resonate with people! I only gave it three stars because a) it’s heavily focussed on the dating game and that’s not really relevant to my situation and b) the narrative voice is very young and at times I felt I was taking advice from my little sister. Still, I do think the lessons here are valuable, so don’t be put off by my opinions!!

A quiet interesting book about dating with intentions and about setting our own vibrations and love ourselves straight before venturing into the world of love and relationships.
I found the first part more interesting, as more focused on self love, while the second is filed with tips on various types of dating, on stages of thereof, but always with a positive and very funny and witty tone.

I took my time reading this one. I enjoyed it. There were a number of personal experiences Jordanna wrote about which I think contributed to a lot of the book, but there was also a fun element about it too. I recommend it for anyone that feels like they’re stuck when it comes to trying to navigate the dating scene. (It’s still terrifying, avoid xoxo)

After reading @jordannalevin ‘s other book, ‘make it happen’ I was really excited to finally read her new book thanks to my local library. I had placed a hold on this book for quite some time, and coincidentally it came just before Valentines Day 💕
I ended up listening to majority of this book as an audiobook via @borrowbox which I really enjoyed. Overall it only took 2-3 days for me to smash this one out, as I was hooked on Jordanna’s writing and delivery of the audiobook. Personally I think there is something really special about the author narrating the audiobook 🥰
Although I’m not single or looking for a relationship, I found so many of these topics really interesting and relatable. I think this book would be perfect for someone wanting to read some more self developmental books, or even a gift for a friend! 💫

This was a beautifully written book that has certainly helped me to determine my personal vibration and made me more confident to get myself back on the dating scene with more self-awareness and worth than ever before.

I wanted to like it because I love Jordanna but it felt a bit empty of advice. I did like her points about working on your own vibration first and that was all I got out of it personally (SORRY!!). I think her podcast that was launched with the book gave a lot more value than the book itself.

I love Jordana and I really loved the podcast that went with this book. I feel like I got more out of the podcast than I did with this book.

Quirky approach to finding love. Her first book was much better

Good for some light 'distracted' reading. Some helpful tips and idea's.

I found a free eBook copy AND a free audio book of this in my library, so I worked through this book, and the various exercises both physically reading and listening.
It must be hard for anyone to write a new self-help book and create new ideas that haven’t been discussed before. It’s a nice little read, and it does have the generic topics that most self-help books offer, but for me, the exercises are what really made this book stand out. I had so much fun with some of them, lighting a candle, opening a bottle of wine and just journaling away my feelings is at times exactly what I need.
It is a beautifully written book, which defiantly had me analysing my own feelings and vibrations towards the world, towards myself and what my idea of romantic love is. I am giving it three stars as some sections felt too long and sometimes the advice didn’t resonant with me, but I did enjoy the book and the message it portrays.
