Reviews

[Vishnu Priya · Rating 3 out of 5]

I didn't quite know what to expect from the book as the title wasn't clear to me. The book talks of our energy like currency and how most of us are spending more than we can keep up with and explains several ways to balance the energy in ourselves by connecting to the Universe. Although there's a lot of exercise mentioned in the book, I'd have liked to read more explanations behind the exercises and how it impacts our human experience on Earth.

The book contains a lot of Tao exercises that you can practice in order to meditate and chanel your mind and energy on different parts of your body. A very fine idea found in the book is to learn to love each part of your body and send love to it every once in a while. The book, also talks a little about how it might be possible that the universe is in fact a cell for a larger univers as we might also be made by more universes and so on.

More than 50% of the book is focused on exercises. Should be sold as a study book.

This one was not nearly as good as his other books. Lots of breathing exercises that seemed very similar to each other and way too many funky drawings.
