If you are a woman and know a little about energy, chakras, vibrations, auras, meditations, and spirituality, then “Awakening Consciousness: A Woman’s Guide!” is for you.  I feel it’s a book that would work well for any woman contemplating on expanding her wisdom and power through sources within herself. Thre workbook is simple, concise, and certainly not overwhelming for a beginner.

Robin Marvel presents to her reader ways to get in touch with the vibrational energy within, discover the aura, understand chakras, give self empowerment, recognize the messages in dreams, and much more. In her short and summarizing explanations, Marvel encourages the reader to expand her horizons and experiment with new concepts.  As well, she gives the reader the opportunity to write notes, messages, affirmations, or whatever needs to be written in the book itself.  In the end this book becomes a personal journal as well as an exercise venue.

All along during my reading and exercise journey I kept thinking that this book would work great in a group setting and sure enough, in Chapter 16, Marvel suggests just that. She also encourages using a talking stick in the group as well as how to make one.  I do believe that awakening consciousness is a very personal endeavor; however, I also believe that we need support from other women that have the same goals and aspirations to even take ourselves to a higher state of consciousness.

“Awakening Consciousness: A Woman’s Guide!,” by Robin Marvel, is one of those little books that you will always remember and keep in the back of your mind when you hear of someone wanting to delve into their consciousness, awaken it and take it to higher levels. This will be the book you will recommend because I certainly do.
