"Just another self help book," some would say. To me this is a little gem and has impacted my life greatly in the past few weeks! It is almost like magic and reinforces the idea that we can live our life to our fullest potential. This book will get anyone who is stuck between a rock and a hard place or has hit rock bottom, back on their feet, if not ready to fly.Martha starts with "THE END", her idea behind this approach is that when you seek to fulfill your destiny the best way to succeed is to begin at the end. She guides you through several processes to clean and clear your mind. "Digging out of the Dungeon" for example entails a rigorous trashing of false beliefs. "The Ring of Fire" takes this exercise to the next level, by leaning into the fire and basically burning more "emotional trash". She steers you through each emotional process towards your core of peace.
Martha is very funny and sensitive, she shares many personal stories to illustrate her teachings. Just as I started to read it again, I began to experience the result of finding my "soul's referred occupation", last week I received a $2000 scholarship for a 3 day workshop Publishing and Writing. Martha: "I exist in perpetual creative response to whatever is present."
Martha calls the inner restrictive voice a "lizard" and asks her clients to picture their reptile vividly. May I introduce you to my little green lizard called Bo, when she's afraid I don't have enough money she cries BOO!
"By the time you finish this book, you should be able to identify and dissolve most of your mind clouds that keep you from seeing your own North Star." Even if you are not a self-help book fan, this might be the first self-help book you'll enjoy reading. Steering by Starlight is not for the faint at heart but for those that believe in the magic of life.
"The world is re-created in every instant of time, and this moment is always your life's beginning." (from her friend Marianna)
Be well, Mo
