Publisher Description
From the best-selling author of Super Attractor, Happy Days and The Universe Has Your Back
'Stylish, straight-talking and switched on... her tell-it-like-it-is tactics are attracting a new audience.'
Sunday Times Style magazine
In Spirit Junkie, Gabrielle Bernstein shares the story of her spiritual journey and shows you how you, too, can overcome the fears that paralyse you and manifest the greatest joy in your life.
Before she became an international bestselling author and teacher, Gabrielle Bernstein kept a journal of self-loathing, self-doubt and calorie consumption for more than twenty years. That all changed when she discovered A Course in Miracles, which taught her that much of what she feared in life was not frightening at all and, in many cases, not even real.
Bernstein guides you through the life-changing lessons that she has lived and learned in three parts:
'The Detour into Fear' explains how our minds go wrong and why we become accustomed to fearful ways of being.
'The Answer' provides the necessary tools for reconditioning our minds back to peace and joy.
'The Miracle' helps you maintain your happiness and share it with the world.
By understanding and changing our perceptions, resentments will release, hang-ups will melt away and a renewed faith in joy will be reignited.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Bernstein's talent for marketing herself through media coverage, speaking engagements, and her mentoring Web site is apparent in this volume. Bernstein (Add More ~ing to Your Life) puts her scars up front, describing the "tiny mad ideas," or illusions, that made her a drug- and relationship-addicted narcissist and the changes that came with gratitude, forgiveness, meditation, prayer, and surrendering to her inner guide, which she calls her "~ing." Some readers may be skeptical about Bernstein's experiences of "synchronicity," but most will appreciate her confessions of continued wrangling with the "ego tornado." Bernstein pitches her reflections and exercises toward Gen Y readers, but by emphasizing inner peace and emotional stability, she broadens the book's appeal to anyone who, like Bernstein, has decided that the only option is to "put down the practical and pick up the spiritual."
