Good info but too much private life,
By
This review is from: Finding Your Way In A Wild New World: Four steps to fulfilling your true calling (Paperback)
I saw this in Watkins and as I liked Steering by Starlight I had a browse and bought it. I guess that makes me a member of the Team (defined in the book).I find the way that she puts together information, taking basic building blocks from other people, simplifying them and giving them a catchy title oddly compelling, and actually very powerful. What I don't like about her books is she provides far too much detail about her private life in a way that doesn't provide anything that helps you integrate her lessons. This time it is repeated visits to the Londolozi nature reserve. You could easily edit the book down to two thirds the size. The book is about manifestation, and there are four parts to it that build up: wordlessness, oneness, imagination and forming. Wordlessness is the same as stillness, ie getting into a quiet state (with perhaps more emphasis on the non verbal), oneness is feeling your connection to what she calls the Energy Internet (catchy title), imagination is imagining what you want to happen and forming it is bringing it into the material world. She uses such exercises as bending spoons (not tried that yet bought some in the 99p shop), the catch up exercise from Month Roberts, shaking to remove stress and Les Fermis Open Focus (also in Steering by Starlight. I though the explanation of and use of the catch up was very good, as she showed it was also a principle of manifestation, you let money catch up with your for example. Depending on where you are on the path you might find this book very useful or a bit basic. Definitely need your highlighter though. Incidentally the cover of the US version looks 10 times better.

Courageous and compelling,
By
This review is from: Finding Your Way In A Wild New World: Four steps to fulfilling your true calling (Paperback)
I've read all Martha Beck's previous books and know first hand what a skilful coach she is.This approach is something else altogether.Martha Beck moves into more"spiritual" territory,inspired by some of her own experiences,especially in Africa.She identifies how we can enter the deep energy field behind everyday life.There we are in contact and resonance with everyone else on the "team" as she calls the menders and wayfinders amongst us and everyone we have ever come into contact with.I was then expecting her to move into"Law of Attraction"spiel but she didn't.She suggests ways of working with events,people and creatures who are about to happen to us.Above all,it's about connecting with your own unique nature.Wonderful and helpful at the same time!

Brave and transformative,

This review is from: Finding Your Way In A Wild New World: Four steps to fulfilling your true calling (Paperback)
Martha Beck's previous books Finding Your North Star and Steering by Starlight have already been the catalyst and ongoing guides for real change for the better in my life. This one takes it to the next level again and it's interesting too to see the development of Martha's own thinking, or way of living. To me it's like layers are peeled off and actually with each book 'the process' gets simpler and simpler. Not easier to put into practice, maybe, but simpler and fewer steps. And this feels like getting closer to the truth about life.In contrast to the North Star especially, now there's almost no analysis and planning you need to do to find your right life; less work to do. According to Finding Your Way..., and what my own experience seems to affirm, you just sense and pick the right path each moment. The book comes close to being the 'How To' companion to Eckhart Tolle's The Power of Now. The book is bravely written sharing very intimate and personal experiences, but in a way that feels open and appropriate, not exhibitionist. While you could have made it a much shorter 'guide', I enjoyed and found moving and inspirational the stories about Martha's own journey of discovery of the reality she's talking about. This book may not be immediately accessible if you're not familiar with the spiritual ideas, such as energies and 'everything is connected', or have never experienced something like that in your life. But even so you'll probably enjoy this engagingly written book, and find something that strikes a chord. I believe this will be a milestone book for the new spiritualism. Apart from being a revelation and transformative in itself, it makes sense of all the main concepts and ideas in that field, such as 'creating what you imagine', being present, being one with nature, listening to your body etc. In my view, this book gives the definitive, no nonsense but profound, answer to pretty much all spiritual questions and how to live fully! It has taken immense courage to write, and will take as much courage for any of us to put into practice. Once you've truly had enough of being unhappy, you'll probably do that.
