Amazon.co.uk Review
Like Don Miguel Ruiz, author of the best-selling book The Four Agreements, author Susan Gregg teaches readers how the ancient Toltec tradition can apply to life in the 21st century. For those who don't know, the Toltecs were an ancient race of people who flourished in Southern Mexico around 800 AD. "They were also a secret society dedicated to preserving the knowledge of the 'ancient ones,' who were great spiritual masters", according to Gregg, who goes on to explain that the Toltec tradition is a way of seeing beyond our perceived sense of reality and into an unlimited world of possibility.
Since Gregg is a dedicated teacher of this exciting (and yes, even faddish) Toltec tradition, she emphasises basic tools and specific examples rather than obscure parables and philosophies. Chapter titles such as, "Letting Go of the Past", "Finding a Happiness that Lasts" and "Where To Go For Support", sound more like self-help chapters than enticing discussions of mystical beliefs, but that is Gregg's point--why make this reality-blowing tradition obscure and inaccessible when its whole purpose is that of spiritual empowerment? As a push-up-your-sleeves-and-get-started primer, it can't be beat. But if you are looking for more lyrical or pensive prose, turn to Don Miguel or Don Juan. --Gail Hudson --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
Product Description
When Ellen DeGeneres appeared on Oprah and spoke about the profound changes that certain Toltec principles have made in her life, Dr. Susan Gregg suddenly found herself a beneficiary of that marvelous book-selling phenomena, the Oprah effect. Dr. Gregg, author of two previous books on shamanism, was deep in the process of writing her latest book. Now in paperback, "The Toltec Way" is a book created specifically to bring this ancient wisdom to readers in a way that is easily understood and that makes it applicable to modern life. The gift of the Toltec is in being able to transcend ordinary human awareness and achieve personal freedom. Simply put, personal freedom is the ability to choose how to act rather than react to the events in your life. The three Toltec Masteries of Awareness, Transformation, and Intent are the key to transcending your limitations and experiencing yourself as the creator of your life. This book is about change and changing yourself. It emphasizes the need to take personal responsibility for the choices in your life. Included in each chapter are exercises and guided visualizations. And, because the wisdom to be learned is often best encountered indirectly, you will find that some of the most important knowledge is hidden in the parablelike stories that are scattered throughout the book.

Format:Paperback
I have been looking for a follow up to the Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle, and this one worked for me. (It does not necessarily mean that it will work for you - but read the first 40 pages to make up your mind). It has encouraged me forward on the already established path. I could not say more!

There is plenty of Toltec
7 July 2001
Format:Hardcover
This book has truly changed my life - it is practical and full of wonderful tools. I read all of CC books about Don Juan and loved the stories but was clueless how to apply the philosophy to my life - this book showed me how. But there is a price - you do have to actually do the work - this is not a book you simply read and put on your shelf - it is a book that will stay with you for a long, long time.
I'm from Missouri and I am a show me kind of person - this book showed me how to let go of my limitations, my fears, and connect with myself in a profound way - the writing took time but as she says in five years you'll be five years older - how do you think you will wish you spent your time.
Susan is a wonderful guide if personal freedom is your desired destination. I had a few questions and when I e mailed her she responded with gentle wisdom and warmth. I have already bought copies for all my friends.
Give yourself a gift and while you're at it by one for a friend.

You can change your life!
13 Sep 2000
Format:Hardcover
I just finished reading THE TOLTEC WAY, and I'm stunned by the vast amount of information that is packed into only 240 pages. It is a complete roadmap for anyone to transform their life completely. Of course, it is only 240 pages, however the journey may take years to complete. But, so what? It ought to be worth the effort to find happiness and freedom. Dr. Gregg has written a great book!
