Unconditional or 'wild' love sets us free to be who we are. In Wild Love clinical psychologist and metaphysical writer Gill Edwards reveals a deeper, more magical reality where you can break free from the 'ego prisons' of fear and guilt and start to love yourself, other people and life, unconditionally. Gill explains that your ego can short-circuit your energies and make you always look for approval, safety or control in your relationships. She explains that when we learn to enjoy unconditional wild love, we will set ourselves free to follow our dreams and our unique potential. To do this we need to change our lives from the inside out. Learn to connect with a deeper reality and become an embodied soul - loving, joyful, creative, passionate and full of gratitude. Start to say 'yes' to life instead of 'no' or 'maybe' or 'only if'. Get your energy flowing again so you connect with unconditional love and remember who you truly are. Beautifully written and inspiring.
Gill was a chartered clinical psychologist by background, and worked full-time in the National Health Service throughout the 1980s. She grew up in a haunted house, began yoga and meditation in her teens, and was on a spiritual path for 30+ years. In 1989, a mystical experience changed her life – and she resigned from the NHS to write her first book, ‘Living Magically’ (Piatkus, 1991). She trained in metaphysics and shamanism in the USA, Britain and Hawaii, and ran Living Magically workshops in the UK and abroad from 1990. Since 2001, she trained intensively in energy psychology and energy medicine. With a Diploma in Flower & Vibrational Essences, she produced her own range of Lakeland Essences. She was also a certified practitioner of Meridian & Energy Therapies, and trained in EFT (level 2), Matrix Reimprinting, TAT, Psych-K (Advanced) and Emo-Trance. She was registered as a practitioner with the AMT and AAMET. She also studied many other shamanic and energetic healing approaches – including Matrix Energetics, Reconnective Healing, the Sedona Method, the LifeLine Technique, and Donna Eden’s energy medicine. She was passionate about energy psychology and new-paradigm medicine, and believed it would transform the face of healthcare in the coming years. Gill wrote the best-selling books ‘Living Magically’, ‘Stepping Into the Magic’, ‘Pure Bliss’ and ‘Wild Love’, (Piatkus), plus a range of self-help CD’s. Her book, ‘Life Is A Gift’ was published by Piatkus in 2007. It offers a practical guide to making your dreams come true – by aligning with the flow of the cosmos. Her latest book on Conscious Medicine (2010) – was a topic of huge passion for her. She believed that all dis-ease is created by our energy-consciousness – and so can be un-created using conscious medicine. Gill lived in the heart of the English Lake District – a landscape that she loved – in a fairytale house which nestles amidst lake, woods and waterfalls, where she felt truly blessed. Her life-long focus was on expanding our consciousness: walking with a ‘foot in both worlds’, so that we release our natural state of boundless love, joy, freedom and creativity. She saw consciousness as the source of everything. Since everything Is One, she believed that as we develop more of our own potential-and move from fear to love, from struggle to joy-we also help to change the world. On November 19th 2011 Gill’s mission was complete – she made her transition into the spirit realm, where I am sure she is still joyously supporting us with modern day living.
This amazing book really turned my whole life upside-down ... all for the better! For someone who was preconditioned to live life as "a good girl, be seen but not heard" this really helped me to focus on my own needs, on living my own life of joy, as opposed to trying to be what everyone expected me to be (an impossible situation!).
Thoroughly recommend this book - essential reading!
Amazing! Best book I've read in a while.This book filled my soul! It called me. Some one who helped their allergies suggested it to me and EFT. I bought it knowing It was calling me to love myself. It affirmed everything I already knew about myself and to love my self and others unconditionally. And if it helps my skin and my emotions then why wouldn't I listen to my intuition. It taught be alot about how to stay within myself and not to let others sway me. I own my emotions. We are all connected as one and we should do what ever makes us happy without judgement or shame. We are not separate. This book opens up the possibility to a revolution that's happening within people. People are waking up, going against the status quo, against conformity and now within a Conservative government and in the society we live in, it is happening within side of us. We are love, we are the universe, we are all one, we are all connected.
I have read and enjoyed some of Gill Edwards previous books and attended one of her courses a few years ago. However, I found this one hard going. The start of the book was interesting about aiming to be happy rather than be good. The last part of the book about wild loving and accepting everything without fear or guilt or blame just seemed out of the average persons reach. I also felt that some of the book was Gill analysing why a relationship had gone wrong and how she had made sense of it. I could see what she was getting at in "Wild Love" but I felt it was not easily achievable. I enjoyed her other books more.
