"Words are a sacred tool and must be honored as such. When used carefully, words have magical healing properties. When used to judge, to hate, or to separate, words are deadly. The words you will be using in this workbook are your basic tools for healing on this journey. Treat them with respect. Honor your words." ~ Lynn V. Andrews

Loved the books - every one of them. Treat them as mythology or as absolute truth. It makes no difference, the larger truth is as real to me as the Cosmic Christ. And to me, that is real! Beautifully written, loved her relationships with her spiritual teachers. For me, these books were real medicine, true spiritual healing.

Reading this, I kept forgetting it was an autobiographical account of one woman's search for inner truth... Magickal and mystical, yet so incredibly real, Lynn's story is easy to get lost in. A must read for any woman (or man) seeking to find balance and truth beyond the confines of dogma and duality.

Although I question the validity of this non-fictional autobiography, I absolutely loved this book. Perhaps I’m not quite ‘there’ yet... how I can across this book and what it has opened my mind to is yet another mind blowing step in this path I’m being drawn down.

Interesting story of how a woman learns more about herself through spiritual practice.

One of the less compelling books in this series, but still too good to stop reading.

Such a beautiful book! I felt like I was right there with Lynn experiencing all the stories she shared firsthand. Such a beautiful well written book. I highly recommend especially for women.

THIS IS MY FAVORITE...NOT SO MUCH BECAUSE OF THE STORY...EVEN THOUGH LYNN TELLS A LOVELY AND POTENT TALE...BUT BECAUSE OF THE THEME...THE SOLAR WIND HORSES. THEY ARE AKIN TO THE TIBETAN AND NEPALI PRAYER FLAG HORSES...AND PEGASUS. IF YOU STUDY THE MOVEMENT OF ELECTRONS IN A SOLAR WIND AND THE SUBSEQUENT EFFECTS UPON GPS AND UPON PERCEPTION...YOU WILL GET A SENSE OF WHAT IT IS LIKE TO STAY ON ONE OF THESE SACRED HORSES...AND TO GUIDE YOUR ARROW STRAIGHT TO THE TARGET AND BEYOND...TO FREEDOM. TO HANDLE THEM, YOU NEED MIRACULOUSLY WATERED HANDS OF LIGHT.

I'm pretty sure this is one in the ongoing series with supporting characters Agnes and Ruby, and Lynn V. Andrews herself as the protagonist. I'll have to go back and check that this isn't one of her books not in the series, none of which I've read.

Probably Lynn Andrews' best book so far. Even though all of her writings in the Medicine Woman Series all have one connection, the power of the feminine spirit, this book was a bit more enjoyable. As always her books are simple and fast to read, but enjoyable.

Lynn trekt deze keer naar Nepal met een magisch geschenk dat een sleutel is voor het openbaren van vrouwelijke kennis.

She really wrote beautiful things about her Spirit Husband.
I liked the obscure but touching poetry in this one.
