'The Magic of Connection' was not there for me. It felt very much like a text book read and obviously that is a big no no for me. I just didn't like the flow of things nor did I find anything useful or intriguing enough to keep me engaged.

All in all, this can work for most people who are looking to turn a negative to a positive. Unfortunately with how this reference book was formatted/written, I am better off using Google.

Note that while this book will not be released until January 8, 2021, I was given early access to read it by the author. This review is written voluntarily and reflects my own personal reactions & opinions regarding the content and its value to the reader.

In my opinion, this book is a great resource on many, many levels. The most important aspect I believe, is that it EMPOWERS people rather than just teaching them how to "deal with" negative energy. It is jam-packed with information/explanations, exercises, guided meditations and a tremendous number of other tools which help us learn how to transform/transmute energy rather than simply blocking it, protecting ourselves from it or sending it back in the direction it came from. This allows us to HEAL the "cords of connection" that link each and every one us together and transform that negative energy into something altogether different, something that heals and nurtures and transforms the way we experience life.

This book is an absolute MUST for anyone identifying as an "empath" since they are particularly aware of the effect that energy has on them and are most vulnerable to allowing themselves to be disempowered by their sensitivities. However, this is a book that serves us ALL. The world we live in today is drowning in negativity. We need as many people as possible to get on board and start transmuting that negative energy into something that benefits us all.

Wow, this is an excellent book about mental alchemy. Wow, for that purpose you can summon even great Solomon or Ceridwen!!! The difference what is the standard protection like banishing or cutting the cords and what is alchemical transmutation is very clearly explained. You can use these techniques in many ways, not just in your relationships with other people. Very, very interesting book. This book will be a best seller because it is very lucid teaching presented in it. I recommend this text. Thanks.

Unfortunately this one just didn't work for me at all. It felt to much like a text book vs. something trying to teach me something. I wished that it would have been like normal books about magic and connection. This I ended up DNFing around 20%

The Magic of Connection is based on solid foundations of the laws of the universe yet written so that everyone can benefit from its wisdom. It will be THE book that spiritual development teachers around the globe will refer their students to for years to come. It explains in detail how to work on your own energies proficiently and fully - no half jobs spiritually - this is the only book you need!

Michelle Welch provides a beautiful tool in times of hardship and conflict pertaining to metaphysical energy.

Many people who wish to escape reality with books about things they can only wish or imagine tend to go in circles, but trying to understand the tangibility of energy, utilizing the energy work in this book leads to growth in a dynamic way. I agree with Michelle, in our current society we are so quick to pass off our faults and misunderstandings onto others. More and more, humans are feeling complacent with deflecting any form of ownership pertaining to our cause or effect in situations or conflicts, inevitably leading to a half-way existences.

Michelle empowers us in our empathy by highlighting how we can use our compassion or at least enlighten us with genuinely understanding in the role we play in the conflicts or encounters. Owning and minding our energy in engagements and relationships leads growth though our transformation by transmuting energy.

Traditional Hebraic teachings and Metaphysical Alchemy is encoded with many of these exercise, yet Michelle gives the reader an easier way to constantly use and bring the same effect in how transmuting energy can impact our life.

If you are willing to stop running from others and face others with courage, read this book, start to rename, reframe, and transmute energy to keep life balanced which can help strengthen your path or choices in life.

I received an advance copy of this book, which comes out January 8, 2021. Within the first few pages I immediately felt understood, and that I had hope. I did not know that the way I have felt all of my life was a thing, a thing that many others experienced too. I thought that I was all alone! I gained hope as I read through this book and worked through the well laid out and simple exercises at the end of each chapter. What's great is that you can work with any or all of the tools - herbs, essential oils, crystals, candles, archangels, and more. The information in this book is easy to grasp and start working with to change your life for the better and feel better quickly.

You will quickly gain understanding of minding your own energy, and dealing with life and other peoples energy as It comes your way daily. I promise. Do the work and it will start working for you - immediately. Stop those bad feelings before they take hold.

Michelle is an innovative author and thinker and a person with cutting edge views. This is not some boring, cookie cutter self help book. She will tell it to you straight in her own personal style. I have never seen information like this before.

This is a great read, and priceless information that you can easily use for the rest of your life.

Many thanks to this author!

I received an advanced copy of this book and I am absolutely thrilled that Michelle is sharing this message and pathway to transmuting the slings and arrows of our lives into healing energy. These techniques are especially relevant during the current times when difficulties abound and it is sometimes so tempting to cut ourselves off from that discomfort. We’re doing ourselves a disservice, and this book provides a toolkit to begin a journey to reclaim our places in the flow of things and to empower ourselves to take accountability and control of the energies that connect ourselves to humanity and spirit. I’ve personally benefited from the exercises in this book. It’s definitely a process and I am still learning. Michelle’s guidance becomes a practice that requires me to consistently work on awareness of my energy and to remind myself that I have the power and ability to transmute energy that doesn’t serve me into energy that does. As a sound healer and Reiki master, I can honestly recommend this book. This message, if shared and studiously applied is life changing.

THIS is REAL!

If you are seeking ways to truly empower yourself and have read every book out there to help you . . . STOP. THIS is REAL. There are many tools and techniques you can use but not many that explain the reality. Don’t just go to the tools. READ and LEARN. Really read and constantly question yourself: is this me, do I do this, do I act in this way? Honesty empowers and you must be honest about yourself and your actions to become empowered. Easy to read, with every technique/tool you need to help you, sure it’s all there. BUT, you need to get to the reality of YOU and this book will bring that forth. Use it as a mirror to see what truly needs changing. Life is about you – IF, and only IF, you mind your own energy and take care of it the way you would nurture a loved one, will you be able to live an empowered life that is beneficial to you for certain, but in turn, benefits the collective whole. Be REAL with yourself as you read this REAL book and you will gain much.

This book read too much like a psychology text book at times for my taste. We are empaths at some level, sure though you don’t see it with some people Energy is in everything, agreed. But at times I felt like the author was a psychologist helping someone learn how to deal with negative people. Yes, I get the energy side of it, but I couldn’t get past that at times.

Overall, this would be a great book for anyone who needs to turn the negative to a positive and retrain the way you deal with them. I’d suggest getting a journal and working through this book if it appeals to you. Just because it didn’t click for me, doesn’t mean it isn’t right for you. Blessed be.

We received an advance copy of this wonderful book it is an important guide book for sensitives and empaths (which is all of us, as the author Michelle Welch points out!) The Magic of Connection is chock full of metaphysical wisdom, and teaches us about the energy we take in and the energy we put out. Michelle beautifully clarifies the many ways this can work for us and against us. She shares effective, healing exercises that help us be more mindful of what we are experiencing, while providing effective tools that help create focus, change, awareness, protection, empowerment - and connection

I really was not a fan of this book's writing style. While I appreciate Michelle's views and unique background as a witch and an attorney, I think her background in law school got in the way of how she discusses her ideas. Other reviews say that this reads like a textbook, and I agree. Very cut and dry. Even the disclaimer itself reeked of wanting not to be legally responsible for any poor ideas a reader might take. I also appreciate her desire for people to stop hiding from their problems and traumas, though I don't completely agree with her methods throughout the book.

I received a copy of this book for a fair and honest review. I was not sure what I would get out of this book, but I needed a way to reconnect myself to a better flow of the universe. I like there were exercises at the end of each chapter to practice what the chapter is offering up as information. There was just so much to take in from this book. It made me take a closer look at myself and made think hard about a lot of things that this brought to me.

I was so blessed to receive an advance copy of this book. This book is very eye opening. I love how the author is empowering empaths and especially love the relation to superheroes and powers. Before I read this book, I felt unempowered as an empath. Now I feel like I could conquer anything using the tools mentioned!

With so much discord happening in the world today this book couldn't have come at a better time. Finally, a clear and concise guide with effective tools and exercises I can use day-to-day to create lasting change. I had so many "ah-ha" moments this book is now my official go-to reference guide in my library.

It felt more like a school book than a book about energy and magic.
There's plenty of interesting content but it's not my cup of tea.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine

A good book for all empaths out there. Liked that it delved into some explanations about energy itself before trying to instruct the reader on how to work with said energy. Some of the concepts are life-altering, actually. Everyone who considers themselves an empath should read this one

I'm happy that books like this are being written in regards to source - energy.. But unfortunately the execution and format isn't very reader friendly and the information is too hard to absorb.

Love this book! I love how the author blends old ideas with new. Being an empath, the idea that we do not have to disconnect from people is unique and more realistic. The book offers exercises and tools that are very easy to use. Highly recommend this book.
