- This book revolves around the story of how the author got into Shamanic spirituality and her journey of discovering it and practicing it.
- The author doesn't merely share her journey but spiritual teachings along with case studies from her client's experiences on how to go within.
- The details and practices of Shamanic spirituality were quite intriguing as this is one of least talked about spiritual practices amidst feng shui, and many more.
- The book is powerful and will make you go deeper within yourself, question your own spirituality and make you a more aware person in this aspect.
- The highlight of the book has to be the cleansing chakra meditation and the deep level of energy associated with each page.
- The language is beginner friendly and super easy to understand.
- This book itself has a positive, saint-like aura towards it.
- The book takes place in just the right manner, not too fast, not too slow.
- The refrences in the very end just show the amount of research put in along with the author's intellect.
- One of the best things of the book was also how each chapter begun with a spiritual teaching/ quote which made the reader wanna dwell in the chapter.

🌻Never be afraid of the dark.
Without it, there is no light.”
🌻The first step is to realise there is more of you and for you than you are aware of now.
.
This book takes the readers on a spiritual journey of the author, of change, of accepting herself in the full sense. I am going, to be honest, here I didn't know much about Shaman when I come across this title and I was curious to know more.

Some facts that I didn't know and am grateful to come across in this book-
~In English Shaman means spiritual healer, one who sees in the dark or one who knows; a ‘doctor of the soul’.
~The word shaman was first translated into English in the 17th century when it was brought back by a Dutch traveller and statesman, and ambassador to the English court, Nicolaes Witsen.

This book’s main message is one of self-recognition; self-awareness; self-knowledge; self-compassion; and self-love. The whole idea of the book is to motivate people to be themselves and to be the best and proud version of themselves.
The experiences shared in this book are so intriguing and inspiring. The whole book has a poetic sense to itself. Overall, an amazing read.

This book proved to be a pleasurable read. It talks about the most necessary topics that needs to be talked upon i.e. self knowledge, self awareness, compassion and loving ourselves.
The book encourages the readers to love themselves even if there are hundred flaws, and accept themselves with the true identity. We should be grateful for whatever we have right now. This book has a touch of spirituality and sense of gratitude which, according to me, is the best part. Having a touch of spirituality, it proved to be a serene read. Not only one time read, one could read this whenever one feels low. The author describes her journey of discovering herself and introspection of herself in a very beautiful way.
This book will really make you find a deeper connection with life.
Lets move ahead with the appreciation of the serene and tranquil cover of the book. The title also is very nice. "Shaman" word means spiritual healer. The language and writing style is commendable, comprehensive and precise.
The book is very encouraging. Everyone should read this. Strongly recommended

#Book: Modern Day Shaman
# Author: Sarah Ann Negus
This book has brought a piece of spiritual enlightenment, naturally filled with eternal bliss and the ultimate goal of every living being.
An honest attempt to engage deeply the society through its content.
Too much gross materialists ignore the fundamental principle of life and entangle themselves in materialistic affairs and undergo severe painful experiences. The author has plotted a spectacular exemplary journey of Sarah Ann Negus, to remind the readers and awaken the dormant desire of eternal happiness of the readers. This is a boon for all the readers to get a chance to know about the spiritual touch of enlightenment. This alertness, awakeness will act as a catalyst to motivate the readers not only in professional working life but also in personal life too to reveal the covered eternal bliss. I liked this. Readers will surely get benefit out of it.

Title -Modern Day Shaman: Find a deeper connection with Life
Author-Sarah Ann Negus

First of all, this topic is typically very offbeat and one won't find books like these very often. The book, as it's clear from the book's title, introduces it's readers to shamanism or shamanic spirituality.

The whole book is based on Sarah, the author herself and her experiences with the shamanism. The book has insights of beliefs, human nature, thinking, purpose of life, etc. This book has inclusions of several series of events that lead to the author's transformation into something that was very unexpected and was more than she expected.

The language used by the writer was easily understood. The content is quiet new and engaging as well. All in all this is good book and is highly recommended to those who follow works based on spirituality.

I really had no idea what I was getting into when I read this book. I had lots of misconceptions based on the title. However, I quite enjoyed the book and plan to go back and reread it slowly so that I can work through the reflections, poetry, practical applications, and questions that I need to consider and answer about myself and life. The book is somewhat of a memoir of the author's path, lessons, concerns, and experiences in learning shaman herself, mixed with examples from others, perceptions, and her own skepticism while learning. Since I tend to be skeptical, I really appreciated this part of the book the most other than the lists of questions that I need to work through. Overall, well written and thoughtful book.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This was a new experience for me. It is the first time that I am hearing about shaman. This the experience of author's shamanic journey.
The book is on a spiritual background, the author here introduces the spirituality of shamanism. It is said that, this is very useful for entrepreneurs and busy people as it enables them to have some time to look into themselves.
This is the personal experiences of the author, the book will be interesting for those who are interested in this kind of spirituality. Shamanism is an old kind of spiritual journey. This is a presentation of modern shamanism.
Though this is spiritual and philosophical, the language is and idea is digestible.
The work is a asset for life, if you are searching for something deep in life.

The book revolves around Sarah, a 31 year old who is confused about her herself. The book tells the story about how she discovered who she actually is. The book talks about self recognition, self love, compassion towards oneself. How one is not broken or different, one need to perceive ones genuine self. Acceptance is the key as no one needs healing. That we just need to glimpse inside our self then looking - searching for something which is already within us.

"The door between all you have been and all you can be. I am the bridge Come journey with me."

The the book is exceptionally presented and the portrayed by the writer. The cover is fascinating.The language is lucid and added to that the author ever added poems .

Sarah, a 31 year old, the book is about how she discovered who she truly is. How one isn't broken or exceptional, one need to see ones true self.. The book talks about self affirmation, certainty, compassion towards oneself. Acknowledgment is the key as nobody needs recuperating. That we simply need to look inside our self at that point looking for something present within us. The author ever added poems and quotes throughout the books which is made it even more intriguing.

I'd like to add a stanza I particularly liked,
"To dream takes courage,
and mine has gone.
Snatched from that tiny child. All that is left is Neverwas A place my heart forgot."

The the book is exceptionally penned and depicted by the writer. The cover is fascinating.The language is lucid and simple

A very new concept for me and have read about this for the first time.
The book is written by Sarah Ann Negus where she has written experiences of her life where how shamanic spirituality helped her to heal.
The author has explained about shamanism in a very interesting manner where there are quotes and story to understand the concept in a much better way.
I learnt a lot from this book and will surely try to apply these learnings in my life.
This book is not only a great guide to all those who are much into spirituality but also will give so much help to those who do not know more about it or are new into their spiritual journey.
This book is useful for all regardless of there genre, you will indeed learn something new and interesting.

The book modern day shaman by Sarah Ann Negus is all about shamanic spirituality. It has been discovered that shamans existed in all ancient cultures far and wide around the world. It teaches us how to relax our mind.
Mediation is the best way to keep our things control. Shamanic spirituality helps us to know the power of intention. Our chakra system helps us to reflect our energy centres, chakras, store experience and moves emotions through us. I will reduce my stress by chakra clearing mediation. You may also read this novel when you feel stressed. it will give you a nice antidote. My favourite verse in this novel is ;
"If you want to see the truth, you must be brave enough to look.

I will admit, this is in no way up my alley... but I will say it was eye-opening.
I loved the layout and how easy Sarah Ann Negus made it for the reader to understand her concepts.
I especially liked that fact that this book can't be categorized, we have many different aspects that keep it relevant to a multitude of people. Whether you want to read am memoir about someone else's experiences, find ways to change yourself for the better, or just learn about something new to you. This was a great read.

Written as a memoir yet also a self-help. That’s quite the line to cross. For me it’s important for me to think that the authors experiences give her credibility for the topic she is writing on. I think Sarah Ann Negus does a great job of giving us many real life examples from her past that lend to her own growth and how we can take those experiences from her and apply them to our life. It’s a past and present type book. Part self-help and part self-discovery. Getting in touch with ones self is important. Learning about our dreams and their meaning is important to our everyday lives.

The book discusses about shapman , a tribal healer who can manage both spiritual and materialistic world .
The book basically focused on self-awareness ,self healing, self love .
The book is not a mere experience of author bit also enriched with so many case study and client details .
This 170 pages book is fast paced though .
The language is too crispy to be digestible by beginners . The cover of the book is appropriate .The title is sufficiently clear what exactly it want to convey .

I think the word shaman could be a little hard for many to understand. We often hear it in instances that seem far fetched and not with the current times. I think that Sarah Ann Negus is taking that misconception and shining light on what a shaman's goal is. Building your spiritual being to help you become a better person.
We navigate through Negus's life and trials while learning how to implement her practices and inspiring the reader.

A journey towards self awareness!



A shaman is a tribal healer who can act as a medium between the visible world and the spirit world.
Shaman means spiritual healer, one who sees in the dark or one who knows.


The book is a nice 170 pages read. The book talks about self-awareness, self-knowledge, self-compassion and most importantly, self-love. The main aim of the book is to encourage people to be themselves and accept themselves the way they are and be proud of themselves. Be thankful for whatever they have and value them.
The book is about the journey of author to find herself, accept herself for what she is ! It is a self acceptance journey.

The book is full of energy and motivation.

"I felt myself expanding and for a split second I was everything. The sky. The Earth. The rivers and oceans, animals, trees and plants. I was filled with light, immense light. I was the light."

The only thing I felt could have been better is, the author could have used pictures to make the book more interesting and attractive.

A great book for self help.
It truly helps to find the connection within. There's a lot of practical things which benefits everyone. Spirituality isn't easy but this book made it describing events as the sahrah's path. Helps to know the mind perspective of humans and helps to learn about human thinking and purpose of life.
Book was really nice and followed the pattern which is great for forwarding the idea. The concepts discussed were also awesome and language was crisp and straightforward. Really loved the book and you won't regret reading it.
