Robin Marvel lives in Hersey, Michigan with her amazing supportive husband, Keith and four phenomenal daughters. She is the creator of Aura Sense Guide and uses the website to encourage Universal Awareness.

The search for a metaphysical workbook for her four daughters brought Robin to write “Awakening Consciousness: A Girl’s Guide.” Failing to find a suitable book to start awakening her own daughters while homeschooling, she decided to write her own.

THE BOOK:

Awakening Consciousness is a workbook designed to encourage spiritual growth on a path of self-awareness. The fun hands-on exercises in this motivating, easy to use workbook are for girls of all ages and will encourage great exploration into universal Awareness. Source: Amazon

MY REVIEW:

I’m confirming it that Awakening Consciousness: A Girl’s Guide by Robin Marvel is a fun exercise book that helps promote self-awareness.

The texts are easy to read and the exercises are easy to understand.  Like most workbooks, after every topic, there is a follow-up exercise. I like the fact that pictures are included to illustrate some  of the exercises in the book. I really appreciate that while I was reading about the “chakracizes” because the illustrations have helped me understand the exercises easily.

From reading the book, I learned a lot about auras, chakras, crystals and aromatherapy among others. I honestly, honestly had no clue about the meaning of aura colors and I surely didn’t know about the seven chakras before. I just didn’t have any idea about all that but the book tackled a bit about these topics and I’m glad because at least I now know what these things mean. I was also fascinated with the pendulum and the grounding (to the Earth) exercises. And my favorite exercises (in the book) would be tabout scrubbing the aura,  the pendulum, the grounding and I absolutely like the crafts for aromatherapy!

I am not so certain (to put it mildly) with that part about the tarot cards though because I don’t really believe in all that (along with horoscopes etc…) but the book rings of positivity and that in itself makes it a gem.

For parents and teachers who want to motivate kids -not only girls but boys as well- and encourage exploration of the inner-self, this is definitely a good workbook to start with. Like I did,  I’m sure other  adults would find it a fun and motivating workbook as well.

In closing let me leave you two messages which I was reminded of while reading this book: one is a quote from Napoleon Hill and another from the song The Greatest Love Of All.

“What the mind of man can conceive and believe, It can achieve.”

“Learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all..”

Happy Sunday everyone! Oh BTW, thanks to Parent Reviewers for the chance to review this book.
