Advantages: A beautiful read

Disadvantages: Needs concentration

Living in the light gives the reader useful and practical advice about living your life to the fullest. Listening in to the intuition that guides us, that gut feeling and how to hone in on it.

A very beautifully written book allowing the reader to come to his/her own conclusions but all the while providing gentle guidance to the art of living a full and intuitive life.

Although an excellent book, it requires a bit of concentration, not a book that you can just dip in and out of.

If you want a fulfilling reading experience, then this is the book for you, but if you want a quick fix then maybe just keep looking.

Updated:
This book offers practical useful exercises about meditation and dealing with negative emotion, which stop the energy flow. How to work with your intuition like this following exercise from the book:

"1.Write down all the reasons you can think of for not following trusting and folowing your intuition. Include on the list any fears you have about what might happen to you if you trust your intuition and act on it all the time.
2. Review the meditation at the end of the third chapter.
3.At least twice a day (more often if you can remember), take a minute to relax, close your eyes and "check in" with your gut feeling to see if you are doing what you feel you want to be doing.
4. For one day, or a week, assume that your intuitive feeling about things is always one-hundred percent right, and act as if so."

This exercise was life transforming for me, as sometimes I could act on what I felt and other times it was completely illusive. I 'pretended' at first that I knew my intuition was right but before long I have found that the gut feeling is stronger and I get better with it each day. Recently I resigned from my job as I felt it was not right even with no more work on the cards. Today three weeks later I have more work than I can handle and I am happier tha
n ever before. Not all gut feelings are this life tranforming but learning to listen in keeps my 'Down' days to a minimum and on the whole I am a much happier person.

There are many other practical exercises on most aspects of life that have really helped me to turn my naturaly pessimitic attitude to a generally positive one. I would recommend this book to anyone with an open mind and the willingness to read it whilst going through the exercises. The exercises are short and can fit in to most working peoples schedules, so there is no excuse if you want a hand on the road to feeling genuinely happy and fulfilled.
