Personally, I don't read enough. Something always seems to get in the way and essentially, at home, I just don't make the time for it. It's interesting though, when travelling I read book after book and I am always on search for that next read. I love a good crime book but my main choice of books are ones that enhance my soul and give me new knowledge and vision. Here are some of my favourite must read books (in no particular order) that I recommend for developing and adding more positivity into your life.
I have to start with this classic. I first heard of The Secret whilst at secondary school and it honestly changed my life. It was the first time I had heard of the Law of Attraction and that we had the power within us to create and live the life that we desire.
Rhonda Byrne does an excellent job with this self help book at explaining the law and how to utilise it. The Law of Attraction states that "like attracts like" and this book is your go to if you want to learn how to manifest, attract everything that you've ever wanted and live your best life.
Another Rhonda Byrne classic, The Magic. This book puts what you learnt in The Secret into practise. A 28 day step-by-step manifestation guide on how to walk towards your dream life. Each day includes a write up and then a task designed to help you attract what you need in each area of your life. From relationships, to your career, to your emotions deep within. The Magic is a way to kick start your Law of Attraction game.
E2 is an easy, enjoyable and practical read. The #1 New York Bestseller has 9 do-it-yourself energy experiments for you to participate in to prove that there is a positive and powerful force that we can harness in our universe. The tasks are spread over 48 hours, involve no money and require little effort. It's clever, fun to complete and brings the magical power of the universe into our hands.
4) The Art of Happiness - A Guide to Developing Life's Most Important Skill by Matthieu Ricard (2003)
This book was a magic find for me. I was travelling alone around South East Asia in 2015 and found myself in Laos lunching at a restaurant by the river. Free book exchanges
are a huge service when travelling and this restaurant had a small but quirky collection. I searched through the few books they had and found this gem. I remember waiting for my pumpkin soup, looking out to the river and feeling at peace. I was already hooked to this magical book.
Matthieu Ricard takes you on a journey into the teachings of spirituality from the Eastern and the Western worlds, step by step introducing mini tasks to help you define what true happiness is and walking you closer to your true authentic self. As an interpreter for the Dalai Lama, Matthieu has a depth of knowledge and his word is trusted. The Art of Happiness teaches you that happiness is a skill that we can all acquire no matter the circumstances or situations we are in.
5) The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho (1988)
The Alchemist, a truly enchanting, life changing book, is about a young Andalusian Shepard who despite resistance, sets out on a journey towards the Pyramids in search of a mystical treasure. Along the way, he meets three important people who all contribute and influence his journey ahead but also his journey deep within. Paulo Coelho displays true self belief and courage in this book, showing us the importance of trusting our instincts and highlighting that we all have the power to achieve our wildest dreams. A must read.
The #1 New York Times Bestseller - You Are A Badass is a self help book with a difference. The book focuses on identifying who you are at the present moment, where you want to be and what you can do about it right now. With mini tasks, the occasional swear word, inspirational stories and a kick up the arse, this book takes you through the steps of disregarding your limiting self beliefs, creating new ones and stepping into your true power. You Are A Badass is the book you need to finally figure out your goals and then get out there and actually achieve them.
An inspiring, revolutionary book that combines the spiritual world with scientific research and astonishing results. Dr Joe Dispenza, the New York Times Bestselling Author, explores how us, common people, can transform our lives and health through deep meditation and practically rewire our subconscious and conscious brain to open up a realm of infinite possibilities. What is interesting in this book, is that Dr Joe Dispenza draws on scientific research to support the spiritual theory with brain scans, energy measurements and other medical research tools. This book has it all - The theory, the evidence and then the steps to take to change your own life and become "Supernatural" . The meditations in this book are extremely deep and powerful with supporting audios to help take you from your ordinary life to a state of extraordinary being.
"By underpinning deceptively simple practices with hard brain science, Dr Joe proves that the supernatural is in fact our natural state of being - and also within our ready grasp." Lynne McTaggart, Bestselling Author of The Field.
