Now Discover Your Strengths – Book Review and Personal Insights

Mom On A Spiritual Journey

Now Discover Your Strengths by Marcus Buckingham and Donald O. Clifton introduces a powerful idea: instead of focusing on fixing weaknesses, we should identify and develop our natural talents. A Strength as defined in Now, Discover Your Strengths is "consistent near-perfect performance in an activity". The aim here is to find your natural talents or ways that you express yourself in the world that you find the easiest because your brain works that way.

This book is revolutionary.  It's a very different concept to consider simply building on your Strengths rather than 'plugging the skills gap' and shoring up your 'weaknesses'.

How To Work with Kundalini Yoga and Meditation – Grow Spiritual Guidance

Written by Kathyrin McCusker, a Yoga teacher and internationally known Opera Singer Kundalini Meditation is a useful guide to both meditation using the Kundalini energy, and Kundalini Yoga.

Kundalini means "the coil in the hair of the beloved" and refers to our coiled serpent-like energy which begins at the base of the spine, moving up through the chakras or energy centers and resulting in a feeling of bliss throughout the body, mind, and soul for the regular practitioner.

Kundalini Yoga is the practice of yogic postures, mantras and meditations that help activate the kundalini energy.  This energy can rise up through the chakras with practice.
