Your Hidden Light: A Personal Guide to Creating Your Desired Life by Raana Zia
Raana Zia spent over 15 years climbing the corporate ladder in Fortune 500 retail companies, eventually becoming CFO of one. Through her experience in business and life, she’s distilled her insights into this gem of a book, Your Hidden Light. It may be small, but it’s clear, direct, and deeply relevant for the modern spiritual seeker.
Your Hidden Light, available on Amazon.
Zia draws from her own journey and the teachings of spiritual masters to offer a grounded yet inspiring approach to manifestation and co-creation.
Your Inner World
Zia begins by guiding us inward—into the energetic nature of our being—and shows how our inner world creates our outer experience, often unconsciously.
She writes:
“Most people do not realize that they can create the life they want in the way they want it. In fact, most people assimilate their lives to other people’s lives, standards, or beliefs. They do not know how to use their internal energetic powers to shape their external reality.”
Once we recognize that we do have energetic power, we can start influencing our outcomes in completely new ways.
Her use of quotations adds depth, such as this one from Romans 12:2:
“Do not conform to the pattern of the world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.”
Each chapter ends with a summary of key points, making this book an excellent study companion for reflection and integration.
How We Think and Speak
In Chapter Three, Zia explores the nature of thought. As an NLP Practitioner™, I know how often our thinking is shaped by unconscious patterns—language habits we’ve inherited or absorbed without realizing it.
She reminds us that what we say to ourselves is just as powerful as what we say to others.
Zia quotes the great mystic Edgar Cayce:
“Reality is built out of thought, and our every thought begins to create reality.”
Cayce described the fourth dimension as the “realm of ideas,” emphasizing that our “imaginal forces” shape our lived experience. Becoming aware of our thoughts and learning to guide them consciously is a profound step on the path of self-development.
Feelings and Creation – Your Hidden Light
These chapters dive into the energetic frequency of emotion: the power of love and fear, and how feelings influence creation. Zia highlights gratitude as a practical starting point for shifting your inner world.
Sometimes love feels out of reach—but gratitude can open the door. Even a small spark of appreciation can begin to raise our vibration and shift our experience.
Choices, Your Story, and Reality From Your Hidden Light
In the chapter Everything is a Choice , Zia includes one of my favorite quotes from Ralph Waldo Emerson:
“The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.”
Her discussion of beliefs and choice is both insightful and practical. Since The Secret popularized the idea that “thoughts become things,” manifestation has often been misunderstood as wishful thinking.
But as Zia reminds us, thoughts alone remain in the realm of ideas until we take aligned action. Intuition reveals possibility; choice and action bring it into form.
Final Thoughts
Your Hidden Light is a wise, accessible, and inspiring guide for anyone on a spiritual journey. It blends timeless wisdom with practical insight, helping readers remember their creative power and take ownership of their lives.
Highly recommended.
