Dean has spent the past three decades traveling the world, learning from and studying with master teachers on almost every continent. The materials, techniques, and wisdom collected through her work are shared here, representing a wide range of ancient teachings and skillsets. After also spending fifteen years with therapists, clergy, and professionals in psychology and psychiatry, witnessing the general failure of so-called "talk therapy" and routine drug-prescribing here in the U.S., she felt called to assist people in "releasing old patterns and helping them realign with their true natures—that of being individual 'God-Sparks.'" Dean explores such topics as the approaching "End Time," the nature of karma, energy fields, chakras, yin and yang, prayer, breathwork, and various meditations. Specific techniques considered in depth include "Chinese Lion's Breath," "Callahan Techniques of Thought Field Therapy," the "Three Tap Method," and "Light Grounding." Emphasis is placed on clearing negative, interfering energies and releasing emotional issues while mastering one's spiritual self through a series of outlined exercises.

The depth of the author's experiences with master teachers from spiritual and cultural traditions spanning the globe is impressive. Even more intriguing, and what sets this book apart from the generic self-help guide, is how Dean presents such an abundance of information, teachings, and daily practices in which the reader can engage. Her enthusiasm for the subject and its life-affirming and life-changing qualities shines through every page, creating quite a remarkable read. Though primarily billed as a "workbook" providing spiritual insight and techniques gathered from Dean's thirty-plus years of travel and study, this book also excels at telling a grand story of where humanity has been and where it is headed. Insightful, passionate, and loaded with detailed information, Dean's book surely will satisfy any reader seeking clarity among the chaos.
