A Radical Road to Self-Love and Miracles - Spirit Junkie

Recovery and Course of Miracles, two of my favorite subjects. Spattered with personal experiences brings much to life. A way of putting course of miracles into practice. Very much enjoyed the book and would re-read.

Though Gabby writes it light and breezy, it is, sometimes, difficult stuff (about the human ego).

Luckaly I did some courses on this matter in the past, so I get what she is writing about, and I am so grateful to read this reminder.

I love how open and honest Gabby is. Can't wait to read her other two books.

My strategy is; first reading Spirit Junkie. After finishing I will go through it again and do the meditations. I have never really meditated, but Gabby really makes me want to do that.

I think she is great. So fresh. Really helpful to read about finding the positive place within yourself and staying there.

(I am reading this book in combination with "The Magic" by R. Byrne, and I just want to let you know how wonderful this reads together. Miraculously!).

It totally helps me to see the light again after coming out of a nasty relationship break-up.

I recommend this book highly. Thank you Gabby.

I gave this 5 stars because I have really enjoyed reading this book. I like the guided meditations in the book, and I bought the guided meditations CD. I am new to meditating, and it is really easy to follow.

I found the writing, the slang and the "Twilight" references to be very juvenile. Oddly enough, I thought Tweens would struggle with the language derived from "a Course in miracles". When I saw her interview with Oprah and heard about rising above loss through breakup, drugs and alcohol, I didn't expect it to be a high school romance, a couple of beers and a few joints. While I am pleased that these were the most traumatic things that happened to Ms. Bernstein, I struggled to relate.

I truly enjoyed reading this book. Hearing Gabby's experience made the miracle mindset techniques more applicable. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is starting on their spiritual journey. Easy to digest and a whole lot of inspiration and examples.

Although I appreciate Gabrielle for given due credit where it's owed, I think this protege, as well as her book, is a repackaged version of her patron, Marianne Williamson. I felt it was mediocre at best with no additional insights other than the experiences of her own life story. Surely this could be beneficial for someone but my take was; save your money and get the real goods from the original Marianne Williamson, "A Course in Miracles".

Thank goodness for this book. It's relatable and not preachy. It's just that simple. To find peace of mind, to know yourself, I can't put it down. I'm reading through it once and then going back to practice the meditations. I've also downloaded some of her meditations on itunes.

Never being one to really fall into the typical new agey type books I found myself shocked when I read Gabby's first book ing. I went on her retreat and followed her on Facebook as well as her website Her Future. Now the follow up is finally her. I love it she breaks down hard concept into easy to understood practices. A Miracle is a shift in perception and her first book helped me to heal from an abusive relationship( as well as numerous other stories I hear from women about their own wounds being healed) can't wait to see the wonders that this one brings forth in the world.

Spirit Junkie and Gabby B have changed my life for ever. This book just shouts out
happiness and well being. You too can be the happiest person you know!!! Just read
this book!!! Sending love and light to everyone who gets a chance to explore the Spirit Junkie life!!!!

There is something to be said for the colloquial language of this book, making it more appealing to a younger crowd and downplaying the new-age vibe a bit. It is more or less completely based off of "A Course in Miracles" by Marianne Williamson, and at times I found myself thinking that I just should have been reading that instead. For anyone who has read similar books, I don't think there will be many new revelations here.

Gabrielle Bernstein is amazing. Follow her advice and it will truly change your way of thinking and your life for the better. I have also read her book May Cause Miracles and it led me to a whole new way of living and believing.

I loved "Return to Love" and really enjoy the movement behind the Course in Miracles so I was hoping that this book would add a fresh, edgy spin to what I've learned and bring my awareness to a new level. I was disappointed. As much as I understand Gabrielle's desire to share with the world her experience with Marianne's writings, this book added nothing to the concept. Furthermore, the new and "fresh" buzz words that were thrown in to add a younger feel ("homies?" really?) just sounded ridiculous and trite when paired with the spiritual and emotional nature of the material. I didn't learn anything new, nor did the book do anything to deepen my experience. I'm happy for Gabrielle that she has embraced this work as many of us have, but I really didn't need a pithy regurgitation of what I've already come to believe. Thanks anyway Gabby.

Love the principles she advocates. Enjoyed the writing style, flow and personality. I didn't realize however that this is basically a summation of her experience with another book, one that changed her life. If nothing else it made me want to read the primary source of her inspiration.

Definitely a good read but pretty basic.

The book was delivered quickly and in good shape but I was disappointed in the content. No offense, I think it's just more relevant to those younger than I. My spiritual journey is 60 years old and this just didn't hit home with me. I hope others are blessed by reading it.

Very hip, simplified, and precise interpretation of a long and difficult read, A COURSE IN MIRACLES. The book far exceeded my expectations. Actually I loved it. And the Ing, a very hip name for The Holy Spirit; kind of like calling your Father...Pop!

I have never written reviews before on anything, but this book was so incredibly disappointing, I just had to. I only read the first chapter, and I was so irritated. All this author does is regurgitate things she's read in the book she keeps referring to, "A Course in Miracles." She writes like an 11th grade high school student, and proposes to be a guide in showing the reader how to become some version of yourself. I just can't take her seriously. This book may be of value to those who don't have the attention span to dig through the real material, but for me it was a complete waste of time. I returned the book because I thought it was completely useless.
