Review of Three Paths to Autonomy and Self-Actualisation for Therapists and Clients

[Following is a volunteer review of "Three Paths to Autonomy and Self-Actualisation for Therapists and Clients" by Linda Gregory Ph.D..]
The book Three Paths to Autonomy and Self-Actualisation for Therapists and Clients by Linda Gregory Ph. D. explores ideas in Quantum Physics, specifically the Quantum Field. The experienced author provides innovative and inspiring techniques to improve emotional well-being for the reader. She includes guided meditation exercises throughout the book that assist in self-discovery and actualisation.
I am grateful to have read this book. My goal while reading is to learn something, whether that be about myself, or the world. This book taught me not only about my internal purpose but also about how I can help others. Gregory artfully rejects the Western idea of equating worth with productivity. Her mentions of Being rather than Doing encourage the reader to think about how the world perpetuates constant improvement and action. This constant movement causes detrimental effects on humanity's psyche. Gregory teaches the reader that pausing for a moment to be in the Now is not a negative thing, it is necessary for your mental health.
There is nothing in this book that I dislike. Other than a few grammatical errors, the book was satisfactory. I was nervous that this book was going to be heavily religious and therefore limiting for some readers, but the author does a lovely job of keeping her mention of religion to a minimum. She does not impose her religious beliefs on the reader. She mentions different religions and refers to gods/God/Nature/Higher Being, but she focuses more on spirituality, rather than religion.
I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars. The meditations included are enlightening and can help the reader achieve self-actualisation. It is evident that Gregory cares about her audience and wishes to impart her knowledge to us. Her tone throughout the book is caring and professional. She references an abundance of qualified resources throughout the book to ensure her credibility.
I recommend this book to anyone who is going through a stressful time in their life. Given the state our world is in, many people are struggling, whether that be emotionally, financially, physically, or all three. Spirituality helps to bring people together. This book explains how you can get in touch with yourself and with your inner spirit so that you can bring positive energy into the world. This book is recommended by the author for therapists/counselors who wish to help their clients, but it can also be helpful for others who are in search of guidance.
