More Reviews for Spirituality, Healing and Me

The following reviews complete the successful review tour for my book, Spirituality, Healing and Me with @literallypr.

What a beautiful book to read when going through a challenging time such as a relationship breakdown or health scare. This felt like a nourishing bowl of inspiration, healing and positivity for the heart and soul.

I am amazed by the fact that the author, Ilana Estelle @thecpdiary grew up not knowing she had a disability; it took forty-six years for her to find out that she was living with cerebral palsy. Spirituality helped Ilana on her journey, and I feel like her experiences can be a guide for others seeking spirituality, positivity, and healing support.

From karma to anger management, to understanding how spirituality and religion are not the same, this is a very positive book to dip in and out of to help you build a more spiritual mindset and approach to life and its hurdles along the way.

I'd say this is more of a beginners' guide to spirituality and healing but would also make a good 'refresher' for anyone who feels they need to get back onto a more positive path."

"I recently got sent a copy of Spirituality, Healing & Me by Ilana Estelle, and wanted to deliver a truthful review on how I found Ilana’s second book.

Ilana uses her own personal journey to share wisdom in this latest book, and as somebody has faced many a challenge, including her own battle with Cerebral Palsy and being diagnosed in her forties – the topic of spirituality and healing couldn’t be more apt.

As soon as I started the first chapter, I was completely in awe of Ilana’s personal thoughts and feelings on the taboo subject of death. Death is actually my biggest fear, and it caused many of my panic attacks over the years, so when I received help from a hypnotherapist on dealing with my panic attacks, I ended up identifying the root of my anxiety. The root stemmed back to my childhood when I was diagnosed with ITP, a rare blood disorder and sister disease to leukaemia. Without realising, the implications of how this period of my life made me feel was – scared, unsure and like I was going to die.

Spirituality has always been a big part of my life, including having crystal healing treatments as a child. So I can totally relate to Ilana’s messages throughout this book about finding her spirituality – physically and emotionally.

Spirituality, Healing and Me is a book that I will always keep in my bookshelf – as it’s a timeless book that I could pick up again and again to find solutions, enlightenment and new personal discoveries."

More Reviews: Survival: The Covid Years

Thank you so much to @Zooloo's Book tour for organising Survival: The Covid Years 'book tour' and to her bloggers for their reviews.

Why I wrote Survival: 'The Covid Years'

I wrote the book so that I could feel better and so that I would come to understand and come to terms with what was the most difficult period of my mental and emotional disability.

For anyone living with a mental and emotional disability is difficult, living with a mental and emotional disability at a time when there is a killer disease on the loose, impossible. Although I was never in a position to change how the pandemic was being handled, being proactive and doing something to make myself feel better, eventually helped me to come to terms with the virus a little better.

The ethos behind the book

"By shedding light on her personal challenges through the pandemic, Ilana encourages the reader to explore the thoughts and feelings raised by their own pandemic journey. In this way she aims to unlock future potential for others, enabling them to move on from this enormously difficult time. A must read for anyone wanting to take positive steps after the challenges of Covid-19.”

💬MY THOUGHTS💬

It's fair to say that none of us saw COVID or a global panic coming nor did we understand how long and the extent to which this would impact our lives at all levels. I've dealt with anxiety most of my adult life and like many, the pandemic sent me into a level of anxiety I hadn't known. I think the hardest part was all of the unknowns combined with a massive amount of people dying from this invisible killer.

Other reasons for my increased anxiety include my 90+ year old grandma being in an assisted living facility, my parents living halfway across the country in a state that did not lock down as much as Oregon did, and finally we unexpectedly lost my brother to a heart attack. Sadly, I wasn't able to go home for his memorial service and since it was outside it wasn't live streamed. v I say all of this to say, I enjoyed this book and can't fathom how difficult it was for the author during this time. I appreciate the author's candid tale is honest, raw, and vulnerable. In this book she documents her feelings and explains her story in a clear and concise manner. I was hooked from start to finish and found myself identifying with her in more ways than one. I highly recommend this book to all!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

If you’ve read Ilana's first book then you’ll love this continuing journey by Ilana. Ilana really shows you what it was like for people during the pandemic as well as her own. Ilana not only has cerebral palsy but she also has autism. Reflecting back its eye opening to remember what it was like individually during the pandemic in terms of emotional, mental and physical needs. There’s something about reading another individual's story that makes you feel like what you encountered is almost normal and that we are not alone. It’s lovely reading how someone that suffered so immensely turned their life into positive motivations. It shows that roller coasters are meant to be ridden and hurdles are meant to be jumped over.

Ilana really hit home for me and I truly found this inspiring, motivational and heart warming. It shows you how even how the pandemic is over it can still leave challenging emotions that people continue to struggle with. You really feel yourself becoming invested into Ilana’s perspective and there is so much honesty written in the words. I’ll be honest and during the pandemic I was lucky to have my family surrounding me and it really puts into perspective how naive I was with how other people were struggling and facing individual challenges. This is a phenomenal read and truly beautifully written.
