“If we encounter a man of rare intellect, we should ask him what books he reads.” –Ralph Waldo Emerson

Some years ago, I asked my “guru”, “Why are you so smart?”  Mind you, my guru also happens to be my soul-mate, husband of 10 years, Chris. He says, “Because I read books.”  Simple and profound. That quite describes him. (I see him with a new book each week, sometimes more!)  So I took his wise answer to heart and picked up a book. In fact, lots of them. I realized the power in reading. I guess the saying “Knowledge is power” is true, huh? What kind of books do I like, you ask? I’m personally into ones that enlighten consciousness, expand self-love, self-exploration, and creating magic + miracles! I totally get why reading fiction books are all the rage. I just happen to want some kind of tangible tool or mindset to walk away with when I’m done reading a book. If you currently looked at my bookshelf, you’d think I was some kind of high-class hippie looking for magic spells to manifest miracles or something. Over the years, I’ve read a handful of books that I just don’t ever want to put down. Below are a few of my hand-picked favorites that never leave my bedside table. I know, I know – I hear you moaning already. “But I’m not a reader or I don’t like reading.”  I get it. I said the same thing. Let me share with you a little secret. We’re not in grade school anymore, and you can CHOOSE any kind of book you can even imagine!

Pick something you’re passionate about. Learn something new. Explore deeper. 

Dedicate yourself to reading just a few pages a day. Make a new habit of picking up a book when you have a few moments to spare. Trust me on this one. Go read a book.
