Book Reviews of Connections
Book Review: Electric Buzz
Summary: 5 Stars
Gabrielle's way of seeing and expriencing life in 'Connections' is an extraordinarily divine tool that I cannot imagine living without. Each story is charged with humour and touching memories, soaring in a poetic beat that makes me want to move just reading it. I find her wisdom rich in resource, rooted in a truth that you don't find every day but you wish you could. Gabrielle gives me hope for the future. She sends an electric buzz down my back, recharging my intuitive nature, jacking me up for change, flexing my soul muscles and reminding me of what is truly important: awareness and motion.Book Review: small, but packs a punch
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is a loving smack in the face from your street-smart best friend, an eye-opening moment, when you realize that everything you've ever wanted in life has been within reach the whole time. Every sentence you read flip-turns the world upside down over and over again, until all the garbage falls away. It's unbelievably empowering. Roth's writing is rife with plain wisdom, and humor. She's wise beyond our times -- if only we all knew what was best for us, we would try to catch up with her.Book Review: Powerful, potent, and palatable
Summary: 5 Stars
This small book is very mighty and offers practical ways to access individual intuition and how to take intuitive thinking to the level of action. Roth is clever, funny and has a profound understanding of instincts and our instinctual nature. The book is awesome.Book Review: The dancing writer
Summary: 3 Stars
Roth is best known as the creator of the 5 Rhythms form of movement meditation, but she has supplemented and documented her teaching practice with recordings, videos, and several books. Connections is a short book but a thoughtful one, a series of half-slangy, half-poetic meditations on the concept of intuition, instinct, and inner knowing. Roth writes with the same instinctive flow with which she dances, flinging off memorable phrases like fast moves, touching on a galaxy of other writers and artists, weaving in anecdotes from her own life. This was a pleasurable and stimulating read, if not as good as her earlier book, Sweat Your Prayers.
