adventurous emotional informative inspiring reflective relaxing tense fast-paced

3.75

🔹 My take: 3.75/5

🔸 I am another You is about author’s spiritual journey she took decades back. It’s about her week spent at The Netherlands where she met fourth generation shamans and how her life transformed for better by taking their guidance and following years old proven rituals of shaman leaders. The shaman processes include physical cleansing along with spiritual awakening proving the age old adage ‘Healthy body leads to healthy mind’. At the end of her journey; she is not only confident but at peace with a lot of things boosting her well-being. 

💖 Wows - This is my 2nd read of Priya Kumar and I love her writing style. Her books are written in a lucid manner and the texts are not preachy even though they are non fiction. While Kumar learnt lot many rituals but this book jots down 5 most important rituals that she undertook during her spiritual expedition with shamans. She has shared snippets of the ritual, the logic behind performing them, the emotional turbulence she felt while doing them and the support she got from her teachers when she faced any dilemma. At the end of each chapter; synopsis is shared in small bullets which I loved the most. I have highlighted so many parts that I would refer at intervals to enjoy this book again.

💔 Ows - This is a very quick read and the chapters are concise. I found the book so interesting that while learning about rituals; I got curious and wanted more detailed explanation to have deeper understanding of shamans way of life. It would have been great to know more about leaders and how they reached to the pedestal and their struggles. 

💫  Priya Kumar is an internationally acclaimed motivational speaker and author of inspirational books. She is an Indian and has won 44 prestigious awards for her books. This is a great motivational read about how she faced dejection at a point in her life and how she helped herself to come out of it and regained control of her destiny. ⭐️⭐️⭐️✨💫
