Beautiful book with beautiful design, fonts and colours. It gave simple but effective examples regarding the law of attractions and experiments that can be done. Would definitely purchase and would make a good gift

This is a standard Law of Attraction book. There are colorful abstract art illustrations throughout in tones of blue and gold. I'm not sure this is better than any other books on the topic but it has a large font and short sections and it's visually appealing.

This book was a great disappointment. The author attempts to describe what Law of Attraction (LOA) is, but doesn't do it justice. There is too much talk about coming from ego. You can come from ego and still manifest, it doesn't need to come from your higher self. This just isn't how LOA works. The comment of unwavering belief, you don't have to have this to manifest or to use LOA. We are always manifesting, How many time have people believed something wouldn't happen, and then it does. You don't need to have a higher vibration and feel happy all the time. You can manifest on all vibrational levels. These types of beliefs set people up for failure.

The words "I am" is the name of God. This is why they hold so much power, not because they put you in the present moment. This is a basic concept that any LOA coach should know and understand. Not know this to me makes the content of this book feel untrustworthy. It also shows that the author lacks the understand of LOA and how it works.

While healing past hurts, letting go of grudges and forgiveness are all amazing things to do for self evolution, they aren't needed to manifest. The author jumps all over the place and even covers toxic energy and cord cutting. All valid topics, but they aren't relevant to manifestation, if you don't do this things it will not stop you from manifesting. The author focuses a lot on going into the past, dealing with past hurts and feelings. This can be triggering for many people, this is not necessary to manifest. This book should have been about healing techniques and not manifesting.

The author starts telling people to look for signs and ask for signs that their manifestations are coming. This contradicts her saying you must have unwavering beliefs. If you are asking for signs, then that means you have doubt and need reassurance that your manifestation is coming. Also, if a sign doesn't appear, it doesn't mean your manifestation isn't coming, but some may see it that way and give up or think they are doing something wrong.

The author touches on the topic of love and says you can't manifest someone to love you because of free will. But she also speaks of quantum time lines that have different paths that can happen in different parallel realities. So if you're time jumping and you're the creator of your reality, then you can jump into the time line where that person does love you and is with you, thats your free will using LOA to quantum jump.

While the author spent most of the book talking about healing, i was surprised about the lack of content on self love. I feel like there should have been more dedicated space for this topic and how what we attract stems from self love as a whole. While, you don't have to have self love to manifest, I would have found this more helpful and more relevant than deep diving into past hurts and rekindling past traumas.

I did like the aesthetics of the book. I also like some of the meditations that were provided. I just feel this book would have been better marketed as a self healing book than a book on using LOA.

I'd like to thank the publisher and NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Trust the Universe is a high level feel good guide to help you get started with the Law of Attraction.. It is all about changing your mind set from one of lack to one of abundance. Lots of encouragement, exercises and practises are given to help get you on track. . The author encourages you to form habits and practises to help you change, and then to experience what happens. Overall it is a very high level and basic book aimed primarily at beginners to the Law of Attraction. Overall a bit of feel good fun.

Gorgeous book from a presentation point of view but a little simplistic and idealistic. No real message.
Did not engage with the writing or messages but it was a very pretty book that promotes positivity

Really beautiful illustrations, pretty generic advice. Great for first timers getting into the world of manifestation. A really great reminder of the power of our thoughts and the universal power within. The writing itself left something to be desired, maybe a little TOO simplistic for my personal taste. Then again, as a beginner book, very good.

Really eye-opening book.
There is a lot of info in here and it can feel a little overwhelming at times however it's good that it's split up well into different sections, so you can take your time reading in smaller digestible sections.

Not going to lie, there isn't anything groundbreaking here, but it is very interesting nevertheless.

I really enjoyed the different meditations in this book. The pictures were beautiful. I just wish that I was able to read it on something other than the NetGalley app, since their formatting is awful. I would definitely buy a print copy of this though,

Excellent guide to rebooting your energy and mindset. It’s far too easy to stay mired in problems and negative thinking. This book introduces practices to disrupt the negative feedback loop and bring our awareness back to happiness and gratitude.

This is a wonderful book about manifestation and the law of attraction that actually explains the necessary tools, instead of just "believing" (which is great, but not enough!) The author offers her own stories and processes as well. The design is stunning, and I love the affirmations sprinkled into the pages. Many great practices to bring into your routine to make manifestation a daily routine.

4⭐️ A fantastic and easy to follow introduction to manifestation🔮

Thanks to Netgalley and Rock Point for a DRC in exchange for an honest review!

Before I read this book I had some knowledge around manifestation and belief in the universe and The Law of Attraction however it wasn’t something that I was very good at ingraining into my everyday life.. I thought that this book was not only a brilliant introduction to these principles but also a great reminder and exploratory tool for people like me who have the knowledge but struggle to find ways to put it into practice.

The examples in this book were relatable, easy to follow and understand and the design of the book was absolutely beautiful- the cover is initially what drew me to this book and the beautiful design, fonts and colours continued all the way through. Honestly just looking at it was uplifting and inspiring.

The content was pitched at a really good level and also split up into good good sized chunks for each chapter- there wasn’t too much information and there were regular affirmations or mini activities for you to try such as meditations or journal prompts in between the paragraphs of texts.

The only criticism I have is the small section around manifesting good health as I am always wary about any kind of dialogue around spiritually healing physical ailments but overall I feel like this book has been beneficial to me and is something I will want to refer back to for guidance throughout my manifestation journey. I would also definitely consider buying a physical copy of this book just to see the stunning design in real life!

I thought this book looked quite interesting but the format makes it a little hard to read on the app. There is little text, motivational quotes and illustrations throughout and it seems a bit like a collation of someones Instagram account. There's some nice messages here but its quite difficult to read.
