#KnowtheTruth: Why Knowing Who You Are Changes Everything by Gordana Biernat
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I came across Gordana Biernat on twitter, and her tweets really resonated so I bought her book in the print format. I love it's luxurious feel. It's a thing of quality - as are its contents.
I hadn't heard of Gordana before coming across her on twitter. Her main selling angle is that she is one of Oprah Winfrey's Supersoul 100 teachers. And a quick glance round the internet tells me that twitter is her main outlet. She does talks and interviews on other people's sites, but everything redirects to her twitter feed. It's where she posts most of her thoughts and knowledge.
And the book #KnowTheTruth is structured from the tweets. She has used them to guide the topics she then discusses more in depth. There are 231 tweets she elaborates on, and you can choose to just dip into this book or read it cover to cover as I did.
I felt there was progression through the book on the topics, so you could understand each stage and grow to the next one, so for me cover to cover worked best, but it is also a book that I will dip into time and again to refresh my thinking or to understand something again, or maybe look at it from another perspective.
It follows the truth about ourselves in terms of how powerful and limitless we really our, and how our thinking and conformity to social constructs restricts us. It holds answers to how you can free yourself mentally - and spiritually - and create a life you want to create, big or small. And it teaches how to appreciate all the tiny things and how to live in the moment.
It is tough to describe as I feel my description only skims the surface of the depths that it reaches. There is so much to think about and ponder and process.
I would recommend it to anyone who is looking to connect with themselves and within themselves. This book enables you to understand, in relatively simple terms, how to go about doing that.
This is not a book to be rushed, but to be savoured.
