A LIBRARIAN’S ORIENTATION

What this book explores

Transpersonal psychologist and nondual teacher Bonnie Greenwell describes spiritual awakening as a process that may include shifts in identity, energy, perception, emotion, and ordinary functioning. She offers practical guidance drawn from her personal experience and work with people who understand their changes through an awakening framework.

EDITORIAL NOTE

Why it’s in the Library

Travelers often search with the word awakening rather than the language of theology or psychiatry. This accessible guide meets that language directly and names both beauty and disruption, while its placement beside research and clinical resources prevents one interpretive frame from standing alone.

Good starting place if…

You understand an experience as spiritual awakening or kundalini and want a readable guide to integration, daily life, and common difficulties.

Know before you begin…

Greenwell largely accepts awakening and subtle-energy interpretations from within a transpersonal and nondual framework. The book cannot determine whether unusual sensations, perceptions, sleeplessness, voices, or impaired functioning have a spiritual, psychiatric, neurological, medical, substance-related, or mixed cause. Seek qualified assessment when safety or functioning is affected.
