Real Magic

August 10th, 2009


I’ve had the book “Real Magic” by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer on my nightstand for these first 10 days of August. I’ve not gotten all that far into it. Mike was home on vacation from August 3rd thru August 9th and we were working late nights on our little remodeling project.

I have, however, read 70 pages of this 323 paged book and so far, it is surprising to me how Wayne can explain things the way he does. I get to talking about God and the Universe and LOA and metaphysics and I get all excited and I kind of subject jump as things occur to me. I can’t seem to streamline my thoughts. I think this happens to me because I’m still new to it all and I’m still VERY excited and awed. Although by “new to it all” I mean less that 10 years and I’ve been this excited about it since day 1 so maybe that’ll never go away.

Anyway, my younger brother is only 22 and he’s right at the beginning of his Spiritual journey. He’s seeking. It’s a beautiful thing really. I’ve watched the poor kid struggle with himself his whole life. It’s heartwarming to see him finding his way out.

I’ve decided that this is the book for him! I just saw him last week and one of the first things he asked me is if I could recommend a good book for him. I explained to him that I knew plenty of wonderful books, but that I wasn’t sure if he was in a place where they’d do him any good. Spirituality is a very long path that spans your entire lifetime. The books that make an impact on you will change depending on the place your in on the path. I’ve been on this path for nearly 10 years longer than him so it stands to reason that the books I read wouldn’t touch him in nearly the same way.

I’ve had Real Magic on my book shelf waiting to be read for about 10 months now. Funny that I finally pick it up in a time when I don’t have time to read it but my brother comes looking for a book. And 70 pages of reading has told me that THIS is the perfect read for him.

So, here’s my review of the first seventy pages of the book “Real Magic” by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer.

My baby brother has been very lost. He hates himself. He never believes he’s good enough.

I believe that this book will make a massive impact on his life. I think this would be a WONDERFUL book to give to anyone who is just starting to find their Spiritual footing. Wayne Dyer just has a way with words. This is one of his older books and it’s clear to me that he was in the more beginning stages of his own Spirituality when he wrote it. Again, I say beginning, I mean less than 10 years. I know… that’s a big beginning. But we’re talking about you entire life span. Ten years is only a fraction.

If you know someone who is struggling or just starting out… or even someone you think might be ready to take a step but you’re not sure how to approach the subject… THIS IS THE BOOK! I do believe that Wayne Dyer has nailed the explanation of Real Magic and how it’s accomplished!


August’s new book will be:

“The Way of the Wizard – Twenty Spiritual Lessons for Creating the Life You Want” by Deepak Chopra.
I LOVE Deepak Chopra and I can’t wait to start reading this book!!
