Spiritual Movie Review:
Broken Hill |
Since I reviewed this movie while I was a guest on Spiritual Cinema Circle you may have already heard my thoughts about it. :) That said, if you aren't already a member then here's just a little bit of what I thought about "Broken Hill..."
First, this is definitely a movie about finding your calling in life. It tackles issues such as, "How do we follow our dream when others try to squash it? When people doubt us? When people use and abuse us?" Not fun topics, but if you've followed your dreams then you know there's always barriers to entry, so to speak.
And since the main character's passion is music, this movie has many similarities to August Rush. It does go a different direction though, integrating themes of non-judgment and compassion which help fuel the movie's heartfulness.
Unfortunately, this movie isn't publicly available (unless you already received it through Spiritual Cinema Circle so you'll have to wait until it either gets a mainstream distributor or gets a small independent viewing near you. When it does though, I highly recommend you go – this movie gets a solid "Must See" recommendation from me. |

Spiritual Book Review:
The Wizard's Wish by Brad Yates |
"The Wizard's Wish" is, in my opinion, a revolutionary book because it introduces the power of tapping (EFT) to children in a fun, informational, and easy to understand way. It shows how children (and their parents) can quickly and easily work with their emotional states and bring more peace and happiness into their lives through a better understanding of tapping.
Fortunately the story isn't too long, nor too short, and the playfully colorful illustrations keep the subject matter lighthearted enough and engaging for children to stay focused. I particularly appreciate that there are deeper spiritual messages shared within this book, such as our ability to be conscious of and heal our emotional states, generosity and
If you're not already familiar with EFT / tapping, at the end of the book is a brief explanation and tutorial that will help you gain more clarity. Alternatively, you can also watch "The Tapping Solution" (though that's definitely not for kids).
I know I'll be reading "The Wizard's Wish" to my son as he grows older, so that wherever and whenever he goes, he can have advanced consciousness tools at his fingertips. |
