Customer Reviews

I give this book 5 pentacles and it's worth it

The Body Sacred is an amazing book which should be on every Wiccan's/Pagan's bookshelf. This is a book in which so many readers can relate. I thought, "OMGoddess, she's writing MY story, MY thoughts, answering all MY questions, and she is doing it with a wonderful sense of humor!" I recommend this book to everyone.

Dianne Sylvan's books are wonderful!

An excellent book! Like Ms. Sylvan's other book "The Circle Within", this book is well researched, easy to understand, and thought provoking. I love her books!

FINALLY!

My spirituality can have humor in it! Thank Goddess for that! I love how approachable Dianne Sylvan makes her books and the material she so genuinely shares with her readers. She honestly conveys her ideas and experiences in a way that is easily identified with and reminds us all of the potential our paths hold once we make peace with the idea of perfection. She is a true daughter of The Great Weaver, herself expertly weaving a series of cords between our bodies and our minds that supports the kind of spiritual growth every advancing Pagan woman needs. Her ideas are simple in their truth and reality, but this is not a book that will leave you bored. On the contrary! I haven't felt so alive with potential or so certain of my direction in life as I have after picking up this book. It's so much more than just a new age book on feeling and living a spiritual life, though it does live up to that promise. She shows you, in real life terms, how to make your body your altar and she does it without coming across preachy or assuming. It's truly like sitting down with your best friend.

Our Inner Goddess

This book is so important to women of all ages and shapes. Dianne Sylvan demonstrates how we are pelted by media with impossible body standards. She reminds us to love ourselves despite our imperfections because we are Goddesses in our own right. She explains that self-love has to come so that we may enjoy our bodies to their full potential and do the work of God and Goddess.

Can I give it more than 5??

This book is amazing. It will make you laugh, cry, and most of all think, To be given the tools to look within and see your Inner Goddess is truly the gift of the world. This book has changed my life! Thank the Goddess for Dianne Sylvan for putting her self out there and allowing us to see the real her and the real Goddess that is in all of us. The rituals are moving,the meditations are beautiful. I will recommend this book to every woman that I come across, it is truly time for the revolution.
