Customer Reviews

A rare experiential book.

"Lions in wait" is like a sequel to "Facticity a door to mental health and beyond", with lots of practical inputs and beautiful language patterns. In the Factícity book, Ragini-Elizabeth-Michaels explains the method beautifully. In this second book, you find applications that allow you to dwell in language, images, metaphors that seem to nourish you from deep within. As a seeker on the path, the eastern concepts can at times be almost annoying or too foreign. What we need are books like these that allow for the western mind to experience what eastern concepts of peace and tranquility are really about and experience the effects amidst our day to day madness. This endeavor may seem impossible or farfetched; the paradoxical interventions in this book however make it available. A rare experiential book.

Love this book!

This book is a mini bible for anyone doing hypnotherapy or psychotherapy. Ragini's story telling is poetic and the use of hypnotic language is elegant and inspiring! I will read this book at night when I have an issue that I can't get "out of my head". Her easy way of addressing the issues and brining the reader back to "themselves" is brilliant. Buy it for your work buy it for your own read.

Talking to the unconscious mind

This collection of beautiful trance dialogues amazed me. They are written in the context of a female storyteller confronted by the questions of her male student. She consistently brings him back into dialogue with his unconscious so that he can have deep experiences of such truths as the inevitability of change and the reality of duality. With each inner conversation both the student and the reader relax more and more into peace with "what is." I highly reocommend this book.
