Rosemary is a wonderful writer
Some people say this book is a waste of time and that you can make things happen by thinking about it. These people are too short sighted to look inside themselves and believe. Rosemary talks about being "at home". I believe that is half of the struggle is believing and being conscious of our surroundings. I've had trouble with the exercises in the book. They are intensive and are not able to be done quickly. They aren't easy and they're not meant to be. Learning about ourselves is never easy. For me, just picking up the book and reading it, I've had the strangest sensations. I e-mailed Rosemary about it and she said many people have written to her expressing similar things. Don't expect miracles like being able to freely talk to loved ones who have passed, but expect insight into yourself and your life and the possibilities of the afterlife as Rosemary tells it. I recommend this book for anyone willing to believe in her writings in "The Eagle in the Rose" and the "Proud Spirit". This book is definitely worth a try. I am definitely a believer now.

Kept me reading!
After reading the reviews here on Amazon, I almost didn't purchase this book. However, I couldn't stop thinking about it and decided I would buy it anyway. I sure am glad I did! The book was inspiring, interesting, intriguing and well-thought out. I have not read any other books by Rosemary Altea, but after seeing her interview on "Larry King Live" I was interested in the topic. I felt that her personal stories added a lot to the book and kept it moving forward. I appreciate her honesty in saying that taking control of your openness to the spiritual world (i.e., through her excercises) can take a long time to develop. I think a lot of people hope to read a book like this and instantly be able to communicate with the spirit world - but she sets your expectations correctly. Anyone looking for guidance and a clearer understanding of what it is like to communicate with the spirit world, should read this book.

Good, not great.
I've reached the final chapter of this book and i have to say that i'm quite underwhelmed. It does make various good points here and there, and perhaps things you will remember for a long time to come. However, there are so many other books that can be bought with 10 times as much profound information and half the price.So i would recomend this if you want to open your mind a little, but not if you're an expert on the spirituality subject.
