Your Aura and Your Chakras

In this book I learned a lot about releasing old thoughts and breaking unconsciously made vows and agreements. I would wake up in the middle of the night and early morning breaking them. This was a great way for me to release alot of baggage in a quick effective way. The only criticism I have of the book is that it seemed like the author had some heavy opinions about life that could have been left out.

More information on her current views

Karla is trying to bridge the gap between what she sees as two cultures. It's true that she's no longer a believer in many aspects of new age thinking, but it's not like she's suddenly switched religions and now rejects everything she used to believe. She argues that critical thinking and scientific method are valuable, and need to be brought into the New Age world-view.

(..) I only used the rating system because I had to, I have NO experience with the book in question.

No longer believes...

Karla McLaren now realises that she was mistaken and misdirected in her belief in "New Age", "Spiritual" and other "mystical ideas." She has realised that the scientific method is the correct way and that the books she has written are pure bunk and has disowned them. She's now trying to figure out how to make new-age thinkers give up thier beliefs and embrace skepticism and science. Karla McLaren feels that she has badly mislead and hurt, more than helped, the people who have read her books.

As she has written: "I'm not really sure how to introduce myself, except perhaps with this paraphrase: "I have seen the enemy, and she is me." and "I've now studied enough skeptical and scientific information about paranormal abilities and events to question many of the precepts upon which my work was based. More important, I've seen enough to understand firsthand the real costs of the New Age."

I hope new age believers will listen to what she has to say now - it will be the most important thing you ever do.
