The 21-Day Consciousness Cleanse (2009) - Plot & Excerpts
I followed the cleaning up to day 8. I like questions in the exercises that made me think about the past. I picked up the book because I thought it’s great to detox your mind and find why some bad behaviors that I like to walk away from as an adult keep coming back. Then book turned very cultish, but out of curiosity I kept reading it without following the exercises. Up until day 8 I kept taking words about God and divine in the way that it’s within each person and there no need to look further for guidance in life. But then sentence like “God can do for me what I cannot do for myself” and exercises to ask out loud God why I am here made me realize I am not buying it, I am the worse cult follower and should just give the book back to the library. A step-by-step approach to ridding yourself of negative and toxic thoughts, patterns, actions, beliefs, and whatever else is holding you back from being your most complete, with the help of what I call your Source and what Debbie calls God. Her take on cleansing your consciousness of negativity is clear and meaningful, but her style may turn off some readers. For instance, heavy use of the language of addiction and recovery, taken from AA and such. Also, many formal prayers using "thou" and "thy," which may work for some people but is too prim and proper for my taste.But her deep passion for God and her great respect for her readers shines through ~ this could be a life-changing book for someone who's new to going within, is feeling utterly stuck in life, or has lost faith.
