A kinesiologist, Bronwyn also includes the acupoint and meridian associated with each goddesses\u2019 purpose. These points are on the pathways along which chi (the body\u2019s life force) moves.

I like being able to connect a point on the body that triggers healing I can do myself, but I found it difficult to be touching a body part, holding the book, and focusing on the exercise, which has questions and often activities. I think I would get more out of listening to a recording of myself reading the instructions, with appropriate pauses. Because I do not regularly work with many goddesses, and have made up some as needed (Goddess of Laughter, Goddess of Green Lights, Goddess of GPS, Goddess of the Perfect Comeback) so I was happy to see a Goddess of Old Ghosts, Goddess of the Safe Haven, and others to address specific needs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Given the multifaceted information provided for each goddess, readers can choose how deeply they want to immerse themselves in this practice.
