Summary: The "Five Wisdom Energies" are energizing
Review: If you really want to understand the interconnections between the mind and body, this is a must. Not only is it an easy read but I found myself wanting more. This is a great introduction into the "five wisdom energies" or "buddha families" that each of us embodies. What makes this even more helpful, is we not only display different energies in different areas of our lives, but Irini Rockwell teaches us how to identify and cultivate self-awarenss and improve communications as a result.
