Within each chapter Wendy presents sections to that chapter, that are both educational and well structured. In Chapter 1 in the section “Preparations” the author writes “ A Lightworking circle offers a sense of belonging and a warm, cohesive, safe and friendly atmosphere to gain information.” This really is the core concept of this book. What a Lightworker Circle is and how one can explore healing and spiritual transformation within one. I enjoyed how the book is written not only as a guide but also as a teaching mechanism. The author writes “The aim of Spiritual insight is to maximize the strengths of each person in order to create a powerhouse of dynamic wisdom”. As I was reading this book I found her focus on individuality within circle communication really appealing because it helps you learn as you read and does not just focus on group work exclusively, although that is the main theme.

Wendy’s focus upon Lightwokers in Chapter 2 is rather enlightening. She explains the differences between lightworkers and Anti- lightworkers here. This was informative to me because Lightworkers often have a great aim and purpose behind their spiritually based work. I particularly enjoyed this line. “Generally a lightworker is any authentic, trustworthy and kind person, as Lightworking is a way of life, not just a belief and we need to show how our beliefs result in actions.” The author makes a valid point, that it is not just enough to think of oneself as lightworker, it is very important to live your belief as well. Time is also discussed in this chapter and great reverence is given to how it is respectful to group members and the Spirit world to value time and keep to set time boundaries, as this helps the circle flow better and opens communication at set times with the Spirit world. Wendy tells readers how to build an altar and efficiently utilize one within a circle. I have always thought altars to be a wonderful way to communicate with Spirit and honor a sacred space, so I was pleased to see this mentioned in the book.
