Book Review The Desire Map: A Guide to Creating Goals with Soul By Danielle LaPorte More than a book, this is a life changing movement with workshops across the country. We’re taught about goals all wrong, we’re not chasing a goal, we’re chasing a feeling, we hope the goal will give us. We go after stuff we want to get, or accomplish, hoping to be fulfi lled, but it’s backwards. “Goals with Soul” focuses on how you want to feel fi rst, then how will you get there? The Desire Map is a holistic life-planning tool that turns ambitions inside out to offer an inspired way to manifest. • Identify “core desired feelings” in every life domain: livelihood, lifestyle, body, wellness, creativity, learning, relationships, society, essence and spirituality • Create “Goals with Soul” to generate those feelings • Find happiness within and the rest will follow It’s a fun book to read in Book Clubs or with friends because you will have revelations you’ll want to share and you’ll be enlightened by their A-Ha moments, too! My favorite was “Ease Up on Expectations”, release attachment to outcome. You think you know what your goal is going to look and feel like, but leave room for an unexpected surprise of possibly even greater goodness! “Do Less, Get More” because “hard work we are obsessed with is overrated!” I found it fun to fl ip through this book, try on different concepts, do the activities as they called to me, maybe because I’m a busy working Mom. If you have 5 minutes, you can tune in to fi nd powerful tools to create your dreams in the best way possible with Soul Power! This is a book to go to when you’re burnt out or bored, ignite your passion once more, even if it’s just reading the 150 Positive Feelings or reminding yourself to “Show up & Shine!” INCREASE YOUR ENERGY. ADAPT TO STRESS WITH EASE. HEAL   &   FEEL ALIVE. Book your initial visit today and receive a Complementary immune boosting essential oil roller! D R.
