It is a rare occurrence indeed when a book not only delivers on its message but also gives you practical, straightforward and incredibly wise ways in which to apply the teachings put forth in Awakening the Soul of Power. I found it to be an introspective work that is a balm for the soul of anyone searching for truth and answers to life’s difficult questions, and truly look forward to the rest of Christian de la Huerta’s amazing Calling All Heroes series. It inspired me to purchase his previous book, Coming Out Spiritually: The Next Step.

I have had the privilege of knowing Christian for over 30 years and have come to respect and admire his integrity that shines through in all that he does and attempts to do (including his breathwork, which I have profited richly from). In this book he talks about our becoming the “heroes” we are called to be. The theological word for hero is saint. The teachings and practices he lays out here are lessons appropriate to discovering holiness once again—not only our capacity for it but everyone’s capacity for it.

Awakening the Soul of Power is filled with deep ideas shared in a wonderfully playful way. Christian de la Huerta is that rare teacher who can explain serious and demanding concepts with such a light touch that we can laugh at our own foibles. He conveys so much kindness to the reader, so much acceptance and compassion, I could feel his encouragement jumping off the pages saying “I believe in you! You can do this!” I’m so touched by his beautiful invitation to imagine what life would be like if we believed the Universe is conspiring to support us. Wow!

I have known Christian for 25 years, throughout which he has consistently offered deep healing and transformational retreats and workshops all over the world. This book, the first of a series that encapsulates his work, is clear, insightful and supportive to anyone trying to make sense of their lives and the often-subconscious ways in which we sell out on our power.

I have known Christian for 30 years and have always been touched and inspired by his wisdom, insight and generosity. This beautiful new book is filled with clear and profound teachings, as well as practical, easy to use exercises. I’m sure it will inspire and support you to be a better you, in every area of life.

Christian de la Huerta has been one of those visionaries that I believe to have a real understanding of what is called upon within each of us to make change. In his new book, Awakening the Soul of Power, he has created a blueprint for self-awareness that will make each of us a hero or heroine in the battle to not only change personally but in the process change the planet. Another remarkable book from a remarkable man.

Timely to the point of clairvoyance, Awakening the Soul of Power offers a blueprint to rectify the abuses of power that plague us as individuals and as a society. It delineates how finding balance within and between us will lead to a more equitable world. Christian provides thoughtful, practical guidance for accessing our personal power and improving our lives!

I know and trust Christian. During one process he led a group of us through, I had a profound experience that changed the way I think about my body, breath, and life. I’m excited for you to have this book in your hands, and for you to experience the powerful exercises in it which can change your life.

Awakening the Soul of Power is a beautiful invitation into self-observation and transformation—a deep dive into the psyche of why we “do what we do” and how to shift our patterns of self-limitations and false beliefs. As a fellow author and transformational coach, I would highly recommend this practical and easy to follow guide to awakening to your authentic self.

In these challenging and difficult times, Christian shows us the empowerment that lies within to be a beacon of light for others on this planet. His writing brings an increased level of self-awareness and self-honesty and allows us to integrate the disparate parts of our self. Christian’s book is a heroic work that calls forth, and inspires, the true hero in each of us.

In Awakening the Soul of Power, author Christian de la Huerta takes us through a transformational journey of self-discovery. Filled with inspiring quotes and powerful action steps, he summons us to shed our false ego-driven self and embrace our hidden authentic and heroic self. Thought-provoking and captivating, this is a must-read for anyone seeking to fulfill their potential!

In this first book of the Calling All Heroes trilogy, de la Huerta offers a practical and powerful path toward profound transformation. Awakening the Soul of Power is not a book of mere information, a book to work on; it is a book that works on us. The promise made in the book is well kept: “Embark on it. Embrace it. Dive into it. Trust. Your heroic quest will be supported.

Awakening the Soul of Power is the real deal: a guide to personal empowerment that can truly change lives. Christian’s writing style is easy and accessible, and he shares his compelling story with transparency and authenticity. But the real nugget of this series is the hands-on approach of a tangible road map through the process of personal transformation his work is designed to generate.

There is no one I know who is better suited to write this book on the healing of the soul from the tyranny of the ego than Christian de la Huerta. He’s an expert, having led retreats on the subject for more than 30 years. Christian gently, fiercely, and fearlessly guides the reader inexorably into the spiritual power of their own soul. It’s a book to read again and again. I can’t wait for the next two of the trilogy

I recommend that everyone heed Christian’s call to the inner adventure to explore within themselves the patterns, causes, and conflicts that hold them back from shifting into the powerful person they are at the core. We each can become the hero in our own lives to play our part in the expansion of consciousness for all.

I’ve followed Christian’s career as a public speaker, conference leader, courageous activist and author for more than 30 years. This is his magnum opus, a profound work exploring his favorite theme, “the stuff of heroes.” He had no idea when he began this work that an invisible virus would kill millions, bankrupt the world’s economy and make us doubt all the individuals and institutions we once trusted. If ever there was a time to explore our inner hero, it is now.

Reading this book will start you on a journey of the soul. The author takes you deep into every insecurity and misconception of what heroism, safety, and power really are. He leads you out of every area where you limit yourself into something greater, not only for you, but for all. If you are lost or struggling in any area of your life, this book will give you the tools to see your path clearly. A must-read for any spiritual seeker.

When in your lifetime have you seen more possibility of true change in our world of estrangement? When more have we needed to be heroic in our interactions with ourselves and others? I’ve known Christian for many years, and he’s the real deal. If you’re looking for someone to help you take the hero’s journey to self-realization, let him gently, lovingly, wisely guide you. He has me.

Christian de la Huerta’s powerful and illuminating book, Awakening the Soul of Power, is an uncompromising study on what it means to live heroically in the world. De la Huerta inspires us to step into our spiritual heroism by taking meticulous inventory of our inner world and deep responsibility for every action that we take. He leaves no stone unturned in helping the reader to examine all the ways in which the inherent foibles of the human being can keep us from stepping into the miraculousness of our potential, and he offers many powerful practices that teach us how to develop the hero within.

This extraordinary, life-changing book is a roadmap to respond to the call to be our full selves in the best way possible for the good of all beings and this amazing planet. It is a very important contribution to our personal and our collective healing and evolution, and it is just part one!

It’s a wonderful feeling to read a book that’s written to help you, where you feel the author’s passion bursting from within to achieve that goal. Christian leads you through stages. He gives you the background, asks questions, and provides practical solutions—so you’re not overwhelmed and don’t quit before you prove to yourself that you can. Read this book, commit to the power practices, and your life can transform.
