Endorsements and Reviews
I found it to be an introspective work that is a balm for the soul for anyone searching for the truth and answers to life’s difficult questions
” It’s a rear 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 for anyone searching for the truth and answers to life’s difficult questions, and truly look forward to the rest of Christian de la Huerta’s Calling All Heroes Series. It inspired me to buy his previous book, Coming Out Spiritually: The Next Step.”
The teachings and practices he lays out here are lessons appropriate to discovering holiness
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.
I could feel his encouragement jumping off the pages saying “I believe in you!
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!
