Trust Your Vibes: Secret Tools for Six-Sensory Living Paperback – March 15, 2005

When I first picked up this book, I wasn't sure what to think. It seemed vague, nebulous, and a totally unfocused way to go about training your intuition. I got about a third of the way through and put it down and went on to other books which were much more the "heavy hitter" style of rigid exercises.After about a year, I've picked it back up again, and now all I'll say is that this book is really filled with great stuff and very, very good advice. Ms. Choquette says many of the things that my indigenous teachers say, and she says it in simple and straightforward language. I think that I didn't like this before because I wasn't really ready to process the information that the book contains; I literally could not absorb it. After much study under other teachers (who all basically say many of the same things as Ms. Choquette), this information is seeping into me like lovely tea into water.Secret #31 which deals with the 4 expressions of the heart center is just dynamite and has given me a lot to think about with my own clients. In the first *day* of keeping a "vibes journal", I began seeing how my vibes were coming to me, and how precise and accurate they are. I also began seeing the ways I'm getting information that I had not been noticing or cataloging before now. Secret #26 really says it all: "The basis of clairvoyance is to study what's really present without projection, distortion, sentimentality, or fear. In other words, what's really there? This kind of lucid and objective point of view invites you to move to a deeper level of seeing; it engages you to look at life from your spirit, rather than looking from your ego." This book delivers on that.I like Ms. Choquette's style and easy delivery, and now I am seeing the value and importance of a gentler approach to this subject.

Sonia Choquette holds out the promise of a place where you are free. Where the spirit within you can emerge and you can actually be happy in this troubled world. But you have to follow your 6th sense, live by your intuition and your spirit, not by your ego and your 5 senses, as the ego causes pain--anger, jealousy, resentment, but the spirit is loving, forgiving and healing. Using examples from her clients, Sonia illustrates how people who trusted their vibes were able to free themselves from unhappy and confining situations, enjoy life and experience peace.Writing with clarity and honesty, this down to earth pychic also has a great sense of humor, and never allows you to take yourself too seriously.Instead of worrying and fretting over every little thing, which your ego and your reason urge you to do, she advises you to be lighthearted, spontaneous, and to go with the flow. By living in the spirit, doing what you want to do, and not what others would have you do, your life can turn around and you can become the person you were meant to be.

What a wonderful book.I admit it wasn’t at all what I was expecting, but it was a pleasure to read. Very simple, joyful, clear tips for living life. I would say this should be a must read for everyone. The tools offered are ideal for anyone looking to live a life that is more in tune with the universe.Her book The Psychic Pathway offers more if you are looking to hone your psychic abilities. But I’d say none of that can happen without opening oneself up to playfulness, love, Joy, and spirit — which this book helps one do.The book just makes you feel good.

I first read this book quite a while ago (about five years ago) and some of the concepts were over my head then. I love rereading this book, because it's not only grounding, but it's also validating as well, as I've had a chance to integrate most of the practices into my life. I have been sick for the past few days, and I'm rarely sick. Rereading this book helped me to know where I got out of sync and out of balance in the first place.Sonia is like a trusted friend (especially if you read her autobiography Diary of a Psychic). She has had decades of being a spiritual powerhouse, and she mentors you on how you can be the same. This is a great book. Loved reading it years ago and love rereading it now. This book is chicken soup for my soul. I especially liked her teachings on remaining calm in the midst of chaos. Being empathetic, I tend to take on what isn't mine. Being calm is what keeps me grounded and ensures my success as my vibes lead me where to go and what next to do and what to avoid.Thank you, Ms. Choquette!

The cover is so visually appealing! It looks like a rainbow that's all sparkling -- a great image for all the good things and ideas we can access when we tune into our intuition...protection, help on making a decision, help on getting healthy and staying healthy. The book is easy to read and understand, and filled with practical, down to earth ways to get in touch with intuition and use it to guide ourselves in life. Stories of regular people who face their problems and how they either ignored their intuition or followed it, and that affected the way they handled the problem, keep it believable and interesting to read. A majority of the book explains down to earth ways to cultivate and work with intuition that are easy to do and that really work. A great book!

Enjoyed the read

As with other Sonia Choquette books, I feel compelled to post a review when I'm in the process of reading. I'm about halfway through this book and love it.Because there is a lot of negativity that has been surfacing on a large social scale, and it is scary and sad, the tone of this book feels especially important. Even though, being human, I think it can be hard to avoid the "fight or flight" instinct, living from a place of love is crucial, even when it is a process to learn how to do this.To me this feels a bit like a navigation manual, and that is very helpful!!!
