Found this one really intriguing, and thought-provoking, too. Many of these questions are ones I have already asked myself when I started my spiritual journey, but it never hurts to have a refresher at any point in our journey. As such, I believe this book will help a beginner on their spiritual journey, as well as the seasoned traveler who could still do with a refresh from time to time

Great book, shows a plethora insights and stories for sparking change in your life, would highly recommend, Can't wait for more books from this author.

A short read, but still powerful with 108 questions for self-reflection. I bookmarked multiple passages from the book to refer to again and again. This would be a particularly helpful book for inflection points during the year, such as the new year or end of year or when you're making a big decision.

What a wonderful book! Spark Change was inspiring and thought provoking. I took my time reading it and journaled the suggestions.
After the craziness of this past year I was very receptive to change. I found the insights and excercises truly helpful. I was very receptive to changing . I even shared some of the excercises with my fiance. I actually do feel like Spark Change has sparked a change within me.
Thanks to the author and Net Galley for my copy to read and review. I can't recommend this book enough!

In Spark Change, yoga therapist Jennie Lee provides nine questions in each of twelve themed chapters to help you identify shifts that can change your life profoundly. Themes include change, values, beliefs, willingness, lessons, accountability, acceptance, inspiration, knowing, love, purpose, and mastery. Each chapter opens with a discussion of that theme, and each question is accompanied by discussion of its significance and advice for how to work with that question. I appreciated that each of the questions is listed in the Table of Contents.

If you’ve done a lot of personal growth work, then most of this material will be familiar. If you haven’t spent much time contemplating how to live in alignment with your values, then this is a fine place to start.

This is best read slowly, with plenty of time to work through the suggested inquiries and exercises. The author suggests working through each chapter in the provided order to maximize personal evolution, but you could also skip around and focus on whichever theme appeals most. This is a book you can return to often, because your answers to many of these questions will change over time.

My only real objection to this book is that the author was a bit pushy with her own spiritual beliefs. Since I was expecting a book of questions, I would have preferred not to read the author’s own beliefs about Source, divine nature, soul perception, and a loving Maker stated as though they are unquestionable facts. I strongly disagree with her assessment that, “all of the illness, poverty, and disadvantage that we suffer are due to a transgression of divine law in this or a past life.”

I recommend this book for anyone interested in living more intentionally who will not be too annoyed by the author expressing her own beliefs.

I was provided an unproofed ARC through NetGalley that I volunteered to review.

I got a review copy of this book via NetGalley. I really loved the book. The book is a collection of 108 questions divided in 12 broad topics. Yes, there is a reason why there are 108 questions (108 is considered an important number in some philosophical and religious constructs).

What I really liked about this book:

1} Jennie has really considered our lives from various angles and has come up with a comprehensive set of questions that we need to think about if we really want to drive lasting change in our lives.
2} I am right now in the middle of sparking change in my personal life and so attempted to answer all the different questions that Jennie has listed. Already answered 75 of them and there is so much more clarity now in what I want to achieve, why I want to achieve it, how do i feel about it. I personally feel that this simple activity of thinking about and reflecting on the questions can serve as a significant tool in our personal transformation journey.

What would I have done differently:

1} I would have probably included a few more why questions at the end of a lot of questions that she already has. This forces us to dive a bit more deeper to uncover the deeper need that usually just lurks in the background and when brought out in the light, has the potential to spark transformational change..
2} In the physical copy of the book, I would create some space for people to answer each question. This might encourage people to actually respond to the questions.

If you are in the process of reinventing yourself, this is a book you should not only read but also sit down and answer the questions that Jennie raises.
