“Reclaiming Your Divinity” could be the most important book for you to read. Why is it important that we claim--or reclaim--our divinity? The psychological and emotional damage of not knowing one’s divine reality is demonstrated in the sufferings of the world, resulting in lives half-lived, regretted or wasted. Whether you know it yet or not, awakening from this spiritual amnesia into your divine reality and destiny must be your central life’s work. Many do not realise their supernatural nature, or how to access the bountiful ongoing fount of grace, power, wisdom and love that come to those who awaken and claim their divinity. Ignorance or ignore-ance of this glorious inheritance denies one of a life lived in the plumbline of the ultimate living truth of one’s divine identity, reality, origin, and purpose. It also denies the world of the unique contribution desperately needed that only you, in your awakened state, can offer in that unique way to the collective knowledge, healing and spiritual progress of humanity, by the very genius of the Divine Light of your individual creative being. If you realised that you live both in spirit and in matter, that you have consciousness and being in both the heavenly and earthly realms co- existing here and now, that you have power in your Christ Self (your Real Self) to move in both realms, that in fact, you have a commission to intercede effectively for yourself and others between those two worlds, how would you live your life now? Knowing your divine identity will compel and empower you to become the fullness of who you truly are. *** “Excellent! Well written. Grabs you and you just want to keep reading it.

In a world where we're constantly told how to think, behave, and appear, it's easy to lose sight of our genuine selves, to give in and find ourselves living a fake or imitation existence where pleasing others takes precedence over personal truth. In "Reclaiming Your Authenticity: Steps to Avoid Losing Your True Self" Ian Bates, an experienced psychologist, peels back the layers of societal expectation and personal insecurity that hinder us from living as our true selves. Using examples from real-world clinical practice, practical exercises, and transformative insights, the book serves as a compelling guide for anyone who feels disconnected from their authentic self. The book is rooted in the philosophy that authenticity isn't a destination but an ongoing choice - a conscious decision to show up, be real, and let our true selves shine. The author exposes the hollow appeal of pretense, the fatigue of constant self-alteration, and the dangers of getting lost in the confusion of what others expect from you. This book is a strong and clear call to anyone who has ever felt pressured to conform, to dampen their uniqueness, or to sacrifice their selfhood for acceptance. It urges readers to let go of the exhausting attempts to please everyone and instead invest in cultivating and honoring their authentic selves. Because only by embracing our authentic selves can we draw in the right opportunities, form meaningful relationships, and achieve our most significant goals. Nobody finds true happiness until they reclaim their true, authentic, self. "Reclaiming Your Authenticity" is not just a guide to understanding the essence of authenticity. It's a transformative journey to self-discovery, self-acceptance, and the exhilarating freedom of being unapologetically you.

A road map for dismantling the fear and shame that keep you from living a free and authentic life. In the aftermath of stress, disappointment, and trauma, people often fall into survival mode, even while a part of them longs for more.

Having made the journey herself, in addition to guiding others as a clinical psychologist and ordained minister, Dr. Thema shows you how to reconnect with your authentic self and reclaim your time, your voice, your life. Signs of disconnection from self can take many forms, including people-pleasing, depression, anxiety, and resentment. Healing starts with recognizing and expressing emotions in an honest way and reconnecting with the neglected parts of yourself, but it can’t be done in a vacuum. Dr. Thema gives you the tools to meaningfully connect with your larger community, even if you face racism and sexism, heartbreak, grief, and trauma. Rather than shrinking in the face of life’s difficulties, you will discover in Homecoming the therapeutic approaches and spiritual practices to live a more expansive life characterized by empowerment, healthier relationships, gratitude, and a deeper sense of purpose.
