Review of Within
It is no secret that women have been constantly put down and seen as less than they are in different spheres of their lives. Women who have had issues while growing up tend to be confused and lose their way in life, coasting through life aimlessly. Many have committed suicide because they cannot handle the depression and anxiety caused by various life issues. Within: Healing Through Sacred Feminine Archetypes-Awaken the Goddess Within by Courtney Hanson is a stunning work highlighting these issues. It proffers tips to self-growth. It is a very important book for all women to have and read.
Within by Courtney Hanson takes us through about fourteen different archetypes which exist in womanhood. Hanson walked us through her horrendous personal experience and birthed this beautiful piece. We learn about how alcohol affects a person, how being in a particular archetype's shadow affects us and affects the way we approach situations and solve issues. We get a lot of insight into the characters of Greek mythological creatures and how they relate to different archetypes. We also learn that taking care of the body is a very good thing.
This book had a lot of positive aspects. To start with, it was concise and easy to understand. It also went to the root of the matter. By telling her story, the author removed alienation from the book, instead making this book very relatable. As humans, a person who is imperfect and acknowledges their imperfection is easier to resonate with and encourages people to try to take the necessary steps to self-improvement. Also, the incorporation of characters, most of them present in the popular Greek mythology, is a very brilliant move. Also, the readers are enlightened about the stories of these popular Greek gods and goddesses. This book is designed to empower women and mold them into the women they have the potential to be. I found no errors in the book; it was exceptionally well edited.
I really liked this book. I searched in vain for a negative aspect but could find none. That is a testament to the brilliance of the author. I am honestly happy and thrilled that I came across this book.
I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars. I'm giving this book the perfect score because it was beautifully crafted. It is a book I feel compelled to read again and again. It belongs on every woman's bookshelves.
This book is suitable for everyone. It is highly recommended to all women, especially those downtrodden, lost, and are at the end of their tether. All in all, It is a must read for women.
