inspiring and positive - worth listening to!
I believe this book is the most positive and inspiring I’ve read / listened to on kids with the associated ‘labels’. View the world from their perspective and see their amazing ability as ‘infinite beings’. Loved how the chapters aren’t super lengthy as I listened to it in parts over a spread of time.

I have read and re read this book
I have read this book so many times. Each time I learn something new.
I have implemented some of the tools with my child and family. The results always make me stop and go wow it is true, it really does work. My 16month old and I rarely talk. We just communicate via energy. Also learning to acknowledge childrens talents and abilities really is a wonderful gift. They are incredible beings. Why not celebrate them.
I recommend reading this book. If you want to change for you and your child.

Left of centre
Very left of centre with some very informative, relative ideas. Begin with an open mind, keep going as it can draw out a little.

unspoken knowing
I loved that it articulated how I used to work with kids in pre school who were on the spectrum and mostly non verbal. I didn't realise how much they gravitated to me to assist them to play games with the other kids because I would read their minds and then let the verbal kids know how he wanted to play or not. Awesome book. Thankyou.

Leaning heavily on metaphysical theory
The narrative is hard to follow and I lost it at, 'using telepathy to talk to a clients wolf for them about their concerns with reincarnation' among other things

Pseudo science and woo
OCD is a debilitating mental Illness yet these authors group it in with ADHD and Autism. Yes ,all three share neural pathways, share symptoms, and frequently co-occur, but OCD cannot be explained by a social model of disability and to suggest otherwise is a serious disservice to those who suffer.

Rubbish!
I am sad to know that I paid good money to be told that kids can (psychically) pull answers to test questions from the teacher's head !
