A Magical Year – review (AD)

A Magical Year – review (AD)

27th January 2021 1 By Rachael Stray

I was kindly given a paperback copy of A Magical Year by Susanna Bailey in exchange for an honest review*.


A Magical Year book blurb

What better way to start or end the day than by immersing yourself in a poem, thought, or reflection from the Eastern and Western mystics and sages.

Passages featured have been carefully selected to feed your soul, awaken your spirit, and tap into your innate wisdom using inspiration from across the ages, as relevant today as it was when it was first written.

Broken into 8 sections, it takes you through the cycles of the year: Beginnings, Purification, Renewal, Fertility, Abundance, Balance, Gratitude, and Endings.

Each section opens with creative prompts and questions that invite you to delve deeper into your own self-inquiry process.

Choose a section that feels relevant, work through from 1-365, or just dip in whenever you want.

This collection of inspirational insights will support you in building a daily spiritual practice to nourish and nurture your soul each and every day.


My overall thoughts on A Magical Year

I feel like I read A Magical Year just at the right time to pick me up after a very challenging year, 2020!

A Magical Year is absolutely perfect for the side of your bed or the coffee table, so you can pick it up and flick through it at your leisure.

It’s split into eight sections which are designed to take you through the cycles of the year.

Each of section opens with creative prompts and questions.

You can choose a section that feels relevant for you at a particular time or work through from 1-365, or just dip in whenever you want which is what I really like about this book.

This is the kind of book which can help you to think creatively and openly and give you a bit of a mood boost.

If you want to practice mindfulness this will be a great addition to your library.

I felt more uplifted and positive after reading this book and I will dip in and out of it over this year as and when I need to.

A huge thank you to Trigger Publishing for sending me a copy of A Magical Year, the book is available in paperback and e book.
