This book lifts the veils of mystery around embodied spirituality and sovereignty. What happens to our minds, hearts and bodies when we allow the alchemical process of self-realization? How does it affect our lives and relationships, and how can we navigate through the dark night of the Soul into the dawn of enlightenment? These are some of the themes covered in this book. Whilst each path is unique and personal, there are certain tools that can be supportive on this bizarre adventure. In addition to such tools of clarity and inspiration, the book includes interviews with modern masters, awakened humans who are walking their paths of self-realization whilst living very human, 21st century lives. Above all, the purpose of this book is to support the reader in connecting with and embodying their inner voice of wisdom and mastery.

I highly recommend Kim's book!
I highly recommend Kim's book! It is well written, very clear, down to earth, with practical tips, but never tries to force an opinion on you. So enjoyed reading it. Thank you, dear Kim! - Teresa Kuna.

A practical book that I highly recommend
This is the kind of book that you should read when going through awakening towards enlightenment! It explains in a very simple way, what awakening is. One of the main points is going from self-improvement to self-acceptance. The human will never be perfect, but your soul is and has always been. The author points out, that awakening is not something you do for fun. It rips you apart, shakes your world, not as a punishment, but to let you release everything that keeps you from being less than you are. It is a practical book, tells you what to expect on your journey, and what to watch out for. It is reassuring to know that being totally tired, depressed or feeling empty without any passion anymore is “normal” when you are going through awakening. Each person has her or his own path to enlightenment. We can’t compare, but we can share our experiences and maybe inspire each other. I highly recommend this book! - Anne Maribo Andersen.

An interesting and well written book
Getting real about Enlightenment is my first experience with a ‘spiritual‘ book. It is a self-help book for people who are discovering their spirituality, facing the challenges that come with self-transformation. It is well structured and leads you ever deeper into the mysteries of enlightenment. The author gives insight into her journey of spirituality and the message is clear: you’re struggling, but it can be done, you’re not alone and the journey is worth it. The interviews with people who have already come far on their journey round off this guide. All in all, an interesting and well written book for everybody interested in the subject. - Angela Jorzik.
