“The Art of Self Transformation, A Guide to Awakening is refreshment for the mind and soul. Immediately, I not only understood and nodded my head at the analogy of a seashell to a woman, but I felt it. Our own self-judgments pound at our being like the ocean pounds at the exterior of a seashell. Yet seashells are special, searched for and treasured by most of us. Laura words in this book help us know that we, as women, are to be treasured and treasure ourselves.” - Christine Frank Petosa, co-author of Jim’s Flight: One Soul’s Perspective of Heaven
