Reading the book is a meditation and a practice unto itself. I repeatedly experienced a deep vastness and silence that the words seemed to effortlessly float upon. The book is compassionately written with a deep reverence for that which cannot be expressed and yet powerfully points our awareness to it. I found myself looking forward to sitting down with the book every day and enjoying the centering effect it had on me. Mada’s telling of her story through her many lives is most inspirational. Reading it gave me understanding, hope, and encouragement for my own journey. It is exciting to read something that is such a beacon of transformation, healing, and consciousness.” — Jennifer Anderson, mental health worker   “In his book The Hero with a Thousand Faces, Jo seph Campbell writes: ‘A hero ventures forth from the world of common day into a region of supernatural wonder: fabulous forces are there encountered and a decisive victory is won: the hero comes back from this mysterious adventure with the power to bestow boons on his fellow man.’ Mada’s life journey took her on a long and rocky road of trials until she found the path that led her out of the dark forest – the path to consciousness. With this amazing book, which most of us can resonate with, Dalian has ‘returned from her adventure’ to shine her bright light along our road of trials to help each one of us find our own path out of the dark forest.” — Peter D. Marshall, filmmaker   “This book was a delight to read, with many ideas and concepts that were new to me. ‘Healing into Consciousness’ provided me with resonating insights and a fresh perspective into spiritual growth.

It is somehow magically filled with the love and graciousness that Eliza Mada Dalian emanates herself.   Each time I read it, I felt myself becoming more and more centered to the point where it seemed the words actually entered my being and filled me with light. As if that wasn’t enough, the book is absolutely packed full of practical, simple suggestions and exercises for healing that can be easily integrated into today’s lifestyle.   This is a book I will refer to over and over again. I will eagerly recommend it to all those I work with, as well as family and friends.” — Kim H. Roth, M.A., body-centered psychotherapist, yoga instructor
