Toot's Book Reviews: Spotlight, Review, Author Interview & Giveaway: The Desire Factor: How to Embrace Your Materialistic Nature to Reclaim Your Full Spiritual Power by Christy Whitman

Book Blurb & Info

There is no limit to the amount of happiness that we, as human beings, can experience. There is no limit to how much love, laughter, excitement, or satisfaction we can feel. This universe is unendingly abundant, which means that it has the ability to yield to us whatever experiences we desire. Why, then, do some people manifest their desires so fluidly and naturally, while others are living lives of struggle, mediocrity, or quiet desperation?

Hard work alone does not guarantee a positive result. In fact, pushing forward with determination and effort when things are not going as planned usually only makes a bad situation worse. Energy – not action – is the source of all manifested things, and The Desire Factor is the definitive guide to achieving energy mastery.

The Desire Factor provides one of the most current, comprehensive, and easy to apply explorations into the realm of energy, and shows readers how – by purposefully calibrating the energetic frequency of their dominant thoughts, moods and expectations – they can bring any desire into physical form.

The book is built around 7 universal principles, each of which assists readers in connecting with and deliberately harnessing the divine energy stream that sources all things.

These are:

The Principle of Alignment
The Principle of Focus
The Principle of Joyful Expectancy
The Principle of Having
The Principle of Loving
The Principle of Surrender
The Principle of Action

Each principle builds upon the last one, and together, they provide a clear path – not just toward the manifestation of objects, experiences and conditions you desire to create in each important area of your life – but toward the personal evolution your desires are guiding you to embrace.

Toot's Review by Betty Bee

“Every desire that pulses through your veins and every idea that occurs to you as a result of this does so because the spiritual energy that sources you at your very core and connects you to All That Is-- whether you call it God, Goddess, Spirit, Source, or the Creator-- is seeking to experience and express itself through your body, your senses, your mind, and your perspective.”

Christy Whitman has created the definitive guide to letting your desires guide you to fulfillment. Whether or not you believe in God—or any type of Creator-- this book calls on you to consider the idea that your desires and wants are the divine speaking through you. Now, this applies to both big and small desires. In fact, one of the great features of this book is Whitman's reassurance that wanting things, even small things, is not a sin and not something that people should be shamed of.

A lot of times people (particularly women) can be thought of as shallow for desiring fancy clothes or expensive haircuts, but Whitman insists that the belief that desiring material things is bad stems from the idea that we are never going to be able to receive those things. That we are not destined for “the good life.” She insists that these desires are as valid as any other and that they are just as useful to bringing forward our true greatness.

Whitman has seven principals that she discusses in the book as things that she believes help the quest for seeking and empowering your own desire. These principals are things like, “The Principal of Focus,” “The Principal of Loving,” and “The Principal of Action” and each section is well thought out and easy-to-read.

I love a self-help book that doesn't feel all doom and gloom and this certainly fit that bill for me!

Author Interview with Christy Whitman by Betty Bee

Q: Please tell us something about The Desire Factor that is not in the summary. (About the book, character you particularly enjoyed writing etc.)

A: One of the most enjoyable, and really magical, aspects of writing a book is watching how the universe seems to conspire to provide the perfect examples to illustrate whatever information I’m intending to get across.

All of the stories about my success in working with these principles – as well as the success that my clients and friends have experienced using these techniques – are 100% factual, and many of these experiences unfolded within the yearlong period of time that I was writing the book.

For example, my girlfriend Brenda used energy work and specifically a process I call “feeling forward,” to transform her previously contentious relationship with her father. A coaching client, who I refer to in the book as ‘Nick,’ overcame a career-long habit of trying too hard to make things happen and manifested several meaningful firsthand experiences of the universe working on his behalf to line up the very connections and opportunities he was seeking. And of course, throughout my 25+ years of working with these energy mastery techniques, I have created results that seem miraculous to those who don’t yet understand the mechanics of deliberate creation. I included all of these stories in the book, in order to provide real life practical examples of how our thoughts really do become things.

Q: What writers have you drawn inspiration from?

A: Marianne Williamson and Dr. Wayne Dyer are two of my favorite all-time authors, and their teachings showed up in my life about 25 years ago, during a pivotal time in my own life when I was just beginning to learn about metaphysics.

Q: How long did it take you to complete?

A: It took a little over a year to complete The Desire Factor. As is common with the creative process, the book went through several different outlines and iterations before I finally found the structure that would deliver the message in the most powerful way.

Q: Tell us about your cover. Did you design it yourself?

A: I wanted the cover to include a lot of color movement because the book is all about energy mastery. My publisher provided some different options to choose from, which incorporated some beautiful artwork that I really resonated with. As my husband Frederic and I were looking through each design, he came up with the idea of listing some common things that people desire – things like prosperity, vitality, freedom, abundance, etc. – and embedding those words within the artwork. It was a great idea and I love the final result.

Q: What was your first job?

A: My first job was a working as a sales person at The Gap.

Q: What are you currently working on?

A: Right now, most of my focus is on preparing for the release of The Desire Factor in April of 2021. I have also developed a Desire Factor coaching certification course for those who want to become trained to incorporate energy mastery principles into their coaching practices.
