Metaphysics is a branch of philosophy which studies reality, transcending what is physical. A philosophical model to explain the unexplainable. Whether you are new to Metaphysics, a long time student, or practitioner, this list is for you.
As a spiritual counselor for over 30 years, I’m sharing this list of my best recommendations for Metaphysical books that will help you go inside and go deeper into a space of knowledge, wisdom and understanding, which has no words, there you must experience what Metaphysics can only point you to.

This book reveals quantum physics theories and how to apply them to your life in order to live in harmony with Universal Laws.
Those of us who’ve been on this journey will be familiar with the Universal Law of Cause and Effect, otherwise known as the Law of Attraction. In a nutshell, Reality Transurfing is the rules to the game and how to surf those rules to get what you want. It’s the Law of Attraction on steroids.

I should warn you, it is not an easy read. However, if you can understand the model being presented, you discover how you are your own cause and effect. The image and the projection. It’s not only freeing, you can control the game.
My top takeaways of the book are having a better understanding of the Law of Balance, and how not to trigger the pendulums or tip the scales and wake up balancing forces which can give the opposite of what I want. And I appreciated a more in depth understanding of the power of my focus, awareness and attention.
Most eye opening and possibly why the law of attraction might not work for some, was learning about the theory of “importance”. Anything I give my attention to with importance can send me down a path I don’t want by activating the balancing forces. Just this alone has changed everything!
If you haven’t heard of Reality Transurfing by now, you are in for a treat!
